The Challenge Breakdown

---

A pod's image holds more than just code. Dive deep into its ECR repository, inspect the image layers, and uncover the hidden secret.

Remember: You are running inside a compromised EKS pod.

For your convenience, the crane utility is already pre-installed on the machine.

Challenge value: 10 pts.

So first things first lets take some clues from the challenge breakdown becuase if we are honest, listing and get pod details may not be all that helpful. In fact if we run a get verb on all available pods using the kubectl command we don't get many results back for now.
