The user completed the TryHackMe WEB1 certificate, an intermediate web pentesting specialization, in approximately 36 hours over a weekend. The certificate consists of three sections: Black Box (easy, ~30 minutes), White Box (tricky, ~4 hours), and Grey Box (challenging, ~15+ hours). The Grey Box section required finding five flags with minimal information, where the user successfully obtained four out of five, struggling particularly with a NoSQL injection in the Authorization section. The post also mentions key resources like PayloadsAllTheThings and advises attempting related CTFs beforehand.
