Whatever red team path you choose, at the end, you will end up with binary exploitation

#

Just realized that

west venture
#

Why

timber shard
#

Being a monster IN AD & Web
While being the worst in pwn is funny

west venture
#

What's pwn

timber shard
# west venture Why

Some web vulnerabilites and AD environments would require you to exploit buffer overflows, UAF, bypassing PIE&ASLR and some security restrictions

west venture
#

You could just stick to the ones that don't

timber shard
#

For example dante, the easiest pro lab

It requires you to exploit a buffer overflow

timber shard
#

But when you get into business you will suffer

#

You don't choose what work you should do.

web vulns requiring pwn is new to me though

timber shard
#

What is more crazy

west venture
#

What is pwn?

timber shard
#

Is that you might encounter a corporation that uses a compiled Web backend, and they don't trust you that much so they don't give you the source code.

Instead, they give you the compiled binary, where you must reverse engineer it to understand how the application works under the hood.

Hi ,

I’m currently working through the Linux Fundamentals – Section 6 module and I’m a bit confused about one of the questions.

The question is:
“What is the name of the network interface that MTU is set to 1500?”

Here’s my situation:

  • I’m using the Pwnbox provided by Hack The Box
  • I also downloaded the VPN files and connected from my local machine (Mac)
  • I was given a target IP as well

What I tried:

  • On the Pwnbox, I ran ip link and got ens3 with MTU 1500 → but this was marked as incorrect
  • On my local machine, I checked with ifconfig and found interfaces like en0 and utun0 with MTU 1500 → also incorrect

Now I’m not sure:

  • Should this question be answered from the Pwnbox, my local machine, or the target system?
  • Is there something specific I’m missing about how to interpret this question?

I’m still pretty new to Hack The Box and Linux in general, so I might be misunderstanding something basic here.

I’d really appreciate any clarification or hints on what exactly is expected here 🙏

Thanks in advance!

I started the CPTS in February last year and got my cert in September, so a total of 9 months given I was enroled in uni for the first half of that and took a couple long vacations.

# warped plank including the exam?

The exam came out in September, I started the course in November, and I think I started my exam in the beginning of February. Like 14 days after I failed waiting on results, and passed on second try. Got passing results on March 3rd

I took some weeks off to just do anything but hacking

It was especially lame the way they would ramp up at the middle of the course with the AD module, and then followed it up with a ton of boring/easy modules

#

Yeah that makes no sense for me

#

AD should be one of the last modules

#

Its just there in the middle of nowhere

Does anyone know anything about how the hell crypto actually works here and maybe in DM or something so it doesn’t seem like I’m shilling a coin 😂

hoary dawn
#

I created a coin that has a market cap of $60k right now and I am not holding a single bit of that, neither is nobody else. So what does that mean?

#

The bonding curve is at $60k

#

I accidentally scammed the app I believe

bronze lion
#

whts the price of 1 coin? @hoary dawn

hoary dawn
#

I used mayhem mode to add volatility to the token upon deployment and in the mist of mayhem mode going on, somehow my initial $10 deposit turned into $480

#

And then mayhem mode was stuck in the coin with $66.6k position

#

As the only holder

hoary dawn
#

Then I just bought back into it for $8 just now just in case some weird ass black magic happens.. because a coin with zero holders somehow is 2% away from graduating to the dex ..

#

I don’t know. I just feel like this is weird. Like, $60k liquidity was just given to this coin out of a mistake?

bronze lion
#

the value is theoretical, u know tht right?

azure remnant
bronze lion
hoary dawn
#

Well it was 60k being held by the “Mayhem Mode” bot which is like their AI trading bot I guess for when you enable mayhem mode on a coin, you literally have to provide the mayhem mode with your own money and everything so it’s just weird it’s like a giant pyramid scheme 😂

#

But then I noticed out of nowhere, cuz I was curious I stayed checking on it here and there, now it doesn’t say Mayhem Mode there, but it says Bonding Curve

hoary dawn
#

Yea it’s a giant chain link of legal money laundering

#

😂

jagged storm
hoary dawn
#

But when a bonding curve almost reaches 100% the thing is the coin gets put on bigger platforms like Raydiim

@warped plank Oie dude. Did you notice the fruit in Korea is 10000 times better?

Yes that’s why I’m so confused 😂

Where it says bonding curve it said Mayhem Mode at first then I guess cuz nobody played with the coin the app just took a L?

how do I wipe windows safely

ocean marsh
#

use hacker recipes for boxes

#

and you will truly learn by doing research

i will lose my linux too

ocean marsh
#

lmfao

frigid mountain
#

muh linux

molten bobcat
#

Why would you lose Linux is it dual booting

meager kernel
molten bobcat
#

Undoing dual booting

#

Sounds

#

Like a pain in the ass

meager kernel
#

delete option

ocean marsh
#

cant you just choose to format a partition and then you expand your linux drive?

jagged storm
#

Uh, can you even resize btrfs?

molten bobcat
#

I only know about windows drive format options

frigid mountain
#

seems like an issue that could be solved with help of AI

molten bobcat
#

Or reading

frigid mountain
#

^

meager kernel
#

so what i want is to completely nuke windows, delete all its recovery partition, boot manager, everything, then resize my btrfs partition and put everything into it

frigid mountain
#

well you have to read AI output

jagged storm
#

I didn't think you could resize btrfs

molten bobcat
meager kernel
#

should i do it tho

molten bobcat
#

I don't know how to safely perform this operation without breaking shit lmao

meager kernel
#

is it a good idea to completely remove windows

ocean marsh
#

use AI

molten bobcat
#

I'd start by backing up your important shit to start woth

#

With

jagged storm
#

You might need to format the whole thing, to make your partition use the space

ocean marsh
#

I prefer to get shot than to dual boot in the same drive

#

worst experience ever

molten bobcat
#

Just to make sure you won't lose anything if you end up having to say screw it and reinstall lol

jagged storm
ocean marsh
#

thats the thing rat

#

one update and everything is over

#

it overwrites the bootloader out of nowhere

#

sooo shit

jagged storm
#

You don't need this old thing - I'll just delete it for you, without asking teehee

molten bobcat
#

Windows and undocumented changes my beloved

ocean marsh
#

I only use windows in a VM to test some stuff

bronze lion
#

they best thing to do now is to buy a new ssd and give the old one to me

worthy cargo
bronze lion
#

just saying

ocean marsh
#

the only use for windows besides that would be gaming with anticheats

hacker recipes

there's a lot of good content out there about AD

ocean marsh
muted olive
#

anything microsoft = slop

ocean marsh
#

idk if everything in the path scope is there

#

but it is super complete

#

the website has a looooot of the content presented in CAPE path

#

and they also link some pretty good material

late juniper
#

Ciao! So, let me get this straight.....Academy, Labs and Let's Defend all have their own subscriptions, and it's not all covered under one cost? This is gonna work out expensive! 😬

muted olive
#

Havent checked it out in a while

#

Have to see if they have anything new

muted olive
#

idk about letsdefend, I think that comes with labs

summer urchin
muted olive
#

thing about hacker recipes is that its too many buzzwords for a beginner

ocean marsh
#

oh thats true

muted olive
#

incredibly useful either way but I had to chatgpt a lot of things

#

but still

#

very useful

ocean marsh
#

some introduction would help for sure

#

but doing this extra research you learn even more

#

:)

muted olive
#

@ocean marsh have you done any of the pro labs?

ocean marsh
#

zephyr and I did around 30% of offshore iirc

summer urchin
#

oh wow
it (hacker recipes) has so much stuff
I think the only problem is that it doesn't have like labs/challenges/tests (but its completely free for everybody, so I don't expect them to have it)

#

offshore was hell, super unstable

muted olive
#

you should try cybernetics

#

its cruel

ocean marsh
#

Ohhh man I really wanna try cybernetics

muted olive
#

Im currently doing it and got like 4 flags

#

but its super insane

ocean marsh
#

but the sub is so expensive lmfao

ocean marsh
#

I really wanna focus on evasion and tooling

#

more advanced stuff

#

But for now I'm re-doing CWEE path to get better at web

muted olive
#

cybernetics has lots of evasion

ocean marsh
#

with portswigger too

muted olive
#

i was really annoyed today because I was trying an attack which I saw was possible with bloodhound

#

didnt work for around 12-13 hours

#

turns out I had misread it and was trying the attack from service account A

#

when in reality it was from service account B

ocean marsh
#

AJDHASKJDKASJNDKA

#

thats the worst feeling everrr bro

#

you feel so stupid

muted olive
#

I cried

ocean marsh
#

dude what makes me mad is unstable env

#

like I had to try the same exploits 9172321931 times on offshore

#

for them to work

#

worst thing ever is when that happens during an exam

#

jfc

muted olive
#

same some stuff is very inconsistent, works 1 time out of 200 attempts

ocean marsh
#

yeah true

muted olive
#

I literally made a script to bruteforce it and it hit on one of the tries lol

#

saving that for the rest of the lab

#

because I'll have to do that every day to setup the chain again

#

thats the worst part of it

ocean marsh
#

I wanna try all the prolabs, but I need to save some money for that

#

the worst part of something not working is that you need to reset the env and set up everything again

muted olive
#

I had $45 in credits so I spent $4 for my sub. I'm trying to make the most of it in one month

ocean marsh
#

pivots

#

ocean marsh

nice bro, you got this

#

you're a smart fella

muted olive

After reading whole day

ocean marsh
#

Yeah the first time you get introduced to ad

muted olive
#

if its like ten shells, its so exhausting

ocean marsh
#

is a lot to take in

ocean marsh
meager kernel
ocean marsh
#

Bro I try to never stop middle exploitation

#

or something

#

until I have creds

#

otherwise you have to do 19823912 steps again

#

to get to the same place

meager kernel
#

Ive had easier time understanding original greek text of Plato and Aristotle than understanding AD

muted olive
#

I try not to get burnt out because you spend hours working on a flag and you get it and you want to take a break

#

but youre like nooo, the tunnel will break and youll have to setup everything again

#

keep doing

ocean marsh
#

lmfao yeahhhh

#

I was so mad when I had to stop offshore and go to uni

#

knowing that I would lose my session

muted olive
#

felt

#

at least it gets easier progressively, you collect payloads and hashes and copy paste

ocean marsh
#

I skipped more classes bc of htb more than anything

ocean marsh
icy viper
#

What rank do I need to get to share images lol

ocean marsh
#

I think its because you get used to the env

#

like you get in the zone quickly

ocean marsh
icy viper
#

What rank is that how many from 1?

muted olive
ocean marsh
#

jump box?

icy viper
#

How many ranks between noob and hacker lol

muted olive
#

the initial box where you get the shell to reach the internal network

icy viper
#

1337? 😎

ocean marsh

Can I reach without subscribing?

ocean marsh

my bad I'm slow today

ocean marsh

#

I'm gonna subscribe one day just doing another course at the moment and money tight

#

I wished I went here

#

Altho idk about the different tiers

ocean marsh

I was on THM but one of many who stopped after AI stuff

u know its bad when

muted olive
#

but typically the interpreter isnt installed on pro labs

ocean marsh

no

#

its remote

muted olive
muted olive

#

Should I go for the lower or middle tier when I subscribe

ocean marsh
#

yeah man, the more you can do remotely the better

#

I think you can install it with uv

muted olive
#

you know what, ive been meaning to make this thing where you run the entire python interpreter in-memory

#

and execute any payloads you want

#

I think AMSI doesnt pick it up but I might be wrong

#

in redacted, it was installed and all my python shells ran perfectly without getting caught by defender

mb

ocean marsh
#

I hate doing things locally

#

transfering files

#

all that

muted olive
#

lol

#

tfw you evade AV and get SYSTEM, but theres no flag in the admin desktop

ocean marsh
#

that is depressing

so thats good

They have the CPTS role

I lied

..oh kek

ocean marsh

i submitted my first attempt yesterday

muted olive

nice good luck

#

getting cape before cpts is

ocean marsh

I lost some good time bc I got super sick so I only focused on the flags

#

I did no report

#

I got the passing score and submitted an empty pdf

muted olive

:(

jagged storm
muted olive
#

well at least you have tons of time to find flags 13 and 14

#

and report

ocean marsh
#

yeahh thats for sure

#

I dont mind 2 attempts tbh

#

the exam alone is already enough to destroy any ego

jagged storm
#

Even if you report as you go, it takes forever to finish. Doing it at the end is gonna take like 3 days lol
