OverTheWire Natas Level 0 -> Level 1 - Walkthrough

OverTheWire Natas Solutions

Introduction

In this level, I'll give you a walkthrough to the natas wargame Level 0 -> Level 1. We will utilize the shortcut key to open the source code of the webpage and then fetch the password.

Goal

Get the password for natas2. Catch is that the right click is disabled on the webpage.

Login details

URL - http://natas1.natas.labs.overthewire.org
Username - natas1
Password - g9D9cREhslqBKtcA2uocGHPfMZVzeFK6

Theory

As we saw in the Level 0 walkthrough, we can right click on the webpage and open the source code. However, in this level the right click is disabled. Therefore, we will use the shortcut key "Ctrl+U" to open the source code.

Similarly, we can open the "Inspect Element" using the "F12" key on the keyboard.

Solution

Open the URL in a browser. Enter the username and password mentioned above.

The below screen appears on successfully logging in that gives the message that right clicking is blocked.

Since right click is blocked, press "Ctrl+U" to open the page source code.

We can see that the password for natas2 is commented in the HTML source code.

This completes Level 1 walkthrough as we have got the password. Please post your questions and doubts in the comment section.
