competition-linux-credential-pivot

competition-linux-credential-pivot is a skill for Codex from Asaiuta/reverse-workbench-skill. It costs 110 tokens per session (572 once invoked), scanned B, a copy of competition-linux-credential-pivot, MIT.

A specialized workflow for capture-the-flag challenges involving Linux credentials and movement between machines or services. It follows artifacts such as SSH keys, cloud tokens, container secrets, sockets, and configuration files to the service that accepts them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to trace credential storage, token or key replay, local privilege changes, service trust boundaries, and host-to-host pivot paths after the main CTF sandbox workflow is active.
Why use it?
It prevents treating a discovered credential as useful access without proving where it works and what it permits. It also distinguishes gaining more access on one machine from reaching another machine.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

competition-linux-credential-pivot scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Competition Linux Credential Pivot

Use this skill only as a downstream specialization after $ctf-sandbox-orchestrator is already active and has established sandbox assumptions, node ownership, and evidence priorities. If that has not happened yet, return to $ctf-sandbox-orchestrator first.

Use this skill when the decisive edge is Linux credential material and where that material is accepted.

Reply in Simplified Chinese unless the user explicitly requests English.

Quick Start

  1. Separate credential storage from accepted privilege.
  2. Record user, process, namespace, socket, key file, and service trust boundary before conclusions.
  3. Keep artifact recovery, replay path, and resulting capability in one chain.
  4. Distinguish local escalation from lateral host pivot.
  5. Reproduce one minimal artifact-to-accepted-access path.

Workflow

1. Map Credential And Trust Artifacts

  • Record SSH keys, agent sockets, kubeconfigs, cloud tokens, service-account secrets, env vars, config files, and process memory clues.
  • Note sudoers rules, capabilities, setuid binaries, systemd unit context, and namespace boundaries.
  • Keep each artifact tied to owner, scope, and expected accepting service.

2. Prove Replay And Pivot

  • Show where key, token, socket, or secret is accepted: SSH, API, Unix socket, container runtime, or control-plane endpoint.
  • Record host target, protocol, principal, and resulting session or privilege.
  • Distinguish authentication success from useful capability gain.

3. Reduce To Decisive Linux Pivot Chain

  • Compress to: recovered artifact -> accepted replay path -> pivot host or privilege transition -> resulting capability.
  • State whether root cause is weak key handling, token leakage, socket trust, sudo or capability abuse, or namespace crossover.
  • If the chain pivots into kernel exploit boundaries, hand off to kernel container escape skill.

  • Load references/linux-credential-pivot.md for artifact checklists, replay matrix, and evidence packaging.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
