Labs Slow and Exploit Not Being Delivered to User

nate | Last updated: Feb 08, 2023 02:17PM UTC

Working on CSRF labs - every page seems to take 20 seconds or so to load, and the deliver to victim button is not working. WHen i review the logs, I am the only IP to load the page.

Hi both, Out of interest, do you still experience this issue if you attempt these labs now? I have just tested a couple of labs under the CSRF topic and they both appeared to function as expected so it would be useful to know if this is still behaving in the same way for you today.

Same here. Started out yesterday with SQLi, first few boxes everything was smooth then after a few hours the website started lagging, slow loads and not accepting answers. Today I tried some XSS boxes, first one went OK (still a bit laggy) and second one I solved, but didn't the system didn't accept my answer, so I tried out other pages and its just really slow now :(

Hi, We are aware that there are some issues with the Web Academy recently, which we are still investigating, so it is possible that the issues you have experienced are as a result of this. Are you able to confirm which XSS lab you had issues with so that we can take a look at this for you?

Blind sql Labs are very slow. Can't run intruder.

Hi Aakash, We are aware of some issues with the lab environment and have put in place some measures to restore the performance - to confirm, are you still experiencing issues as of right now?
