⛳️ picoCTF2022 ~ whoop, my first CTF

- 1 min

It’s been a fun ride joining picoCTF2022. I found John Hammond shared on LinkedIn about it, encouraging that it’s beginner-friendly. And I jumped right into it, registered, and waited for the challenge to start.

There are 5 main categories: Web Exploitation, Cryptography, Forensics, Binary Exploitation, and Reverse Engineering. Each challenge has points ranging from 100 to 500, depending on its difficulty level. My strength, as of now, is Web Exploitation, so I decided to cover it first.

There are 12 challenges for Web Exploitation category, covering XSS, SQLi, Broken Access, and so on. Below is write-ups for each challenge.
