[haughty glacier]

its odd the script can't find your openvpn file

[eager fulcrum]

The VPN runs in the guest, so it's independent of the host

Oh, and @barren birch your script aint workin

[barren birch]

What's wrong with it?

[haughty glacier]

you could try the full path to your script when requested /home/user/Downloads/filename.ovpn

[frosty sand]

[barren birch]

There's a fairly good chance that ZSH won't accept the trick I used to make the tilde work as a substitution for $HOME

That was a bash thing

[frosty sand]

specifying the full path worked

but didn't help lol

[barren birch]

So, yes, the full path will work

Can you access 10.10.10.10 @frosty sand?

[frosty sand]

yup pinged and got a reply

[barren birch]

Okay, so you're connected just fine

Can you ping the target?

[haughty glacier]

they did nmap scan the target before

and it worked

just ssh returns 'connection refused'

[frosty sand]

└─$ ping -c 1 10.10.146.153

[frosty sand]

is that the right way to ping that?

linux fundamentals part 3

i can ssh into it using the browser based machine

[barren birch]

Well that let me in just fine. What the heck is going on there

[frosty sand]

although i could use python3 http.server on it

*couldn't

[barren birch]

You can, just on different ports

[eager fulcrum]

Yeah, super weirded out because nmap could grab the banner for it but ssh says connectionrefused

[barren birch]

Yeah, that is nuts

[haughty glacier]

you are supposed to run the HTTP server on the target machine, not the attackbox, so you can actually do it on the default port

but a lot of users ran it on the attackbox instead for some reason

[frosty sand]

i was ssh into it when i tried to run that. is that not correct?

[eager fulcrum]

Maybe this should be clarified in the room cc @zealous yoke

[frosty sand]

i can try to access a different box to see if that will do anything different

linux fund part 2 will let me ssh into that machine just fine

is this just a room issue?

[haughty glacier]

no, because Muiri could SSH into your target

that is very strange

[frosty sand]

does thm always bring up that message about how to access a machine once you spin one up?

[haughty glacier]

yeah it has been for me lately

[frosty sand]

ah ok. i was wondering if maybe it was doing that for me because it wasn't seeing me as connected or something

ok so i terminated the first machine and started another one. now it let me ssh into it for linux fund part 3

[eager fulcrum]

Ok, right, good

[frosty sand]

ok so i guess stuff is working for me now. I don't know what the deal was. Thanks to everyone who helped me out!

[haughty glacier]

might have been a mix of how you were running the vpn previously and who knows what

[frosty sand]

well now i know how to start it properly in the terminal. Clearly the GUI thing doesn't work right.

[eager fulcrum]

Yeah the GUI thing is very weird

[rancid temple]

hey team, im doing the "chill hack" room. there's a script that is vulnerable to command injection. in writeups i'm reading, they just type /bin/sh and they have a shell as a escalated user. When i try to do that, my screen sort of freezes. the cursor keeps blinking but It never does anything. Any thoughts?

?

[flat halo]

hey guys, how can I clean metasploit history ? when I enter hosts, or services as well as vulns, it outputs me the info about the previous machines

[placid mango]

If you are new to this then its best to use kali in vm.

[magic ledge]

Hey guys, how can I find my ip address on a kali linux VM while using ovpn? when I used the ifconfig command it came out with both eth0 and lo

I basically wanted to do the php reverse shell thing but I'm not sure if I should use the eth0 inet thing or the other one

[dense bramble]

Type this in the terminal
ip a s tun0

[magic ledge]

it says "Device "tun0" does not exist."

[dense bramble]

Then you're likely not connected with openvpn

What does this show
ps aux | grep openvpn

[magic ledge]

" root 1113 0.0 0.0 6180 716 pts/0 S+ 12:54 0:00 grep --color=auto openvpn "

[dense bramble]

hmm I believe the output was different if you're connected, try to start it again

sudo openvpn [username].ovpn

In the folder where your file is

[magic ledge]

I should also probably mention that I am rn using ovpn on windows while kali is running in virual box maybe thats not how I'm supposed to be doing it

[dense bramble]

Yeah, that's not it

You should be running the ovpn in your Kali VM

Good that you mentioned it

[magic ledge]

tysm for help!

[dense bramble]

sure, no problem

all good now?

[magic ledge]

yup

[dense bramble]

great

[naive dust]

Hello, Is it a bad idea (Security-wise) to use a Windows machine with THM VPN? I am not sure if other people in the network won't do recon/ exploit bruteforce on my machine.

[twin wraith]

ok can u resolve the issue im facing

[eager fulcrum]

This channel is for asking technical questions directly related to tryhackme, like site or VPN issues

[eager fulcrum]

No because you asked it over a several channels and I have to go do something

It was not a reply to you.

[naive dust]

Oh, sorry.

[twin wraith]

where should i ask for bugs or issues that i found in room

[eager fulcrum]

It sounds very much like user error so not a bug

[twin wraith]

i dont think so bcoz im able to connect to another http server on port 80

[eager fulcrum]

Take a look through the channel names and channel topics and you will see where to report bugs with rooms

But I recommend asking in #room-help and providing full details about the problem first because it's almost never an issue with the room.

[twin wraith]

thanks for the help

[naive dust]

.

[eager fulcrum]

You'll want a Kali VM just purely because of the tools available. They're hard to install on Windows.
Then you run the VPN directly in Kali rather than on the host.

[naive dust]

Yeah about that, the PC I am talking about is a low end laptop which I will be using when I am away from my workstation so VM option is out. I cant install Linux either because of driver compatibility issues.

[eager fulcrum]

You are going to struggle attacking using Windows, would really recommend against it unless you're a really experienced hacker

[dense bramble]

How about a live USB?

[naive dust]

Thanks you but I am not talking about tools, I am more concerned about my machines safety on the network.

Connecting a Windows machine to a network full of pentesters that are better than me dosen't sound like a good idea to me.

[eager fulcrum]

Nothing is safe

With situations like this, it's a risk that YOU need to evaluate and weigh up yourself.

[eager fulcrum]

If you don't like that idea, don't do it.

[naive dust]

@eager fulcrum Okay, thank you for your help.

The Metasploit room is stuck on an infinite loading loop for me, other rooms load fine

[sleek kayak]

Hi all, Ive been having random issues that are quite frustrating.

97% of the time I can use my own Kali VM just fine and everything works, but sometimes there might be a tiny thing that wont work, but yet works just fine on the attackbox with all else being the same.

For example, i cannot load the webpage for port 8080 on the steel mountain room from my Kali VM, but can load it INSTANTLY on the attack box

[eager fulcrum]

Can you navigate to http://10.10.10.10 from Kali?

[sleek kayak]

I get an error

Sorry command not found has crashed

[eager fulcrum]

[sleek kayak]

Should i restart after running that?

Don't think so

I'd try a different VPN server at thins point

[sleek kayak]

And how would I do that?

So strange its only for port 8080

And other rooms have given me similar issues like one thing wont work. But everything works just fine on the attackbox

I'm working on setting up VMware on my computer, I don't fully understand what Windows Hypervisor Platform is?

[sleek kayak]

A hypervisor allows you to run the VM

On windows you use Windows Hypervisor Platform

[wind mason]

Ah, I see

thanks

[sleek kayak]

Your main machine is called your “host”, and your VMs are called “guest” machines, which run in the hypervisor.

ohhh now I can post screenshots of my problems! LEVEL UP!

One more thing Id like to ask, if I am connecting to the VPN is there any way to still get access to the internet? When i connect using my own Kali VM i loose internet on that VM

It works on the attackbox

[eager fulcrum]

Don't use Kali's VPN manager. It's atrociously bad. Connect from the command line.

@sleek kayak

[sleek kayak]

i must be doing something crazily wrong because it doesn't work unless I connect from that VPN manager. I will have to reconfigure

i have to use that

[eager fulcrum]

Screenshot what happens when you connect from the command line with the openvpn command then

[sleek kayak]

and then connect using "sudo openvpn filename.ovpn"

let's just forget i said anything, because now it is seeming to work just fine

maybe my issues were all linked to the VPN manager

i now have both internet and connectivity, but now I solved this issue, i need to go back to room-help

mouse cursor problem ,and cant ctrl out

[haughty glacier]

well I can't really see the cursor issue but ctrl-x should work in nano

[woeful hedge]

The cursor problem is probably your operating system

[haughty glacier]

probably not going to show if it doesn't in a screesnhot

[gaunt mica]

ctrl x didnt work and let me try another screen shot

[haughty glacier]

is there a reason you aren't just using the VPN if you are already in Parrot?

[woeful hedge]

And to control out from the attack box you need to use the little box

[gaunt mica]

it worked on window operating system and you are right moose

why not linux?

[woeful hedge]

Why won't it copy out from the Linux side?

Do the reverse of what you did to paste into the box

[gaunt mica]

i see ,it doesnt show in my screenshot, and what are you saying moose?

elaborate me

[haughty glacier]

is your parrot a virtual machine or your host OS?

[gaunt mica]

parrot is my host

it doesnt work well with other labs from other sites too i tested it

[haughty glacier]

might need to talk to parrot support about that, I don't really know

but why don't you just use the VPN for THM to connect and do labs that way?

[woeful hedge]

The attack box should run normally on any operating system

[gaunt mica]

i thought so too but its parrot obiviously and it was fine on ubuntu

[woeful hedge]

Any mouse weirdness is going to be your operating system generally

[gaunt mica]

okay ill direct myself to parrot support

[haughty glacier]

it is running fine but it sounds like his keyboard inputs aren't getting passed into it correctly

[gaunt mica]

yes thats correct

[woeful hedge]

Hi. I have some issues with the clipboard. When I highlight a text in Firefox (within THM AttackBox), sometimes it will overwrite the info in the clipboard.

[oak verge]

Hello I am facing problem with vpn file recently. I can't connect to the THM network, it's always stuck on restart pause

[meager shell]

I'm having an issue with the Burp Suite room in the absolute beginner track. Whether I use Kali or the Attack box, once I've enabled the proxy and (on Kali, it's already set up on the AB) added the certificate to firefox, I can no longer access any website through the browser, including the web application on the target. It just sits and loads infinitely. What am I likely doing wrong?

[haughty glacier]

you need to check your intercept tab in burp probably?

and click 'forward'

if you want the page to load

[meager shell]

For what it's worth, the instant i turn intercept off in burp I can access websites again

[haughty glacier]

burp is set to 'intercept' your web requests so it holds them till you process it

[meager shell]

The forward option is greyed out

Interesting, ok I'll keep reading and playing, thanks again @haughty glacier

[scenic torrent]

Gave +1 Rep to @haughty glacier

[haughty glacier]

yeah it might be some proxy settings are wrong then

on your kali vm (i dunno about attack box) I suggest installing foxy proxy

and setting that up for burp (will make switching proxy on and off a lot easier)

and then post a screenshot in #room-help with ur burp, foxy proxy settings and webpage and smeone can probably help a bit

it does sound like it's intercepting requests or your proxy is misconfigured though at a guess

[meager shell]

Ah I found the issue, it was me misunderstanding how the proxy and the tool work together, thanks for the help

[haughty glacier]

np, glad you sorted it

If you haven't moved it, it will be in your downloads folder

guys can anyone tell me how to fix this ?
I'm using WSL with Kali and since I used to develop with Ubuntu I'm used to use vscode as my text editor
I installed earlier kali-linux-large to have the whole package via sudo apt install -y kali-linux-largebut now my command code . to open the folder with vscode doesn't work anymore, i get this message:

I think it doesn't let me use code and instead correct my command for "code-oss"

how can I correct this and use the "code" command ?

[patent lark]

Check in a PowerShell session if the code command works

[flat halo]

if you mean start kali from the powershell and run the code commands, it doesn't work, but just inside powershell yes it works

also, I can still connect to my kali linux vm with code

so it's really just this correction that I get from the kali developers' message

I ran this command "code-oss" by curiosity and I get the exact same output

[livid vapor]

I am not sure, but it might be the same person checking both emails

THM is a fairly small team

[safe ledge]

Sure No problem. I will wait for the response!

[livid vapor]

🙂

Hopefully you can get that resolved soon. I think there MIGHT be an issue with network vpns right now, I've seen people asking about not seeing the wreath vpn download

so maybe there's a bug with that at the moment. Not sure.

[safe ledge]

ohkay. makes sense. Then I could be part of ongoing issue because I can also not see anything for WREATH. I was bit worried as I thought may be payment did not sync well in the backend. 👍

[livid vapor]

While that's certainly possible, my guess would be that it's a bug related to network vpn displays, but again, that's just a guess.

Either way, emailing support will be able to provide more info/confirmation. Most people here are just volunteers, not actual staff, so we (I) can't see your account details, etc.

[abstract harness]

what am i supposed to do after this, i tried doing wget then the link but nothing happens

[haughty glacier]

can you screenshot your wget

also we can take this to #848213138565365760 as it seems like you are doing linux fundamentals3?

[livid vapor]

Sounds like this might be a room question more than a vpn/tech support question

[woeful hedge]

Agreed

[livid vapor]

Neon beat me to it

[woeful hedge]

All 3 of us just lurking for the question lol

[naive dust]

Would it be possible please to completely reset my profile progress-wise? Un-enroll me from all the paths and rooms, reset all progress (for practice/learning purpose)

[livid vapor]

I think for that one you might have to email [e-mail]. I don't believe there's a way for you to do that, but they might be able to

[naive dust]

will email em, thanks

[livid vapor]

you're welcome

[limber herald]

Hello, please i have problem accessing the internet each time i connect to the labs on thm CompTIA pentest path

Do not use Kali's VPN manager

Use the command line openvpn application

Again, has anyone heard about updates regarding the Windows machines as I mentioned??

[gentle mist]

Ok. Maybe after sometime?

[eager fulcrum]

Is there a question? Just ignore the updates

The machines don't have internet access

[thorny dock]

The thing is, I couldn't do anything besides clicking "OK". I then tried to get a connection to metasploit. But there was nothing. And I used the correct address (thm vpn) so I thought the connection was blocked. In taskmanager it showed the CPU up to 99%.. Something was going on and I thought that was maybe the reason. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'll check again a bit later..

Hello all, Which room would I go to to inquire about auto-renewal for my subscription?

[eager fulcrum]

here

[spring wing]

Ok I give up. what do I need to do?

[eager fulcrum]

??

[spring wing]

I just want to be able to renew my subscription to tryhackme.com Is that here in settings or on the website? I'm not sure what to do.

[eager fulcrum]

It's on the website. If you paid with Stripe then it will auto renew unless you bought a voucher

If you paid with paypal or bought a voucher, it will not autorenew

[spring wing]

I paid with paypal. I don't remember paying with Stripe

[eager fulcrum]

Ok, then it will not auto renew

Wait for it to expire, then pay with a card rather than paypal if you would like it to auto renew

[spring wing]

when did thm go to stripe?

[eager fulcrum]

From the start.

Like all along.

Stripe is how they handle credit/debit cards

[spring wing]

will i loose everything ive earned

[eager fulcrum]

No

[spring wing]

ok so let it expire and renew with a CC ?

[eager fulcrum]

Yes

Or debit card

[spring wing]

OK thank you very much.

Hi, I've got some strange problems regularly i.e.: timeouts, box page doesn't load properly, can't upload file to box that guy from write up uploaded etc. My question is: Can my hosts VPN interfere my VMWares connections? Or should it be transparent?

Yes it can interfere

I recommend not nesting VPNs

My vpn connect, but, when i am go to server, its said "unable to connect", what should i do?

do I need premium for that?

[patent lark]

Check if you can visit http://10.10.10.10, if not try to change the server, you only need to be subscribed to connect to the VIP servers.

remember to regenerate and re-download the configuration file to be sure.

Originally posted this in room-hints, but I suppose it is better posted here. I'm working on the OWASP Top 10 room, Task 20, Question 5 On the same page, create an alert popup box appear on the page with your document cookies. I've tried a number of scripts that all produce the same cookie data. <script>alert(“document.cookie”)</script>
<script>onclick(alert("document.cookie"));</script>
var x = document.cookie; window.alert(x);
I get a popup with connect.sid=s%3Alc0.... Clicking ok gives another popup with document.cookie. Clicking ok then just closes the dialog without showing another popup with the flag or updating the page to show a flag like it did for the previous stored XSS question. I can post screenshots if needed. Is this a program error, or am I missing something?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

[thick carbon]

Hi there, that could indicate an issue with your connection or with the proxy that Burp uses

[sullen pond]

Iam not able to connect to the host for any machines,even though iam connected to HTB network with openvpn..getting error message as "Host is down"

This is not HTB

So I would recommend using the TryHackMe VPN rather than the HackTheBox one

If you'd like help with the HackTheBox VPN, they have their own discord

@eager fulcrum I posted a question above. I've been working on this and hoping for some help for almost 2 hours. I don't want to have my profile flagged for spamming. Can you suggest where I should post my question so I can get some help, or confirm that there is an issue with that question?

[eager fulcrum]

In Linux Fundamentals?

[rough cave]

yes

[eager fulcrum]

You're not using the attackbox there, you're SSHing into the deployed machine.

@zealous yoke I keep seeing this confusion. People keep labelling any deployable with in-browser access as "the attackbox".

[rough cave]

but if i want to ssh into the deployable machine, how can i get the password ?

@eager fulcrum

[eager fulcrum]

You're given it?

[rough cave]

?

You either have in browser access, or you're given the credentials.

Read the tasks.

Hi I just made a kali linux VM to do the throwback network as been using attackbox for it for a few days but want to run it on my actual machine. I have connected to the VPN but for some reason I can't ping any of the machines on the throwback network. It is definitely running and I don't believe it is a VPN issue because I tested deploying a machine from a different challenge and that one worked. It is just the throwback network I cannot connect to.

[eager fulcrum]

In the tasks. @rough cave

i have just in-browser

[eager fulcrum]

No

On the left. The drop downs. Those are tasks.

The ones with Task in the title

[rough cave]

yes i know, but the only task that says you to connect is the task 3 (Interacting With Your First Linux Machine (In-Browser)

[eager fulcrum]

Ok. So you don't need the attackbox or anything.

You can just do it all in browser for the first Linux Fundamentals room.

I believe the next one expects you to SSH in, and provides the credentials to do so.

[rough cave]

oh, it's worked, at first, the "start machine" button was unclickable, and after refreshing it's worked

Hi, anybody know if THM doesn't isolate each VM ?

it doesnt happen in another platforms.

[velvet charm]

I also cannot use mysql in the attackbox VM

Is there any way to speed up the nmap scanning for some of the boxes? I assume response times are slow because there's a ton of people scanning the same machines, but it's taking me 2 hours+ for a scan to complete in most modules.

[eager fulcrum]

Machines are not shared with other users outside of networks

[sleek rover]

Ok, but then why would it be taking so long to scan?

[eager fulcrum]

IDK, some are just bad for it

I am on Task 5 in the Upload Vulnerabilities room and the url is not available to me. It is the http://demo.uplo..... It was working but it stopped. I restarted everything and it is still not working.

[eager fulcrum]

Demo is not meant to work.
This is stated in very big letters in the room.

hi - new paid member - having trouble typing in numbers to my virtual machine, letters work fine, any ideas?

possible to connect to box using https://remmina.org/?

[pine mist]

i cannot download the VPN file

it all started with the error by which the webpages dont load on boxes

so went to https://tryhackme.com/access to change servers

but whenever i try downloading the file

it redirects me to 404

help?

[patent lark]

Try to regenerate it and then try to download it again.

[pine mist]

i did

[patent lark]

Did you try to delete the browser cache?

[pine mist]

no

will do that

[placid mango]

`If you are receiving a 404 error after attempting to download the OpenVPN Configuration file please try these steps:

• Press regenerate, wait 2 minutes and then try downloading again

• Change VPN server and try downloading again

• Log out of your account and log back in.`

hi, paid user here. I've been experiencing very slow connections on the VPN, with frequent timeouts, even when trying from different machines/OS. any ideas on how to diagnose this? everything works fine from the attackbox but I miss having my own tools and persistence of working files (or is there a way to persist files across attackbox sessions?)

[agile plume]

Why I cant find this port when using my machine but can find using in browser?

Sorry for my terrible English

[eager fulcrum]

You are probably not connected to the THM VPN

[slender frost]

Good day . I'm hawing a little bit of trubble trying to connect. I'm doing the upload vulnerabilities section but so far it seems that I can't connect to any link from the exercises . I haw the machine on and I'm connected via vpn but can't connect to the pages to solve the problem .

[agile plume]

but the right top shows connected

[slender frost]

yes

if i try to acces the ip via the browser it dosen`t show anything or say service temporary unavailable

I also re-donwloade my vpn credential but to no success

[eager fulcrum]

Ok, but you can't connect to the port so you aint connected properly

[eager fulcrum]

Update the IP in your hosts file

[slender frost]

in the vpn file?

[eager fulcrum]

No. I said hosts file.

Not VPN file.

[slender frost]

how come I can`t uploade photos

i want to show you the problems

But make sure you updated your hosts file, it needs the right IP in there

[slender frost]

same thing

[eager fulcrum]

Hosts file.

[slender frost]

sorry for asking such noob question

if my logic is right i must update the ip with the one that I get after I connect trough vpn ?

[eager fulcrum]

No.

[slender frost]

the one that shows up next to my profile with green

[eager fulcrum]

The target machine's IP.

[slender frost]

oh ok

[eager fulcrum]

You would have put the IP in your hosts file with the snippet provided if you did the room previously

[slender frost]

dose export ip command work , is it enough ?

[eager fulcrum]

No.

The room guides you on how to do that process

[slender frost]

[hushed ledge]

Hi I can not connect the openvpn to server

But are going to loop authentication

[slender frost]

dose it show you any error ?

[hushed ledge]

Yeah

Loop

Authentications process

I choose another server gives the same

US or EU

Give me the same

But i try to connect on server thehackbox its run correctly without error

What is the problem?

Any help? Please

[slender frost]

sry I`m not that skilled , maybe wait a few minutes and Ninja might help you as well

in the meantime try working from the attackbox that has a kali machine preinstalled

you don`t need to set up vpn and it runes from browser

[hushed ledge]

Ok thks

I am on Task 7 (Bypassing Client-Side Filtering) of the "Upload Vulnerabilities" room
I am trying to connect to "java.uploadvulns.thm" and it says "Unable to connect - Firefox can't establish a connection to the server.
I ran the code in the "Getting Started" (Task 1) that states all the names of the domains for all the tasks.
I just did a "curl" and I see the source code in Terminal, so it looks like it is Firefox stopping me.
Thoughts?

[thorny dock]

are the entries in the hosts file correct?

[daring kayak]

I am good now, Firefox was sending me to Google and asking did I mean to go to java.uploadvulns.thm, so I hit yes and all good

How to access the Premium/Pay version for exactly 1 month. Do I pay once, or am I responsible to unsubscribe myself?

[honest pivot]

I'm having two issuesthe main one is no matter what card I use to buy a premium membership the website says it was declined, even when I know there is no issues with payment

secondly when I'm using the virtual machine I cannot use any commands on the command line, it says that i need to download them first into linux but when i try it won't let me

[haughty glacier]

if you pay, and then unsubscribe right away, you still have access for the whole month.

alternatively you could buy a voucher for 1 month instead

how can i show my full name on the badges earned...it only shows username which has no link to the full name

[bronze vale]

Hey!

You need to put your Full Name into the Full Name section on your profile (https://tryhackme.com/profile).

If you did not put your first name into your profile before generating your certificate, your username will appear.

Currently, this is not changeable, sorry.

[bitter dove]

I have my full name in the profile section however it is still generating badges with username

The first badge I got of advent-of-cyber-2 had my full name...thereafter all my badges is having username

https://tryhackme.com/tryharderlabs/badges/metasploitable

even my profile badge ID is not showing full name

https://tryhackme-badges.s3.amazonaws.com/tryharderlabs.png

[eager fulcrum]

I believe that was a certificate, not a badge.

They are different

[bitter dove]

Ok thx but it does not solve the problem for me ..I want full name on the badges instead of username...thx for understanding

[scenic torrent]

Gave +1 Rep to @eager fulcrum

[eager fulcrum]

Ok. You can't for badges.

Trying to bypass the VPN restrictions would be illegal, so please do not ask here.

Thx that clarifies the issue...but can it be taken up in future if someone wants full name on badges
