i couldn't log in to my server so my friend kindly spun up a server to let me test makefiles. at least, they thought i couldn't log in :P

Visiting the website brings us to a page where we can enter a "Target name" and something into a text box and click "make". We are also linked to a source file:
```py
import os
from pathlib import Path
import re
import subprocess
import tempfile
from flask import Flask, request, send_file
app = Flask(__name__)
flag = open('flag.txt').read()
def write_flag(path):
with open(path / 'flag.txt', 'w') as f:
f.write(flag)
def generate_makefile(name, content, path):
with open(path / 'Makefile', 'w') as f:
f.write(f"""
SHELL := /bin/bash
.PHONY: {name}
{name}: flag.txt
\t{content}
""")
@app.route('/', methods=['GET'])
def index():
return send_file('index.html')
@app.route('/src/', methods=['GET'])
def src():
return send_file(__file__)
# made sense
@app.route('/make', methods=['POST'])
def make():
target_name = request.form.get('name')
code = request.form.get('code')
print(code)
if not re.fullmatch(r'[A-Za-z0-9]+', target_name):
return 'no'
if '\n' in code:
return 'no'
if re.search(r'flag', code):
return 'no'
with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as dir:
run_dir = Path(dir)
write_flag(run_dir)
generate_makefile(target_name, code, run_dir)
sp = subprocess.run(['make'], capture_output=True, cwd=run_dir)
return f"""
<h1>stdout:</h1>
{sp.stdout}
<h1>stderr:</h1>
{sp.stderr}
"""
app.run('localhost', 8000)
```
These are the checks being run on our Makefile code:
```py
if not re.fullmatch(r'[A-Za-z0-9]+', target_name):
return 'no'
if '\n' in code:
return 'no'
if re.search(r'flag', code):
return 'no'
```
So alphanumeric only for the name, one line, and not allowed to include "flag".
I've never used a Makefile before, so I did a little bit of research on it. I quickly realized it just executed shell commands, so I figured I could probably just do some bash magic to print the flag. I put the "Target name" as something random and then put `cat fl*` into the text box.
Clicked make and got the flag!
