It should become usual practice for you to check source code of the web site and so should you do now. However, after examining source you probably want find anything.
But caring programers and administrators of hackertest.net left us clue in the name of the html file you are viewing…Since the file is named included.htm one may consider searching for some include statement and indeed there is include statement in the body tag following is body tag:
<body bg="images/included.gif">
You now may notice that include for the background in HTML bg stands for background is included. Good idea is to follow trail and see if we can find anything interesting on the image.
Opening the image is simple just copy the text in between quotations and past it in URL after hackertest.net. URL should be as following: http://www.hackertest.net/images/included.gif. Do you notice small letters in the lower end of the screen let’s try reading them.
Interesting letters give us some username and password below:
Username: phat Password:jerkybar3
Now let’s try this out if these aquired information are fit for our login screen, go back and check it out.
Data fits continue on the next mission.
