Labyrinth or Labyrin? Labyrinth is the community. Labyrin is the infrastructure we run for it under labyrin.org: the Matrix server, the Labyrin-SSO account, and Daedalus.

Talk with us

Discord

Discord is the main entrance: discord.gg/labyrinth1337, where we chill, learn, and the forums sit.

Matrix

Matrix is an open, decentralised chat network with end-to-end encryption. We run our own server for it, and a bridge joins it to our Discord: a message in a bridged room reaches both sides. You can take part in the same conversations without Discord, on infrastructure we run ourselves. New to Matrix? Start with the Matrix docs.

There are two ways in.

With any Matrix account. The Labyrinth space is public and federated. Open #labyrinth:labyrin.org, pick your client and join the rooms. If you don't have an account yet, create one on any Matrix server, such as matrix.org.

With a Labyrin account, which gives you an address on our own server, such as @you:labyrin.org. Some rooms and features are for these accounts.

  1. Create your Labyrin account (see the next section).
  2. Open our Element client: element.labyrin.org.
  3. Sign in with single sign-on (Labyrin-SSO) and approve. Element has no sign-up form of its own here: accounts are made on auth.labyrin.org.
  4. Choose your Matrix username (user becomes @user:labyrin.org) and a display name.
  5. Join the Labyrinth space.

Any Matrix client works with either kind of account. We recommend Element, which our own element.labyrin.org is set up for. FluffyChat, Cinny and Nheko work too.

Labyrin-SSO account

One account opens everything we run ourselves: Matrix on labyrin.org, and Daedalus. It lives at auth.labyrin.org.

  1. Open auth.labyrin.org and choose Sign up. (Choosing Sign in on Daedalus brings you to the same page.)
  2. Pass the captcha, then fill in your username, name, email and password.
  3. Open the Account Confirmation email and follow its link. The account works once it's confirmed. Can't find the email? Check your spam folder. Some mail providers block links in spam, so copy the link into your browser if clicking does nothing.
  4. Sign in.

The SSO authenticates to all Labyrinth infrastrutures:

If you are a member on Buy Me a Coffee, sign up with the same email address you use there. Daedalus recognises members by that address (see Membership, below).

Daedalus: the labs

Daedalus is Labyrinth's cyber range. Each lab, a chamber, rebuilds a cool vulnerability or attack technique: recent CVEs, and the techniques from our community learnings. We design and update Capture-The-Flag challenges in Chambers, and pentest lab in Mazes:

To get started:

  1. Open daedalus.labyrin.org and Sign in with your Labyrin-SSO account.
  2. Pick a chamber and start its instance. Once it's up, the chamber page shows how to reach it.
  3. Break in, find the flag, and submit it on the chamber page.

Points, first bloods and titles (Apprentice, Artisan, Architect, Daedalus) show on your profile and on the scoreboard.

Writeups. Pwned a chamber? Share how you did it, as a link to your own writeup or written right on Daedalus. A moderator checks each one before it appears on the Writeups page, where anyone can read them.

Daedalus in Discord. On your Daedalus profile, click Get a link code, then send /daedalus link with the code in our Discord. From then on your Daedalus points give you LabyrinthXP XP there to escalate Discord server levels.

A full guide to Daedalus is on its way: [[LINK: the Daedalus guide post - updating]].

Subscribe

Labyrinth is kept running by the support of its members. A membership on Buy Me a Coffee supports the servers and these infrastures which are available for all folks. And in return, on Daedalus it gives you private instances, and access to all retired labs.

Daedalus links your membership by email. Use the same address for Buy Me a Coffee and your Labyrin-SSO account, and the membership links once that email is confirmed. If the addresses differ, ask admin to link it for you.
