The target application can be seen in the above screenshot. We used the cat command for this purpose. Our target machine IP address that we will be working on throughout this challenge is, (the target machine IP address). Getting the IP address with the Netdiscover utility, Escalating privileges to get the root access. 14. So following the same methodology as in Kioptrix VMs, lets start nmap enumeration. hackmyvm Command used: << dirb http://deathnote.vuln/ >>. So lets pass that to wpscan and lets see if we can get a hit. Also, this machine works on VirtualBox. So I run back to nikto to see if it can reveal more information for me. Download the Mr. The target machine IP address is. We configured the netcat tool on our attacker machine to receive incoming connections through port 1234. This gives us the shell access of the user. So, let us start the fuzzing scan, which can be seen below. Please comment if you are facing the same. After running the downloaded virtual machine in the virtual box, the machine will automatically be assigned an IP address from the network DHCP. In this article, we will see walkthroughs of an interesting Vulnhub machine called Fristileaks. In the screenshot given below, we can see that we have run Netdiscover, which gives us the list of all the available IP addresses. In the next step, we used the WPScan utility for this purpose. suid abuse So, let us download the file on our attacker machine for analysis. For me, this took about 1 hour once I got the foothold.

We download it, remove the duplicates and create a .txt file out of it as shown below. It tells Nmap to conduct the scan on all the 65535 ports on the target machine. file permissions Nevertheless, we have a binary that can read any file. Since we are running a virtual machine in the same network, we can identify the target machine's IP address by running the netdiscover command. In the next step, we will be using automated tools for this very purpose. The root flag can be seen in the above screenshot. The results can be seen below: Command used: << nmap 192.168.1.11 -p- -sV >>. The usermin interface allows server access. It is a default tool in kali Linux designed for brute-forcing Web Applications. Please note: I have used Oracle Virtual Box to run the downloaded machine for all of these machines. Unfortunately nothing was of interest on this page as well. It is linux based machine. Goal: get root (uid 0) and read the flag file So, lets start the walkthrough. Unlike my other CTFs, this time, we do not require using the Netdiscover command to get the target IP address. There are numerous tools available for web application enumeration. We opened the target machine IP address on the browser. The notes.txt file seems to be some password wordlist. Below we can see that we have got the shell back. Use the elevator then make your way to the location marked on your HUD. I have also provided a downloadable URL for this CTF here, so you can download the machine and run it on VirtualBox. 63 47 46 7a 63 33 64 6b 49 44 6f 67 61 32 6c 79 59 57 6c 7a 5a 58 5a 70 62 43 41 3d. Please try to understand each step. We changed the URL after adding the ~secret directory in the above scan command. Robot. Nmap also suggested that port 80 is also opened. However, when I checked the /var/backups, I found a password backup file. The scan results identified secret as a valid directory name from the server. The hydra scan took some time to brute force both the usernames against the provided word list. At first, we tried our luck with the SSH Login, which could not work. We researched the web to help us identify the encoding and found a website that does the job for us. Let's use netdiscover to identify the same. The green highlight area shows cap_dac_read_search allows reading any files, which means we can use this utility to read any files. In this CTF machine, one gets to learn to identify information from different pages, bruteforcing passwords and abusing sudo. 10. The identified open ports can also be seen in the screenshot given below. I have tried to show up this machine as much I can. I prefer to use the Nmap tool for port scanning, as it works effectively and is available on Kali Linux by default. This was my first VM by whitecr0wz, and it was a fun one. Lastly, I logged into the root shell using the password. We used the -p- option for a full port scan in the Nmap command. By default, Nmap conducts the scan only on known 1024 ports. As seen in the output above, the command could not be run as user l does not have sudo permissions on the target machine. The netbios-ssn service utilizes port numbers 139 and 445. 7.
