tinyctf-platform is yet another open-source (jeopardy style) CTF platform. It is relatively easy to set up and modify. Hopefully it will become even better over time, with other people contributing.

To deploy tinyctf-platform on an EC2 instance, execute the following commands:

Become root, upgrade

sudo su
yum upgrade -y

Install some prerequisites

yum install -y git
yum install -y gcc-c++
yum install -y python-devel

Install Flask and dataset

easy_install Flask
easy_install dataset
exit

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/balidani/tinyctf-platform.git
cd tinyctf-platform/

Import the tasks

python task_import.py

Start the server

python server.py

Note: Flask should run on top of a proper web server if you plan to have many players.

• CSRF is currently not addressed
• The platform does not support tasks with the same score and category right now
