And now… the winners are in!

🥇 1st Place — 0xSpace

#Weekend_CTF_drop

Buna Direct's coffee ordering portal just got popped. Someone leaked customer data and pivoted deeper into the network — the trail runs cold at an internal "roasting webhook." Can you follow it all the way home?

🏴‍☠️ Jebena Leak
🎁 200 pts total

🕐 Live now on ctf.bunabyte.com — weekend drop, first solver gets shoutout on the leaderboard.
Good luck.

i think the 🏴‍☠️ Jebena Leak challenge was bit harder than expected, so we have put some hint on the description.

🏆 First solve on Jebena Leak 🏆

☕️ @kebi just chained IDOR → SSRF → forensics to grab the full flag. First solver of the weekend drop!

Still live on ctf.bunabyte.com — go see if you can catch up.

MrMercer has taken the high ground.

Buna Byte Academy በቅርብ ቀን


የሳይበር ደህንነት ትምህርት በአንድ ቦታ ይማሩ፤ ወዲያውኑ በተግባር ይሞክሩት::

ለረጅም ጊዜ የሳይበር ደህንነት (Cybersecurity) ትምህርት በበርካታ ታቦች የተበታተነ ነበር። ቪዲዮውን በአንድ ቦታ ማየት፣ ማስታወሻ ኖት በሌላ መፈለግ፣ ከዚያ ደግሞ ላብ ለመስራት ቨርቹዋል ማሽን ማስተካከል፣ ከ VPN ጋር መታገል… እና የተማሩት ነገር ከላቡ ጋር በትክክል እንዲገናኝልዎ ተስፋ ማድረግ ነበር::

ይህን ክፍተት ሙሉ በሙሉ ለመድፈን Buna Byte Academyን በጥቂት ቀናት ውስጥም ስራ ይጀምራል።

ምን የተለየ ነገር ይዞ መጥቷል?

Buna Byte Academy ከራሳችን Buna Byte CTF Lab ጋር በቀጥታ የተገናኘ የትምህርት መድረክ ነው። እያንዳንዱ ሞጁል የሚከተሉትን በአንድ ያገናኛል፦

🔹 ቪዲዮዎች እና የተዋቀሩ ምዕራፎች
🔹 ጥልቅ የማንበቢያ ጽሑፎች
🔹 የቀጥታ (Hands-on) የ CTF ላብ ልምምዶች

ምንም አይነት VM ማስተካከል ወይም ከ VPN ጋር መታገል ሳይያስፈልግዎ፣ የተማሩትን በዚያው ሰከንድ በተግባር ይተገብራሉ።


ይህ ለ Buna Byte ትልቅ መነሻችን ነው፤ በ Offensive እና Defensive Cybersecurity ላይ እውነተኛ ለውጥ ማምጣት ለሚፈልጉ ተማሪዎች የተዘጋጁ ኮርሶች፣ የ CTF መድረካችን እና እያደገ የሚሄድ ጠንካራ ማህበረሰብ (Community) ማእከል ይሆናል።
የመጨረሻዎቹን ዝግጅቶች እያጠናቀቅን ሲሆን በጥቂት ቀናት ውስጥ አገልግሎት መስጠት ይጀምራል።
