How dare someone else steal my meme I stole from you, who stole from someone else!

[mellow narwhal]

My mind jumped to RCE

idk why

[lusty patrol]

😶‍🌫️

[polar shale]

Ohhh i feel that. Why im sipping yerba rn until lunch !!

Movie was actually pretty fuxkjng crazy i actually had to turn away

Like scary movies really arent bad but sometimes i really dont wanna see intense gore lol

[cinder cloak]

what movie is that he looks cute

[wooden totem]

it was literally advertised as the cutest movie in a decade, the third one

[polar shale]

I think it called haloween or something im not sure there is like 3 of them though

[polar shale]

Yea i turned away at every gore scene lol

Bro the laundromat part was crazy asf

[cinder cloak]

season of the witch?

[wooden totem]

so you basically didn't watch the movie, cus the story aint exactly good

[polar shale]

Dude just waiting for his laundry

[polar shale]

Lol i had was peeping through my handa a bit 😂😂

[wooden totem]

https://tenor.com/view/clown-terrifier-gif-18365297569277171027

its called terrifier

[cinder cloak]

i found it

why was he dressed as santa for the split second i returned to the tab

[polar shale]

Thats right

[wooden totem]

btw you can skip the first movie, it doesnt give much to the story

[cinder cloak]

so cute!

[peak hare]

o:

[wooden totem]

he borrowed that beard he's wearing of the mall santa's closet

spoilers

[cinder cloak]

gender affirming surgery ❤️ we love to see it

[polar shale]

Tbh i dont even think this movie can be spoiled for abybody with its intesity lol

And then the little gurl hallucination was fucking weird 💀 😂

Anybody tried yerba mate?

[wooden totem]

the whole movie, each movie is weird

they didnt even stop at the line with cotton candy machine, lots of family friendly content

[polar shale]

😂😭

[grizzled wing]

🌾

[topaz topaz]

Don't skip terrifier 1!!!! It's way better than 2 😭

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-lala-dance-happy-lightsaber-party-gif-16525972

[wooden totem]

lower budget and it kinda shows, might not bother others but it did me

[topaz topaz]

It had its charm and also better kills with a more Mysterious aura imo. The second movie goes to crap from the second half afterwards

[wooden totem]

the best scene was probably the "cutting the cake in the middle for girl's birthday party"

[wooden totem]

they fr need better story

[topaz topaz]

Yup that was really memorable

[topaz topaz]

I haven't watched 3 yet but I wanna

[loud marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/pinhead-no-crying-gif-11302911

[wooden totem]

the gore looks a lot better, its also a lot weirder, story is still of the lower quality in my opinion

[eternal timber]

Cheers to a productive day

[topaz topaz]

Goddamnit.. hyped for the gore though

[topaz topaz]

Cheers boss

[wooden totem]

nah its still worth watching, I really liked the cinematography

[topaz topaz]

An improvement over the last you'd say?

[wooden totem]

huge

[eternal timber]

I’m lowkey sleepy but I don’t want to waste my day

[wooden totem]

for anyone reading chat and getting curious - the movie franchise is literally the goriest thing you can watch, dont schedule a family watch together

[eternal timber]

Gore isn’t my thing

[loud marlin]

you like old school horror movies ?

[arctic knot]

Hey yall. Does anyone know if thm has any guidelines about having public writeups (as for instance on your own website) for the different challenges in the rooms, i know that there no hints here for a while? I have just gotten the blog part of my website up and thinks that it is the best place to have my writeups(i need to start writing them).

Any advice is appreaciated and have a great weekend 😎

[wooden totem]

not too old

[chilly veldt]

Writeups are 72 hours after release as well, plus no flag sharing, so you can't just copy paste, preferably that you send it in on thm on the room, so the room creator can approve, those are the "rules"

Oh, and I think premium rooms are a no go either

[loud marlin]

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086814/?ref_=tt_mv_close is one of old nice tv serries

[arctic knot]

ight, just what i thought! Thanks

[twin ridge]

You're welcome! Happy hacking

[wooden totem]

that falls under the definition of too old

[loud marlin]

ehhe. also if wish to check
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096708/

and yes. im that old

[wooden totem]

yeah I was about to ask

[loud marlin]

also nice movie
Thir13en Ghosts

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0245674/?ref_=fn_all_ttl_1

from time when movies was great

[wooden totem]

im impressed that you know a movie after 2000

[loud marlin]

a bit yea. but for me this new bullcrap area of movies are just crap

also one of nice old
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0259153/

[dark frost]

Back then they made movie to tell a story , in todays ages they just copy paste the old films

[pliant onyx]

[drowsy holly]

Is it ethical to do challenges on THM and see the steps of other users' solutions? To be honest, I wouldn't be able to finish any of them.. But that's how I learn.. What do you think?

[dark frost]

We are here to learn

You drank too much coffee last night

[eternal timber]

Only at 8 pm

Caffeine has a half life of about 6 hours iirc so it shouldn’t be a problem now

[atomic atlas]

for optimal sleep and recovery

[dark frost]

I didn't eat much today . I am hungry now 🍽

[dark mason]

I might stop using burp permanently

[fervent cove]

is it worth reading the whole msfconsole modules or is my autism flaming

[dark mason]

I think I am gonna switch to caido

[fervent cove]

will it just end up working out using the search function to find what I need in the practical world

[dark frost]

Great job , what did you learn interresting ?

[fervent cove]

maybe i didnt use the correct term, I didnt mean the thm modules. I mean reading through each payload/auxilary/exploit etc

[eternal timber]

Autism flaring but it might come in handy

You can always check for what you want

[dark mason]

I'd say not worth it

Just use the search command when u need too

[dark frost]

Where did you read it ?

[dark mason]

• Metasploit isn't exactly used in the wild

[fervent cove]

yeah, thats what im also interested about

[dark mason]

Usually only meterpreter is used in the wild

[fervent cove]

metaploit seems like it'd be loud

[dark mason]

Not the exploits and modules

[fervent cove]

what, maybe i dont understand, what do you mean?

[dark mason]

You are talking about exploits which are rarely used in real world scenarios

[fervent cove]

oh interesting

[dark mason]

In real world scenarios only meterpreter is used

[fervent cove]

thats unfortuante as the exploits are the most interesting

[dark mason]

Not only but mostly

[dark mason]

Sometimes you might get lucky, Sometimes you don't

It's useful for ctfs tho

[fervent cove]

makes sense, i definitely prefer to be more practical

stuck at a dead end system engineer job i wanna get out of lol

[dark mason]

What would you like to get into?

Red teaming, pentesting?

[rugged kayak]

its good for small scale attacks but there are better C2 servers/clients

[sturdy pike]

any good guide on hardening linux? There are many but which do you prefer?

[fervent cove]

im completely new, but I honestly thought red teaming and pentesting were the same thing

[dark mason]

Combine Metasploit and armitage and you have a solid c2 framework

[cloud quiver]

https://tryhackme.com/r/room/linuxsystemhardening

this one 🙂

[sturdy pike]

Ah yes, been looking at the crumbs when the meal is in front of me lol, thanks a lot!

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @cloud quiver (current: #2 - 2445)

[rugged kayak]

armitage is kinda just gui for metasploit, no?

[dark mason]

Kinda, but it's basically free cobalt strike

But without the extreme stealth

[dark mason]

Red teaming is pentesting but with extra steps (and extra fun)

[jolly aspen]

Anxious Pale Shakespeare Treated Nervous Drunks Patiently

[dark mason]

Are you ok my dude?

[jolly aspen]

yes, are you?

[sick lance]

Armitage is no longer supported

[dark mason]

Still works

[sick lance]

Won't be updated though.

[dark mason]

Ye I know

The author created cobalt strike after if I am not mistaken

in my head i just say apstndp to remember it i dont know what to say

it sounds funny

[jolly aspen]

same, just stumpled on this one and thought it was funny

[cinder cloak]

i feel like remembering that is harder

its a lot of syllables

all the normal mnemonics use one syllable

per word

[snow igloo]

THM is Awesome!

[jolly aspen]

haha yep

but it is silly enough, the real trick with mnemonics is sensory inclusion

[eternal timber]

Ohhh I see the problem

That was dumb of me

[cinder cloak]

that is how i comment my code

He’s based on skibidi

It's not a real story though 😦

[grave hatch]

I have a dumb question

I went to OWASP top 10 site and when I was looking through the list, why does it refer the most updated list as 2021?

does it get updated every four years?

[sand trench]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

it updates when it needs to update or something like that

[grave hatch]

I see because I also saw this and that made me wonder if it was a four year thing

[sand trench]

dunno ¯_(ツ)_/¯

might be every 4 years

[sand trench]

aaw.....

[chilly veldt]

Yeahhh

[sand trench]

bella how much is a carton of milk in denmark right now????

[loud marlin]

[loud marlin]

in school: if apple is green, and rainbow multi-color. Then how far is sun from Neptune ?

[chilly veldt]

Not sure, I think 14dkk

[eternal timber]

See if the apple is green then that means it reflects that color more than other colors and-

[loud marlin]

yes

[blazing granite]

@loud marlin hi! 👋 how are you?

[eternal timber]

Actually I wonder how ChatGPT would respond to this

[loud marlin]

just don't

and doing some 3d prints. ordered 4x led disk for lamps so making some cool lamps. glow in dark and so

[blazing granite]

free weekend 🥳 enjoy it. I'm still in Argentina and I'll be here for a long while, thing to take care of and tighten loose ends

[eternal timber]

The funny thing is that since there are already green apples and rainbows are indeed multicolored, the answer would just be Neptune’s distance from the sun rn

[blazing granite]

@chilly veldt 👋

[eternal timber]

Lemme try apple is blue

[loud marlin]

when you start take hostages, ppl start cooperate better 🙂

not actual advice. since im not in that area 🙂

[blazing granite]

I'm on sabbatical, I'm managing family properties, money, dealing with lawyers, etc. It's not as fun as it sounds 😂 😛

[eternal timber]

After a lot of prompting

[uncut cove]

Will the orbits alter when the Sun becomes a red giant?

[loud marlin]

pardon my french... u are ||idiot|| ❤️

[eternal timber]

Depends on the solar mass. It could be more or less than our sun now

[eternal timber]

Excuse me?

[chilly veldt]

Sup sup

[loud marlin]

joke ofc... is like my boss tell me: you are like blue dwarf star. big and shiny, but not so bright
that kind of joke

All good

I’m also super sleepy rn

[blazing granite]

it found it funny 🙂 I guess depends on the person

[loud marlin]

yea... the sarcastic dark jokes are best

[blazing granite]

my kind of humour, but not everybody's cup of tea

[eternal timber]

Must be an old person thing

I’m joking btw

[blazing granite]

not really. It's an smart and educated person thing. I'm dark and sarcastic since I was 12 years old.

[eternal timber]

Not sure about dark but I tend to be sarcastic too

[loud marlin]

true. after 30+ things get weird 🙂

[eternal timber]

You gotta tweak your question to “if an apple that appears red right now appears blue under new conditions, tell me how the sun and the relationship it has with the earth would need to change”

Or smth like that

    y_true, y_pred, *, labels=None, sample_weight=None, normalize=None
):```found the function in the _classification.py file

[mellow narwhal]

Lol, interesting I guess

[hushed heath]

Yes just joined and said hi few times but no replies

[eternal timber]

I see

[hushed heath]

Yeah

[hushed heath]

What's your major ?

[mellow narwhal]

Nope. It's knowledge cutoff is December 2023. And it can write POCs for all CVEs up till then

so its probably been trained on custom datasets

[eternal timber]

Yes but does it use the ChatGPT model?

[eternal timber]

I’m currently a mathematical physics PhD candidate 🫡

[hushed heath]

That's great 👍

you need to verify

[delicate sundial]

Guys let’s say there is a website you have to use during an exam, on your own laptop

can the website make it so the teacher can follow on everyone’s screen ?

[sick lance]

Unless you download and install a remote software application, no.

[delicate sundial]

😂😂😂 letsgoo I knew it

[sick lance]

But if you're caught cheating, your exam may be null and voided.

[delicate sundial]

Statistics 2 is a openbook laptop exam and everyone had the exam today and it went terrible for them i was sick and I retake it soon

[hushed heath]

Idk i never tried it but there is this app chegg but it requires subscription but it gives youtube notes not sure about live

[delicate sundial]

The teacher said something about being able to follow everyone so most where afraid to cheat

[eternal timber]

Me

[delicate sundial]

But I know someone who used chatgpt and solved the exam easily

And so far no mail about fraud

[eternal timber]

Just don’t cheat

[delicate sundial]

so

bro I have to

it’s the craziest exam

[eternal timber]

What’s the point in learning

[delicate sundial]

And I get my laptop

[ivory oasis]

Quick question, a friend of mine got hit with Medusa virus. I asked him to isolate the system. What Can I do to help hom? He don't have a backup

[sick lance]

Virus scan.

[delicate sundial]

I had 9 exams this semester I did all fairly

[eternal timber]

If everyone else flunks it, it’ll probably get curved

Also just study

[sick lance]

If in doubt, re-image.

[delicate sundial]

I mean the ninth is the stat exam

My friends who did the course last year all whatsapped during the exam and had great points

I need it too

[sick lance]

Ransomware?

[ivory oasis]

@sick lance yes

I was reading online and thought someone here might know something

[delicate sundial]

Oh yes 0 and it’s fraud so u get expelled

[sick lance]

And marked.

[sick lance]

But this could also null the exam for the class.

[jolly aspen]

Shit stains of society

[sick lance]

Re-image, if the files are encrypted you'd need to the key.

[hushed heath]

Damnn I thought u have take notes while live lol

[jolly aspen]

The irony is strong today

[ivory oasis]

Do you know of any way we can find the key or find a way to decrypt the files

[wooden totem]

There are decryptors available as far as I know

[hushed heath]

What is it ?

[sick lance]

Do you know of any way we can find the key
No.

Not sure, I don't live in the same city. Let me ask

[mellow narwhal]

The machines in the older ones don't respond

[jolly aspen]

But I think some of the room points aren’t accurate

[sick lance]

Only one of them.

[grizzled wing]

the speedrunning points is dumb

[mellow narwhal]

Two for me

But I'll try again later

[blazing granite]

🥦

[jolly aspen]

Of course. But a pointed approach is interesting. But the introtonetworking room is not accurate

[desert kelp]

hello everyone

[eternal timber]

5 day streak

[jolly aspen]

It’s definately not 1320, not even close

[desert kelp]

how are yall doing

[desert kelp]

congrats brother keep going

[sick lance]

Where did you get 1320 from?

[grizzled wing]

agreed. i did not keep track of points when i did rooms, so i dont know for sure the points accuracy

[jolly aspen]

The GitHub repo listed above, someone aggregated all the rooms by points

[pliant onyx]

3 day for me

[hushed heath]

Gud,wbu ?

[grizzled wing]

🦖

[jolly aspen]

I imagine is has something to do with the age of the room too

[sick lance]

It's a walkthrough room, so typed answers will be 8.

For monthly score, it will be 2.

[blazing granite]

👋 sup

[wooden totem]

That's odd, tips of my fingers are purple when cold

[jolly aspen]

Sure. But the repo lists 1320 as the total. And it was closer to 180 ish

[eternal timber]

I just do a question a day

[grizzled wing]

i guess it gives people who want to "hack" the point system and level up fast without really knowing stuff

[sick lance]

Is the repo a TryHackMe on?

[jolly aspen]

Not really, it’s by question

[pliant onyx]

I do a room or more a day

[grizzled wing]

today i went and redid the rootme room, i have to practice rev shells, such a weak point for me

[blazing granite]

I don't keep score

[rapid merlin]

with no secret key and main message? oh noo

[eternal timber]

Yes

[grizzled wing]

neither do i, just talking about the github repo where points are shown by room and level

[sick lance]

+740 points.

[jolly aspen]

No. Some one wrote a script pulling the rooms scoreboards and calculated the scores of each room

[grizzled wing]

i found it 2 weeks ago

i was looking for something else but took note

[pliant onyx]

john --format=sha612crypt -w=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt hash.txt

Did I miss anything

[jolly aspen]

But they aren’t accurate. And it doesn’t really matter, since points are by question. Doing specific rooms first doesn’t really game anything. You still have to answer the question so if you are just powering through on points it’s the same no learn outcome anyways

[pliant onyx]

woah

[grizzled wing]

thanks for the reminder to redo john rooms

[sick lance]

Points for intro to networking is 1320.

According to the scoreboard.

[jolly aspen]

No way

[sick lance]

Way.

[jolly aspen]

I can tell you it’s 100% not giving those points

[sick lance]

30 points per question.

[grizzled wing]

pathways do reward points nicely

[jolly aspen]

It’s not adding them then

[rapid merlin]

how would you gain access to the hashed passwords when keepass is protecting them hmmmm

[jolly aspen]

Wizard 12000 pts. I’m at 12184. I was at wizard before I started the room

[pliant onyx]

Uh
By asking you very nicely

👉👈

[rapid merlin]

Bro thinks hes albanian virus

[naive violet]

Keepass doesn't hash passwords

[pliant onyx]

kek

[rapid merlin]

my masterpass is hashed

[naive violet]

Not sure this is the sort of comment you want to make

[sick lance]

Possible age of room.

[naive violet]

For a KDF, bit different

[wooden totem]

Clicking trending gifs on discord mobile will crash it

[sick lance]

Top scorer for the room has 1320 points.

[jolly aspen]

Yea that was my thought

[sick lance]

Yup

352 is now the max points.

[jolly aspen]

It covered a lot of content other more recent rooms cover

[sick lance]

User who has the most points completed it in 2020.

[jolly aspen]

Also not accurate though

Must be half that

[rapid merlin]

is soc simulator gonna stay here after jan 31?

[sick lance]

Yes, but to business users.

[rapid merlin]

oh yikes

[jolly aspen]

At some point it seems that when a room reaches a certain age. It’s points drop to less that 8pts per question

Or some other reason. Because the points from that room were at most 180

it might open up to regular users again if we are lucky... like how red team capstone network went around

[rapid merlin]

oh yea btw u cant decrypt sha512

unless ofc

you try to find matching hash

[pliant onyx]

That's what's called a dictionary attack, which John does

[naive violet]

Crack, not decrypt

It's not encrypted.

[desert kelp]

Great! Thank you for asking

[eternal timber]

I knew about dictionary attacks almost about a decade ago and way before I had any substantial cyber skills

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @hushed heath (current: #2621 - 1)

[naive violet]

Terminology is important for cryptography

[sand trench]

same.... had fun messing with hashcat and randomly generated hashdumps

this was back in 2010:s

[rapid merlin]

how do i remove the encrypted drive from quick access

oh what the hell

remove from quick access makes it a picture

[sick lance]

Unpin it.

[rapid merlin]

it's not pinned it just goes there everytime i mount the drive

[pliant onyx]

Uh Scrubz I wanna dm you an image which I wanna ask if I can share here

Is a meme

[sick lance]

If you have to ask...

That's usually a clue.

[pliant onyx]

Ikik, but

[jolly aspen]

@grizzled wing it seems a script to see which rooms are still <30 days is the most helpful

[rapid merlin]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/662163422279893003/975416709785731092/genius.gif

i have so many memes

[grizzled wing]

you did further analysis of the repo 🔍 , great work

🍟

[jolly aspen]

Well, most of the new levels aren’t feasible even if you completed every single room

[grizzled wing]

if this repo did a answer dump that would change the dynamic of the repo

[rapid merlin]

Does someone here have Python 3.12.7

[sick lance]

I have 3.13.

[jolly aspen]

That would be lame tho

[rapid merlin]

can u test something for me

[sick lance]

No. 😄

[rapid merlin]

it's not working for me and im not sure if its the version

[pliant onyx]

I just downloaded 3.12.8

For work

[rapid merlin]

can u try sum for me rq

[pliant onyx]

Is it tkinter

[grizzled wing]

for sure, the points in general is "oh thats neat" and thats it, not really helpful on learning

[rapid merlin]

no its a webscraper program

[pliant onyx]

Hmm testing programs is usually frowned upon since it can be unsafe

[sick lance]

Especially on a work laptop.

[pliant onyx]

amen

[rapid merlin]

its fully open source

[pliant onyx]

which is the only thing I have rn

[sick lance]

Why are we scraping for Roblox users?

[karmic hemlock]

The mines yearn for my presence

[jolly aspen]

Craftmines will always be there. Top 40,000 is dynamic

[karmic hemlock]

And i yearn for them

[rapid merlin]

to check whether a player is in a game or not

i was paid to make it

[grizzled wing]

do you have all of the safety materials?

did you pack a lunch?

[sick lance]

If you're paid to make it, don't offer it in here...

[jolly aspen]

Great, you can pay us to test it

[karmic hemlock]

Of course, fully plated diamond armor, a wooden shield, a stack of bread, a sword and a pickaxe

[pliant onyx]

What's the room chat

uh nvm

[jolly aspen]

We can add that to the shirt

[grizzled wing]

nice. time for the safety dance 🎶

[karmic hemlock]

I enjoy danger though

[karmic hemlock]

Just like I'm totally joking when I say I lift without a spotter

[cosmic grove]

[pliant onyx]

There was a video where someone installed Windows XP (it was mutahar I just remembered) and he opened it to the world

[karmic hemlock]

And drive over the posted speed limit

[pliant onyx]

And all sorts of hackers started sending him all sorts of malwares

[karmic hemlock]

And go swimming right after i eat

But, well, it's working on my 3.12.8, so I guess I'm sticking to that, but I am curious why it wasn't working on my 3.13.1 (unless I had something greater installed, which I doubt)

[grizzled wing]

[grizzled wing]

being tall is just a variable in life,

[warm locust]

you guys are from which countries?

[grizzled wing]

all

[wooden totem]

ketchup isnt specific to tomatoes

[karmic hemlock]

I understand that, and I've accepted mine for how it is

[sand trench]

having centeral Heterochromia is another variable in life

[karmic hemlock]

But if I had the opportunity to change it, I can't be dishonest and say that I wouldn't

[eternal timber]

I’m from Alpha Centauri

[rugged kayak]

ketchup is energy drink, made from fruite and contains a lot of sugar

[karmic hemlock]

I absolutely would rather be 6 foot than my current height

[grizzled wing]

good to accept the terms and conditions

[warm locust]

?

[upper knoll]

as someone over 6ft no no u wouldnt its not as good as people make it out to be

your variable seems to have low value

My school's IT teacher sucks!

[sand trench]

an eye with centeral heterochromia

[grizzled wing]

that is unpleasant to see

[sand trench]

oh....

[dark mason]

She didn't know how to change a file extension

[pliant onyx]

This is the kinda time where I go to the writeup and get the password without letting the command run all the way

[sand trench]

yeah forgot that people have problems looking at eyes in close ups

[upper knoll]

you die sooner being tall and not just by a small amount compared to smaller people and i have to worry everywhere i go if ill be comfortable its not all its cracked up to be

[pliant onyx]

Or, I can just refine my brute force, but who does that

@sand trench what window tiling manger should i go with on my Kali VM ?

hah Luigi Mangione, nice abs

[sand trench]

probably sway for wayland or i3wm for x11/xorg

[loud marlin]

thanks... is pain in ass to set things and so

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @minor patio (current: #2621 - 1)

[sand trench]

hyprland is not supported well on none bleeding edge rolling release

[rapid merlin]

yeah it can be a pain, I'm still learning/figuring out DE customizations

[loud marlin]

i set it up. but is crap... not stable

[grizzled wing]

my kali is not bleeding edge

[sand trench]

hence why sway or i3wm

[loud marlin]

this is arch with hyprland and ml4w github script/settings

[grizzled wing]

i thought Kali came with tiling manager, but nope

[rapid merlin]

Whats hyperland?

A DE?

[loud marlin]

yea

[sand trench]

nah think it is either xfce or gnome

[rapid merlin]

Ahh Ill check it out.

[eternal timber]

Diabolical pfp

[rapid merlin]

Im an xfce guy.

[loud marlin]

is based onto using keyboard more than mouse

[sand trench]

hyprland is a wayland window manager/compositor

[rugged kayak]

kali actaully has i3 packages and rather nice prebuilt config

[sand trench]

yeah i3wm is nice

it is what shadow used for ages

[rapid merlin]

Ahhh I might actually try it. It's superrrrr clean.

[rugged kayak]

there is i3-dotfiles package in official kali repo

[grizzled wing]

i entered i3 then asks if i want to install it

[loud marlin]

looks like this and so

[sand trench]

^ hyprland not i3wm

[wary ocean]

yall over here with fancy linux shit and i have the bare bones kali

[round orbit]

I hate this question. I’ll counter with “as much as you can give me” or “as much as you’d like to give me + 15%”

[grizzled wing]

haha

[rugged kayak]

i used it before hyprland on my main os and i use it still in my pentest vm

[wary ocean]

only thing ive dont to it was change the background to purple the hotbar to orange

[grizzled wing]

not even tmux?

[wary ocean]

idek what that is

[sand trench]

good old tmux

[wary ocean]

thats a lie, i changed the term to black on green as well

[grizzled wing]

terminal multiplexer

[wary ocean]

idk if thats tmux tho

[grizzled wing]

THM has tmux room

[sand trench]

think there are actually multiple tmux rooms

[grizzled wing]

https://tryhackme.com/r/room/rptmux @wary ocean

[wary ocean]

i have them saved and never done them 😅

[grizzled wing]

yea, i thought it was just 1 haha

Heyo. I'm looking for someone to help me with/discuss a sandbox escape challenge. I've built it myself, it's based on real life stuff. I think there should be a way how to escape (based on what i've read about this topic so far), but i'm not as familiar with this stuff in general (low level C calls, .. ) so i've been struggling with it for a couple days at this point. DM please 🙂
Not sure if there's a better channel for this

[rapid merlin]

maybe a powernap will help... :D i'll be like just 30 minutes and wake up 4 hours later

anyone got any fun projects/study plans for the wkend?

[sick lance]

What's it for?

[eternal timber]

Yes

[rapid merlin]

I’m hungry 😖

[eternal timber]

Sick

[rapid merlin]

dunno what that mean

[hardy ibex]

that's the thing, i don't 🤷 Based on what i've read about this (considering the setup), it should be possible but i don't know how to do it exactly. There's not that many resources about such particular setup that i've found online (no shellcode required) so i'm trying to get some help on this

[rapid merlin]

power nap? hmmm like you sleep a little to recharge your batteries 😅 nice profile :)

[rapid merlin]

ohhhhhhhhh

[grizzled wing]

Powernap : is when you put Powershell into sleep mode, then lay down for ~ 30 minutes

[rapid merlin]

and wake up an eternity later because alarm snoose xD

[grizzled wing]

the alarm didn't go off because windows had to update

[hardy ibex]

I have a feeling the hammer isn't far from coming out

[hardy ibex]

Is there any better place on this server for this? I've been trying to get help with this in various other communities in the last days but it just seems that everyone is ignoring me for some reason.

[sick lance]

Or, nobody knows/wants to help you

Nobody is obligated to help you.

[hardy ibex]

I get that part, but at the same time i just felt like that this was somewhat interesting topic and i assumed there's a lot of knowledgeable people around

[serene shadow]

little harsh, perhaps?

[boreal scarab]

A snowmobile

[sand trench]

shadow does not want to help with sandbox escapes as how often it is used for malicious purposes

[karmic hemlock]

"Imagine the server got bombed"

(person named LOOKOUTBOOM appears) 💀

[serene shadow]

lol

[sick lance]

Not at all.

It's blunt.

this was my name for world of tanks blitz and minecraft (creepers)...nothing to do with here lol

[karmic hemlock]

Ik I'm not accusing you of anything I just love perfect comedic timing

[serene shadow]

I didnt think you were, but that is perfect timing lol!

[opaque flax]

👀

[rapid merlin]

Gib thanx 🫳🏻 😂

[sand trench]

it is an interesting topic but it is also a dangerous one... a lot of people would avoid helping with sandbox escapes due to how often they lead to very very very bad malwares

[rapid merlin]

Im so out of touch with pentesting, used to be on hackthissite and hellboundhackers when I was in highschool. That was 20 years ago. Getting back into it now that I'm disabled and cannot work anymore.

So thank you for this website/service. Haven't done much but its really well done and tons of great info.

🤷 i'd gladly share the poc to create it. My intentions are not malicious anyhow. I get that it's a completely empty statement, but imo there are way more interesting vulnerabilities (and way more common) out there such as PII leaks. It's just a basic linux shell with anything that you'd like to have around. I was just trying to understand a bit more the low level stuff that the escape (that i've read about) should be based on, but it just wasn't working at all

[grizzled wing]

amusing thought:

the rapper T-Pain, could be a fun username but in linux context T-Pane for tmux haha

[rapid merlin]

😂

[topaz topaz]

Honestly a sandbox escape malware challenge would be fun to look into, I'd love to be part of it as well, however the truth is it does delve into a side that I haven't frequently seen used in ethical ways and perhaps explains the hesitance from others

[hardy ibex]

There's also no shellcode invloved (or any memory address shit, BoF, heap overflow, .. ), which i think there would be if i'd be trying to escape any more serious sandbox such as V8 or anything

[sand trench]

well generally malware reverse engineering stuffs on tryhackme discord happens in the advanced channels

which requires you to have at least "proven" that you don't intended to abuse the knowledge

[hardy ibex]

#general message 🤷

[hardy ibex]

well ho do i prove it? 😄

i said, i can share the poc

my C skills kinda suck, so it's a mix of C and system() sh calls to set up the env

[native gulch]

hello!

[stiff egret]

sudo gonna be inlove with a bartender

[native gulch]

I’m trying to find servers that can find personal info about me, I don’t believe this server will provide or will even be able to show me the information, (this is for my YouTube channel)

[hardy ibex]

The main part is pretty much this

system("mkdir /tmp/chroot");
system("cd /tmp/chroot ; mkdir bin etc lib var home");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/; ln -s lib lib64");

system("cd /tmp/chroot/; cp /bin/bash bin");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/; cp /usr/bin/ls bin");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/; cp /usr/bin/cat bin");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/; cp /usr/bin/gcc bin");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/; cp /usr/bin/vim bin");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/; cp /usr/bin/strace bin");


system("cd /tmp/chroot/; mount --bind /proc /tmp/chroot/proc");


system("cd /tmp/chroot/ ; cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 lib");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/ ; cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.6 lib");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/ ; cp /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 lib");

system("cd /tmp/chroot/ ; cp /lib64/*.so.* lib");
system("cd /tmp/chroot/ ; cp /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/*.so.* lib");

I don't think i can provide anything else to try to prove that my intentions are not malicious 🤷

[sand trench]

oscp certification
or high level on tryhackme

^ read this

[hardy ibex]

i don't have any of that, but how about ~140 htb boxes?

[sand trench]

wellll

shadow is not the one able to let random people in

[hardy ibex]

I don't think i can provide anything else to try to prove that my intentions are not malicious
At the same time i don't think i would be asking such a question on discord if i was a real blackhat 😄

[hardy ibex]

what?

[sand trench]

see admins/moderators

they have the power to give people the oscp role or equivilance

[native gulch]

do any of you know how to hack so good you can provide me with my own personal information? (This is for my YouTube,)

[sand trench]

shadow is just a random user

[sand trench]

take your real life name
plug it into bing or google
go through the results
tada you just osinted yourself

[grizzled wing]

@rapid merlin got another joke

got a headache?
no problem with linux tmux Ctrl+B X

[hardy ibex]

Well i'm still looking for someone to discuss the topic if anyone is interested 🤷

[loud marlin]

@sand trench ml4w does not have vertical waybar options? right ?

[grizzled wing]

look out !
huh?

BOOOM!

[sand trench]

no clue as not looked into it since shadow swapped off it

[loud marlin]

fair

[serene shadow]

uhh hmm...the closest thing I can think of is https://haveibeenpwned.com/ but thats more of a anti hacking website...

[serene shadow]

lol

[sand trench]

also if that is the case maybe try on the hack the box discord server
as if you verify on there your knowledge might give you creds that make people trust you on there to help you

[serene shadow]

that happens quite often, actually

[grizzled wing]

i have hack || 127.0.0.1 || had lots of juicy details

[pliant onyx]

What if chat

One of my friends

By mistake

[grizzled wing]

what if

[pliant onyx]

replaced their /etc/hosts files

The contents of it i.e.

And would like the default contents

[sand trench]

https://haveibeenpwned.com/
https://pentester.com/

[pliant onyx]

Mind you it's one of my friends

[keen light]

has anyone run me_cleaner and if so did your computer brick itself.

[grizzled wing]

friends let friends hack them?

[serene shadow]

one of your friends, huh?

[pliant onyx]

v close frens

twins even

[grizzled wing]

me_cleaner; post shower

[stiff egret]

You want to use that to target someone else, we are not stupid

[pliant onyx]

I just want the contents of the default /etc/hosts file

[sand trench]

that file has nothing critical in it so the defaults should not even matter if it is empty

[pliant onyx]

phew, aright

I mean, he'll be happy to hear that

[serene shadow]

hmm...id get a linux boot disk, and just copy pasta...no idea if itd work though

[grizzled wing]

@native gulch do not DM people unless you ask

[native gulch]

sorry,

[sand trench]

think the default /etc/hosts is

127.0.0.1 localhost

# ipv6
::1 localhost
some multicast things here

or something like it

[pliant onyx]

yeah it's a shrimple little file and I don't wanna I mean I don't want him to have any lose ends

So just to make sure, I'll just replace this with the ctf's urls and ip

The command I ran was echo "$tip <nameofsite>.thm" > /etc/hosts

For some reason I thought this would add this line at the end of /etc/hosts

(Where %tip is exported target IP)

[wide summit]

becomeeee

dragooooooon

[sand trench]

it needs to be >> for it to add it at the end
only using > would overwrite the file as you noticed

also generally better practice to use a text editor like nano or vim to edit text files for configurations on linux

[whole gazelle]

dragons are sooo cool!!

[loud marlin]

> = Overwrite; >> = append to the end of file

[wide summit]

yea they are

im listening to a trivium song called "becoming the dragon"

[naive violet]

We do not do that here

[wide summit]

those were the lyrics

[amber quarry]

[whole gazelle]

imagine dragons!!!1

[grizzled wing]

they were imagined

[whole gazelle]

warriors by imagine dragons is such a banger 🔥

[azure plank]

Any proffesinal hacker dm me dawg

[grizzled wing]

haha

[loud marlin]

@boreal scarab idk wahts going on but i hate it

[silver sky]

@naive violet is very proffesional

[naive violet]

What's up?

[azure plank]

What can you do so i know if u can hack

[pliant onyx]

That's what I normally do, use nano, but this time I wanted to be fancy kek

[pliant onyx]

Gotcha 🫡
