Bandit 12 Over The Wire

Lessons Learned extracting and decompressing files using the following tools: file, xxd -r, gunzip, bunsip2, and tar -xf Logging in On a kali vm/ linux machine Type: ssh bandit12@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220  5Te8Y4drgCRfCx8ugdwuEX8KFC6k2EUu Completing The Challenge The Goal: The password for the next level is stored in the file data.txt , which is a hexdump of a file that has been repeatedly compressed.
