How in-depth does the active directory rooms go in?

BurpSuite is one of the leading tools in web app pentesting

But if I know there's a vuln or I'm retesting I automate

I was testing web vulns for D++ stateless bots last month

languid delta

Who's good with php here

knotty valve

Found a few issues without burpe

dark mason
knotty valve
#

It was all stuff burp wouldn't detect

knotty valve
dark mason
knotty valve
#

Manually not auto

dark mason
knotty valve
dark mason
#

Checking != detecting

#

Detecting means automatically

knotty valve
#

A detective isn't automatic

#

But they still are capable of detecting evidence in a crime scene

#

You can detect post exploitation by manually going through server logs

#

Cause you're finding evidence regardless of autonomy

dark mason
#

Fair

#

I get your point

#

I still don't understand why you don't think burp is useful though

#

You still gotta walk me through that

knotty valve
#

not saying it isn't useful

#

I just don't use it cause it doesn't suit my workflow

dark mason
#

Then why are you telling people to not "bother" with it

knotty valve
#

Yeah I can run it headless, but it lacks the integration to my workflow

knotty valve
knotty valve
dark mason
#

OHHHH

knotty valve
#

Lmfao

dark mason
#

I am so stupid sometimes

knotty valve
#

Nah I get that

dark mason
#

Mb

knotty valve
#

It happens

#

Most of my workflow is designed around how I operate so some tools don't fit my needs

#

Burp being one of them

dark mason
#

Vulnerabilities don't just "show up" in burp

knotty valve
#

A lot of the time I deploy a rogue DNS to bypass HSTS or test HSTS Configs, finding how a server responds adjacent attacks or overflowed or corrupted traffic, etc

#

Yep

#

Know your methods

#

Don't blindly trust an AI

#

There's no such thing as an AI with 100% accuracy

dark mason
#

Know to do manual explanation is way more useful now

#

If burp ai could do everything we would have been out of business a long time ago

dark mason
knotty valve
#

One of the vulns I've found and confirmed during a code review happened to be with a buffer overflow in headers

The infamous aaaaaaa attack

how accurate is tryhackme's soc analyst training compared to the real job?

knotty valve

Automatic can also be false positives

That’s better than breaking the system lol

Also, reason i don't get rid of old devices is cause the data needs to be wiped

How to make a CPU from scratch (any% speedrun glitchless):

  1. Get a rock.
  2. Smash the rock.
  3. Now you have 98% concentrated silicon dioxide. Purify it to 99.9% pure silicon dioxide.
  4. Purify it further to 99.9999999% polysilicon metal.
  5. Put the polysilicon ingots into a crucible.
  6. Heat the silicon ingots to 1698 °K.

To be fair Taiwan a good bit more, leading to… lol nevermind

is this legit?

lol @Grok is this true?!?

Yes we don’t have enough context to see why not

I don’t have another example in front of me to compare sizes but it’s a legit Windows file name

knotty valve
#

Also chat, I was a dumbass today 😂

#

I forgot I was hosting my work's internal CTF

#

So that explains why no one was in office, they were at the other facility kekw

sinful moon
#

It’s alright, I was a dumbass yesterday and called my insurance company about the full name of the acronym they go by because I had no idea

knotty valve
#

Lmfao

#

I've done that before

sinful moon
#

I’m not a Government Employee what gives… oh that’s what GEICO used to stand for

knotty valve
vapid slate
#

oky thanks

knotty valve
#

If you're ever in doubt: google + virustotal

#

You'll get a faster response

#

And usually a more accurate one, since MS tend to have extensive docs on Windows

sinful moon
#

love that my EDR at work gives VirusTotal links, for sure helps with additional context but indeed, not the be all/end all either

#

lol nothing you said was flawed, I was just expanding on the VirusTotal bit

knotty valve
#

Our EDR gives us a stupidly long report

#

That could literally have just been 2 pages

sinful moon
#

yeah our old honestly traditional AV gave us basically only proprietary awful “vendor malware names” and I had to figure it out from there

knotty valve
#

No, we don't need you to tell use what RCE is SilvervaleSuffer and how it goes against our threat matrix

sinful moon
#

lol so I was glad I helped move us to this new system

knotty valve
#

Cause we know this already

#

We don't need a dictionary with graphs, pls thank you

sinful moon
#

lol totally fair, mine isn’t so bad with that, since it’s broken down in the Web UI

knotty valve
#

Like I appreciate that they go as far as pulling third party IOCs and everything

sinful moon
#

yeah like ours lists every single file action taken and similar, but you actually have to dig into the detection somewhat to see it

knotty valve
#

But for the love of god we don't need a definition of what the exploits are

#

We can just hit up OWASP or NIST for that

knotty valve
sinful moon
#

eh I do at least appreciate seeing the CWEs and similar next to the reasons the model caught the specific process for

knotty valve
#

Yeah we get those, but at the same time

#

We basically get the entire OWASP definition of what the CWE is

#

Like just link it my guy

sinful moon
#

ouch lol

sinful moon
#

yeah for real

knotty valve
#

I don't need my report that verbose lmao

#

Always funny when the jr. is telling off a Snr. for how they're doing things wrong 😂

sinful moon
#

although I can’t tell you how many times one single user’s old games had False Positives because his win 98 era games were doing weird things with code lol

#

head of a client’s company so can’t complain lol

knotty valve
#

This has given me the idea to just send a dictionary with every report

Just to annoy them

#

You in SOC trenches or…?

knotty valve
#

Security Engineering

#

So yesnt

#

I don't work directly with our SOC team but I do overlap since I'm a part of the appsec team rn

sinful moon
#

Yeah basically same for me, I’m just at a small enough company that I am largely the security team, but yeah we outsource our SOC

knotty valve
#

I'm also an intern with the company so I'm not neck deep in the trenches

sinful moon
#

Still awesome!

knotty valve

But I do have to deal with things that go wrong 😂

sinful moon

Yeah for sure

@sinful moon 👋 how are you?

knotty valve
#

Users are always the issue

sinful moon
#

indeed, theyre desperate to launch these shady files

sinful moon
knotty valve
#

Security in a nutshell:
"How'd you get the malware"
"I don't know"
"Did you click on anything?"
"No"
"Did you download anything?"
"Yeah a (game/software) from (some sketchy site)"
*sigh*

sinful moon
#

iirc TrickBot and QBot is one I ran into most often

blazing granite
#

Still stuck in Argentina, but I can't complain 😂

sinful moon
#

indeed

knotty valve
sinful moon
#

god I love these insane threat actors names

knotty valve
#

Ikr

sinful moon
#

just gotta throw those darts at the board and see what sticks

knotty valve
#

There's nothing that can change my mind, but ILOVEU and WannaCry have the best names imho

sinful moon
#

Well to be fair, they had definitive reasons to be named as such due to the code or purpose

knotty valve
#

Methodology wise, and operations wise, Stuxnet is still my favourite malware

sinful moon
#

Yeah it is indeed wild

knotty valve
#

I'm pretty sure I have one of the strains of it in a zip file

#

Tho it could also be conficker

sinful moon
#

lol

knotty valve
#

There's too many malwares on my testing PC

sinful moon
#

Although I should say, going much further in malware research chat may lead a mod to remind you of the existence of #advanced-general

#

But I love hearing about it indeed

knotty valve
#

Yeah I gotta reach the right level tho lmao

sinful moon
#

you unlock that channel for beating certain networks or reaching the former top level

#

yee

knotty valve
#

I should be able to hit whatever the level is by Friday anyway

sinful moon
#

Nice nice, yeah honestly it doesn’t take terribly long to just reach the old max

knotty valve
#

Considering I jumped from 0x4 to 0x6 in twoish hours

#

And that was doing easy rooms

#

It's not that hard to level up

sinful moon
#

heh yeah, still is has a somewhat log scale as RPGs do and such

knotty valve
#

Yea

sinful moon
#

anyways nice to hear someone else at in the MSP trenches at least, it’s not easy but sure is great experience

knotty valve
#

We deal specifically with satcom stuff for consumer and private so it's another trench of pain lmao

blazing granite
sinful moon
#

While security and sysadmin is my main focus, I setup a Linux server that just decides which mobile devices can cast to what TVs at a hotel today

knotty valve
#

Nice

sinful moon
#

As with everyone I still have a lot to learn, and that’s a never ending goal with infosec

#

Just so happens though… I love learning. lol

knotty valve
#

I have two loves when it comes to work:
Making systems that are a pain to break into or are unnecessarily complex
And, breaking stuff

#

I'm hoping to move into red team, professionally, over the next year or so

sinful moon
#

lol indeed, typically mutually exclusive there but not always lol

knotty valve
#

Yea knowing both is great

sinful moon
#

Honestly I’m thinking of this Linux Sysadmin job, but that is, if i ever finally update my resume

knotty valve
#

I gotta update my resume eventually

sinful moon
#

I love infosec to death, but I sure don’t mind sysadmin/devops either

knotty valve
#

I don't mind software dev tbh

#

It's always fun building weird and wonderful stuff that honestly just makes no sense outside of some niche usecase

#

I will say, I haven't used CTFd in ages lmao
I hope the infra doesn't die halfway through our CTF

sinful moon
#

eh it’s being overly generous calling a lot of dev ops as programming, but fair I’m basically only doing the… basics at this org. I have had “I need three web servers quick, just make something”, but as like today “we have this docker solution from a vendor we need to deploy and test

#

lol I hope I don’t piss anyone off who does more with this than me tho, because respect

knotty valve
#

Gods I had docker sometimes ngl

sinful moon
#

how do you mean?

knotty valve
#

Like I get that it's supposed to be a quick and easy deployment solution for isolated applications

#

But sometimes the setting up of the docker itself has just been pain

#

Especially with networking side of things

sinful moon
#

eh I just kinda grok it since it’s similar to what VMs are doing and I have decades of personal experience there

#

but yea totally fair

#

also lol I didn’t realize how Elon tainted that word I like to use

#

I just “understand it”

knotty valve
#

Lol

#

I prefer stuff like firejail personally, never had an issue with deploying those

sinful moon
#

totally fair

knotty valve
#

In the end it's all just isolated environments but yeah

sinful moon
#

I love FreeBSD but have less experience with the jails

knotty valve
#

I despise whatever isolation Flatpak uses

#

There's times where setting up shared folders is just cursed beyond belief

sinful moon
#

yeah no those all are cursed in my opinion although fair whatever Steam Deck uses is half decent

knotty valve
#

I think it uses whatever is used in proton

sinful moon
#

Just been an Arch user for quite some time and usually use an AUR package that just unpacks tose naturally

#

nah I mean for Linux native apps

#

since Steam Deck is non-permeable root filesystem

knotty valve
#

Ahh

sinful moon
#

that’s so not the right word for it but same difference lol

knotty valve
#

Yeah idk what they use for that

It should be no different to what you can deploy with fedora silverblue I believe, I haven't used immutables all that often

#

So idk much about how they work under the hood

sinful moon
#

This is just Arch on KDE with the Discover Store but you are right in that it’s similar to Silverblue

#

Basically have to go into “developer mode” for lol “mutable” file system, and yeah most likely your chages will be wiped out by the next update. But ~ and an increasing amount of /etc files are immune
