@rapid rover What machine? How are you trying to connect?

rapid rover Aug 24, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

Trying to deploy a machine from a hacktivities room

eager fulcrum Aug 24, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

The VPN doesn't connect you to that machine, it connects you to the TryHackMe network which contains your machine.

#

Hacktivities is a collection of all public rooms

#

Which room?

#

kali stopped making its users a sudoer
@gloomy lichen No, it stopped using root as default

rapid rover Aug 24, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

Authenticate/Decrypt packet error: packet HMAC authentication failed

eager fulcrum Aug 24, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

That's a warning rather than an error

#

If you're seeing that, you're probably connected to the VPN

#

To check, you can try opening http://10.10.10.10/ in your browser

@rapid rover again, if you're seeing that warning then you are connected

eager fulcrum Aug 24, 2020, 7:44 PM

Hello there,
I can't log into my machines either through SSH or OpenVPn.
For OpenVpn, I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, redownloaded my config file and even changed server. I can connect to the network and access the machine but I can not submit my solution to the exercises unless I disconnect myself from the VPN, submit the response, turn the VPN back on and continue.
For Browser, started my machine and clicked on extend as I did yesterday and it still not working.
This is not really ideal
Please advise.
Thank you

Are you connecting from Kali?

naive dust Aug 24, 2020, 9:33 PM

@naive dust How did you connect? Using the command line program or Kali's VPN manager?

naive dust Aug 24, 2020, 9:35 PM

#

I used the Command Line

#

I have been using it since Friday without any troubles

bronze vale Aug 24, 2020, 9:35 PM

Does the authentication failure look similar to “HMAC Packet authentication failure”

bronze vale Aug 24, 2020, 9:37 PM

What’s exactly the issue with OpenVPN?

naive dust Aug 24, 2020, 9:37 PM

#

@bronze vale . With Open VPN, I have access to THM network but can access anything else

bronze vale Aug 24, 2020, 9:38 PM

#

That is strange it shouldn’t be affecting your connection at all.

naive dust Aug 24, 2020, 9:38 PM

#

When I click on connect, I can access the machine I launched. But if I can't submit the answer until I disconnect

#

It was working jsut fine yesterday

#

I connect to the network, solve the exercise, disconnect from the network, submit the answer, wait for it to be graded, reconnect and continue

bronze vale Aug 24, 2020, 9:39 PM

#

And this is on the In-Browser machine, correct?

naive dust Aug 24, 2020, 9:41 PM

Have you logged out or in since the last time you used the machine?

Walkthrough rooms give 8 points per question with an answer.

All questions without answers don’t give points

that what I thought... I completed the room, but no points?

eager fulcrum Aug 24, 2020, 11:46 PM

@heavy nymph The creator may have set it to not give points

For large rooms, that's an option. I think muir set that room not to give points

hi everyone,
about wordpress wpscan and plugins.
I was scanning a box for plugins and with aggressive mode - which found the required info to move forward, but took 3 and a half hours.
Now running the same test with mixed mode and it's estimated almost 2 hours (still 15%) but i am not sure if the vulnerable plugin will be found.
Passive mode did not pick it up at all (even though it was pretty fast).

I also noticed the box was extremely slow when doing linPeas.
my network is ok and I never experienced such long scan times.

is this because the target VM is not strong enough? or am I doing something wrong?

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 11:32 AM

#

What machine are you using

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:32 AM

#

Jack

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 11:32 AM

#

No, what you using to use the tools

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:33 AM

#

Kali

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 11:33 AM

#

Your own Kali VM?

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:33 AM

#

5.7.0

#

the offsec one

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 11:33 AM

#

No

#

Are you using

#

Your own VM

#

Or THM’s VM

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:34 AM

#

my VM

#

my VM on my laptop connecting via VPN to the THM VM with Jack on it

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 11:35 AM

#

I mean there’s a chance it could be your own VM, your connection or something else. Do write ups take just as long?

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:38 AM

#

what do you mean write up?

#

i noticed the stdout output was also slow, like linpeas

#

pspy was also slightly slower

#

interacting with the WP management website is also slow

#

so my guess the VM is slowing everything down

Hello :D
For this room : https://tryhackme.com/room/crackthehash for the 1st task, question 4 (||bcrypt||)
I was wondering if I should use a website or an app like hashcat ?

TryHackMe

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 11:46 AM

#

Hashcat or John is recommended for cracking hashes

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:48 AM

#

@bronze vale do you think I should contact THM directly on this performance issue?

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 11:48 AM

#

okay, I was wondering because in the second part it says "All of the answers will be in the classic rock you password list." but it's not said for the first part

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 11:48 AM

#

@bronze vale do you think I should contact THM directly on this performance issue?
@sudden adder I don’t think it’s their issue but if you want to enquire about it go ahead I guess?

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 11:49 AM

#

And hashcat is very slow on my computer :/ like 70H/s (while 9 000H/s with benchmark mode)

sudden adder Aug 25, 2020, 11:49 AM

#

so what do you think is the issue?

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 11:49 AM

#

@sly yoke Are you cracking on CPU or GPU?

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 11:51 AM

#

Gpu

#

certainly wrong drivers though

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 11:51 AM

#

What GPU are you using if I may ask?

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 11:51 AM

#

but this astonish me because in benchmark I still have 9kH/s

#

1060 3GB

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 11:52 AM

#

It should be faster than 70

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 11:53 AM

#

yes definitely

#

What I don't understand is why 70 in real mode and 9.000 in benchmark :/

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 11:55 AM

#

What command are you using out of interest

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 11:56 AM

#

I tried multiple ones like :
hashcat -m 3200 <hash> >wordlist>
hashcat -m 3200 <hash> >wordlist> -O
hashcat -m 3200 <hash> >wordlist> -w 3
hashcat -m 3200 <hash> >wordlist> -w 3 -O

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 12:00 PM

#

It might help if you put the hash in a .txt file

#

it should be just hashcat -m 3200 hash.txt rockyou.txt

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 12:02 PM

#

I'll try

#

it doesn't seem better :/

crystal osprey Aug 25, 2020, 12:03 PM

#

does it give an error?

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 12:04 PM

#

#

nope my own machine

vernal ruin Aug 25, 2020, 12:06 PM

vernal ruin Aug 25, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

How are you running Linux

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

On my computer

#

Like on my real disk

#

no VM

#

A possibility is that benchmark uses bcrypt with a cost of 5 (32 iterations) while the bcrypt the room gives, uses a cost of 12 which is 4096 iterations

vernal ruin Aug 25, 2020, 12:11 PM

#

That will affect the speed ig

#

70 H/S is still slow tho

sly yoke Aug 25, 2020, 12:12 PM

#

maybe my drivers

#

and / or the dual screen + VM in background 🤷

#

But Is that strange that an easy room ask for a bcrypt with a cost of 12 ? x)

#

it says 900 H/s with 8 GTX Titan X

A while

toxic python Aug 25, 2020, 2:56 PM

depends on the box

timid tiger Aug 25, 2020, 2:56 PM

#

normal for it to be like 20+ minutes or does it scale for the environment

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 2:57 PM

#

I believe it will run faster if you do them separately

timid tiger Aug 25, 2020, 2:57 PM

#

is that why I see the -T4 used in conjuction a lot with it (ie they do T4 first while the -A is running?)

bronze vale Aug 25, 2020, 2:58 PM

-T4 changes the intensity. More noise but quicker

Hi,

I am a Subscriber. When I join rooms, I do not see any questions to answer. It does not display. I am able to deploy VMs but it still shows that I have not joined any rooms. However, I do have many rooms in 'My Rooms'.

Any help.

Thanks

#

This is what it looks like.

If you want to stick with that VPN server then click regenerate and wait about 30s and see if that helps?

There are 3 groups of people that can reset your progress in a room

The room creator, and admin, or MuirlandOracle.

Yes, or you could ask one of those three groups

And keep your account.

Can you check that the package gdm is installed?

#

@vestal beacon what was u saying about did i remove quiet splash ?

vestal beacon Aug 26, 2020, 9:10 AM

#

Okay this is going to sound a weird suggestion but do the following:

Add

blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0

to

/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf

then run sudo update-initramfs -u && reboot

leaden hare Aug 26, 2020, 9:11 AM

#

I don't have nouveau.conf

vestal beacon Aug 26, 2020, 9:11 AM

#

Create it

leaden hare Aug 26, 2020, 9:12 AM

#

I have libnfc.conf

vestal beacon Aug 26, 2020, 9:12 AM

#

Don't do anything with that file

#

Create /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf

#

And add the above

leaden hare Aug 26, 2020, 9:13 AM

#

Ok

vestal beacon Aug 26, 2020, 9:13 AM

#

blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0

#

If you do this and reboot and are met with the same IPV6 error, drop into shell and temporarily disable it with nmcli radio wifi off just to get through the boot sequence

leaden hare Aug 26, 2020, 9:15 AM

#

Ok

#

Ok it didn't worked

#

I got that ipv6 error

Now ?

#

bronze vale Aug 26, 2020, 11:39 AM

No you usually set a listener with netcat

You’re running a Webserver with python

#

So you say that if i just build the proiect and run nc it will work?

bronze vale Aug 26, 2020, 11:42 AM

Well you need multiple things running at the same time, Python for it to download the file and netcat to catch the listener

naive dust Aug 26, 2020, 11:48 AM

#

Yes

bronze vale Aug 26, 2020, 11:49 AM

#

The error is probably because it’s not getting the file you need for the reverse shell

#

But on top of that it’s not even connecting to your machine as it should be at least trying to grab something but it can’t

#

So there’s something that’s stopping it from executing but I’m not sure what exactly

If you terminate and redeploy the room it should reset it back to the original state and thus no files should be downloaded.

Hey why websites on every room are loading and nthg happens i can check the source but the page doesn't load

summer gate Aug 26, 2020, 4:40 PM

#

hi - are password cracking tools (john, hashcat etc) deliberately not available in the virtual access machines?

#

keep seeing this:

#

Command 'john' is available in '/usr/sbin/john'
The command could not be located because '/usr/sbin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
This is most likely caused by the lack of administrative privileges associated with your user account.
john: command not found

eager fulcrum Aug 26, 2020, 4:41 PM

#

Kali 2020 requires sudo for john

#

Because of that PATH

Also tried to run the windows cracker in MSF but it said:

#

Hey guys. I have this issue where, on my local Kali VM, I always get the error message "Exploit completed, but no session was created". My bandaid solution for now is to just deploy a TryHackMe Kali VM, ssh into it and follow the exact same steps. The exploit always works this way. This has happened on 3 boxes now and its driving me mad. Has anyone else encountered this issue before? Does anyone have any idea as to what could be preventing reverse shells from connecting? I've already created another fresh Kali VM to no avail. I've also run the VPN check scripts and everything seems fine.

Have you had any reverse shells of any kind working on your VM?

Check firewalls like ufw or IP tables?
@eager fulcrum Inside Kali or on Windows

eager fulcrum Aug 26, 2020, 5:30 PM

Kali. Because it goes over the VPN so Windows can't see the traffic at all.

tribal tartan Aug 26, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

Have you had any reverse shells of any kind working on your VM?
@eager fulcrum Nope, tried to manually use an exploit and have netcat listen for reverse shell. Didn't work

what should I check for in regards to ufw?

like, if im listening on port X, I should check that ufw is allowing traffic on it?

You can use Player and run multiple VMs, but there are people here who use vbox happily

Running a VM is great for students (and professionals) and I highly recommend it

The only downside is you can't use Hashcat as efficiently in a VM so you need to run a Windows install of it

But at least there's John

If VBox continues I’d recommend trying the free version of VMware for a few days to see if that loses connection, if not we know 100% it’s VBox.
