is it possible to reset a room's answers? like if you wanna redo it
@naive dust not atm, but they may add this in future.

barren birch
#

@naive dust which room would you like reset?

naive dust
#

the whole "offensive pentesting" learn path, former OSCP room

#

Had to stop my studies for a while due work so I decided to resume recently.

#

But if this is too much work it's ok. I am actually redoing vulnersity right now.

#

@naive dust not atm, but they may add this in future.
@lilac ocean Thanks, that would be a great feature

lilac ocean
#

I think you may can ask the room creator to reset a specific room for you. Not sure though

naive dust
#

It's ok, I will continue like this anyway, Thanks

barren birch
#

@naive dust sorry -- been busy. What's your THM username? I'll reset them when I get home πŸ™‚

Try another method of connecting to port 80, one that will give you a verbose output of the connection information

No, this is meant to be done with nmap

hey guys my searchsploit tool isnt working

#

its not giving me an output when i give it commands in the right syntax

eager fulcrum

No results = no ouput

#

searchsploit changed recently

#

Maybe try putting the search argument in quotations because you have a space.

eager fulcrum
#

Although it doesn't look like that's the issue

as one part is an argument for -t

How do I terminate one of my bots? @deep trellis @vapid dawn

barren birch
#

@winged valley No need to ping the admins

#

What's the problem?

winged valley
#

Oh my bad, when I go to terminate a bot it says the owner has made this private

eager fulcrum
#

You're not terminating bots

#

You're talking about rooms.

winged valley
barren birch
#

Ok, in this case you might need an admin. @deep trellis -- mind looking into this one?
Got a machine open in the welcome room, which has since been made private

#

I'm guessing it will expire in an hour either way

winged valley
#

Yeah I just went through the tutorial kinda thing then went onto pentesting and it said I had a machine so I went to shut it down and said that

#

I don't mind waiting it out.

barren birch
#

Probably worth Skidy taking a look either way, but yeah, it'll almost certainly expire by itself

winged valley
#

Alright thanks man

Fixed

Alright thanks man

"Uh-oh! You are either already in this room or are banned." anyting i can do to fix this?

naive dust
#

searchsploit changed recently
@eager fulcrum what does that mean and are there similar tools that i can use

eager fulcrum
#

Do some googling

#

And it shouldn't matter

naive dust
#

@eager fulcrum so i noticed that the searchsploit tool used the exploit_db that msfconsole aslo uses in its database, i . tried to find that file in my system by doing the find command but cant find it, could the exploit db also be hidden somewhere else?

eager fulcrum
#

I'm having a week off

toxic python
#

@naive dust that means dont ask him questions he need to recooperate

naive dust
#

sorry 😒

toxic python
#

its ok, i still love you

naive dust
#

aww πŸ₯°

toxic python
#

@naive dust /usr/share/exploitdb/

#

thats where exploit db is on kali

naive dust
#

its not in there

#

i already looked

naive dust
toxic python
#

try sudo apt update && sudo apt -y install exploitdb and also move this to a different channel, this isnt a thm related tech problem

naive dust
#

alright thank you very much and it does it matter which directory i install the package in

toxic python
#

i would do /usr/share/exploitdb cuz thats what its normally in

naive dust
#

i dont even have an exploit db in my share dir

#

what channel should i move this tooπŸ˜…

toxic python
#

do /usr/share

hello all, new to tryhackme
my ssh session into a machine is freezing frequently.. is this common / any remedies?

toxic python
#

Try to terminate and redeploy?

violet escarp
#

did that..worked temporarily but still having the issue

eager fulcrum
#

!multivpn

#
TryHackMe
β€’ Step 1

Type ps aux | grep openvpn into your terminal and press enter

β€’ Step 2

If there's more than one line (and the second doesn't have "grep" in it), do the following steps

β€’ Step 3

Type killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter

β€’ Step 4

Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>

violet escarp
#

attempted this twice

#

for some reason, every time I connect to the vpn, it outputs two lines (excluding grep)

#

the first is sudo openvpn <.ovpn>
the second openvpn <.ovpn>

eager fulcrum
#

Yeah that's fine

#

That's one sudo process and one openvpn process

violet escarp
#

still frozen

#

gets stuck at different points as well
sometimes during login process mid-banner

eager fulcrum
#

Change VPN server.

Hi guys

#

Can someone help me to go next from this screen please

kindred estuary
#

I am facing issue in opening web URLs hosted on deployed machines. Have tried with multiple machines and webpages fail to load in browser. However i am able to connect same URL using wget, Curl, telnet etc. Dirbuster also fails to connect. have tried vulnversity and splunk

zealous yoke
#

I know for vulnversity the webserver isn't on the default port, so you will have to specify that when connecting via your browser

#

Are you running your browser through a proxy like burp by any chance?

kindred estuary
#

Yes trying on 3333 and not using any proxy.

silk oriole
#

nmap port scanning is so slow

kindred estuary

@zealous yoke Tried with different network and now i am able to connect. Means something on network is blocking access. Is it actually possible when i am connected to OVPN?

And well after that, it puts me this :

then you did something wrong

#

ps aux | grep openvpn
sudo killall openvpn

naive dust

It worked but After
sudo killall openvpn
They put me:

then it should be fine

#

no multi vpn is running

Ok

So I do the same thing again ?

just connect now

kindred estuary
#

@zealous yoke Tried with different network and now i am able to connect. Means something on network is blocking access. Is it actually possible when i am connected to OVPN? @leaden token Can you please suggest something? Is is possible to switch ovpn to TCP?

zealous yoke
#

Thanks for reporting back. At the openvpn servers are UDP and not TCP - It's been extensively requested and is being worked on

leaden token
#

yes it is certainly coming soon

#

for now, just find another ways to connect via UDP

kindred estuary
#

@leaden token @zealous yoke I solved the problem by adding following lines to my configuration file.
tun-mtu 1400
mssfix 1360

leaden token
#

nice!

#

this might be a good temporary option πŸ€”

kindred estuary
#

@leaden token This has definitely helped. Two days back i tried "Splunk" room and webpage never loaded. I just gave up on that thinking that machine is low resources since i was a free user then, Had some other issues with ssh getting stuck as well. Then last night i had subscribed. Just now i tried Splunk again and guess what web page is loading fine now. So all good for now πŸ™‚

leaden token

good job!!

i'll suggest your fix to those with similar problem

Hey, can Burpsuite be installed in a Raspberry Pi?

#

I saw that it requires Java, but I din't know if there is a Java version compatible with ARM architecture

barren birch
#

Short answer @blazing patrol, a little research goes a long way πŸ™‚

blazing patrol
#

Thanks! In the Burp Suite download page I'm supose to download the JAR file right?

#

And, I'm a litte new to linux, I have the tarball of Java JDK 8 for arm32-hflt, but, how I install it?

barren birch
#

This for the Jython thing?

blazing patrol
#

What is that?

barren birch
#

Oh, hang on, Burpsuite download page, not the burpsuite room

#

Raspbian is Debian based, from memory

#

Why not use apt to download it?

blazing patrol
#

Can I?

#

I had no idea

barren birch
#

No reason why not, provided the Raspbian repos have it πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

#

Give it a try

blazing patrol
#

Well, I'm running Debian, but not Raspbian

#

I'm running Kali

barren birch
#

The Kali repos definitely have it

#

Give that a shot

blazing patrol
#

And the package name?

barren birch
blazing patrol
#

ok thanks for the help

barren birch
#

Np πŸ™‚

blazing patrol
#

Do you need BS Profesional edition for the BS room?

#

Or just the Community edition

barren birch
#

Community does just fine for most CTFs

blazing patrol
#

Nice :)

barren birch
#

In all honesty I've never used the Professional, but apparently it's amazing

blazing patrol
#

It seems

barren birch
#

Just, expensive as heck πŸ˜†

blazing patrol
#

How much?

#

As Pro Tools?

barren birch
#

Β£319 per year

blazing patrol
#

Oh is a service

#

My god

barren birch
#

It's a license

#

I mean, there are much worse tools for price

#

Nessus is a nightmare

#

And Burp is apparently worth it. But not as a student 😁

blazing patrol
#
root@kali:~# apt search burpsuite
Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
#

well

barren birch
#

Different repos for the ARM version. How irritating

blazing patrol
#

So?

#

I have to change my repos?

barren birch
#

I wouldn't change repos. Frankendebians are painful

#

Check the stats of your Pi in that ^^

#

If it's got the stats to run burpsuite, then yeah, install it manually

blazing patrol
#

Do you refer to specs?

barren birch
#

I do

blazing patrol
#

I have plenty of disk space

#

But not 2GB of RAM

barren birch
#

Ah, it might struggle then

blazing patrol
#

But I have more than 2 cores

#

So, install manually?

barren birch
#

Give it a shot, yeah

#

No guarantee how well it'll work without the recommended RAM, but you can try it

blazing patrol
#

Yeah but I still don't know the pkg name

#

burpsuite/kali-rolling?

barren birch
#

I'd suggest getting a Java environment setup, then using the JAR version of Burpsuite

blazing patrol
#

Oh, ok

barren birch
#

That might help

#

Not sure what Pi you're using, but that should be similar

#

Ignore me

#

Misread the title

blazing patrol
#

Yes

barren birch
#

@grave leaf I know you do a lot of stuff with Pi's -- Burpsuite?

grave leaf
#

Someone else was just asking about this in another forum. Short answer is it does work. I need to spin up a new Kali image to remember. I know on 2019.4 I had to change default java version, and run in from a .jar file command. I thought in the 2020.1 version it ran with no effort.

#

Ok thanks for the info

#

helloo

#

i still can't even i change the dns on my android device

#

@barren birch

barren birch
#

As I said, I'd recommend doing it on your router

naive dust
#

#

#

i;m using my phone as my router

#

i'm using the dns changer app anits still not working

#

barren birch
#

You mean you're using mobile data?

naive dust
#

yupp

barren birch
#

I mean, I have an option to change DNS in my phone settings -- it'll be different for each phone.

naive dust
#

what is the keywords ?

#

for changing it

#

is germany blocking the site that contain the image to ?

#

i change my dns to germany but still nothing was changed on the images

#

i change it with apps tho

Oh so it's 255.255.0.0

#

And it's has a cider of /16

#

You could use nmap to do a ping sweap of the subnet

fiery kraken
#

So something like nmap -sP 100.105.1-255.1-255?

eager fulcrum
#

There's a deploy button

#

Don't scan the whole THM network

#

Deploy the machine

#

With the friendly green deploy button

fiery kraken
#

Ahhhh I'm dumb lol

#

Thanks!

eager fulcrum
#

@ivory kite Please make sure the advice you're giving is good advice

#

@fiery kraken Make sure you're connected to the VPN

barren birch
#

(Or at the very least, sensible advice in the current context)

pearl slate
ivory kite
#

Try nmap -sn 100.105.0.0/16

eager fulcrum
#

No

barren birch
#

Mate, no

eager fulcrum
#

That's not how it works, at all

pearl slate
eager fulcrum
#

The machine won't be on their LAN.

#

I know you're trying to help, but you're misguiding them

ivory kite
#

Ok I'll stop talking sorry

barren birch
#

For the record, we get that you're trying to be helpful here, and thank you for that πŸ™‚
Just, please make sure you know 100% that the advice you're giving is relevant and useful.
It just makes it 10x harder to fix the problem if the person has been confused beforehand

#

Thank you though πŸ™‚

pearl slate
#

ermm hello

eager fulcrum
#

@vapid dawn is the x64 room meant to be private?

barren birch
#

That was privated because it needs improved, iirc

#

Robin's working on it, from memory

pearl slate
#

so it will make its comeback?

eager fulcrum
#

There will be a better version

barren birch
#

Almost certainly, yeah

pearl slate
#

dope, it will be posted in announcements when out?

eager fulcrum
#

Yep, as all rooms are

barren birch
#

I mean, probably -- it could be quiet announced, being an older one

pearl slate
#

thats why i asked πŸ˜„

#

james, do you have something against me

eager fulcrum
#

Nope.

vapid dawn
#

oh oops

#

didn't mean to make that room private

#

but yeah, we'll re-release it when the revamp is complte

pearl slate
#

awesome! thank you! @vapid dawn

fiery kraken
#

One more question, sorry. I'm on Task 6 of Common Linux Privesec, and it says to use su with the password password, but that gives me and Authentication Failure

eager fulcrum

Ah my bad, thank you

@eager fulcrum Hello, I am trying to connect to my ssh from the command prompt windows but it shows an error: Permission denied (publickey)

eager fulcrum
#

@winged mesa Please don't just tag me when you need help.

winged mesa
#

oh sorry

eager fulcrum
#

That error means you're trying to SSH into something that you're not allowed to SSH into

#

Try SSHing into the correct thing

winged mesa
#

I'm doing what it says I should do. I'm typing in ssh shiba1@<IP>

eager fulcrum
#

You're SSHing into the VM from the VPN room, at a guess

winged mesa
#

yea

eager fulcrum
#

Terminate that VM, you need to use the VM in the Learn Linux room

winged mesa
#

the same thing happens in the linux room pepehands

eager fulcrum
#

No

#

You need to deploy the VM in that room

#

The VMs are different

#

Terminate the one in the OpenVPN room

winged mesa
#

ok

eager fulcrum
#

Deploy the one in Learn Linux

winged mesa

Anyone else having VPN issues?
@copper mist Issues how? Connectivity? Initially connecting? Cutting out?

copper mist
#

Keeps dropping connection then reinitialising- Had it a few times now, Ashu changed some settings for me last time I spoke to him

#

Doesn't seem stable for me, the connection drops if I try to scan my box i.e gobuster/sqlmap

#

Single instance of the VPN and it's an EU VIP connection

tall adder
#

Same thing. But it is fixed when I killall and restart

deep trellis
#

/CC @vapid dawn - We're going to be adding a lot of new OpenVPN servers to help with stability and connectivity.

#

Ashu has a much better understanding of the servers - I am not sure if he had updated any settings lately?

vapid dawn
#

Settings haven't been updated in a while :))

copper mist
#

Ashu has a much better understanding of the servers - I am not sure if he had updated any settings lately?
@deep trellis Last time I spoke to him about the vpn was on 19/04

vapid dawn
#

chances are it's your internet connection/some other factor

#

The way the box reacts to scans also affect this

#

Not much more we can do apart from adding more VPN servers - which we will soon

naive dust
#

why i see photos like this

zealous yoke
#

It usually means something is blocking the external URL for the images on your side of things

Could be ISP, browser extension, etc

Using the THM vpn won't fix that, no.

wary oyster
#

i need some help configuring my openvpn, i have another file with the same name because i use the same username for hackthebox, execution of the script goes well and it says its connected but refreshing the server status doesnt say connected to the server

#

does this maybe have to do with the two identical files?

toxic python
#

Don’t know but you can just rename the file anyway

#

And try again

wary oyster
#

i did

#

no luck

zealous yoke
#

I wouldn't trust the access page too much @wary oyster

#

Interacting with instances are a better test imho

wary oyster
#

it gives the initilatizion sequence complete message

zealous yoke
#

or pinging the gateway for your subnet i.e. if you have an ip with 10.8 then ping 10.8.0.1

toxic python
#

@zealous yoke I’ve never read the access page does it say that? Cuz I was just talking about what I did for mine

zealous yoke
#

No it doesn't

#

But yeah if they have two ovpn files with the same name the best idea would be to either rename them or move them into directories like HTB & THM very possible they're using the wrong config file (:

toxic python
#

I’m confused why you @β€˜d me that?

zealous yoke
#

oh right my bad

#

wrong @ I didn't see that

#

apologies (:

toxic python
#

Ah. No worries I was just puzzled haha

zealous yoke
#

hehe mb

wary oyster
#

i also did move one to a seperate THM dir

#

but still nothing

#

i could try just entering a room maybe its just an error from the thing that checks if im connected cuz the script works fine

zealous yoke

That's what I would suggest trying

#

This room is the most logical (:

Hi Having problems connecting to web once I have connected to vpn , I have tried connecting to a different sever + regenerate & download config file. I can connect to HTB vpn fine with no browsing problems . Thanks

feral dock
#

@buoyant raptor Are you located in Egypt?

toxic python
#

@feral dock I think Egypt blocks openvpn so he wouldn’t be able to connect to htb either if that were the case

#

Could be wrong be wrong that’s just my understanding

feral dock
#

Nope

#

The HTB vpn works in Egypt.

toxic python
#

Oh gotcha. Didn’t know that

I am having problems with my badge display

#

I completed 16 rooms but looks like its not updating

obsidian shell
#

That badge is a static image. It doesn't update dynamically.
On the TryHackMe webpage, click your profile picture. Choose Profile
Click the Public Profile button in the top-right.

#

Then click this button.

#

Try that and see if that updates your badge image.

exotic walrus
#

Still the same

deep trellis
#

It looks fine for me?

obsidian shell
#

Same.

#

Could be browser cache issue.

#

Nevermind that, actually, you're just downloading an asset from S3.

#

I see the same thing Skidy posted.

lilac ocean
obsidian shell
#

What was the point of that post, Naughty?

#

@exotic walrus When your browser downloads the file, are you sure it's not creating duplicates like anon7-1.png or anon7-2.png?
Can you right click and save the file to a different path?
Skidy and I both tried downloading your image from the link and it looks fine to us.

exotic walrus
#

Does the link automatically updates when i post it here or it has to be saved ???

#

maybe i am understanding this wrong

celest sapphire

posting the link on discord won't display the latest badge because of the image cache discord has

β€’ Step 1

Type ps aux | grep openvpn into your terminal and press enter

β€’ Step 2

If there's more than one line (and the second doesn't have "grep" in it), do the following steps

β€’ Step 3

Type killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter

β€’ Step 4

Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>

No

#

Route add failed is an issue on your end

Help

#

I done everything to use openvpn

#

It says connected

#

I tried to do the welcome thing where it says to go to its IP

#

and it doesnt work

eager fulcrum
#

It doesn't work?

#

What do you mean?

#

What are you expecting to happen?

naive dust
#

Like

#

1 sec

#

doesn't work

eager fulcrum
#

You need to press deploy

#

What do you mean "doesn't work"?

#

What are you doing and what are you expecting?

naive dust
#

uh

#

connected to OpenVPN

#

and then

#

i try to go to the IP website thing

#

and it says i can't connect to it

eager fulcrum
#

You haven't deployed the machine

naive dust
#

what do you mean

eager fulcrum
#

@simple osprey You're running multiple VPN connections, that doesn't work

naive dust
#

what do you mean i haven't deployed the machine

simple osprey
#

i killed all processes tho

eager fulcrum
#

@naive dust There's a button that says deploy. Unless you deploy the machine, there's nothing for you to connect to

#

@simple osprey Clearly you didn't

naive dust
#

it tells me to connect to that

#

IP

eager fulcrum
#

@naive dust No

naive dust
#

and it doesn't work

eager fulcrum
#

It does not

naive dust
#

it does

eager fulcrum
#

No

naive dust
#

"machine_IP"

eager fulcrum
#

It tells you to connect to the IP address of the machine you deployed in the room

#

MACHINE_IP gets filled in when you click deploy

#

Also, you leaked your public IP address

#

Don't do that

#

@vapid dawn people keep trying to connect to their own machine, rather than the machine they deployed. Can you make this extra clear in the VPN room?

naive dust
#

oh my god

#

im so dumb

#

my friend just pointed out there is a deploy button

eager fulcrum
#

I said it too

#

@naive dust There's a button that says deploy. Unless you deploy the machine, there's nothing for you to connect to
@eager fulcrum

simple osprey
#

ok now i made sure im running one instance of openvpn

#

i dont get an error

#

only a warning

#

but im still not connecter

#

connected*

#

on the access page

eager fulcrum
#

Ignore the access page

#

The access page isn't reliable

simple osprey
#

fair

mystic sinew
#

Any common reasons why THM says I'm not connected while OpenVPN says I have a connection? I even re-downloaded my file. It always worked up until now.

simple osprey
#

well i cant connect to my deployed machine

eager fulcrum
#

Because the access page isn't trustworthy

#

@simple osprey What VM? What are you trying to do?

simple osprey
#

first advent of cyber

#

im even on port 3000

#

nvm

#

thanks for your hell

arctic ledge
#

do we have to let our subscription expire before we can renew?

simple osprey
#

i was mainly using the access page to see if i was connected i never actually tried the vm

eager fulcrum
#

@simple osprey The VMs take time to deploy.

simple osprey
#

no i deployed it like an hour ago

eager fulcrum
#

@arctic ledge At the moment, yes. If you get in touch with Skidy, he might be able to help you here

eager fulcrum
#

Don't DM, just tag in public chat here

arctic ledge
#

ok

#

@deep trellis hey when you get a chance i wanna renew before it expires - you can dm me

deep trellis
#

About what sorry?

#

Let me read the above chat, 1 sec

#

Yeah, if you pay monthly it will automatically take it the monthly amount

#

If you paid via PayPal, when it expires, you can just renew if you want:)

arctic ledge
#

ok cool cool - thanks!

No worries - Happy hacking

I get the following error: authenticate/decrypt packet error: packet HMAC authentication failed

#

the stuff I found on Google was over my head unfortunately

eager fulcrum
#

That's fine

#

it just happens

#

Not really an error that affects anything

mystic sinew
#

thing is I can't connect to my deployed machine

eager fulcrum
#

??

#

What are you trying to do, what room, what are you expecting to happen?

mystic sinew
#

sure. sorry. in RP: Metasploit I'm trying to ping the machine to see if it's up before I configure the exploit

eager fulcrum
#

It's a windows machine, not 100% sure that VM responds to pings

#

!vpn try the VM here to see if you're connected

sharp bisonBOT
mystic sinew
#

nmap is also giving me 'host down'

#

ok

#

!vpn

sharp bisonBOT
eager fulcrum
#

nmap will tell you the host is down if it doesn't respond to a ping

mystic sinew
#

!vpn

sharp bisonBOT
mystic sinew
#

I see

eager fulcrum
#

No need to spam the command

#

The room link is now in here like 3 times in the last min

rose relic
#

yes...

mystic sinew
#

yeah sorry, I forgot that I was using discord on my host machine but the vpn runs in a VM

#

had to try again from host

...enable shared clipboard

#

Use firefox in kali

shared clipboard appears to be broken

at least in the latest version of kali

eager fulcrum

It works fine for me on 2020.2

mystic sinew
#

turns out I'm an idiot. but the exploit is also failing. I'll try again later. I appreciate you taking the time helping all the wannabe hackers

#

Hi

#

How do you perform a vulnerability scan with Nmap? I'm doing a room and trying to find out but have been stuck on it for an hour.

eager fulcrum
#

And that comes under rule 13

#

Ignore it

#

@deep trellis seriously, it just gets worse and worse

#

I've been complaining at Skidy over and over about this

deep trellis
#

THM Access page says I'm not connected when I am.
@naive dust Which server is this?

#

@deep trellis seriously, it just gets worse and worse
@eager fulcrum I think we still need it, but I need to figure out why the API to check it they're connected is breaking

eager fulcrum
#

It needs a disclaimer

#

Or something because people fight over it

deep trellis
#

Or something because people fight over it
@eager fulcrum (I will add a disclaimer)

#

I've had issues on this one before.
@naive dust Try now:)

eager fulcrum
#

That's what I've been asking for since the beginning of the issues

deep trellis
#

Ah there we go

#

Fixed

#

Try again

#

Nw.

#

Adding a disclaimer now until I get to the bottom of that issue.

I wouldn't come here but I don't know what to do to be honest.

I'm in the room "Tony the Tiger/CerealCTF-LinuxV2" and I am attempting to scan port 8080 but the port is closed. I have restarted the box and my vpn connection, no go. Also no known issues. Not sure if I'm doing it wrong or something

#

The commands I have used are:

"nmap -sC -sV -oN nmap/initial $IP"

"nmap -sV $IP"

"nmap -p 8080 $IP"

"nmap -sC -sV -p 8080 -oN nmap/test $IP"

pallid bison
#

Is there a way of stopping my files being wiped off my kali machine or is it a site wide policy for security/space reasons?

barren birch
#

@pallid bison Nah, I'm afraid it's a fresh instance each time. We're looking into potentially carrying configuration files across, but not the files you actually create on the machine.

pallid bison
#

Makes sense, understood!

barren birch
#

My suggestion would be to just put them all into one directory (with a subdirectory structure if needed), zip it up, and exfiltrate before it dies

pallid bison

Ahhh that's a really good idea actually, thanks Oracle
