PHP eval() Class Hoisting RCE
This challenge covers an unauthenticated remote code execution reproducing MantisBT CVE-2026-49273: a value is validated with eval('return; ...'), but PHP hoists class declarations past the return; at compile time, letting an attacker pre-declare the class the app then autoloads and instantiates.

Fastjson @JSONType RCE on default embedded Tomcat (/proc/self/fd)
This challenge is the second in the fastjson @JSONType series. Unlike lab I it runs on a stock Spring Boot app on the latest JDK that parses on the Tomcat request thread with no classloader wiring. A direct jar:http payload only yields SSRF there; remote code execution comes from the two-request /proc/self/fd variant, whose file: class name has no '//', so Tomcat's own webapp classloader defines it on the request thread.
2-4 Hr. hard 9 PRO
Fastjson @JSONType jar: URL RCE
This challenge covers a remote code execution in fastjson 1.2.83 with autoType disabled, by abusing the @JSONType trust probe in ParserConfig.checkAutoType together with a jar:http:// class name loaded through Spring Boot's LaunchedURLClassLoader on JDK 8.
