Yeah I haven’t seen that yeet, but it’s almost certainly using UTM like I am above

I’ve run qemu PowerPC MacOS 9.2.2 and early OS X before via emulation on x86 before, but it’s a bit more of a pain to get running on UTM

[grizzled wing]

uses some emulator , i didnt finish video

[sinful moon]

Yeah you should be able to get some semblance of a decent modern windows experience going then

[blazing granite]

[grizzled wing]

doesn't windows 11 need more space for all of that spying ?

[sinful moon]

Don’t make me bring up my 256GB virtual host lol

[sturdy pike]

I once used "Windows10 Shutup++" to the maximum settings

My windows crumbled like a cookie

[blazing granite]

I have only 112 among my 3 pcs 😂

[orchid pawn]

Imagine paying 13k in a mac and don’t have windows 🙄

[blazing granite]

why do you need windows?

[grizzled wing]

is the answer

[upper minnow]

So you can get some sunlight

[orchid pawn]

Because is for my job

There is some softwares that only work with windows

[blazing granite]

Also people who buy mac don't care about windows 😂

[orchid pawn]

I pay my mac with gambling,_,

[grizzled wing]

the benefit of windows in a VM is most malware wont run

[blazing granite]

Do you know why astronauts use Linux? Because you can't open windows in space 😉 😂

Hi. Do you have reliable sources to keep up to date with the current trends? I mostly read BeepingComputer, Krebs on Security and Dark Reading . Are these reliable? Would you suggest other (potentially better sources)?

[sinful moon]

Yeah those are great sources. Ars Technica and The Register also have good infosec news from time to time, but are more general tech focused sources

an RSS feed reader helps tons to aggerate these all in one place

Im thinking about dual booting kali linux and windows 10 on my low end laptop ( i7-3540 4GB RAM). do yall think its gonna work out? are there any cons for this?

also whats a good amount of storage for kali linux? i have a 236GB HDD

sorry if its not the right place to ask but idk where to

[upper minnow]

Dont do kali on bare metal, its unstable and gonna fuck up your pc

Only use it on vms

[ornate fable]

wdym with bare metal and vms

[upper minnow]

Virtual machine

Bare metal is when smth is directly on hardware, like dual booting

[ornate fable]

alr thanks ill look more into it

[near sapphire]

woahh cyberchef has darkmode now

[grizzled void]

i have kali as a vm on windows but i also dual boot it. I never had an issue

[carmine tinsel]

EX Virtual Machina

[wooden totem]

Type /veri a press suggested command

[kindred yew]

What's your purpose? Are planning to use Kali as your daily driver OS?

[kindred yew]

I have had worse experience with Manjaro.

[sturdy pike]

As @upper minnow said, don't do bare metal or dual boot for that matter, use a VM instead, it's better to break it in a virtual environment as you can fix it by snapshots, bare metal/dual boot doesn't have that.

[wooden totem]

Install virtual machine on kali and run virtualized kali

🧠

[grizzled void]

install kali on barebones and just take backups 🤷‍♂️

[upper minnow]

Or just do as im doing and manually install what you need on a non kali os, gives you some practice on linux

[grizzled void]

I too enjoy this route

[opaque flax]

Run a vm inside a vm inside a vm

[grizzled void]

I got kali vm with GOAD lab in it, I need to go one level deeper ig

[opaque flax]

I can only add repos and sudo apt install so much before im tired of it

[opaque flax]

I was looking into installing this. I may have a spare pc I could run it on

And have a lab environment

[grizzled void]

Yeah i want to move the GOAD environment onto one of my servers I got but I gotta rerack them 🙃 \

[opaque flax]

I have 2 old towers running as my servers

They do not have space for GOAD at the moment

[prime crest]

Anyone knows about black eye while I was learning it thers a issue pls help me someone

[grizzled void]

there are multiple goad labs, you could porbably setup one of the smaller ones

[opaque flax]

I’d like to redo my homelab which I think I can do soon

[prime crest]

Anyone knows about black eye while I was learning it thers a issue pls help me someone

[opaque flax]

What is black eye

My plan is to go from my 2 towers to 3 small computer like NUCs

[grizzled void]

also GOAD full takes less than 150 GB or something like that

I want some NUCs

[opaque flax]

I can fit 3 nucs into 1u

I want to get a tiny 10u rack

[prime crest]

Command not found issue someone pls help

[opaque flax]

3 nucs, 1 16 port switch, ups, patch panel, pdu, NAS

Compact and out of the way

Neat and clean

[prime crest]

. /blackeye.sh but it's telling command not found

[grizzled void]

is this related to a THM room?

[opaque flax]

Is blackeye.sh in the directory you’re in?

[prime crest]

Yes I guess should I screen share??

[opaque flax]

No

I’m not getting on vc

[prime crest]

Ok any help pls

[grizzled void]

what is end goal of this script?

[opaque flax]

Is it for a thm room)

[mellow gull]

We do not have a room for blackeye

It's a phishing framework

[grizzled void]

ah, in that case it's either homework related or malicious therefore I will not help

[opaque flax]

[grizzled void]

[ornate fable]

i just want to experience it, and maybe learn

[opaque flax]

[ornate fable]

i looked up some tut on installing kali on a vm and most of them are on VMware. Is it a good option ?

[grizzled void]

vmware workstation pro is nice and now has free license

[mellow gull]

As others have said dual-booting/bare metaling Kali is ill advised if you're not already experienced with snapshots and backups.

VMware is entirely suitable, yes.

[grizzled void]

i also use virtualbox

[mellow gull]

^ I typically use VB just because it's what I'm familiar with.

[ornate fable]

im currently waiting for kali to install

takes a whole day

[grizzled void]

I have more experience using VB but recently I took a network forensics class and they had us use VMware workstation pro, I like both but the VMware workstation pro interface is lil nicer imo

[mellow gull]

Luckily they're both relatively straightforward.

I despise trying to set up internal networks in VMware though.

[sturdy pike]

Just use WSL /s

[upper minnow]

God i love insomnia

Its not like i wanted to be productive today

Jiafei hiii

[carmine tinsel]

my sleep schedule is also fucked lol

for anyone who’s on portswigger is using burp necessary for some of the labs

[cloud quiver]

For majority is 🙂

I mean that's the whole point of that academy

[carmine tinsel]

lmaooo ive been rawdogging the sqli labs so far by just putting payloads in my url bar 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[upper knoll]

Some will for sure block that

[cloud quiver]

That's possible w/out burp but i think it would be easier with burp because of the repeater 🙂

[carmine tinsel]

yea the lab im on definitely is blocking it lol

[upper minnow]

I should try doing portswiggers stuff

I wonder if i can do it w caido

[carmine tinsel]

oh well time to finally use the kali vm I have that’s been collecting dust

[upper knoll]

Almost certainly

[open lake]

[cloud quiver]

I would definitely recommend it 🙂

[carmine tinsel]

it’s very helpful

it’s more in depth than some thm rooms imo

[sturdy pike]

I should try portswigger but I don't know where to start

[upper knoll]

Just pick somewhere

Research what you don’t know and take good notes!

[carmine tinsel]

whatever you’re struggling with on thm do that

[sturdy pike]

Thanks, you both! I'll start today

[rapid merlin]

you can use the shutdown option within the VM

Hi guys Im new here and interested in cybersecurity. I have a question. Penetration testing seems interesting to me but Im hesitant Is it a good choice for a junior cybersecurity professional?

[sturdy pike]

This seems small, do you go to fill water again and again and use it as an excuse for time pass? 😆 /s

[lament tendon]

Since you will gather a lot of experience for all sorts of technology. I'd say it's a neat thing to learn.

Ultimately, when starting out, you should look into all sorts of different things tho, and then stick to the one you have the most fun with.

[mellow gull]

ProtonDB will launch Fields of Mistria, it just needs to be relaunched every so often cause of memory issues (in my experience)

[pliant cairn]

Hey hey

[near sapphire]

do you guys think its better to go all in on one field in security or try a little bit of everything

[willow quartz]

you need to know a little bit of everything

as well as know a ton in one area

otherwise you just know a bunch of nothing, as your not fully knowledgable in a specific area

imo

[olive sable]

Indeed, going through the fundamentals will help ease the pavement along the security route

If you're having a hard time on where to start you could just find roadmaps

[eternal timber]

Me trying to learn everything interesting

[olive sable]

That's one way to ball in the field

[willow quartz]

I mean you sure could, just gotta be really invested

[olive sable]

WHEEZE

[near sapphire]

im finding a hard time choosing which one i want to focus on lol

everything seems so interesting

[willow quartz]

try all of them and see what attracts you the most, because trust me, once you find which one you love the most it's going to be fun and wayyy easier than anticipated

Just make sure you get a good taste of all of them

otherwise you can't make the decision

[eternal timber]

Nah, too much information in the world

[pliant cairn]

In real life scenarios, we dont just have one application. There will be apps, dbs, networking layers and cloud and logging soc and so many layers. You never stop learning in cybersec

[willow quartz]

oh, yeah in the world xd

[willow quartz]

Thought you meant in cyber sec

xD

[eternal timber]

Wouldn’t be able to learn everything I find interesting given a few more lifetimes lol

[thorn scaffold]

just saw a tweet of someone who tried to change the password on some site but got the error message that the new password should not be similar to the previous one. does that mean that they do not hash/encrypt the passwords in db?

[thorn scaffold]

or is the hash of the new password similar to the hash of the old one?

[mellow gull]

There's a large amount of methods that a web service can choose to use to compare your new password against an old password.

[orchid pawn]

Clean

Mine is from jojo

[thorn scaffold]

that kinda defeats the purpose of hashing then doesnt it?

[silver sky]

Well no, it's based on the hash

If the website's doing the job properly and isn't storing it in plain text

[rapid merlin]

$ echo thisisthebestpassword | john -stdin -stdout -extern:Leet 2> /dev/null | sort -R | head -1

7h1$!s7h38e5tpassword

[void jacinth]

Hi does anyone have idea if a web server have only have path traversal vulnerability how to take advantage of to execute a command

[mellow gull]

A website can do something called dynamic hash comparison. Basically, it takes the theoretical hash of the password that you've entered (the new one) and creates a bunch of near-alternatives and compares that against the stored hash of your old password. If it gets a match, then it'll tell you that it isn't sufficiently unique.

That's just one method that doesn't "defeat the purpose of hashing."

[rapid merlin]

argon2id all the things, with a random salt each time

[thorn scaffold]

so kinda bruteforcing in order to find the similar (old) one

[rapid merlin]

rainbow tables?

[mellow gull]

Huh? I mean I guess if you wanted to compare it to any method that wouldn't be too far from the case. If you don't use salting, any input will produce the same result in its associated hashing method so long as the content is the same.

Some web services will keep an internal registry of what salts are attached to what accounts and apply that to comparison methods, but that's just getting pedantic from the PoC.

[rapid merlin]

I wonder how many people test the timing of the parameters (rounds) of a KDF, based on latest hardware

key stretching etc.

[grizzled wing]

i got to season 3 episode 9 of Mr Robot, i am losing interest in the show. there is so little hacking, scenes and scenes of talking about previous conversations i am bored

[rapid merlin]

Is that the one with Rami Malek?

[grizzled wing]

yes

the show is hyped

[rapid merlin]

Ive never watched it but I’ll keep that in mind if I do.

[grizzled wing]

Elliot just said Darlene could get into the FBI building, 🙄

[cloud quiver]

You're right , that show is so over-rated in the community

[kindred yew]

Finally donw with File Inclusion

[cloud quiver]

Great job @kindred yew , congrats 🙂 🚀

[sturdy pike]

Don't mind me, I like longer paced shows, I'd suggest you TWD but you'd most probably drop it halfway lol.

[kindred yew]

Absouletly loved the challenges part.

[grizzled wing]

so far the scenes of any hacking are 30 seconds long, mostly ssh commands

[sturdy pike]

I strive for challenges lol, good stuff!

[grizzled wing]

i like longer shows if the payoff is worth it and Mr Robot is not giving me a payoff

[rapid merlin]

I was a really like Person of Interest when it was on. It was one of my first memories of hacking on TV.

it is hard to find good hacker films/series when a lot is reviewed by people who view it based on a stereotype

[sick lance]

Just depends if you like your shows realistic or not.

[grizzled wing]

fun fact, so many films and tv have hacking but its never framed as such, social engineering happens all the time in tv

[rapid merlin]

And why do hackers get a bad rep in the media, most hackers I know are chill.

[sturdy pike]

If I had to compare it to something, I'd say moon knight, hacking feels more like a side point there before it all starts going haywire. I just watched it for the mystery and what happened at the end.

[rapid merlin]

They make these big block buster spectacles out of it but then condemn it IRL

[grizzled wing]

Matlack show has hacking methodology in it

[sick lance]

You don't hear the good stories?

Only the stories that are Hacker == bad.

[kindred yew]

Can anyone recommend some hacker movies/tv shows/anime?

[grizzled wing]

War Games is original

[rapid merlin]

I watched Ghost in the Shell from 1995 the other day

Just vote to reset, or the machine will revert back to stock when the game is over.

[errant delta]

• members in the KoTH wont reset, probs afk

[rapid merlin]

Anyone had issues with burp on kali? Like the browser not working?

[sick lance]

Nah, never had issues.

[sand trench]

well consider it as loss or a win and then move on

also good lesson to learn when editing sudoers file

Staff don't work the weekend, and when they eventually see the email, the game will be long gone.

why do people join a KoTH if they are going afk

Dang. For me it says the browser cannot be opened at this time. I can use it by changing the proxy manually in browser but ugh.

[sick lance]

Are you opening the proxy on firefox, or the chromuim browser?

[rapid merlin]

FF

[sick lance]

Are you running burp as root?

That might be it.

I’ll try it.

you don't have the wordlist file downloaded at that specific location

maybe in Downloads

yup it's at /usr/share/seclists/

sudo updatedb

https://tenor.com/view/cute-cat-smiling-kitten-kawaii-gif-2742547656233150604

[sick lance]

Not at all.

locate wordlist.txt will find it without the db being updated.

[boreal scarab]

Is it cached by default in Kali?

[sick lance]

You do know that update runs automatically as a cron?

The only time you really need to use sudo updatedb is when you first install locate

[boreal scarab]

I've used Kali so much and it's never been able to locate anything unless I update the db

You have instructions how to do so

You can start machine in Task 3 by pressing green Start machine button

But not the attack box ip at the top of the split screen. YES thank you, got confused there, Start attack box, and I could swear I did not have to hit start machine in the other rooms I've done, it was already there --or rather already started I guess in the other rooms---confusing.

Thank. you

What happens when you go -T5 on nmap?
Does your system starts running away from you? /s

[opaque flax]

Yes exactly this

It grows legs and runs

It definitely doesn’t scan the target faster

[jolly iron]

I use -T5

[sturdy pike]

So it's steroids mode?! Damn

[sturdy pike]

Crazy, are you the system talking?

[opaque flax]

I find -T 4 to be reliable

[jolly iron]

is the Flash mode 🤣

[opaque flax]

T 5 can cause packet transmission issues

[sick lance]

And miss ports.

[sturdy pike]

Oh, I thought about packet loss but not missing ports

that's new

[full agate]

Guys, I am encountering an error while connecting to OpenVPN. I imported the file into OpenVPN and connected, but TryHackMe is still showing that I haven't connected to the network.

[jolly iron]

So what T is good to use T3 or T4?

[opaque flax]

Can you ping 10.10.10.10

[opaque flax]

See above

[sturdy pike]

Yeah even in the website it's mentioned till T4 is better, T5 causes packet drops, a lot.

[full agate]

yes i can do that the server is up

[eager marsh]

Insert joke about Attackbox being slow

[sturdy pike]

I have a feeling if you try it on Google, it might block you on T3 but on T2 it's okay.

[full agate]

let me check

[pliant onyx]

I have to study Laravel for a potential client

Their .env got leaked somehow and someone took advantage of it

[mint palm]

You can also try —min-rate

[pliant onyx]

You may experiment

Sometimes even the default works

[full agate]

the problem i tried with parrotOS via virtual box and windows still the network not connecting

[sturdy pike]

Yeah, attackboxes don't have network.

[topaz topaz]

Have you guys had any experience with ParrotOS? I've never tried it personally, how different is the experience from kali?

[sturdy pike]

Oh

Nevermind

[opaque flax]

The. You are connected to the network

[cloud quiver]

You can't go wrong with either

[full agate]

but the openvpn for hackthebox is working well.. i have rised a ticket to tryhackme support team

[topaz topaz]

I see! Does the attackbox use either of those or is it its own thing?

[cloud quiver]

It uses Ubuntu

There's also Kali machine on THM

[topaz topaz]

Wow, yeah I just noticed there's an attackbox explained page

I'm surprised THM hasn't released an .iso of their attackbox without the network restrictions

It looks really pretty and easy to use

[jolly iron]

Kali Linux formerlyy know as Back Track?

[cloud quiver]

Yes

[topaz topaz]

I remember a colleague of mine reminiscing about going to high school and messing around with an OS named backtrack, I hadn't heard of it before that day (dude's 40)

So I looked it up and the logo was the same as kali and I was like 'dude that's today's kali'

Such a cool OS

[full agate]

yes i connected the openvpn network but in tryhackme page it shows im not yet connected
https://tryhackme.com/access

[cloud quiver]

It was renamed in 2012-13-14 😄

[sturdy pike]

Which platform used ParrotOS?

[fiery imp]

hello people

[topaz topaz]

Don't count on the access page, go to 10.10.10.10

[jolly iron]

I believe HTB uses ParrotOs

[opaque flax]

That’s fine the page is glitched

If you can ping 10.10.10.10 you are connected

Unless you have a 10.10.10.10 on your home network

[full agate]

yeah i think so.. i can view the page on 10.10.10.10
let me try to join an room and start

[sturdy pike]

Ah damn, I forgot, one hour per day

[topaz topaz]

does that page also show you your IP? If it does you're good

[full agate]

yes

[opaque flax]

Yes you’re connected to the thm network

Ignore the page

[jolly iron]

one hour life time 🤣

[opaque flax]

That says you aren’t connected

[full agate]

yes it is showing "If you can see this page, you're connected to TryHackMe"

[topaz topaz]

then you're good

[sturdy pike]

I know right,, I'm glad I didn't go there, THM is doing just great lmao

[full agate]
