After logging in with
ssh bandit15@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220
Password: 8xCjnmgoKbGLhHFAZlGE5Tmu4M2tKJQo
we can see, by running, ls, that the /home/bandit15 directory is empty. this is beacause, as the game tells us, we need to submit the password for this level to port 30001 on localhost on an cnrypted connection using SSL/TLS. We can do this by using openSSL’s s_client, which makes our connection secure:
openssl s_client -connect localhost:30001
We can then submit our password. This will return the password fo the next level:
