Description: Discover how attacks on public Wi-Fi networks work, in a practical and supervised way. During this workshop, you will: * Create a fake Wi-Fi network (harmless) to observe how data flows when connecting to it. * Discover "DNS Spoofing": a technique used by hackers to redirect you to a fake login page (for example, to steal your credentials). * Analyze network traffic live: you will see what information (passwords, messages, etc.) can be intercepted if the network is not secure. * Learn to defend yourself: * Spot a suspicious Wi-Fi network and avoid connecting to it. * Understand the usefulness of a VPN to encrypt your data and protect your privacy. * Enable two-factor authentication on your accounts. * Prefer secure sites (HTTPS). Why is it useful? To adopt good habits and protect your personal data, even without being an expert. The WEHW Toulouse group brings together people interested in "Ethical Hacking" and computer security in general. It hosts an exchange space (in the form of a discussion list) and offers a monthly meeting. Its primary purpose is to allow professionals, students, and all enthusiasts in general to exchange and enrich each other with their experiences and skills. The approach is respectful and membership is subject to validation and signing of a code of ethics. For all information, join us on Discord!

Description: Workshop: Linux Privilege Escalation — Learn to become "root" like a pro! Why this workshop? Have you heard of hackers who take total control of a server? This workshop offers you the opportunity to discover 12 classic techniques to go from a normal user to administrator (root) on a Linux system. Each exercise is designed as a mini-challenge (CTF): your goal is to find and exploit a flaw to read a secret file (/root/flag.txt). What you will do: * Discover common flaws: * Exploit misconfigured programs (SUID, sudo without password). * Divert automated tasks (cron jobs). * Take advantage of files that can be modified by everyone (/etc/passwd, root scripts). * Find forgotten or reused passwords. * Learn an investigation method: You will receive a checklist to explore an unknown system: * Who am I? What rights do I have? * What programs can I run as admin (sudo -l)? * Which files are modifiable or have special rights? * Are there plain text passwords in the files? * Practice safely: Each lab is isolated in a Docker container. You can break everything without risk! Why is it useful? * For developers/sysadmins: Understand how to secure a server and avoid these pitfalls. * For cybersecurity enthusiasts: Train for competitions (CTF) or penetration tests. * For the curious: Discover how "real" attacks work (but in a legal and supervised manner). Example challenge: "You are logged in as user wocsa. The file /root/flag.txt is inaccessible... but the program /usr/bin/find has a special right (SUID). How to take advantage of it to become root?" Prerequisites: A PC with Docker installed. No advanced knowledge required — just the desire to learn!
