[raven rain]

i wish my friends would study with me

[rustic carbon]

hang out long enough, and maybe someone will bite. in my experience, those types of connections usually come from voice chats. people are seldom comfortable to link up via text chat. but it does happen possibly on occasion. like, there's a room in this discord server for "Join a Team" or something like that.

Hey everyone, I just received a pretty suspicious message from a random user asking me to help them make a “411 call” in the US. This seems really unusual and potentially a scam attempt (possibly trying to get me to call a paid number or act as a relay). Has anyone seen something like this before? Also, should I share the username here so it can be reported or checked by the mods?

[devout sail]

Many did

Report and forget

[dusky aspen]

This is what my town looked like a few weeks ago, some lost their houses

[devout sail]

Search 411 in this chat, there was some screenshots xD

[west venture]

💀

[crimson crypt]

😂

[molten bobcat]

411 calls are for ensuring there's no buried wire or pipes where you intend to dig

This person has no idea about the US at all and likely isn't even a resident lmao

It used to be for directory completion

Hence the phrase "what's the 411?"

I'm thinking of 811

For digging

Rip

[rustic carbon]

nah dude, 411 is an oldschool number to lookup business phone numbers and addresses.

i used it all the time back in the day.

[molten bobcat]

Yeh, directory completion

[rustic carbon]

yeah

The emergency line for the police in the US is "911" btw

hello i participating in ctf and i struggling with tihs task for a long time i only takze control of machine with metsploit exploit but then i dont know what to do the objective is to find secret.txt where is flag
The administrator has deployed a CMS web application.

We know it's not bug-free, and you can verify this using the metasploit framework.

Your first step is to conduct reconnaissance and find a vulnerability that will allow you to "get in" and gain a shell in the context of the user running the service.

However, this is only half the battle. The real goal is to take full control of the system. We know the administrator is using a popular permissions delegation tool. If you manage to exploit it correctly, you'll have access to the root user's home directory and the secret.txt file hidden there.

PS. One of the available local modules should handle this task, but rumors are circulating that it requires a minor tweak to work in this specific environment.

Server address: 10.35.45.129

if somone is intersted in i would pass openvpn file and password to connect
I would be very grateful if someone could help.

so lost tht i dont even knew wht the it is tday

[runic cliff]

you already have an active pwnbox instance error

i don't have one running though

[chrome tree]

Then figure out something that will. Half this path is doing your own research and figuring it out. Enumerate the functionality and the stack. Then go and research that. This is a cyclical process. Enumerate, find something interesting, research, possibly exploit. Rinse and repeat.

If you don't know how something works you can't break it or fuxk with the logic. So you'll have to go learn.

Hi.

[turbid bloom]

ayo why is it taking so long for a full port scan with nmap on a htb target machine 😭

[molten bobcat]

That's normal friend

Nmap is doing tons of stuff for ya, gotta be patient while it runs

[turbid bloom]

its been over 10 mins 😭

[molten bobcat]

If you tap an arrow key what's the progress at and what's the ETA

[turbid bloom]

normal port scan at 99.9% sigh

[molten bobcat]

Can you copy paste the command you used?

[turbid bloom]

nmap -p- -sS <ip> -T4

used the timing template to make it faster

i just wanted number of open tcp ports

[molten bobcat]

Try this command instead

Sec

[turbid bloom]

STILL 12 MINS BRUH

yea im cooked

[alpine pumice]

T1000

[turbid bloom]

time to wait 12 mins ;-;

[molten bobcat]

nmap -sC -sV -p- IP address --min-rate 1000

This is my go to

[turbid bloom]

what does it give?

[molten bobcat]

Well let's read the flags

-sC show scripts

-sV show version

[turbid bloom]

-sV services

[molten bobcat]

-p- all ports

[turbid bloom]

-p- is all ports

the sync 😂

[molten bobcat]

--Min-rate is a "minimum packet transfer speed"

Iirc

So it's like setting a minimum speed limit

[turbid bloom]

ohh

[molten bobcat]

It works different than the T flags I think

Nice

I like this lmao

[turbid bloom]

what's the difference between the T flags and the min rate?

[molten bobcat]

Sigh well

--min-rate <number>; --max-rate <number> (Directly control the scanning rate)
Nmap's dynamic timing does a good job of finding an appropriate speed at which to scan. Sometimes, however, you may happen to know an appropriate scanning rate for a network, or you may have to guarantee that a scan will be finished by a certain time. Or perhaps you must keep Nmap from scanning too quickly. The --min-rate and --max-rate options are designed for these situations.

When the --min-rate option is given Nmap will do its best to send packets as fast as or faster than the given rate. The argument is a positive real number representing a packet rate in packets per second. For example, specifying --min-rate 300 means that Nmap will try to keep the sending rate at or above 300 packets per second. Specifying a minimum rate does not keep Nmap from going faster if conditions warrant.

Likewise, --max-rate limits a scan's sending rate to a given maximum. Use --max-rate 100, for example, to limit sending to 100 packets per second on a fast network. Use --max-rate 0.1 for a slow scan of one packet every ten seconds. Use --min-rate and --max-rate together to keep the rate inside a certain range.

Does this make sense? Copied straight from nmaps doccs

https://nmap.org/book/man-performance.html

I wrapped it so it wouldn't be super bad to look at

[west venture]

It's explaining the --min-rate flag

[molten bobcat]

That's correct

He asked what it did

This is what it does

[turbid bloom]

hm yea it does

[obtuse fern]

Reading the docs is the first step to truly understanding a tool

[turbid bloom]

i did go through it but somehow missed this part 😅

[obtuse fern]

The nmap people are smart, they have their whole documentation on their website

[turbid bloom]

yea that's true

[molten bobcat]

Ctrl F is your friend

[turbid bloom]

that's also true

[turbid goblet]

is there a way to turn off seeing what OS the box is

i dont wanna know the OS before i start my machine

[turbid bloom]

might've slacked in reading the docs when i was reading timing templates

[obtuse fern]

Ive looked at it a few times when trying to figure out why I get different results with only a single flag change; -sT, -sS, -sS

[obtuse fern]

No

[turbid goblet]

rip

[rancid snow]

friendly reminder that warnings about getting blocked of flagged for fraud for performing card chargebacks are a psyop by companies to convince people getting back their money is more hassle than its worth but you are 100% within your rights to demand money back for goods or services not received or only partially recieved.

and no it doesnt matter if the company has terms listed somewhere or made you sign something up front or if their internal refund policies deny you

I ain't doing it for fun

[west venture]

Uh yeah? Just don't add the -O flag?

[turbid bloom]

i do that too XD

[obtuse fern]

That wasnt the question

[turbid bloom]

but im used to reading through long docs

i've been reading long python package docs since i was 15

[rancid snow]

the trick is to loop reading docs into your hyperfixation loop

[obtuse fern]

Using man tool then using slash-searching is a useful trick

/<term>

[west venture]

I do read a specific part of docs when I'm using a new tool in the middle of doing something I am hyper fixated on. Which makes reading that specific part of the docs in that specific context fun.

[rancid snow]

Yeah, expanding your special fixation to include related boring stuff is unfortunately a lot easier than trying to do that for dishes 😭

[west venture]

I am from there and we eat rice

[rustic carbon]

oh whoops. i thought you meant white rice.

is diabetes a huge problem in traditional Asian households??

[west venture]

It really is. Diabetes is a leading disease even among the young generation here. Bc all we do is eat a bunch of rice and be on screens

[sharp shuttle]

Consider its probably not the rice

[gloomy patio]

"here" earth?

nearly everyone is either fat or starving lol

I'm working my way up to type 8 diabetes

[rustic carbon]

the adoption of things like American fast food.

[rustic carbon]

or just soda.

[sharp shuttle]

This has never been an issue in the past, I think it is purely correlation, and I think it's the drinks

all countries are having spikes in diabetes

its not the rice

[stable tiger]

hey guys

its eugenics time im going to breed my dog

[rustic carbon]

Japan is a blue zone country. lots of white rice, from what i understand.

[west venture]

Do you know why? Because in the past people here munched on rice but also worked there asses off so all that glucose was actually used up by the muscles. Now we eat as much and don't do nearly as much work, causing a massive glucose spike bc muscles don't need that fuel.

[rustic carbon]

(blue zone = most centenials from what i recall)

[iron galleon]

with another dog right

😳

[stable tiger]

😊

[silver forge]

yay eugenics

[rustic carbon]

that tracks. it has to be proportional to your caloric needs.

[west venture]

Yeah

[sharp shuttle]

I am aware of the sedentary lifestyles, i too am guilty of sitting at a desk for 12 hours a day very often. I still blame, almost exclusively, the random kool-aid products people drink nonstop

[rustic carbon]

yeah, my money's on that too

[stable tiger]

that's like saying can any carb cause diabetes

like, yes? but in excess of your TDEE

and for a sustained period of time

[rustic carbon]

speaking of carbs. i need some... brb. gonna cook ze pasta

[west venture]

Also we don't drink as much energy drinks lol. I don't think I've drank one in the past 2 months

[sharp shuttle]

when i say energy drinks, i mean anything flavored, not water

at least in america, nearly all products have caffeine in them

i am speaking biasly

[west venture]

Maybe

We drink tea and that's it

[sharp shuttle]

but i know japan, china, korea, etc drink tons of non-water products

[west venture]

That too not with sugar for the most part

[sharp shuttle]

i think those drinks cause organ failure that leads to the diabetes you are associating with rice

rice could be the catalyst but the drinks cause the issue

[west venture]

You mean tea causes diabetes? No

[sharp shuttle]

why not?

you have no idea whats in boxed tea

[stable tiger]

lifestyle is completely irrelevant as long as you are under TDEE and not storing excess glucose that isn't used in exercise, any carb would do this

[west venture]

Uh....I do bc I work in a tea factory

[stable tiger]

food choice is irrelevant

[west venture]

Tea is our #1 export here

[stable tiger]

some foods may have higher thermic effect but subtracting 100 calories from the 2000 calories of pure dogshit slop you shove in your body without moving is the issue, not the food

Heavy Metals: Studies have found lead, arsenic, and aluminum in brewed tea, largely absorbed by the plants from the soil.
Pesticides: Some teas contain traces of pesticides, though often within regulated limits.
Tea Bag Quality: Some tea bags (especially nylon or plastic ones) can release plasticizers or microplastics, though this is considered a minor source of exposure compared to food.
Mitigation: Purchasing high-quality brands, opting for organic, and limiting consumption of very high-volume, low-cost bagged tea can reduce exposure. ```

[stable tiger]

ie; 99% of olympic athletes eat high carb, sugary diets to meet their massive requirement of caloric intake; however, they're also doing like 6 hours of cardio and then strength training following this

[sharp shuttle]

You cant know whats in the tea packets, even if its marginal

[stable tiger]

it's like being a cig addict

a pack of day = cancer

a dart a month = ur prolly fine

[west venture]

Yk factories grow tea in extremely controlled environmentss right?

[sharp shuttle]

I am american, who has worked many ICS/OT facilities, and I know the shit they get up to

i highly doubt its different just because you live in a different country

[stable tiger]

you have a much more likely chance to find heavy metals in your diet from everything else you eat as opposed to tea tbh

ie; if you take a multi vitamin good chances are you're ingesting metals

[sharp shuttle]

Its not the point, but yes I agree - my point is simply i think drinks are causing issues

food, if you are american

[turbid bloom]

anyone here completed the entire CJCA path?

[west venture]

Again too much of anything is bad, including tea, but Rice specifically is turned into pure glucose rapidly. Eating white rice is like eating a plate of sugar. You cannot tell me eating a plate of sugar daily won't increase the risk of diabetes lol

[sharp shuttle]

but drinks universally

[turbid bloom]

or atleast pentesting in a nutshell module?

[stable tiger]

i think our bigger issue is the overglorification of sugar as a sweet alternative, no sugar coke and regular coke are very similar yet most people buy the full sugar version just cos it is

furthermore, most people live dogshit lifestyles bcos life is easy

[sharp shuttle]

absolutely

[west venture]

If you're american, sure it's probably the drinks

[stable tiger]

if you're american it's your culture

your small coke at maccas is our large

unironically

[sharp shuttle]

poison is our food here

required for the medical industrial complex

[stable tiger]

overconsumpation and underactivity is much more likely to be the health issue causer as opposed to the outlier of trace doses of dangerous ingredients

[west venture]

Yup

All that sugar needs to go somewhere

It hangs around in the blood stream if it's not absorbed by the muscles

Which causes the body to dump insulin to reabsorb the gluecose

Which repeated over years causes insulin resistance where the release of insulin no longer effectively re absorbs the glucose

Which causes damage to the kidneys

And eventually kidney faliure

[stable tiger]

all that sugar is fine as long as its within your maintenance range of caloric intake

or yk

just exercise

[iron galleon]

[west venture]

The answer is no

hi guys I am gonna ace my electronics midterm

I think I really am learning this stuff extremely well

have a week to study and its going good

how are you guys?

[sharp shuttle]

good luck dude

[gaunt gale]

ya its good

then after the midterm I'm gonna finish web proxies htb module and then work on the next module but take notes this time. I may take a few days to take notes on web proxies module before moving onto next one (because I should have taken notes while I was doing it)

anyway, how are you guys?

I'll chat for a few minutes while on break and then gotta get back to work

[turbid goblet]

hi guys I am gonna fail my PNPT exam

I think I really am not understand hacking well

have a month to study and its going horribly

how are you guys?

[supple plume]

Does htb have any module about WAFs?

[neat cipher]

Best of luck with it. Knuckle down. Try and spend more time practicing, getting your notes in order, and doing the exercises

[gaunt gale]

yes they do

[supple plume]

Where

[gaunt gale]

its in CWES or CWEE learning path I think

I forget which which is kind of silly since I am doing CWES

[supple plume]

I don't think so

I'll check again

[gaunt gale]

but ya

I guarantee they have a module for it

[turbid goblet]

appreciate u big bro. i was kinda trolling tho lol

[supple plume]

❌

[gaunt gale]

hold on let me see if I can find it

[supple plume]

I guarantee is not in CWEE/CWES

[jagged storm]

I think there was some section of a module

[raven rain]

there's no module dedicated to WAFs specifically, but they do mention WAFs from time to time

[gaunt gale]

maybe that's what I was thinking of maybe its embedded in other modules

[gaunt gale]

ok in which modules

[jagged storm]

Yeah, something basic, at best

Just search academy for WAF

[gaunt gale]

ok so maybe pro labs cover more of the WAF stuff?

ya ok

[raven rain]

IIRC the SQLmap module mentions bypassing WAFs

with some specific sqlmap flags that you can use

[supple plume]

I need to learn about waf bypass specifically

buying the sqlmap module won't help me much

[gaunt gale]

maybe that's more of a pro lab thing

which is more advanced

[supple plume]

I don't think so

[gaunt gale]

ok I thought the pro labs include more stealth, etc.

and phishing related topics like go phish

compared to academy

not saying that's all pro labs are

[supple plume]

either way I need to study it

[gaunt gale]

ya ok well, maybe bypassing WAFs is advanced and they don't want to immediately introduce it

like maybe its just not beginner level

or whatever

[supple plume]

it's not beginner level but I thought they would have it

[gaunt gale]

I thought so too

it may be included within other modules

like weaved in here and there

as opposed to being in a dedicated module

[supple plume]

thm has a module but no way I am going to use thm for anything

[gaunt gale]

I agree with this

[hoary dawn]

think you know pain

[sharp shuttle]

https://tenor.com/view/pain-naruto-patrick-star-gif-21322435

[rancid snow]

the problem is waf bypassing is an ever evolving field. Any course about it is immediately outdated at time of release

You can look at general strategies of whats worked in the past to develop your own, but youre not likely to find something that promises to teach bypasses and have it be effective

[jagged storm]

Same is true for maldev, but building the general skillset (even on outdated information) can help you to understand the mindset.

[mighty rapids]

how we all doing

[jagged storm]

https://tenor.com/view/eternal-torture-and-misery-pain-meme-anime-serial-experiments-lain-gif-12103720143394403860

[mighty rapids]

yea same

[supple plume]

yeah but at least the basics would help

but yeah i will have to figure it out myself

[jagged storm]

I'm actually surprised it isn't in CWEE. I would have expected it to be.

[tame gust]

i've a question is it legit legal for someone doing academy modules on stream ?

[hoary dawn]

prob not the ones that cost like a subscription

[maiden anvil]

FWIW I dont work for or represent HTB but generally paid content is a no go

[hoary dawn]

if ur blur game is on point

[tame gust]

thats what i tought too, but found some streams that actually does

lol

on youtube

[hoary dawn]

it flies over lotta peoples heads im sure

[tame gust]

but let me check if its an actually free module first

or not

[maiden anvil]

it's also kinda weird because THM doesnt really care, basically free advertising for them anyway

[turbid goblet]

yo do people even bother doing manual windows local enumeration

like idk if i should be good at it or just winpeas and call it a day

[tame gust]

nvm its a Tier0 module

[rustic carbon]

haven't done a windows box in a minute. but yeah. i would browse the filesystem prior to running scripts/modules to enumerate exploits. sometimes something obvious stands out.

[maiden anvil]

I have had to do it in a job interview for red team before

[rustic carbon]

usually start with whoami /all

[maiden anvil]

worth to learn it just for that IMO

[tame gust]

i do manual enum first, while running some automated script in the background

[rustic carbon]

that's actually way smarter, lol

[maiden anvil]

cyberops2025 knows whats up

[turbid goblet]

yeah whoami /priv is all i do and if i dont see anything i just drop winpeas but i feel like im not really getting it lol

[frail turtle]

I dont think it's a flex to use Cachy OS right now

[tame gust]

i try to see if there's an AV first, or some logger, outside of CTF's ofc

[rustic carbon]

for sure. that makes a ton of sense.

[tame gust]

been using omarchy for a while now its kinda nice

ngl

with some tweaking ofc

[rustic carbon]

omarchy is a linux distro, right?

[tame gust]

yeah arch based

[rustic carbon]

i heard good things about it from what i recall.

nice

i run Debian

[hoary dawn]

the completions plugin is pretty neat on zsh terminal

[rustic carbon]

was looking at Devuan, but everything in regular Debian just works. no real reason for me to switch aside from complaining about systemd, which hasn't screwed me yet...

[maiden anvil]

if I have rdp I like opening about pc to see if some av or edr is installed because it's normal user behavior`
driverquery is bad opsec

[hoary dawn]

learning all a million commands brb

[rustic carbon]

that's really smart, haha, vs. registry, etc.

[tame gust]

i mean if i had the pations to rice something and make it look that pretty and techy i would, but mostly just runs whatever would just get the job done with no problems

[frail turtle]

Devuan is becoming popular

[rustic carbon]

it's really cool. but i disable it so i'm forced to type the commands. also, better for opsec. but when you're starting out, i think it's fantastic for memory. eventually, you want to practice "cold" typing them though. even if you have to peek at your command history.

[rustic carbon]

yeah, it's been around since i think 2017 ish. but i'd rather stick with Debian unless something (in the black swan event) blows up.

was thinking about switching to BSD, but my current learning objectives can't justify that.

[hoary dawn]

isnt that the auto suggestions plugin

[tame gust]

why it look 2009~ ich ?

dont get me wrong i like it

[rustic carbon]

it's in your .zshrc file in /home/<user>/

[rustic carbon]

there's a part mentioning "auto" or "complet" or something.

maybe "history"

[tame gust]

i dont get the "Systemd-Free" part tho

or like what SysVinit is bringing to the table ?

i gotta look into that

[rustic carbon]

yeah, i know. but my current goal is to learn unix sys internals. which seems like a good fit, but i want to analyze the data structs / architecture and code it. so i'll just stick with debian, qemu, and C

thats nice, but trying to read strucs from header files was always a pain for me lol

[turbid goblet]

@hoary dawn did u win devel

[hoary dawn]

yea tahts the autosuggestion plugin the completion plugin just is a legend of commands based off what you got typed in the autosuggestion is what lets you use right arrow to complete commands without typing based on history

[rustic carbon]

yeah, it can get messy for sure.

spent 2 hours messing with it just to find out I can just use John the Ripper. FML

[hoary dawn]

i dont think itd be a package that fixes that if its todo with time

[glad crystal]

A legacy NTLM password cracking tool

[hoary dawn]

old tech goated fr

[glad crystal]

hashcat was fighting me on this one.

John the Ripper seems to be moving a little faster while doing the same job as ophcrack

Im aware but have you tried doing NTLM passwords on hashcat?

[gilded lotus]

I switched to my kali on bare metal. And still had the problem.

[glad crystal]

I know the command lol

but who has 6 hours to blow waiting to crack 8 passwords?

I got shit to do lol

[rustic carbon]

yeah, so kali has a built-in thing to keep the clock the same. OHHHH SHITBALLS!!!! WAIT! do you use VirtualBox? there's a setting in there too to disable that syncs your host BIOS/UEFI clock to the VM. disable that if that applies...

[glad crystal]

I am on real hardware

that was with a 4060 bro

6 hours.

[rustic carbon]

oh wait, you just said baremetal

[hoary dawn]

disable systemd-timesyncd on the vm then do the setting on the actual virtualbox there prob is one

[rustic carbon]

yeah, it's the package/config in Kali.

uninstall the one that keeps it the same, install the one that lets you set it.

[glad crystal]

From a CTF challenge.

Bruhhhh

[turbid goblet]

if it does im not doing it

[glad crystal]

The crack isn't time-based. You need VRAM to crack passwords lol

[gilded lotus]

I did the box in a VM and bare metal I saw the switch that I needed to turn off in the VM.

[ocean marsh]

I only use john when its an encrypted file tbh

[glad crystal]

Because hashcat was trying to parse a shit ton of combinations?

Tried best64 and dive.

they both exhausted.

[ocean marsh]

Something makes me doubt this so much

[glad crystal]

and its best66 now

Yeah, okay lol.

[ocean marsh]

How’s that in a ctf brother

[glad crystal]

good lord lmao

Yeah, I'm just making this shit up. 😂

Why would I fucking make this up? lol

[ocean marsh]

[glad crystal]

No, your comment was just dumb lol

[ocean marsh]

I could never say such a thing about you my dear

[ocean marsh]

Yeah yeah

Sorry big brain

[glad crystal]

Has nothing to do with brains at this point. You doubted that I am doing an NTLM password cracking challenge lol

[ocean marsh]

Will eat junk and watch something
