Machine Synopsis
Shoppy is an easy Linux machine that features a website with a login panel and a user search functionality, which is vulnerable to NoSQL injection. It can be exploited to obtain the password hashes of all the users. Upon cracking the password hash for one of the users we can authenticate into the Mattermost chat running on the server where we obtain the SSH credentials for user `jaeger`. The lateral movement to user `deploy` is performed by reverse engineering a password manager binary, which reveals the password for the user. We discover that the user `deploy` is a member of the group `docker`. Its privileges can be exploited to read the root flag.
