Honestly, I swear that OneNote is the best thing that Corporate work has taught me

Copy paste screenshots

Modify text like in MoS word

While obsidian can't do that I think?

yup, much more visual

Obsidian can embed images, but text formatting takes some CSS screwery, and you don't have as many options out of the box with regards to images and stuff. But they serve slightly different purposes

For 3 months access

In case you come later to check instruction:

one of the things i noticed about thm is that there's a lack of programming tutorials on it
(i know it's focused on hacking/cybersecurity mainly, but isn't programming an important part in that field as well?)
so that arises the question, how much programming do i need to learn from other sources and to what extent?

thick basin
rapid merlin
#

unless you're getting into maldev / rev engineering

thick basin
scenic bobcat
#

Yea unless you wanna write your own tools or so

queen flare
#

i'm a bit out of depth here
how does scripting differ from programming?
(i used to think it's the same thing until 2 seconds ago (i'm a beginner in computer science stuff))

thick basin
#

Scripting is just building a small program to automate tasks, whereas programming would be building out a whole application

rapid merlin
queen flare
#

got it!

thick basin
#

Start with the beginner stuff and see how you like it

#

i'm just doing B.Tech CSE (1st year) at the moment

hello can someone explain this better to me

unsigned char new_bytes[3] = { 0xDD, 0xD8, 0x90 };
for (int i = 0; i < sizeof(new_bytes); i++)
#

i understand that if i is smaller than the sizeof new bytes add a 1 to i loop kind of but i don't understand the new_byes[3] = { 0xDD, 0xD8, 0x90 };

#

can someone explain this better if they have the time please? Thanks in advance 😄

queen flare
#

are you familiar with arrays in C? @undone sorrel

undone sorrel
#

i read the array in learncpp but this one confuses me

queen flare
#

i think i've got some notes on array from my college
if you don't mind me dming it, i'll be happy to take pictures of it and send it to you

undone sorrel
#

thank you so much brother ❤️

queen flare
#

no worries
gimme a few mins

undone sorrel
#

take your time pal

queen flare
undone sorrel
#

so if for example
new bytes had 4 values in it like it would have to be
unsigned char new_bytes[4] = { 0xDD, 0xD8, 0x90, 0xDC };

And you need a booster still?

Nah, got a booster. Demanding instructions, so no idea how they want it setup

The booster needs to be at least 2 feet away from the indoor antenna, and the outdoor antenna needs to be 50 feet horizontal or 20 feet vertical from inside antenna

Is it normal for the terminal to be a bit laggy when typing commands once you've established an ssh connection?

You’re welcome. Also just a fyi some of the paths are subscriber only paths, so if you don’t have access just search up the topic of that path. There should be other rooms that are similar and free

I've been a bit of a bum, admittedly, just sitting on a subscription without doing anything with it, but I'm trying to get serious now that my "summer vacation" I gave myself is over.

Uncertain at this point. I don't feel like I've gotten a lot of exposure yet to make a determination, but I feel like I enjoy forensics...though that could simply be because it was the last class I took.

Can this Tryhackme help me to get the skills I want and for me to get a job with this skills am learning on Tryhackme. Thank you

Anybody got a idea of what I should even be searching for, something like to inventory it
Need to implement a QR code system which I will put on PC's then be able to scan them and get their relevent information such as id, specs and stuff

The Network services are a bit hardcore in some aspects

#

I hate myself for looking writeups, but the machines simply dont do what is expected

#

A netcat shell ran on a telnet connection gives some error

#

Hats off to you

#

Wow they added a new command thing

oak river
#

Grinding that knowledge

#

Okay but I need some advice

crude stump
#

Oh wait

#

Apps and cmmands

oak river
#

The easy paths usually until now have been very precise and beginner friendly

rapid merlin
#

./nimscan.nim

crude stump
#

Pretty unnecessary on discords part in my opinion

oak river
#

There are some easy rooms that throw in some things that I have not met until now and do not explain the a lot

#

Like netcat and msfvenom

#

In this case should I check for msfvenom rooms and netcat rooms

#

Or do my own online research

crude stump
rapid merlin
oak river
#

Has nothing like that

crude stump
#

Never know it could be

oak river
#

Thankfully

#

There is a reverse shell easy room

#

Guess I'll take it in a bit

#

But im done for today

lone gust
#

I am trying to do the network security room and I keep getting this error with the nmap command. Does anyone know why?

oak river
#

yes

unreal solar
#

MACHINE_IP

oak river
#

nmap and put the IP

rapid merlin
unreal solar
#

Start the machine

#

Get the IP address

#

scan

oak river
#

Click on start the machine in your browser

#

Wait for the IP to appear

#

Copy IP

#

Replace MACHINE_IP with the IP of the machine from your browser on the page

lone gust
#

oh snap.. thank you alot

#

i was getting frustrated

oak river
#

Were all here for you mate

#

No problem

#

When you see something similar in other commands

#

Except nmap

#

Know that it's a dummy word

rapid merlin
oak river
#

I'm also a beginner so I would appreciate some basic feedback

#

So during enumeration stage

#

We mostly use nmap right?

#

After we discover open ports, we try to connect:

#

Often I guess we would try an ftp, ssh or telnet connection?

sleek viper
#

Definitely low hanging fruit but NMAP can be super loud if you run the wrong scan.

wintry sluice
#

you can also use the service info that is returned to lookup exploits

sleek viper
#

You can use exploitdb's offline database and just keep it updated

oak river
#

Like IDS/IPS/Firewall?

#

Or a human resource that is sitting and observing the system?

#

Or what do you mean by that? I mean why would I care that I am loud if the machine does not have any security measures preconfigured?

scenic bobcat
# oak river Like IDS/IPS/Firewall?

Most likely if its a loud enough scan- best example is my isp AG_Stare they will detect it if you're doing a aggressive port scan and boot you off lol

#

I think thats under IPS if i learned that correctly

scenic bobcat
sleek viper
#

Could end up in a SIEM and flagged as high risk and then investigated

Question, I noticed MSF venom payloads for the reverse shell use the nc command, does that mean the target PC has to have netcat installed on it for it to work?

slender scaffold
#

netcat is typically on the system yeah

tropic stratus
#

nevermind, there's other reverse shell commands too

#

is netcat on most linux systems in actual pentesting?

slender scaffold
#

iirc yeah

tropic stratus

I googled netcat and it turns out it's almost 30 years old

I thought it was relatively new, 2010-ish

only time it's valuable is when somebody whitelists youtube.com on their client so it doesn't warn them before sending them to rick astley

never whitelist youtube

Why would you whitelist anything tbh

#

Just a possible security issue imo

crude stump

Too lazy to hit allow

i do appreciate the option existing tho

crude stump

Also saves you from accidentally clicking on a link

molten sky
#

cause screw devs who don't give options

gritty fern
#

speaking of options actually

#

I made a command line tool that cracks hashes!

#

very proud

#

It does them systematically though so anything more than 4 characters is unviable

lavish shell
#

Nice job, nit a bad program to havw

gritty fern
#

and you can input either a hash or a plaintext password with switches

polar spoke
molten sky
#

is it a brute force approach or a more granular(?) technique?

# molten sky that's me. i made hashcat. || don't ask to verify tho i don't ...

Given the inherent stochastic nature of the cryptographic hash functions utilized by the hashcat password recovery tool, and considering the computationally intensive process of iterating through the vast permutational space of potential password candidates within the context of a brute-force attack, how might one go about optimizing the time-space trade-off in relation to the granularity of the character set employed, while simultaneously mitigating the potential for collisions arising from the pseudo-random distribution of hash values across the range of possible digest outputs, and what implications might this have on the theoretical complexity bounds of the underlying algorithms in light of the asymptotic behavior of the hash functions under various input conditions, particularly with respect to the avalanche effect and its impact on the non-linearity of the resulting digest mappings?

I was waiting to ask the creator of hashcat that, now I finnaly found the person who can solve the question

#

it loosely asks "how can you optimize bruteforce and what impact does that have on collisions due to the nature of common hash functions"

#

the whole second half can be answered as "we don't care at all about the mappings/collision rate in the vast majority of cases"

molten sky
# polar spoke 😛

also you weren't even talking before
do you just sit there, staring, waiting for someone to mention hashes or cracking or hashcat

polar spoke

the first half has a more nuanced range of answers
