open your EYES people, the only reason that HTB can afford to buy all these companies
is because they raised the HTB+ subscription price.

Is there any HTB staff that can answer my question?
Is it permissible to use demonstration pictures from the academy for my write-ups?

eternal mango
#

Writeups for Academy content are only allowed for Tier 0 modules. As for reproducing the assets from the Academy, I'd say likely not.

#

Read the terms of service 🙂

buoyant wyvern
#

I would not say it is not write up for academy content, but like teaching the attack in my own environment but using some pictures like this for demonstration

#

looks illegal to me

eternal mango
#

It is a writeup. Read the tos

#

It states quite clearly the rules on IP from Academy.

#

If you are developing your own environment, then develop your own content.

Disagreement on contracted entitlements. Basically I had compromised on the pay a fair amount because I thought the environment was going to be better and have more opportunities, but there was going to be like a 18 day difference in holiday entitlement, longer work hours and a shorter contracted lunch...I would have actually been making less money long run

is there anyone who knows kerberos very well
The Ticket-Granting Service is a component of the Key Distribution Center (KDC) that is responsible for issuing service tickets.

Typically hosted on a domain controller in the Active Directory domain. When a user or computer requests a service ticket, the request is sent to the TGS component of the KDC, which verifies the user's or computer's identity and checks their authorization to access the requested resource before issuing a service ticket that can be used to gain access to the resource.
this is content from HTB academy, and i think this is wrong, Just before this text, i read the the kerberos is only authentication protocol not authorization. and the service will decide whatever the TGS is for the user who can access the service, am i right? can someone clarify this please

zealous charm
#

@maiden anvil any hacking today?

proud moth
# buoyant wyvern is there anyone who knows kerberos very well The Ticket-Granting Service is a co...

Aight let's say i request a TGS for CIFS/fileserver.domain.com, kerberos will first authenticate you by verifying the TGT, decrypts it and verifies your session key and identity and allat, the authorization is done on the service part, namely it's fileserver.domain.com job to authorize your request for a certain SPN by doing this:

  • Decrypts the TGS using its own long-term secret key (known only to it and the KDC).
  • Extracts the user's identity and group memberships from the authorization data inside the ticket.
  • The service now makes its own authorization decision: "Based on my access control lists (ACLs), is this user allowed to read this folder?" for example
#

kerberos gives you the TGS without question once you authenticate with TGT, it's not authorization protocol as you mentioned

maiden anvil

fluid gate
#

anyone knows if the billing for letsdefend is going to merge with HTB

buoyant wyvern
#

because it's saying TGS component from KDC will authorizate you

proud moth
#

yes it's not the KDC that authorizes access to the resource, it's the service principal hosted on the SPN host

buoyant wyvern
#

should i report this

proud moth
#

no because half of academy content is wrong anyway and will fail in 99% of the realistic cases anyway

#

so don't worry

thin peak
#

lies

proud moth
#

(nah joking, if you want you can report it but honestly, it doesn't matter that much and can be interpreted in another way, maybe the wording was misleading)

buoyant wyvern
#

i would understand that if it is because it's outdated but here it is just wrong

proud moth
#

there is a caveat though

buoyant wyvern
#

what is that

proud moth
#

the KDC can be configured in such a way that it doesn't even give you a TGS in the first place

#

so there is a layer of authorization as well

#

it's just not only in the KDC

#

the TGT contains your identity and session key, so one could configure the KDC to avoid giving your identity a TGS for some stuff, like CIFS/dc.corp.local

#

however, if you fail to get this TGS, it's really an authentication failure in my eyes

#

anyway, theory confuses me so i don't know, it doesn't really matter that much honestly imo

buoyant wyvern
#

yeah but this is not even close to what the content is saying, I am try to report this, and will see what happens

#

how can i do that actually

proud moth
#

@heady sage probably could tell us better

proud moth
buoyant wyvern
#

is there any thing like this in academy itself

#

or is it problem with technical support

proud moth
heady sage
#

The TGS is not indicative of an authentication

boreal pike
#

Oh, @scenic maple You there?

heady sage
#

It just says that hey such and such user is given permission to access this service

proud moth
#

ah wait, that's true, the academy text is correct, it's only saying that the KDC can deny the issuing of a TGS which is true

proud moth
#

ok ok, then yea it's fine, the wording can be a bit confusing

silver forge
#

think of an amusement park. you get a ring on your wrist. then you go around, but you can't get straight into any of the machines. you have to show your ring to get a new ring that actually lets you into the machines.

#

and then you slip on a banana peel FeelsBadMan

buoyant wyvern
silver forge
#

source: read the specifications, implemented several low level kerberos client & server components

buoyant wyvern
heady sage
#

The TGT allows you to get service tickets.

buoyant wyvern
#

I know this

silver forge
#

yeah and you may get service tickets even the service itself will say access denied later on... there's no harm in having a ticket

#

except there is, but yeah

#

but that's just microsoft, not kerberos itself

buoyant wyvern
proud moth
#

consider what happens when you have Account is sensitive and cannot be delegated, then not every TGS will get issued to you, i guess this can be thought of some authorization check?

silver forge
#

don't blame kerberos for any goof made by ms

heady sage
# buoyant wyvern I know this

There appears to be a disconnect between your understanding of the material and the material that is presented to you.

#

Fortunately there is a solution

buoyant wyvern
#

I think i am understanding everything pretty well in the content

#

have you done Kerberos attacks module

silver forge
#

tbh kerberos a complex thing that takes a long time to start understanding, and then the AD implementation is another beast too

heady sage
#

Very true

buoyant wyvern
#

I understand Kerberos not very good but enough to understand the process you guys are trying to teach me

#

have any of y'all made Kerberos attacks module

silver forge
#

no, Kerberos is one of the best technologies ever developed. it's definitely "good". it's just complex.

buoyant wyvern
#

yep it is

proud moth
#

in my opinion the KDC definitely does a kind of "authorization" check as well, as it can deny the issuing of a TGS depending on who you are

#

whenever different identities can access different resources, that's authorization

silver forge
#

true, it's just somewhat coarse at that stage

proud moth
#

it's just different from the service account authorization, for example requesting MSSQL/db.corp.local but you have no privilege to do xp_cmdshell

#

these fine-grained service authorizations are checked by a service account, not the KDC

#

but the KDC still does an authorization check on who you are before giving you the TGS

silver forge
#

based on couple really broad users groups and settings, yes

proud moth
#

or simpler for CIFS/dc.corp.local it would decide which shares you can read/write for example

tiny canyon
#

@proud moth still can't believe i lost my job to an immigrant

buoyant wyvern
#

yeah you are right, what you are saying is right, but the text does not contain any if statement, it justs sits between AS-REP and TGS-REQ

proud moth
#

yeah it's a bit not specified enough

WHAT IS THIS CJCA YOU SPEAK OF

I dont know what it is but I want it.

Gimme

You finish it after finishing the jr cybersecurity analyst job role

Ahh

Okay

certified junior croc addiction

frail turtle
#

I havent visted HTB site in like 2 months. But i promised to go back after i learn webdev.

#

And thats what im gonna do

rustic carbon
#

But is jr cybersec analyst a must before jumping into pentesting?

raven rain
#

no

rustic carbon
#

Is it helpful? In terms of.. mixing it with pentesting

raven rain
#

unless you mean career wise

frail turtle
#

Pentesting, hahahaha i would do so many ctf before taking the CPTS before taking the test.

#

Just do every easy machine as much as you can because the cpts is pretty hard

warped plank
rustic carbon
#

I approve

warped plank
#

Hell naww they have stuff they mention in modules ONCE

i have a cybersec bachelors and 0 work experience, im using this to kinda keep stuff fresh in mind and to practice

rustic carbon

Even the very easy matchines at starting point are hard for me..

#

I'm not a noob I'm a fucking bot

#

raven rain
#

something you should know is that CJCA doesn't prep you for any of the easy machines besides old retired ones

scenic maple
frail turtle
#

Yeah thats pretty accurate...ehh medium i wouldnt say medium but definitely easy machines. The cpts is like 14 easy machines, each with unique thought processes you should have

warped plank
raven rain
#

w1ld u dont even have any certs

#

where is your CPTS

frail turtle
#

Maybe the last few machines would be medium. I guess. But adaptability is a must for CPTS you have to be in a situation but have an idea of what to do via occams razor

opal smelt
#

i have like 6 comptia certs and a couple others

warped plank

#

i actually used to think free certs are cool until i realised they are horse shit

#

and no one cares

#

thats why i think htb certs are cool

raven rain

200 business days

rustic carbon
#

But I trust your judgement

warped plank
#

that is correct

raven rain
#

i will be dead by then

opal smelt
#

is the legal preperation + paperwork side of pentesting covered on htb or is it just the activity itself

warped plank
opal smelt
#

pentest+ was like 80% "here's the buttload of paperwork you need to do to make this legal" and the rest was the fun stuff

# rustic carbon But then what?

Then choose what you wanna do, think for yourself, stop asking questions, start answering questions with theoretical knowledge

scenic maple
#

cpts is 344 hours

frail turtle
# rustic carbon Yes but which one?

There isnt a specific set of boxes. If you want on the CPTS channel theres a link on the pins that ippsec pointed to as recommended for the cpts but you can do any machines easy/medium. Once you can do them on your own you're good.

So you're saying finish fundamentals even the most basic and then start pentesting

#

And I'll learn about the tools in the long run

frail turtle

And various techniques

crude lynx

i totally skipped cjca lol

frail turtle

If you do both cpts and cbbh

opal smelt

im doing the 'information security foundations' to begin. it has a lot of useful basics in there

One of the things i wished is understanding how to use Bloodhound better but in order to do so you need $$$$

rustic carbon

Cuz I'm mostly gonna be offline and use DC for the cube talks

rustic carbon

Knowledge for bloodhound is probably the most expensive thing ive seen

#

2000 dollars for a whole training session kek

#

Im not made of money

rustic carbon
#

Alright I'm going back to studying guys

#

Have fun

vivid flower
#

Its not really that hard

rustic carbon
#

Nice talking to you

vivid flower
#

Just use a cheatsheet for more complex bloodhound queries

frail turtle
#

No its more like recognizing valid routes for exploitation.

#

From the graphs

#

Because sometimes things are like triangular and you can really tell how to make a vector

vivid flower
#

Isnt a lot of that automated? Or is it discussing ones that cant be identified by bloodhound itself

frail turtle
#

I had that problem with one of the HTB boxes

rustic carbon

Is there digital forensic (dfir) anywhere on HTB?

Oh and youre not the first to mention MCP today m0rph

you can ask the chatbot to do stuff

all i can see is morphs pc is a good choice for mining crypto

rustic carbon

No I mean which chat bot?

maiden anvil
rustic carbon
#

Ahh nice

maiden anvil
#

so I can also bridge it to vs code

#

and have it generate ransomwaare

#

then write documentation on it

#

and automate the whole process through a chatbot

scenic maple
#

gpt is weak

maiden anvil
#

and when i figure out how to make mcp servers

#

im gonna bridge it to a VM sus

#

so then i can have a chatbot launch db_autopwn

#

and create notes in obsidian in xml

ornate pike
#

is tls decoding is legal? https

#

just asking

whole owl

maiden anvil

if your working on your own homelab ya sure

no one will tell you anything

ornate pike

oh int hat case yeah

#

that case*

opal smelt
#

i dont think theres a specific law that says 'you cannot decode tls communications' but if you are going to do it you could probably get in trouble if a company decides that doing it on their network constitutes an attack

silver prawn
#

you can just use wireshark

silver prawn
#

like not somethingt that sensitive

its fine if ur working on your own enviroment

maiden anvil

it has to be encrypted

ornate pike
#

so how can we read this ?

silver prawn
#

you cant thats the point of encryption, so first u have to decrypt it, which you need session keys

#

its basically like a long tall wall

#

find another attack vector

silver prawn
#

if possible

silver prawn
#

the only way

#

to decrypt it

#

again its the same as you owning the traffic

opal smelt
#

gonna have to plant something on the device creating the communication to intercept it before it gets encrypted

ornate pike

Do you know what you are talking about

#

If it's for the juice shop
Make one yourself, or google
There are many writeup for it

ornate pike
#

i know i waslil bit confused

#

basically i am creating csrf html file and i dont know hw to deliver this to victim if u have any ttp so share.

supple plume
supple plume
#

Basically get yourself a fetch with js and put the cookies in a get param

#

Open a python server, send the payload, let the bot execute it

#

Oh sorry you ment csrf

#

Then similar but point the fetch to the endpoint instead and craft a body request that the server accepts

zealous charm
supple plume
#

Ah that is faster

zealous charm
#

The idea method for CSRF delivery is via XSS (that also helps bypass certain protections). Second to that is self hosting and having them open both your URL and the target site at the same time (but there are more protections to circumvent this way)

supple plume
#

Yeah watch out for csrf tokens if needed

I dont see the point in rewriting something other than making things easier to work with. But Rust is perhaps the hardest thing I've had to work with because there's so many features that are just things that people who drink pomegrapple flavored coffee use.

i don't get it, things just work, why rewrite?

why is rust a big deal?

rust is a cope for bad programmers who can't garbage collect in C, Zig is an actual improvement on C

shodan just exposes scraped headers from different ip's, its generally a collection of IoT devices

Im thinking of asking the chatbot to do a scan

then create a note in obsidian with the results

sharp shuttle

map out traffic cameras in your area and design an interface for people to connect and watch

that was my first shodan project

wintry flume
sharp shuttle
#

well if you are unlucky enough to have the scourge known as Flock Security in your area, it's pretty easy

#

they dont give a fuck

vivid flower
#

Thats why react and nodejs exist

#

Rust mostly exists to allow the takeover of existing projects by people on the outside seeking an in with little regard for the welfare of the project itself

#

It sounds like a good enough idea that your average fool thinks its a good idea and will benefit him somehow

hey guys I wanted to ask is the Maldev Academy course worth it or is it just jack shit, planning on taking it after solidfying myself in C and C#

maiden anvil

and so are Sektor7 course but IMO MalDev academy is a bit more tailored

silver prawn
maiden anvil

you could find all of the info for free

but you gotta go diving into code and reading white papers

silver prawn

that goes for all the things

but you wont structure it

well

basically torturing yourself slowly

until u get used to it

sure if i had the energy to do that, but im doing CPTS with it in parallel

sooo yeah

maiden anvil

this is genius

to flood my obsidian vault with malware source code

then I can have it generate new code based off of the repo of old code!

like training your model with malware code?

exactly, but without actually training!
