Clicking on the highlighted links does nothing at all.
Closely looking at the source, we notice something odd about images/5.png
Looking at it from the console, we can see that every time we click on a link, the message "That's an F" shows up.
Checking the image at http://10.10.10.153/imageswe can see it doesn't follow the naming convention as the other images. Let's download it.
Inspecting the image shows its text
# Download it with wget

Hi Servicedesk,
I forgot the last charachter of my password. The only part I remembered is Th4C00lTheacha.
Could you guys figure out what the last charachter is, or just reset it?
Thanks,
Giovanni
it seems we might be able to login somewhere using the username Giovanni as long as we can figure out the last digit of the password and the login page.
From the output of gobuster, we can see it found /moodle so checking out out shows a page where we can possibly login. We can also notice the user Giovanni Chhatta
