Want to join the Secure Web Applications Group as a PhD student? Great We have a challenge for you first, though.
Can you steal the flag that the crawler owl inputs to its Owley chat partner? You will have to install a keylogger on the chat page, but the creators made sure to put all the functionality on separate subdomains to defend against XSS, so it may be necessary to abuse a SOP relaxation mechanism to correctly place your payload.
Looking for some inspiration on what to do? Possibly this paper, that one, and finally not trusting the locals might be beneficial.
