Ingehack/ALL OSINT CHALLS

Note: There Won’t be much explanation, straight up solutions since this will be a long read

Challenge 1: John Feldborg

We look up John Feldborg on Twitter:

we can find him and see some of his posts:

the image has left the first part of the flag as an alt text for the image: ingehack{the

now, we search him up on other platforms, we can find him on facebook:

since he mentioned in a comment on twitter :

its most likely that we find him on ebay, facebook marketplace, with marketplace being the obvious choice since he has a facebook account

we can find it , second part of the flag is _hunt

now for the third, after running a sherlock scan on his username from faceboook we find his telegram :

https://t.me/johnfeldborg# with the third part of the flag, making the full flag : ingehack{the_hunt_begins}

Challenge 2 : MailBox

we are provided this picture, and commanded to get the exact coordinates:

from this we can presume (and from the challenge name), that we need to find the specific mailbox,

and we find this :

which if u see has the exact same stone structure around it, we just need to find its location

and a facebook post about it , with a commnt mentioning the exact location

so all we had to do is to go with google street view on Torquay Road, Foxrock, and get the location :

there it is , flag is ingehack{53.270,-6.185}

Challenge 3 : Time and Place

we were given this place :

and asked to get the exact location along the the specific time this pic was taken,

starting with the location,

noticing where the little girls are sitting, the rock has a writing on it “*LK CITY”, which after bruteforcing google search XD, we find an existing town called Polk City in california, now since its a small city, i looked up “polk city, park, stones” and i found “Morse Family Park”.

\

its the specific location, now we have the coords : 41.7765431,-93.7275091

now we need to get the time, since we’re in california the time its UTC-5, and now for teh specific time:

we can see that the light pole is perpendicular to the curb, which means that if we use suncalc, and put our position at the locatiopn of the light pole, and get the specific time where we are perpendicular to the curb, we get the location.

and based on that the time is 13:15 UTC-5 , and the flag is ingehack{41.776,-93.727_UTC-5,13:15}

pretty nice chall
