Basic Mission 3 Solution

This is the third basic mission that can be found at Hack This Site . Please use this as a reference or to help you when you get stuck. This is not intended for people to just breeze on by the missions. Besides, what's the fun in that???

Scenario - This time Network Security Sam remembered to upload the password file, but there were deeper problems than that.

We will start by opening our browsers developer tools or just inspecting the element. Now just like in mission 2 we need to inspect the password form. After inspection we see that it posts to /missions/basic/3/index.php BUT we can also see there is a hidden field that indicates there is a file called password.php. Lets have a look at that. Man, he stored it in plain text!
