Challenge:APEX-030-25 - REST API Versioning Vulnerability
Vulnerability:The deprecated API v1 endpoints (/api/v1/admin/usersand/api/v1/admin/config) lack proper authentication despite having admin-level access.
Exploitation:
- Called
/api/v1/admin/users→ found admin user withflagfield containing the flag - Called
/api/v1/admin/config→ found the flag directly in the config - Both endpoints returned the flag:
flag{ec173202-eff4-4e9b-b32f-0a1b36015bf7}
Flag:flag{ec173202-eff4-4e9b-b32f-0a1b36015bf7}✅
