CTF Flag Tracker

A CTF flag tracker for long-term tracking of multiple events or sessions for a group of people. Designed and built for the University of Southampton Cyber Security Society (SUCSS) to keep track of flags found by members during the academic year of events and sessions.

Has support for muliple events, teams per event and variable administration permissions so a user can be granted access to creating flags for their event.

Designed to run in Docker with Nginx up front.

Running Behind Nginx Proxy

Use this snippet inside your server {...} block. The most important part is proxy_redirect when using SSL as without this, redirects are broken!

location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
    proxy_redirect http:// $scheme://;
    proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
}
