Six Domains of Chaos

Each category runs its own ladder, its own scoring weight, and its own breed of suffering. Pick a lane or take them all.

</>

Web Exploitation

Injection, SSRF, deserialization, auth bypass and prototype pollution. If it parses input, it bleeds.

⚿

Cryptography

Broken ciphers, lattice attacks, oracle abuse and home-rolled RSA with a fatal allergy to randomness.

58 live310 avg pts
⌬

Binary Pwn

Heap grooming, ROP chains, format strings and seccomp jails. A shell is just a bug away.

61 live420 avg pts
⇄

Reverse Engineering

Obfuscated VMs, anti-debug traps and hand-written assembly designed by someone who hates you.

52 live380 avg pts

Forensics

Memory dumps, packet captures, deleted partitions and that one JPEG that is definitely not a JPEG.

Hardware & ICS

Firmware pulls, JTAG, side channels and programmable logic controllers wired into the live grid.

Rules of Engagement

Scope Is Absolute

Only touch assets inside the arena. Out-of-scope attacks are an instant permanent ban, no appeal, no exceptions.

Flag Sharing = Detonation

Trading flags across teams voids every score from both sides. The ledger is public and it remembers.

No Denial of Service

Breaking the game is cheating, not solving it. Keep the infrastructure alive so everyone can suffer equally.

Write It Up

Publish a writeup after the event closes. Knowledge compounds — hoarders get shadowbanned from the rankings.
