Brainpan 3 is finally here! If you've completed the previous Brainpan releases, then you'll know what to expect. This time round, I've made it a tad bit more challenging so get your caffeine shots ready!

Brainpan 3 can be downloaded from VulnHub: [https://www.vulnhub.com/entry/brainpan-3,121/](https://www.vulnhub.com/entry/brainpan-3,121/)

TL;DR: If something bad happens, it’s not my fault.

Brainpan 3 has been tested on VirtualBox, VMware Player, and VMware Fusion. Special thanks go out to my testers [barrebas](https://www.twitter.com/barrebas) and [Swappage](https://www.twitter.com/swappage). Drop them a note and thank them for helping me patch holes that would've made Brainpan 3 much easier.  <commit_msg>Add mirror link to Brainpan 3<commit_after>---
