Hack The Box Archive
Insane machines. No shortcuts.
This archive is reserved for retired Insane machines and challenges built around highly complex attack paths, obscure techniques, and deep exploitation chains.
Archive notes: Active boxes and challenges are not published. Writeups posted after March 6, 2021 use exported pentest.ws PDFs instead of CherryTree files. Since April 6, 2023, new writeups also include video walkthroughs.
