Hack This Site (HTS) Basic 2

A slightly more difficult challenge, involving an incomplete password script. Requirements: Common sense:

"Network Security Sam set up a password protection script. He made it load the real password from an unencrypted text file and compare it to the password the user enters. However, he neglected to upload the password file..."



This mission doesn't need any technical knowledge as the logic is simple. The password is held in a file in plaintext (unencrypted) but as Sam forgot to upload the file there is no password to check against.

Hack This Site!
