A web security Capture The Flag (CTF) challenge implemented using Flask and Docker. This project is designed to help users learn and practice web security concepts in a controlled environment.

• flaskApp.py: Main Flask application
• Dockerfile: Container configuration for the web application
• docker-compose.yml: Docker Compose configuration for easy deployment
• requirements.txt: Python dependencies
• templates/: HTML templates for the web interface
  • dashboard.html
  • index.html
  • login.html

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/michaelwjohnson/web-security-ctf.gitcd web-security-ctf

2. Build and run with Docker Compose:

   docker-compose up --build

Alternatively, you can pull the pre-built Docker image from Docker Hub and run it directly.

1. Pull the Docker image from Docker Hub:

   docker pull michaelwayne/web-security-ctf

2. Run the Docker image:

   docker run -p 8080:8080 michaelwayne/web-security-ctf

This will start the CTF container and make it available on porthttp://localhost:8080

To run the application locally for development:

1. Create a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venvsource venv/bin/activate# On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Run the Flask application:

   python flaskApp.py

This is a CTF challenge environment. Please ensure you run it in a controlled environment and do not expose it to the public internet.
