18:50 - Explaining why this nginx server uses proxy_pass and has a node app listening on port 1337
21:20 - Dropping an SSH Key and using SSH to access this box, no privilege escalation yet just wanted a better shell
25:20 - Having a lot of trouble with getting data out of the MySQL Database, not exactly sure what went wrong here.

37:52 - Finding an exploit and executing code as laravel.
41:08 - First script didn't work, looking to see if there are others. This one didn't require absolute paths, which allows it to work! Getting root
42:30 - Looks like there's some bad characters with our reverse shell, switching to a web cradle and getting root
46:00 - Explaining why this box isn't the box I wanted to show off FeroxBuster (Recursive Searching on API wouldn't work)
