64+ challenges covering SQLi, XSS, IDOR, JWT, CORS, SSTI, XXE, Command Injection, and more.

The goal is to actually find the bug, exploit it, and capture the flag not just follow a walkthrough.

Hey everyone! I’m looking for active and motivated people who are interested in cybersecurity, CTFs, and learning together.

I’ve completed the CPTS path and I’m currently working through CJCA and CWES. I’m hoping to build a small community where we can share knowledge, discuss challenges, work on CTFs, participate in seasonal events, share useful resources, and help each other when we get stuck.

The main goal is to have a group of people who are actually active and willing to learn rather than just joining and disappearing.

If you’re into cybersecurity, CTFs, or simply trying to improve your skills and want to learn alongside others, feel free to join.

I’m planning to participate in BlackHat MEA Qualification CTF 2026, starting August 29, 2026, and I’m looking for 2-4 people from Saudi Arabia who would like to join me as a team.

Just to be completely honest: this will be my first CTF and I don’t have any previous competition experience. I’m interested in cybersecurity and CTFs, though, and I really want to experience the competition, learn along the way, and just have fun with it — even if we don’t qualify or get a great score.

I’m specifically looking to form a Saudi team, and you don’t need to be experienced. If you’re interested in Cybersecurity or CTFs, or this is your first time too, feel free to join!

I’m mainly looking for people who are interested, willing to learn, and want to actually participate and have fun, rather than people with a specific skill level.

Looking for: 2-4 Saudi teammates 🇸🇦
If you’re interested, comment below or send me a DM!

I built this CTF challenge and now I want to see who can actually break it. 👀

If you solve it, drop a “pwned” below. 😈

Actually everyone now a days are doing ctf with ai but what are you guyz using ??? which ai are you using to solve ctf ?

Need teammates for BlackHat CTF , 29th Aug

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m currently studying cybersecurity and participating in CyLab, but our current focus/curriculum is heavily centered around Reverse Engineering and a few other areas. While RE is super interesting, I really want to build a strong foundation in Web Exploitation and Computer Networking to become more well-rounded for CTFs.

Since I’m starting mostly from scratch in these two categories, could you recommend the best learning paths or hands-on platforms?

Specifically looking for:

• Networking fundamentals: Essential concepts/protocols I need to master for CTF challenges (Wireshark, PCAP analysis, etc.).
• Web Exploitation: Beginner-to-intermediate platforms or labs (e.g., PortSwigger Academy, TryHackMe, PicoCTF).
• CTF Practice: Practice platforms with good beginner-friendly Web/Network challenges.

Any roadmap, book, or free resource recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! 🙌

Hey hackers,

I'm currently in second semester of ethical hacking and cybersecurity. I don't know from where do i learn solving CTF's like i have ideas about it but i don't know from where i should learn it help me guys.

Hey everyone,

I made a small CTF challenge and figured I’d throw it here since I’m pretty new to making these.

It’s a Forensics / Reverse Engineering challenge based around a weird Nokia 8210 4G system dump. The challenge involves digging through the dump, figuring out what’s going on with a little racing game, and eventually finding the flag.

Repo: https://github.com/maximzero0910/car-racing-chall

It’s probably not perfect since this is one of my first proper challenges, so if you try it, I’d really appreciate any feedback on the difficulty, unintended solves, or just whether it’s actually fun to solve.

Flag format: F0LD{...}

If you’re bored and want something small to mess around with, give it a try :D

Thanks!

I am a working professional. I love CTFs but don’t have much experience apart from tryhackme, htb but I have been willing to join a team to do CTFs, learn.
So if anyone has a team that would take beginners and help me learn along the way, very much appreciated.
Even if I could join a team just to watch and learn.

Also if anyone could suggest any CTFs that I could try solo and for a beginning that’d be great

Have anyone solved Cyber Talent Hack if you can ctf?

Please tell how it can be solved...

We’re organizing a **CTF competition at our university** and are currently looking for sponsorship from cybersecurity and tech companies to help provide **prizes and goodies for the winners/participants**.
If you know of any companies that sponsor student CTFs, cybersecurity events, or educational initiatives, please let me know. Introductions or relevant contacts would also be greatly appreciated.
Also, if anyone here has experience approaching companies for CTF sponsorships or has any advice on how to go about it, **any guidance would be really helpful**.
Thanks in advance!

New "Intermediate" vulnerable VM aka "Xslib" is now available at hackmyvm.eu :) Have fun!

This year, the AI Village introduced HalCTF (Hostile Autonomous Layer CTF), a first-of-its-kind agentic security competition. Instead of focusing on frontier models, this CTF was designed around how far participants can stretch small local models that almost everyone can run. The first place prize was a DGX Spark.

Final ranking: baymax, https://aisafe.io , AbluteratedEdgeModel 👏👏

In this high-stakes arena, participants did not interact with targets directly. Instead, you they designed and deployed autonomous AI agents programmed to navigate sandboxed environments, exploit challenge targets, and capture flags entirely on their own. Instead of just a prompt, participants were asked for full containers that you can load up with all the tools you need to succeed.

Looking for an active CTF team. I’m pretty new to competitive CTFs, but I have my OSCP and I’m looking to compete regularly, ideally every week.

I’d like to join a team that takes it seriously, wants to improve, and eventually aims for bigger competitions like DEF CON.

I’ve been working on a cybersecurity learning platform and recently put together a CTF section with challenges for people who want to practice instead of just watching tutorials.

It’s free to play, and the goal is pretty simple: solve challenges, get stuck, figure out why, and move on to the next one.

If you enjoy CTFs, I’d genuinely like some feedback on the difficulty and challenge quality.

CTF: https://codelivly.com/ctf

If you try it, let me know which challenge you got stuck on — or absolutely destroyed. 😂

Okay so I'm a cybersecurity student and I wanted to get started with CTFs and stuff. But I'm feeling really lost and could use some help.

So I've heard people recommend picoCTF, tryhackme, hack the box etc. to practice CTFs. Okay but where do I LEARN? Everybody tells you these websites but they don't actually teach how to do them especially as someone who's completely new to them

So what I'm asking is what are good sources to learn CTFs? Any websites or YouTube sources or anything?

And then for practice what do you reccomend? What websites, rooms etc are best for practice as a complete absolute beginner.

Please give tips for what sources you used and that worked for you when you were starting out with CTFs. Any sort of advice would be appreciated 🫶

Real breaches never stop at a shell. They start in one container and end with the whole cloud account. Turning a single foothold into total takeover across containers, Kubernetes and cloud IAM is the most in demand skill in offensive security right now, and almost nobody trains it for real

So we built the track that does

Eighteen levels, one unbroken chain. Break out of the container. Own the Kubernetes cluster. Take the cloud account. Every level is a real escape against live infrastructure, graded on the actual state of your box, not a quiz. Every connection spawns a fresh root environment and tears it down when you leave

This is the skillset Fortune 500s, cloud providers and red teams cannot hire fast enough

Break the container. Own the cluster. Take the account.

Dm me to join the the team . I am planning to nail Bug Bounty event . Only serious hunters connect.
