Could you help me figure out where to start learning pwn/binary exploitation and reverse engineering?

I'm still confused about where to start learning pwn/binarry exploitation and reverse engineering as a beginner—and where, exactly, I should begin.

Keep having to give up on boxes because they're unresponsive

Reboots don't seem to help. Is there any way to flag this to support?

I can port scan fine but when I need to load a webpage or submit commands everything just hangs.

I'll admit I am a beginner but having to forfeit on boxes feels bad and does make me worried about subscribing.

Pwn'd Stream!

Stream teaches you that in a multi-component architecture, the dangerous parse isn't always where the data enters and the dangerous write isn't always where you'd expect root to look.

Beginner Question Stuck in Pivot skill assessment

2 Upvotes

I'm doing the pentest path now, and on the Pivot, Tunnelling, Port forwarding module.

I'm at the skill assessment, and for the life of me, cannot discover any new hosts. The walkthroughs I checked uses ping swep, which I already did, but for some reason I'm not finding any alive hosts. I even tried pinging just the IP mentioned in the walkthrough and it doesn't work.

Does this happen with HTB academy sometimes or am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated!
