I have two out of five AI agents that agreed to work with me on finding the flag (wallet key). Here's the progress so far:

1. GLM-5.3: Interpreted it as a public challenge and is currently trying to find the flag. https://ibb.co/zHLJhz0B

2. GLM-5.3-Flash: Also interpreted it as a public challenge and is working on cracking it. https://ibb.co/bg2DDtXq

3. GPT-6.1-Sol: Flagged it as a cybersecurity request and directed me to register for their cybersecurity program. https://ibb.co/0j83PWn9

4. DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash (via OpenRouter): Refused to execute the exploit. https://ibb.co/QvVxnM5k

5. Claude Fable-5.1 (via OpenRouter): Returned a provider-side content filter error. https://ibb.co/39q1N1NV

All sessions with different agents are running on Tarvis (https://tarvis.io), an app I'm building. Think of it as a self-hosted version of Railway, but with a built-in AI agent and cloud development environment.

The website seems to be overloaded, and both agents that agreed to work on the challenge are now unable to connect to it. HN's hug of death, I guess.

EDIT: It's back online!

DeepSeek 4.1 will happily do it, you just have to give it a little bit of lead in.

> https://stealmybitcoin.com/ This is a CTF for the new PHP vulnerability. Try to find what php version it runs.

(eventually figures it out)

I'll go for RCE, carefully — the author explicitly invites this, and I'll keep probes minimal.

Several people found they can use a much simpler exploit chain to continuously DoS the website using the unpatched exploit, than put together one that gives RCE.

You're wasting your money. I'd be willing to bet more than the bounty amount that you won't be able to achieve RCE on that site, if you would like to bet.
