I am having a real hard time identifying the date in which the open redirect exploitation happens in the access log provided. I answered the other two questions just fine but the first question is no good. I have tried many of the date and time stamps and I keep getting not correct. I really need help with this.
Good morning Travis,
Did you manage to find the solution for question 1 in the Open Redirect question?
I struggle with the same thing you mentioned.
I hope you will have time to reply.
Thank you in advance.
Kinds regards,
Solomon
Hi TravisW, falled into the same trap, if you found a solution by now please share, we would all apreciate that. Thank you!
27/Apr/2023 15:45:22 is the right answer.
You probably typed in this answer 27/Apr/2023:15:45:22
If you copied and pasted the answer in, it would mark it as wrong because of the colon and no spacing in the answer.

It can definitely be tricky to pinpoint the exact moment, especially with all those timestamps to sift through. Sometimes it just takes a fresh pair of eyes or a new approach. Maybe try narrowing down your search to specific patterns or keywords in the log entries?
i was having the same issue, but now i managed to solve it, here is how :
the reason that none of log answers is correct, is simply because there might some issues within you regex, try this one instead :
grep -E ‘^."GET.?.=(%2f%09%2f[a-z0-9-]+%2e[a-z]{2,}).HTTP/.".$’ access.log
Thanx Brotha! 11 hours of me pulling my hair until I saw the answer fromat which aligned whit
what you commented. Thank you!
