Storyline

In the deep lands of Hacktopia, ACM conducts its annual flagship hackathon, Hacknight, in the midst of the Hacktober Fest. People gather to hack together and contribute to projects in the most unique way possible compared to any other in the land. Filled with participants, and maintainers helping each other out, lies the brains of the event - the bun-samosa bot. With an unbeaten ability to handle extreme server load, it has been unchallenged in the valley.

With years of being unbeaten, some events lead to its failure, and no one was able to access the sites and get issues assigned. After getting the servers back up and running, now its time to catch the culprit behind this mess. All that’s left is some important logs in an SQlite db, but have some crucial information that can be used to trace back to the person. The access logs have some spike in requests coming in to the server, and figure out a way to trace back to the person.

These SQlite files are unique per person and any attempts to cheat or collaborate will result in disqualification

You are in need of some basic tools like SQlite that will help you get around this problem

Who was the person that got to the servers, your responses will be recorded in a form that will be sent shortly. We want your answers in the following format along with the steps you took to solve the problem in a .sql file

ip, time, name and location from where the attack took place
