There's an interesting section in the sidebar which is located on /capture and when you go to that URL, you will be redirected to /data/<int>
Every time I visit /capture, the integer parameter in /data/1 was incrementing by 1.
So I change it to /data/0 and I got a pcap file, and I analyze it on wireshark and found a credentials on it.
I login using that credentials on SSH, and looks like we got an initial shell. Sweet :D

linpeas-ng by carlospolop I noticed python3.8 binary was set a capability.
We can gain root by executing the following command
