Goal
There’s a git repository reachable via SSH:
ssh://[email protected]:2220/home/bandit27-git/repo
Clone it from your local machine (not from within Bandit), then find the next password in the repository.
Hints
- Use the password for user
bandit27-git(same as bandit27). - After cloning, search for obvious files like
README. - If it’s not in the current branch, check git history.
Solution (click to reveal)
On your local machine:
mkdir -p ~/overthewire && cd ~/overthewire
git clone ssh://bandit27-git@bandit.labs.overthewire.org:2220/home/bandit27-git/repo bandit27-repo
cd bandit27-repo
ls -la
cat README
The repo content contains the password for Level 29.
Notes
- You can use
rg/grep -Rto search the repo for “password”.
