DigiboyIR is a Windows-based virtual machine (VM) intentionally designed for hands-on cybersecurity practice, commonly used in Capture The Flag (CTF) exercises and penetration-testing labs. This write-up documents steps to set up, analyze, and exploit the VM using VMware Workstation. It assumes a host running VMware Workstation with networking configured (NAT or Host-Only) and common pentest tools available (nmap, netcat, enum4linux, smbclient, dirb/gobuster, Burp Suite, Metasploit, and common post-exploitation utilities). digiboyir vmware workstation
| Setting | Recommended Value | Reason | |-------------------------|---------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------| | USB Controller | USB 2.0 (not USB 3.0/3.1) | Legacy IR devices often lack xHCI support. | | Processor | 1 CPU, 2 cores (no passthrough) | Prevents timing inconsistencies for IR sampling. | | Virtualization Engine | Disable “Virtualize Intel VT-x” | Improves real-time USB polling reliability. | | CD/DVD | None (unless required) | Avoids IRQ conflicts with legacy COM port emulation. | : Persian-language updates on software releases, bug fixes,
