You can drink beer, wine, or cider with a meal if you're accompanied by an adult.

You may be able to go to a pub if you're accompanied by an adult, but this depends on the premises.

Isn't there a country where the legal age is 13?

# near sapphire i actually dont know what this code does, how does it give a root shell
Yes, the command sequence sudo nano^R^X reset; sh 1>&0 2>&0 can indeed lead to a privilege escalation under certain circumstances. Here's a breakdown:

sudo nano:
This starts the nano text editor with root privileges. If the user is authorized to run nano with sudo, they effectively have elevated permissions within the nano environment.
^R^X:
These are keystroke combinations within nano.
^R (Ctrl+R) initiates the "Read File" function.
^X (Ctrl+X) after the reset command, will close out of nano.
reset; sh 1>&0 2>&0:
This is where the vulnerability lies. When nano prompts for a file to read, this command sequence is entered.
reset: this command will reset the terminal.
sh 1>&0 2>&0: This part attempts to spawn a shell (sh). The 1>&0 2>&0 redirects standard output and standard error to standard input. This is done to help keep the shell working correctly within the context of the nano subshell.
Because nano is running with sudo privileges, the shell spawned by this command also inherits those elevated privileges.
Why this is a problem:

Normally, a user might not have root shell access. However, by exploiting nano's file reading functionality, they can bypass those restrictions.
This is a classic example of how seemingly harmless programs can be abused for privilege escalation if they are run with elevated permissions.
GTFObins is a very good resource for finding these types of exploits.
Key takeaways:

This vulnerability highlights the importance of carefully configuring sudo permissions.
It emphasizes the need to be aware of how programs handle user input, especially when those programs are running with elevated privileges.
In essence, if a user can execute sudo nano, they might be able to use this sequence to gain a root shell.

Bad advice. VBox and VMWare are in the same space, there's no reason to swap if that's the hypervisor they are more comfortable with

Mikael, if you don't have error logs to post it's impossible to know what is going wrong

I don't think it's error log related, I think it's just VBox telling them for some reason it's slow.

I have freshly installed the windows now let me first download the virtual box and install and also add the extension

Then can any one suggest which logs i should look for ?

Not an emotional guy at all. There must be something in the air today lol.

I want to do something with security, since everyone wants to do pentesting. Plus it pays more and more available jobs.

Long story: In the 60's, the prevalent programming number systems were decimal and octal — mainframes had 12, 18, 24 or 36 bits per byte, which is nicely divisible by 3 = log2(8).

The BCPL language used the syntax 8 1234 for octal numbers. When Ken Thompson created B from BCPL, he used the 0 prefix instead. This is great because ```

#

been a while since I've spoke in here

near sapphire
#

so i've been reading a bit and it seems that apt-get and apt does essentially the same thing?

chilly veldt
#

indeed

near sapphire
#

why the two different command then

chilly veldt
#

cause one just apts and the other gets

near sapphire
#

i read that apt is more user friendly but idt its that much diff with apt-get

rapid merlin
#

yeah, they are basically the same, apt is just shorter. Apt-get used to be the standard.

#

You should check out the TLDR man pages

rugged kayak
#

apt is newer and has better dependenci resolution and apt has search capabilities

rapid merlin
#

Great for having a command cheat sheet. They also have browser plugins and a program

rugged kayak
#

its just more modern apt-get at the end of the day

i didn't know the Terminator was into network traffic analysis

"We need to create traffic noise to test and simulate capture filters. We will use the "terminator" terminal instance to have a split-screen view in a single terminal. The "terminator" will help you craft and sniff packets using a single terminal interface. Now, run the terminator command and follow the instructions using the new terminal instance. "
