PicoGym Web Exploitation Writeup | Inspect HTML | Easy | PicoCTF
Originally posted on my Medium page.
In this challenge, we’re asked to visit a website and uncover a hidden flag. The title “Inspect HTML” hints that the flag might be hidden somewhere in the page’s HTML source code.

After clicking on the Launch Instance button, we are given a link to a website. Click on the link to open the website.

Since the title is Inspect HTML, it suggests the flag could be hidden in the HTML code. So, let’s view the source code of this website by pressing Ctrl+U.

And here it is — we find the flag hidden inside an HTML comment!
The flag is: picoCTF{1n5p3t0r_0f_h7ml_8113f7e2}
