This is from the Hackers Teaching Hackers HTH2020 CTF.
For this challenge, we are provided with this text:
I’m pretty sure that I backed up our hth instance properly. Can you take a look at the AWS EBS snapshots and check?
and this hint:
You will need an AWS account for this challenge. You can make one for free here: https://aws.amazon.com/resources/create-account/
I already had an account, so I logged into it and went to the EBS dashboard…
I then went to “snapshots” in the left navigation pane…
I then changed the search dropdown to “Public Snapshots” and did a seach for “hth”…
This yielded only on result. Look at that! the description field contained the flag…
