Lab Scoreboard

Apache Subversion (often abbreviated SVN) is a software versioning and revision control system distributed as open-source under the Apache License.

Evilcorp started taking project code backup on SVN as well. They had set up a dedicated server that initially contained an SVN project. The root repository for that project was present in the webroot folder so that the employees could download the code from the web server, as the company's SVN server was inaccessible due to some configuration issues.

Objective: Retrieve the SVN project code and answer the following questions:

  1. What is the password for the user named john?

  2. Is anonymous access to the code enabled? Answer as "yes" or "no" without quotes.

  3. What is the current revision number of the repository?

  4. Provide the contents of the secret flag file.

  5. Retrieve the secret flag present in the SQLite3 database.


Instructions:

  • This lab is dedicated to you! No other users are on this network :)

  • Once you start the lab, you will have access to a Kali GUI instance.

  • Your Kali instance has an interface with IP address 192.X.Y.2. Run "ip a" to know the values of X and Y.

  • The web server should be running on the machine having IP address 192.X.Y.3.

  • Do not attack the gateway located at IP address 192.X.Y.1


Verify:
1. What is the password for the user named john?
 
2. Is anonymous access to the code enabled? Answer as "yes" or "no" without quotes.
 
3. What is the current revision number of the repository?
 
4. Provide the contents of the secret flag file.
 
5. Retrieve the secret flag present in the SQLite3 database.
