Scenario

LinkPeek previews any link you paste: you POST /preview.php a url and it fetches that page on the server and shows you the first part of the body.

Goal

There is an internal metadata service you cannot reach directly. Make LinkPeek fetch it for you and submit the value it returns as the flag.
