[chilly veldt]

lmao

I’m on the train atm my signal is really bad so the page won’t load

Probably best to move to #room-help or #room-bugs if you think the explanation is wrong

[mossy river]

Fr

[chilly veldt]

it happens

[buoyant tree]

Well just try replacing a few apples here and there

[terse edge]

I'm just trying to find out how an attacker can create a subdomain for a domain he does not own/control.

[buoyant tree]

it should fix it up although you may have to buy a few replacement apples

[mossy river]

At least they tested the computer before sending it back

Although I am filing a big complaint

[sick lance]

More than likely it could be a brand new website.

With the URL attacker.mybank.thm so people enter their credentials there.

That's just a rough guess without looking at the room.

[buoyant tree]

before you make the complaint just ask for it to be escalated to the proper department then make the complaint

[mossy river]

Mhm, there are designated channels in the discord server for these types of questions:)

[mossy river]

Escalate to who lol

[sand trench]

go aheads....

[naive violet]

There's many SaaS vendors that offer this, eg Shopify give you a subdomain

[terse edge]

I was going to ask in room help but didn't seem like a room help question so that's why I asked here.

No matter what I do, it's always wrong on this server, huh?

Sigh.

[sick lance]

That's not the case.

[buoyant tree]

the complaints dept?

[sick lance]

You're asking for help on THM material.

[mossy river]

I asked you to move lol, I didn’t say you were wrong

[buoyant tree]

Just always had better experience after asking it to be escalated to somebody

[mossy river]

Oh, yeah they do that all internally. There isn’t a complaints department. There’s a team who manage complaints and sort it out

[gray sonnet]

I don't mind

[mossy river]

I probably won’t have my PC until the end of next week at this rate

[terse edge]

Forget I quoted the room or linked it. I'm trying to find out how this could even be possible.

Generic question

[sick lance]

DNS records.

As James said, some websites give you a subdomain.

[boreal scarab]

Nevermind, I got it figureed out 😄

[buoyant tree]

Oh k, I had to manage with Razer support for a dozen weeks and just had better experience with it

[mossy river]

There are ton of explanations or ways to do this. It’s best to find out which one the room is referring to specifically

[buoyant tree]

Is your PC salvageable?

[terse edge]

It says attacker can create a subdomain for the domain mybank.thm but attacker doesn't own mybank.thm so how can he create that subdomain? That's confusing me.

[sand trench]

aaaand time for cheeses

[gray sonnet]

Here's a conspiracy theory: Shadow is just a big block of cheese 👀 /s

[mossy river]

It’s a prebuilt that I modified. They cover any damage

For free

[gray sonnet]

what are the specs like 👀

[terse edge]

How is the subdomain of mybank.thm controlled by the attacker? That's the confusing part. Is it a mistake in the room or a mistake in my understanding/reading/comprehension?

mybank.thm belongs to the bank. They own the domain. How can anyhone else create subdomains for it?

[mossy river]

3070, i7 12700, 32GB ram, 3TB M.2 NVMe

[gray sonnet]

there's 3TB drives?

[naive violet]

This may be a prerequisite for the attack. Either infrastructure compromise, domain hijacking, or a SaaS situation as I described where the vendor issues subdomains.

[terse edge]

Hmm

I'm sorry I'm not able to see/visualize

[naive violet]

It is quite normal to have dependencies for exploiting a vuln, those are called prerequisites.
Something like an authenticated RCE has the pre-req that you're authed. It may have more pre-reqs like a certain config.

[terse edge]

Sure, but how can an attacker create a subdomain for a domain he doesn't own. I just can't get understand this part.

[naive violet]

https://haqtify.com/writeup/subdomain-takeover-via-shopify/
https://hackerone.com/reports/416474

I have given three scenarios where that's possible. You can assume they may hijack existing subdomains instead; it's the same result.

[terse edge]

Oh hijacking

[naive violet]

I suggest you research subdomain takeover, as an important way that could happen

[terse edge]

ok

[naive violet]

One of multiple ways.

[rapid merlin]

Uh

Oh

Hi

[sick lance]

Tabletop dishwashers are amazing.

[tired peak]

tablebottom dishwashers are amazing

[terse edge]

The email contained a link to an attacker-controlled domain (attacker.mybank.thm)

Not attacker created domain.

I see.

controlled being the keyword

Also English is not my first language and so I struggle understanding things as well

[mossy river]

You guys don’t just use a cloth to clean your tables?

[shut hawk]

I personally use a roomba

[sick lance]

That's not what I meant

[rapid merlin]

"Thank you for your report. This DNS record was created because we originally planned to host the Exchange blog at https://blog.exchangemarketplace.com/, but we later decided to host it at https://exchangemarketplace.com/blog. The address https://blog.exchangemarketplace.com/ was never used, so the risk associated with this takeover is minimal. For that reason, we've decided that this report will not be eligible for a bounty."

[drifting mural]

It's like telling men to drive autopilot

[tired peak]

[mossy river]

Faulty mobo. I already knew the problem and told them how to fix it because of what happened last time

It should not have taken this long to fix

[rapid merlin]

2 weeks or something right?

[drifting mural]

you know these electric self driving cars

[mossy river]

Yes. Personally I don’t like them. I also find cleaning relaxing

[mossy river]

Yuh

[tired peak]

yes I know

I wouldn't trust self driving completely at this point

[mossy river]

I could have returned it for a refund and ordered a new one faster than getting mine repaired

[harsh sedge]

is nmaping a site with cloudflare meaningless?

[normal fable]

I like ASR rules.

[rapid merlin]

Only open edge or something

[harsh sedge]

uh i guess it is

[naive violet]

Given it's not the customer's IP or host

Pretty much entirely useless and arguably, as you're attacking cloudflare who you don't have consent from, could be illegal

[rapid merlin]

My IQ probably not enough.

I would say go for acer 272u if you have budget

Its amazing

I have a strict under 200 euros budget

But is it a good monitor?

That’s all I really need to know

I mean I’m guessing so

Any rooms about rdp on thm?

Anyone guess that os this is and I’ll give u a million

What were the "choices" made on this victim

Creativity in mu opinion comes with experience... The more experienced you are the more better way you can customize it and more creatively

Samsung?

I try to connect to a given IP of a server with the port of 21 and it works

I try to connect to the same server with a given ip with the port 49152 and it does not connect

I do not understand

The program in question is filezilla

I want to use it to transfer my personal files from one laptop to another directly, instead of using USB or another medium

[normal fable]

21 is clear text FTP.. not sure but I think SFTP (encrypted) is 49125. Or is it FTPS?? .. I'm dyslexic so it gets jumbled in my brain.

Possible that the port isn't open or you have the wrong creds.

[alpine nebula]

yo

does any company actually use the biba integrity model?

[naive violet]

SFTP is over SSH
FTPS can be 21 with upgrading, STARTTLS style

[oak river]

I changed to explicit FTP over TLS

\

By default it was FTP over TLS and insecure plain FTP

So I guess I have upgraded it this way?

[naive violet]

Honestly SMB or SCP are the way to go IMO

[normal fable]

Thanks for corrections James!

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @naive violet (current: #2 - 2161)

SCP > SMB for private info.. imo.

SMB is well encrypted

I'm not sure what's worse them saying it wasn't a driver. or the fact they used the .sys extention in the drivers folder....

Some part of their app uses a driver eh?

Newbie here. Is there a channel to discuss how to build rooms for TryHackMe?

[torpid furnace]

U do malware ?

[pine stratus]

u have 2 pcs and u want to transfer files from one to other?

[verbal gazelle]

No necessarily. I just have some questions about building a VM, uploading, etc

[cedar patio]

idk where to ask help from

[normal fable]

I would say no. As long as you trust everyone on your network you should be fine.

[torpid furnace]

Sure

What u need help w abt a vm

@verbal gazelle

[naive violet]

What's the problem?

[oak river]

I do

[oak river]

[rapid merlin]

Anyone here a Linux expert

Mind helping a brotha out. 😁

[normal fable]

Yes... No... Maybe?? Just ask.

There are a lot of perts here.. on ex's tho. 🤣

[rapid merlin]

I’m using Kali Linux. I’m new. So when I go into sudo visudo

When I press backspace to delete a letter

It takes me to another part. It dosnt

Delete the letter

[verbal gazelle]

Basically I was wondering is there any special export settings, etc? When I upload to THM it works well BUT I can't access the room when testing it out so I know I'm doing something wrong

[rapid merlin]

Is there a way to change that

Configure backspace to delete in visudo

[naive violet]

If you set your default editor to nano, it won't use vim

[clear jackal]

If you're in vi/vim you need to press i before you can make changes

[normal fable]

You gotta be in insert mode in vim.

[naive violet]

You can run export EDITOR=nano and it should respect that for your session @rapid merlin

[clear jackal]

And then esc to stop making changes

[normal fable]

Nano is good too. I just prefer neovim.

[bitter relic]

im trying to connect to room using the ip but it say "Unable to connect" and when i change to http it wout load even tho 10.10.10.10 working

[tidal quartz]

I need a linux distribution which is lightweight, fast and has some focus in privacy. Here's what I mostly use my computer for:

• Developing various projects
• Cybersecurity activities
  And then comes the less important stuff like surfing the web, writing articles etc.
  What would you recommend. I was thinking of Arch or Debian but fedora looks promising too.

[molten sky]

worth noting that lightweight more has to do with the spin rather the underlying distro. debian gnome is going to be significantly more bloated than deb server

[sand trench]

arch linux for rolling release and frequent updates to keep you secure
debian if you want slow updates but incredible stability and no need to update
fedora as a middle ground of the 2 above ones

endeavour os if you want easy to install arch linux that uses the upstream arch linux repos but with extra repo for nvidia drivers

[molten sky]

"with frequent updates to keep you secure"

all [still supported] distros get security updates as needed

rolling release only makes a difference for feature updates normally

[umbral bay]

Probably, but I'm listening to Bill Evans (jazz pianist), so not the right music for it. 😄

[sand trench]

debians security updates get delayed slightly as they have to make them compatible and working with the older versions of software @molten sky

[tidal quartz]

After all this time it seems like I'm going back to arch

[molten sky]

if it's severe enough it'll get pushed out just as quickly

[tidal quartz]

Well I don't have Nvidia drivers so I call endeavor bloated

[molten sky]

if it's a low priority you need physical access to the machine then sure

[sand trench]

also the major privacy gains is dependant on how you use your web browser

[sand trench]

eh in that case it will just have a single unused repo that adds basically no packages

i.e no harm done

[tidal quartz]

I have some basic opsec knowledge

[tidal quartz]

That's true

Plus endeavor is a cool name

[sand trench]

also also you can easily remove the repo from being used if you don't use it

though shadow uses their welcome utility to quickly check for arch news and stuff that needs manual attention for updating

[normal fable]

https://tenor.com/view/arch-linux-arch-linux-gif-25380879

[tidal quartz]

Hell yeah

Endeavor looks promising

[sand trench]

anyways for browsing here are some few pointers:
use an adblocker
use different profiles/accounts for different tasks in your browser
if using firefox set it to strict in privacy and security settings

[normal fable]

I absolutely love endeavors

[sand trench]

or well this exists: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefox/Privacy

[tidal quartz]

Yeah

[sand trench]

though shadow just puts in arkenfox user.js and throw their config of ublock origin on top and tada

basically as good as you can get while still keeping cookies for selected sites

[tidal quartz]

I always wanted the epic opsec build but my intel pentium 3gb ram computer says otherwise

[sand trench]

unless you run mullvad browser or tor browser

[tidal quartz]

Heh nice

[tidal quartz]

I rarely use tor browser but always have tor running in the back

[molten sky]

always have tor running in the back
why?

[sand trench]

that is bad

[tidal quartz]

What is bad

[icy jay]

hi guys! i was wondering if it's possible to to switch from windows to some linux os in hp laptop?

[sand trench]

if you are gonna use thor stick to the following setups:
tor browser for least safety
whonix for middle safety
tails for high safety
qubes os for maximum safety ( please reconsider using this as it is a pain )

[sand trench]

if you don't use tor browser or one of the projects shadow listed you are sending data over tor that is unique and stands out from every other tor user

which is bad

[molten sky]

yes

[sand trench]

yes and most things should work out of the box

i.e hardware things

[tidal quartz]

As in?

[sand trench]

software can be picky

[molten sky]

risk profile matters

[tidal quartz]

User agents etc?

[sand trench]

fonts
scripts
addons installed
audio stuffs
webgl
webrtc

[sand trench]

and yes user agents

[tidal quartz]

Thats bad

[icy jay]

alright i will give it a shot

[tidal quartz]

That's even worse

About webrtc

[sand trench]

try to make sure you have backups of your data and can go back to windows if nescary

[tidal quartz]

Theres a great plug in which prevents that

But I can't remember it

I think it's recommended by foxyproxy

[sand trench]

rather just disable it in about:config

[normal fable]

I didn't make it.. and I don't host it.. so.. 🤷

[tidal quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/boomer-alert-speaker-alarm-gif-15124610

[normal fable]

If you knew what a "boomer" was.... Lol

[tidal quartz]

You must be called a sigma in your town

[sand trench]

i.e skelly if you are gonna use tor please use the tor browser at least

[tidal quartz]

Noted

[sand trench]

to make you blend in with the crowd and the crowd blend in with you

[normal fable]

Not that old... I'm 45 and still younger than any "boomer"..

Child of.. but not myself.

[sand trench]

fun fact the window resolution of your browser is also a fingerprinting vector

[normal fable]

Young

I remember the 80s.. lol

[sand trench]

shadow caused y2k

[tidal quartz]

Yeah

[normal fable]

My CRS only affects my short term.. what were we talking about??

[sand trench]

*shadow hiding away the alternative darknets that are not tor and laughing

[normal fable]

There are no darknets... Shadow....

[rapid merlin]

Hey

[normal fable]

Hay.. for horses..

[sand trench]

fair... might have been refering to dark web

[sand trench]

also untrue... there is the defcon challenge called defcon darknet

[normal fable]

Maybe talks for advanced...

[sand trench]

yeah...

[tidal quartz]

Btw using tor for other purposes besides surfing the web is intended use not really bad. I suppose your statement was kn using tor without the tor browser to surf the web

[sand trench]

well browsing the regular web with tor is absolutely fine if you can stand all the captchas.. also on the sites you login on you are not anonymous but that should be a given

[normal fable]

Tor is a quite deep subject..

[sand trench]

or well some sites will outright block you because you are breaking their tos or security stuffs

[tidal quartz]

Yeah

[chilly veldt]

The fast is going pretty well ngl, I think I might make weight

[umbral bay]

Intermittent fasting?

[soft osprey]

I want Instagram bruteforce tool

[chilly veldt]

72 hour fast

I am on hour 51

[sand trench]

A man after midnight

nah that is fine

if you have water and salt intake

[pine stratus]

You drink water for sure?

[sand trench]

and if you are reasonably healthy to start

[pine stratus]

ok

fasting is good tho

[chilly veldt]

No, cause I am still getting 8 liters of water, my vitamins and minerals/supplements

[sand trench]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEjLoHdbVeE

[pine stratus]

a day ?

[chilly veldt]

Yup

Cause they are water dissolvable?

[pine stratus]

well u are the first person ik who drink 8 l of water a day

[sand trench]

that much water would give shadow water poisoning

[chilly veldt]

Not really, 8 liters is typical for fighters

And hardcore weightlifters

[pine stratus]

yes are u ?

[chilly veldt]

I am training a lot

[normal fable]

I'd do that and sell BBQ from my front yard. 🤣

[umbral bay]

It was a fun project. And tasty food!

[pine stratus]

Make sense !

u have specific diet ?

[chilly veldt]

Which is why I have to make weight, and by doing that I do the 72 hour fast which reduces my calorie intake and increases my water intake to create water weight instead of fat weight and therefore can easily drop said weight by decreasing my water intake the days before I need to make weight, and then pump up with high protein foods after having to make weight

[sand trench]

shadow is a chronic sit still infront of computer all day every day person

shadows back is hating it

gym is to expensive for shadow

and probably should go back to long out door walks every day

[sand trench]

and find a training routine that is doable with near 0 tools

[chilly veldt]

I have over the last 5-6 months lowered my calorie intake to lose fat/weight and therefore have trained my body to live on low amount of calories as well

[sand trench]

i.e:
situps
pushups
planking
hunters/90 degree wall sit
jumping jacks

[crude stump]

Why don’t you go to a local park and sit and breath in the air shadow

[sand trench]

now???

[crude stump]

No

[whole yew]

3-2-1 is the foolproof way to go with ribs on a pellet grill IMO

[sand trench]

if shadow did that right now if anyone saw shadow shadow would get weird stares

[crude stump]

Do you like birds

You could bird watch

[chilly veldt]

I count calories, that's my diet, over the last 6 months I have lost ~20 kgs, going from 101.2 to 81.5kg

[sand trench]

not that many interesting birds here

oof bella was heavy

somehow shadow is at about 75kilograms and eat near 200 grams of candy or snacks every day

[chilly veldt]

At 184 cm tall

And a wide build

[sand trench]

at 188cm tall

and shadow is probably decently wide too

[pine stratus]

thats actually good

[sand trench]

so somehow shadow has lower bmi then bella without any workouts

and with bad habbit of lots of candy

Which distro would you guys recommend for daily use? I was thinking of switching back to Linux, I think the last distro I used daily was PopOS (came with my laptop so I just stuck with it for a few months)

[quartz fog]

If i need to use linux for non-pentesting stuff I use Debian usually

[clear jackal]

It's going to depend on usecase

[cosmic pendant]

What Laptop comes with that?

[night prairie]

I'll mainly be doing some coding and using VMs every now and then
Don't think I'll be doing any gaming

[night prairie]

System76 hardware (the company which made PopOS)

[cosmic pendant]

neat

[night prairie]

I don't I've ever actually used just regular Debian

besides on servers

[clear jackal]

A RHEL derivative may be worth it then

[night prairie]

actually I think I might have used it a few times when I was younger, then switched to linux mint

[cosmic pendant]

Mint is good I hear, ubunutu of course.

not sure about the security out of the box

[night prairie]

I'll look into that then, thanks!
I've still never used redhat or fedora yet

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @clear jackal (current: #17 - 440)

[night prairie]

want to try gentoo as well at some point

[clear jackal]

Yeah, I've heard good things about Mint revolving around games

[clever shard]

The cinnamon desktop ia pretty cool and fun to mess around with too in mint

[clear jackal]

Yeah, iirc you'll need a free developer license to actually use RHEL RHEL, but Fedora, Alpine Alma, and Rocky are all free

[night prairie]

I haven't used it in at least like 8 years, but back when I did use it, it was pretty good, I didn't use it too often though

[cosmic pendant]

I don't trust direct RH anymore, since the fedora change

Go with Rocky, or Alpine types

[clear jackal]

I misspoke, Alma not Alpine

[cosmic pendant]

Alpine is the really slimed down annoying thing to use for some docker images 😄 But I had no idea about Alma 😄

[clear jackal]

Alma, i think, is a one to one to RHEL

I think Rocky was until recently as well

I might have it flipped though

Both are binary compatible

[cosmic pendant]

Have to protect yourself from CrowdStrike 😄

[clear jackal]

Yes, protect yourself from the driver that's not actually a driver in the driver folder

[cosmic pendant]

exactly

[clear jackal]

obfuscation

jazz hands

[cosmic pendant]

haha

Everyone that isn't working on vertically integrating their supply chain should be terrified

take the temp. ribs should be 203F to be totally done.

I usually do 3 hours on the smoker at 225, then wrap in foil with some sauce to steam for an hour, then make a boat out of the foil and brush on sauce. Smoke until the sauce gets tacky and internal temp is your preferred tenderness between 195 and 203

[whole yew]

you mean centos?

(I'm not being facetious, being alive is an accomplishment)

[normal fable]

Much love and appreciation for EMTs.

[gray sonnet]

I'm still looking into what I could mess with lol

[molten sky]

spidering has some basic support now if you wanted to poke around that side

(emphasis on basic)

[swift kite]

hello all

[gray sonnet]

I'll poke into it and see what I can do haha

[swift kite]

Hows the weather

[molten sky]

eh it's weathering

[swift kite]

hah

[tired peak]

hot

[swift kite]

The heat is terrible here

My fan is trying a thing

[tired peak]

I complain but we aren't hot as other places

[swift kite]

Mhmm

[split compass]

grumbles about how does a CCNA not know a rollover cable

[tired peak]

is that something they teach? I don't remember cabling being part of it

[split compass]

My understanding is, it's a practical exam, that includes using the serial console to configure various parameters.

[tired peak]

yes it is, configure routers, understand routing protocols and what not

[split compass]

Right, so how do you connect to the serial console?

[tired peak]

it was such a long time ago, I don't remember what was on the exam but like physical cabling doesn't seem like something it would've

yeah, console cables

[split compass]

Rollover cable... Like it tells you in the books for ICND1 and ICND2

The books do also explain the pin out. At least mine did.

Anyway this guy, has never seen one, but has his CCNA. Doesn't know anything about CIDR, VLANs, subnets, supernets.

Think he got his cert from a crackerjack box.

[tired peak]

or did exam dumps

[split compass]

TIA-568a/b are easy enough

Rollover cable is literally called that because it's 1-8, 8-1

[tired peak]

although I don't know about current CCNA exam, when I did it, you had to configure things in a faux router cli

[split compass]

He did it (supposedly) around the time I studied for but didn't write because I was a poor student.

So 2009 era

[tired peak]

didn't write?

[clear jackal]

New one went multiple choice iirc

[crude stump]

Nothing is more infuriating then a fake png

[clear jackal]

Like all multiple choice

[split compass]

Yeah Cisco certs are expensive when you're a broke single father college student.

[tired peak]

I still don't know what you mean in this context

didn't write = didn't take? or something else?

[split compass]

I studied ICND1&2, scored high on the testout exams, but never spent money on going to write/take the exam.

I had vouchers for comptia, that's why I have net+

[tired peak]

ahh

[split compass]

And ? No doubt.

[tired peak]

I was lucky, work paid for mine, paid for training class and exam

well I say I was lucky, I should say, work expected me to get the CCNA

[kindred apex]

Hii

[split compass]

I've never had work cover my skills or maintenance.

[kindred apex]

Hi

[tired peak]

not sure what they would've done if I didn't pass

[split compass]

But they love that I'm MS certified and such.

[kindred apex]

Hi 👋

[tired peak]

I was a network admin at the time

O

[kindred apex]

👋

[tired peak]

I'm glad I don't do pentesting, I think I'd stab myself in the eye if I had to do web apps

its just tedious

[gray sonnet]

Sounds like @shadow loom

[tired peak]

perhaps, not sure what Birb does but I tried to sit down and do a web course and I was like "nope, not gonna even do this"

I mean its hard to learn anything from a medium article...

[crude stump]

What’s web apps

Web application?

[tired peak]

yes

[crude stump]

Ah

Tell em about it tho, medium has to be the most unhelpful website I’ve ever came across

[molten sky]

the only people who use medium are people who want to be able to say they use medium

there is no real substance anywhere to be found

yours is the exception of course

[cedar patio]

@naive violet securing devices

help idk what to

[crude stump]

@rapid merlin

[crude stump]

Help with what

[cedar patio]

securing devices

[white forum]

subnetting is a difficult concept this is tough bros i just want to hack the planet is that too much to ask

[rapid merlin]

the kids nowadays

[molten sky]

let's be as vague and nondescript as possible to make it easier for every one to help you

[white forum]

put a password that might help

[rapid merlin]

nah just buy a nokia

life is too short to remember password

[white forum]

yea or just stop using devices all together

[crude stump]

We’ll have a solid password. Number one, like you are locking up your car. 2 back up your devices incase anything happens and you can get your data back. 3 don’t share important information with anyone unless they can be trusted

[rapid merlin]

damn it

[crude stump]

Beat ya

[rapid merlin]

I thought writting password on post-it and put them on my windows was a good idea

[crude stump]

Those 2 contradict themselves. Your vpn blocked hacker blocked you

[rapid merlin]

how is that even possible

yeah lmao

chat is this real

haru if the hacker has acces to vpn or your network

[crude stump]

Can you explain a little more clearer haru

[rapid merlin]
