See you in the next incident!
Hints
- Find out if there is a way to create an IPv6 address from a MAC address.
Solution
The document extracted from downloaded archive explains how the address of the device should be found. It mentions that the device uses stateless autoconfiguration to connect to the IPv6 networks.
I also provides some details about the device, i.e.
- Network Range:
2001:db8:7cc::/64
- Device media access control address:
00ca.7ad0.ea71
- Device provides a webpage with statistical and localization data on port
1701/TCP
.
We can use the autoconfiguration algorithm to calculate the resulting IP address of the device, i.e.
- Take the MAC of the network device (
00:ca:7a:d0:ea:71
) - Flip bit 2 of the first byte (
02:ca:7a:d0:ea:71
) - Insert
ff:fe
in the middle (02:ca:7a:ff:fe:d0:ea:71
) - Combine with the network prefix into an IPv6 address (
2001:db8:7cc::02ca:7aff:fed0:ea71
)
Once we calculated the address, we can open the webpage on port 1701
to
retrieve the flag listed in the Service Tag
section.
