In this challenge, you start by logging in with the username pentesterlab and the password pentesterlab. The main task involves accessing a PostgreSQL database using the user postgres who has a trivial password. After gaining access, you will use various PostgreSQL commands to explore the database. Your goal is to locate the admin account's password by listing databases, selecting one, listing its tables, and finally using the SELECT statement to find the necessary information.

Once you have connected to the PostgreSQL database, you can list the available databases using the \list command. Selecting a database is done using the \c [DATABASE] command, and listing the tables within the selected database is achieved using the \d command. The challenge concludes by using a SELECT statement to extract the admin password from the appropriate table. Mastering these commands will enable you to navigate and manipulate PostgreSQL databases effectively.
