You're kidding, right?  The chance to r00t *every* debian box in the
world (apt-get update; apt-get upgrade; apt-get install rootkit) isn't
worth losing a single local root sploit?  The only better targets are
the windows ones like Symantec's LiveUpdate and, of course,
windowsupdate.microsoft.com...

Hmm. I want a game where after you use your 0day, you lose it. Maybe 
I'll have targets like "debian.org" and "gentoo.org". For the life of 
me, I can't think of anything on debian.org worth owning that would 
compensate for losing a good kernel local, or anything on 
gentoo worth 
risking rsync for. Whoever it is is losing points fast.

Actually, that's very much what the game was like last year- 
They gave 
us a relatively secured build with lots of insecure e-biz-type apps 
running on it. You got points for keeping them up for 
extended periods 
and also for
capturing and then keeping a service.

The games have been fairly interesting the last two years.

Screw defense.  You come in with whatever equipment you want.  The
   

host
 

sets up a set of targets.  You attack them.  Maybe there's 
a duplicate 
set of targets, one for each team.  Maybe there's just one 
set (more 
chaotic, IMHO).  You get points for taking control of 
target services 
and/or networks.

That gets rid of the sysadmin aspect.

   

I like the aspect of holding the service after its owned. At 
this point 
you have to consider the switch vs. no switched network. If 
everybody i 
attacking the same machine, tcpdump caps are trivial meaning 
that teams 
could gain access just by copying other teams.

I would be infavor of something like a themed contest. For 
instace this 
year we have a ecomm site running on a trusted OS. There is 
a series of 
points awarded for how far you get. This deep sixes 
competeing against 
other teams and makes it more blackhat like, its your team vs the 
target.
