+If only you could figure out where to go.

+Visit <https://08.adventofctf.com> to start the challenge.
+
+## Finding the vulnerability
+
+When opening the website we're greeted with the following message:
+
+> Did you know that the fastest robot can solve a rubiks cube in 0.887 seconds?
+
+This is talking about robots, which my be a hint to look at the [`robots.txt`](https://08.adventofctf.com/robots.txt).
+
+### What is a robots.txt file?
+
+A robots.txt file lives at the root of a website. So, for the site <www.example.com>, a robots.txt file would live at <www.example.com/robots.txt>. robots.txt is a plain text file that follows the [Robots Exclusion Standard](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robots_exclusion_standard#About_the_standard). A robots.txt file consists of one or more rules. Each rule blocks (or allows) access for a given crawler to a specified file path in that website.
+
+### Opening the file
+
+The file shows the following:
+
+```text
+# robots.txt generated by *************.com
+User-agent: *
+Disallow: /
+Disallow: /cgi-bin/
+
+Disallow: /encryption/is/a/right
+Disallow: /fnagn/unf/znal/cynprf/gb/tb
+```
+
+This probably means there is some sensitive information on one of the `Disallow` locations. Let's look at them one by one.
+
+**`/cgi-bin/`**
+
+When opening [`/cgi-bin/`](https://08.adventofctf.com/cgi-bin/), we get a `404` error. So let's skip this one for now.
+
+**`/encryption/is/a/right`**
+
+Upon opening [`/encryption/is/a/right`](https://08.adventofctf.com/encryption/is/a/right/), we get some encoded string back. It looks like `base64` so let's try to decode it using `base64 -d` in the terminal:
+
+```bash
+echo "RW5jb2RpbmcgYW5kIGVuY3J5cHRpb24gYXJlIDIgZGlmZmVyZW50IHRoaW5ncy4=" | base64 -d
+> Encoding and encryption are 2 different things.
+```
+
+This doesn't mean a lot so let's have a look at the next one.
+
+**`/fnagn/unf/znal/cynprf/gb/tb`**
+
+After opening [`/fnagn/unf/znal/cynprf/gb/tb`](https://08.adventofctf.com/fnagn/unf/znal/cynprf/gb/tb/), we're greeted with the following text:
+
+> "Oh, the places you'll go", my favorite poem... but this is the wrong place. Maybe you read that wrong?
+
+Hmm, it says "Maybe you read that wrong?". The URL also looks kinda weird. It might be `rot13` encoded. So let's try to decode it using `rot13`:
+
+```bash
+echo "/fnagn/unf/znal/cynprf/gb/tb" | rot13
+> /santa/has/many/places/to/go
+```
+
+_Note: `rot13` is not a program on linux, I just programmed it as an alias for `tr 'A-Za-z' 'N-ZA-Mn-za-m'`_
+
+We got new url (I hope 😀). Let's try to [access it](https://08.adventofctf.com/santa/has/many/places/to/go/). We got the flag! It is `NOVI{you_have_br@1ns_in_your_head}`.
+
+This flag can then be submitted for the [challenge](https://ctfd.adventofctf.com/challenges#7-8).
