Arctic is fairly straightforward, however the load times on the web server pose a few challenges for exploitation. Basic troubleshooting is required to get the correct exploit functioning properly.

Hackthebox - Tartarsauce

TartarSauce is a fairly challenging box that highlights the importance of a broad remote enumeration instead of focusing on obvious but potentially less fruitful attack vectors. It features a quite realistic privilege escalation requiring abuses of the tar command. Attention to detail when reviewing tool output is beneficial when attempting this machine.
