hi can i ask for some help on room ZTH: Obscure Web Vulns / [Section 4 - XXE]: Challenge i tried putting the xxe code example in the request and tryied whit xxe examples from https://github.com/swisskyrepo/PayloadsAllTheThings/tree/master/XXE Injection also but i getnothing in burpsuite only reply with "sorry, abc is already registered" any suggestions are appreciated
found it nvm
need a nudge for lazyadmin
Sure. Where are you stuck?
nmap scan shows port 80 and ssh, i gobuster'd port 80 but no intersting finds
Gobuster should show something interesting. Which wordlist did you use?
raft-large-words
use the rockyou wordlist
No, rockyou please. Its not for web dir bust.
was about to say that
ups
It'll show something interesting, I'm sure. π
been switching to raft lately tbh and it was decent
but some rooms depend on the classic one probably
oh gotcha
ty
actually
raft showd that directory
but i have a bad habit of grep'ing for 200 in my gobuster results
Sometimes medium list can't find anything so I try to stick with large one.
Anyone got any idea why is not going through
@onyx atlas it doesn't ask for the command but just for the variable
Yes, Thank you
hey hi guys i need a help in https://tryhackme.com/room/postexploit
i have completed all , except this
it is between the users
can i PM u to avoid spoilers @white salmon
yes
recovery nudge pls
Hi all - May I ask for some assistance please? I'm a bit stuck on one of the Vulnuniversity questions
Ask your question
I've been following step by step, also looked at some videos - however I can not seem to get intruder query to accept any of the file types in this question
How are you determining accept/reject?
Send screenshot of your burp intruder request
In DM Termack?
Here
How are you determining accept/reject?
Sorry ninja - It's good question - as the subject doesnt actrually tell you where to look - I've gone by this
Apologies I'm going to be dumb here - what and where sorry π¦
There's a setting for intruder
For URL encoding specific characters
If it's on, turn it off
If it's off, turn it on
Yea that one
wow... saying I feel stupid is an understatement - that makes sense too π¦
Thanks a bunch Ninja - much appreciated. I was pulling my hair out
hi can i ask a hint for room zthweb2 last task 11 ,i tried to fuzz different parameters with no luck
any suggestions are appreciated
found it nvm
I was completing shodan room, but couldn't solve Task 4 number 5 question, top operating system. Any other way to solve this question? Also, hint wasn't that helpful for me.
Okay, I just solved it. No worries!
hi, i am trying the motunui room and i have wrote a script to bruteforce. But it's running for 2 hours now. Can somone tell me if i am wasting time or not? (the script is based on curl and rockyou.txt wordlist). If i am not clear enought tell me (sorry for the bad eng)
btw i am sure at 80% the script is right, cause i have made some testing before running it
Any brute force on tryhackme will take 5 minutes or less.
I can't as I haven't done the box
Hi all, can someone assist with the crypto1a || layouts ||aspect, I tried to think using crypto mindset and out of the box mindset but still stuck, ||I tried all I have single and thrice as indicated in lowercase||. Thx
What room?
Rip ok there's not so many people that can help there
I see that @proven bridge has finished it. If you are around π
Waiting some help going back to it
@white salmon
Someone can tell me one hint to Psycho Break, task 2, question 2 ?
No, because that's a brand new room
Humm
Please wait 72 hours after release
Okay, Thx π
either I've drank too much or something seems odd. working on blaster
If it's the history, check the pins in #room-help for the CVE
run nmap, see a number of ports open. answer is NOT what I found with an -sT scna
it's lower than what I get with the sT scan
second, nav to the IP address in my browser and only getting the IIS landing page
there is no other port that has web service running (NMAP to check)
Yeah so 1. Windows is weird with open port numbers
- What about directory bruteforcing?
k
one of the questions is asking the name of the main web page, though
there isn't one
wait
hang on
LOLZ
never mind
k, off to user a bigger wordlist and lick my wounds for my stupid web title page question
so why is Windows weird on open port numbers? I've not heard that before
It just isβ’οΈ
Hello, i have been solving Psycho Break room and got stuck on Safeheaven, there are 4 images i did extensive stego upto my knowledge and check src files in source too only i got this on page source Search through me and find it. But i am not able to move forward. Any hints are highly appreciated
Its a new room, so no hints or help is allowed till 72 hours passes.

Hello, i don't understand this sentence "Split by comma and get the last element in the split"

and then the last thing in the split will be the flag
Hey guys, I need a hint for the ccpentesting room. Anyone mind being DM'ed?
You can ask here someone will respond, anyways you can dm me:)
So I'm stuck at task 24 of the ccpentesting room. I've done the directory scan and found the secret directory but the files I find are forbidden files like .htaccess and .htpasswd, plus an empty index.html file. Are these the ones or there are others to find? Which wordlists would be best to use in this case to find them?
Any standard wordlist would have found that directory.....you can try
/usr/share/wordlist/dirbuster/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt
@shut lion
hello guys
i'm doing the owasp top 10
and i am trying to do the extra challenge of day 3
i found the email
and i got this
Hi,
Signups for the beta test of the senseandsensitivity program are now closed -- thank you to everyone who applied.
This also means that the subcode has unfortunately already been claimed.
does this mean that there is no more extra challenge
or should i try harder
You can't get the code anymore.
Room XSS Playgound, task 8, #4: Why does the following answer works, but yields no flag? ||<img src="abc" onmouseover=alert(String.fromCharCode(72,101,108,108,111))>||
No hints or helped allow for new rooms till 72 hours passes.
Hello in XSS playground room task5 i got document cookie with alert also i changed background but i didnt get any flag should i do something different or its bugged any hint?
Try and look at inspect element
tbh i dont know what i did different but i got flag at the first one
still can not get flag at the 2nd one im giving img src, and hover event i can change background colour to red
dont ask such things ,this is something which requires a concent letter and other formalities,one cant simply go to any sites and just attempt even if it is your own
in this channel only questions about tryhackme rooms. Try #general
@white salmon its trykhackme room as i said at the top
Wasn't directed at you
oh sorry then
it was for the person who just deleted his msg @fathom mortar
I am looking at room - Psycho Break - And i am currently stuck at decoding a piece of text to get the key to map , can anyone drop a hint which decoding method used.... I tried most of them - base64,rot13 rot 11 etc
Never mind got it
@tepid solar Please wait 3 days after release before asking for help
hey hi team , i have rooted , JACK now , but i am confused y the information is not available in the perfect file https://tryhackme.com/room/jack
easy root , i have not faced an issue like this
please ping me
In the.... Perfect file?
You can use the spoiler tags if you are worried about revealing answers
OH
okay
for the ||cronjob , i will check for the /etc/crontab , but here there is nothing shows in that but after running the PSPY i have came to know thereis an cronjob running|| @stuck fractal
Yes
is this any BUG ?
||System wide crontab is separate from individual users' crontabs. It's a security feature, not a bug. Root had their own private crontab.||
Not a bug.
I am feeling really stupid and having trouble clearing Learn Linux room
#room-hints is here for people who want a "pointer" towards the room they are completing, and not necessarily a spoiler. As such, when asking a question, be sure to include:
- What room you are on
- At what stage are you stuck exactly? Enumerating? Exploiting? Priv esc?
- What techniques / tools have you tried so far? Just so that we know how to hint you in the right direction without repeating what you've already done
Thanks
I am at the last task trying to get the flag, I have tried chmods greps and finds for anything that looks like root, and tried creating links to the file I need to get to.
Oh
The flow of the room was to get the pw for the next user, so I was assuming the PW was in root.txt. Thanks.
The flag is in root.txt, which is what you need to put in to TryHackMe
Gotcha, now I feel dumber lol
Don't beat yourself up over it
Thank you!
I got it thanks guys! (although not sure why the pw was in that file to begin with other than for learning purposes) haha
i got question
What term can we use to look for login pages?
google dorking btw
tried inline, inurl attributes, none seems to work
We usually don't help on research-based rooms
Did the session just die randomly?
I am working on the metasploit room, and the steps say to run the commands sessions and jobs. Does that screenshot show the exploit works?
No it timed out, but I was trying to run the sessions and jobs command while it was running, but couldnt figure out what to do next (tried opening a new terminal and a new msfconsole but nothing was in sessions or jobs)
If you type exploit -j it will run as a job but it will become a session when you get a connection, does that make sense?
And it says the session died so there will not be a session as it died.
Oh run -j
the meterpreter > prompt means the session was opened correctly. You are able to type commands
Nice
So running the exploit command, I wouldn't be able to see jobs and sessions as they are run though
Hey guys, Im new at this
And I've been stoped for almost 2 hours with and "easy" question
Can you give me a hint? hehe
From the info you've given us? definitely not
I was just asking if any one was here to help me xd
The worst of it
is that is not a CFT or something
There are always people here, but you gotta directly ask your question
Okay, sorry
As long as it's a room on TryHackMe
Is a question in a Section of the CC: Pen Testing
If i dont have to ask that here i'll leave it xD
Just ask!
It?
I mean I read all the options of the payload, of the module
And I cant find it
Or maybe I just dont understand the question
What option sets the payload to be sent to the target machine?
Something like EternalBlue is an exploit, it delivers a payload
There's an option to set what payload you deliver
It's a research question TBH
Do some googling
metasploit how to set payload
easy
It's literally "what option do you use to set the payload"
Okay im dumb, I was searching in the options of the pΓ yload
Sorry, Im not english and there are some things that I can missunderstood
Thanks James! And sorry for wasting your time
use google translate if you need to
It's not a waste of time if you learned something
Forgive me for being a mess, I always complicate my life unnecessarily. I got it now
Hello. New to this. I am working on Blue/Task 3 Escalate/Step #4 Run!
I continue to get a Post failed error. I have re-worked the room to this point and continue to get the same error.
I have read through many of the walkthrough guides and none address this. Thank you for any/all assistance!
@pine vale You already had a meterpreter
You cannot convert a meterpreter into a meterpreter
Hmmm. Thanks. I guess the status was not clear to me.
msf has changed the default shell for that exploit since the room came out
When I first saw meterpreter > I was confused. pwd showed C:\Windows\system32, so I thought I was on track. But if Task 2 gets you there, then what is the aim of Task 3?
msf has changed the default shell for that exploit since the room came out
@final mortar
It used to give you a standard shell, it now gives you a meterpreter
Ah. So the Task steps are out of synch with msf? That makes sense. I appreciate this forum and the help!
Thanks.
damn year of the pig... no wonder there aren't anyone with initial flag. this will take more than 1 hour to even get into the dang thing
i mean... even writing a custom script to do this on the thm kali box and making it use all its threads possible... you sneaky sneaky devil you
@inland onyx can i send you a screen cap?
Yes, you can π
I've been bruteforcing it for 2h now...
@inland onyx If its not gonna be bruteforce I'm gonna whoop ur ass
Haha. That hint, for the record, means that if it takes more than two minutes then something has gone wrong
Missing something still, perhaps then π
On the learn linux room I can not ssh into the server using username shiba1. I have a macbook can not download putty so I tried through terminal. Anybody have this issue?
@white salmon What happens when you try?
it says permission denied
What's the full error message?
permission denied. please try again
Permission denied (publickey,password).
Ok, and you're typing the password shiba1 when prompted for a password?
yes
Where did you get the IP that you're using?
You need to deploy the machine in the room, not the attackbox
under my machine
The machine that you deploy in the room is separate from the attackbox
oh
The room emphasises this in 3 different places
how do you deploy in the room? There is no button to deploy in this one
It just says start attackbox
got it. I appreciate the help. I am new to this
@white salmon new is best... means you care and want to learn and have a passion or hunger to explore as opposed to oldschool grumpy assholes . (no offense to oldschool grumpy assholes present)
I find this very interesting but hard at the same time
On the VulnUniversity room, I can't seem to get the check to work
I have the right answer, but I am more concerned about wondering why it is showing the error "extension not accepted"

I can never remember which way it needs to be set
Just that one of them works and one of them doesn't
It throws me off that this is a free room but the pre-req room of burp suite is not
;_;
There's portswigger academy. Don't limit yourself to just THM.
I will check it out! Prior to THM, I had only intercepted requests and just changed params- so this is really all fun in a whole new world
You do get a free in-browser machine with this room, use that @livid vault
Try Accessing in Browser @livid vault

@stuck fractal i have got the Nt/authority
but i dont know , same user Y it is enabling the SeDebugPrivilege Debug programs Enabled
and in other it is telling like SeDebugPrivilege Debug programs disabled
@celest imp Thats a brand new room so please don't ask for help yet. Give it 72 hours from release
i have got the shell as DARK , in windows i have tried to dump , sut i cant becasue SeDebugPrivilege is disabled
but i have used some msfmodule , that throws the same user with SeDebugPrivilege is ENABLED
i am confused here
after using the ps also it is not showing the nt/authority process
i dont know how windows/local/bypassuac_eventvwr this enables the SeDebugPrivilege (so i can take the hash fromthe mimikatz)
Golden Eye Room: Task 2: 3rd Question: Inspect port 55007, what services is configured to use this port?
I have done nmap scan for this port and pop3 is running. But I'm not able to figure the answer.
on the anonymous playground room, got the funky looking code and im guessing its some sort of cipher as the hint says 'zA' = 'a' but im not too sure what to do with it
You have to create a Python script for it to be decoded
yeah but im not too sure how'd it work
i see the 'a's in it line up with the username magna so i might be able to get the hE and the m for example to figure out this
aight i figured it out
its a damn smart cipher tho ill say
Yea it is I got stuck on it for a long time
im stuck on Task 2 Question 4 Psycho Break Room, can someone give me an advice?

@red minnow oh man I'm stuck there too... Really don't know what to do..
I'm stuck with that too
lol seems to be a fun ride ahead .... i am stuck at the keepers key. Tried lots of stego stuff, but to no success, so really curious what i am missing π
72 hours should be over now π€
Indeed it is
g,
Help/Hints about this room (in the respective channels) are okay now
A hint for the keepers key from my side.. It's not about the picutes on the site
@true prairie yeah I guesses so to, bc i tried everything on them. i was skimming through the JS files too :-/... can I DM u ?
@true prairie yeah I guesses so to, bc i tried everything on them. i was skimming through the JS files too :-/... can I DM u ?
@ivory plinth yeah of course no problem :)
Any hints for Psycho Break Task 2 Question 4? Can't escape Laura...
Same here ... @true prairie since last night .. Lol..
Just not giving up on it. Trying and trying and trying. But no luck so far.
Just not giving up on it. Trying and trying and trying. But no luck so far.
@cerulean sky yeah and I tried the weirdest things.. No success
Even looked up some gameplay videos on YouTube on what to do when encountering Laura
Hahahaha I did too..
Even looked up some gameplay videos on YouTube on what to do when encountering Laura
@true prairie i read the whole wiki π
@true prairie i read the whole wiki π
@grave rain yeah I went to the Wiki link below and thought: hmm well maybe I'll find something useful in here...
Same here guys.. I think I tried countless times to get past the task .. But it is kinda tricky... Yet i like the challenge.. The creator has made a quite a well-thought room..
I read the wiki page .. All of it ..
Same here guys.. I think I tried countless times to get past the task .. But it is kinda tricky... Yet i like the challenge.. The creator has made a quite a well-thought room..
@cerulean sky oh yeah! Overall until now an awesome room and very dynamic
Other than getting a clue I was more tempted to start playing the game on my PS.. I had it since 2017, never played but didn't know I will want to play the game due to a CTF machine I will get stuck in 2020.. Lol ..
Theres really a blurred line between a very well thought room and a random room
Fo' sure
True indeed. The harder we try the better the room actually is .. The motive is to keep trying and get the box done leaving you with learning something new.. I think it's all about the journey to being a good cyber/infosec guy
How do you think it falls? @grave rain between the "very well thought" and a "random room"?
It depends on how you see it i guess
Right now im stuck
So for me its random for now
When an answer pops up.. ill be like damn it was well thought
Even blurrier line in judging lols
Okay - that makes sense
We're (i) debating on changing he difficulty rating so I'm just trying to collect communal thoughts
It definitely not an 'easy walkthrough' room haha
I am surprised that Psycho break is classified as easy ctf room .. I am sure it isn't easy box but definately medium..
Granted our new rules for room testing / review would clasify that room differently but
When an answer pops up.. ill be like damn it was well thought
@grave rain Yeah but right now I don't know what to think. Maybe the answer is so simple yet so obvious. The room was a blast till this point. Now it's a bit of a bummer..
I'm using the "old" rules for when that was submitted and reviewed
Okay, thanks y'all
I'm stuck on task 3 btw π
You give us hope man
Oh.. wow you went past task 2.. awesome.. keep going..
I want to gather a community view/opinion before changing the difficulty rating as it's very subjective so
It looks easy if you know the solutions ngl
Very much ahaha
Just directory bruteforcing and basic command injection
It's that little click in the brain y'know?
aaah it makes sense but it's stupid
xD
You too luls
I'm just keeping my ears for how others find it alongside the rare time I get to try it
May the force be with ya'all..BREAKING THE PSYCHO..
So it's good to hear for me especially (:
When someone whos more pro in this field is stuck with you
Its better for us to hear haha
Makes us feel less nooby
LMAO I'm qualified in a different type of forensics but this is close enough xD
For sure
Atleast not medical field hahaha
Keep on at it folks! I'm dragging on behind with you all β€οΈ
Atleast not medical field hahaha
@grave rain Ahaha well, saying that π
You'd be surprised
I'm a HCP in the UK
That ain't a d*rk swing but
Same profession technically
Infosec attracts a very wide personality π
Im in UK too..
Its one of those subjects which is 100 percent self learn yk
You cant learn stuff like medicine self learn
I mean who would even self learn medicine hahaha
I don't think you will be taken serious if you say you learned medicine by yourself
I only picked it up because my patience/knowlege of infosec was less at Uni lmao
@steady stratus
This is weird haha
Infosec - you don't
But medicine has its share of plot twists lol
Hehee ain't it just huh @grave rain
@steady stratus id like to PM you something about nhs if thats fine by you
gtg.. Nice talking to ya all.. First time on Discord and its indeed a lot of fun to be here among so many like-minded people.. The community is awesome.. We surely come back !! See ya' guy.. Break the psycho or become one ... Lol ..
Sure, go for it @grave rain (:
Thanks @cerulean sky! Best of luck with it all .... until the next time!
Until next time.. Sure.. !! π

Hey folks, working on the Advent room, and I feel like I should be able to actually find the page for the first box but it keeps timing out. My Openvpn is running. I have Burp Suite open and Intercept off. I can get to places like Hotmail....but not the machine that I deployed.

Make sure you have setup your VPN connection correctly https://tryhackme.com/room/openvpn
Type ps aux | grep openvpn into your terminal and press enter
If there's more than one line (that don't start with "grep" or sudo), do the following steps
Type sudo killall openvpn into your terminal and press enter
Start the VPN with sudo openvpn <path-to-config>

On the Mr. Robot CTF box, for Key 2 there is a hint that says "white-colored font". I already got Key 2, but I did not understand the relevance of that hint since it did not involve white-font? I also checked the included write-ups with the box, and they all seemed to use a similar process I did. Would anyone be able to clarify what that meant?

#room-hints is here for people who want a "pointer" towards the room they are completing, and not necessarily a spoiler. As such, when asking a question, be sure to include:
- What room you are on
- At what stage are you stuck exactly? Enumerating? Exploiting? Priv esc?
- What techniques / tools have you tried so far? Just so that we know how to hint you in the right direction without repeating what you've already done
Are you able to type dir
Please mark that as a spoiler or remove the passwords
You'll have to do it now
@trim haven Sorry I hope this didn't seem commanding, I meant it in a different way :(
No problem, i understand your point π
Hint for Task 2 Quest 4 Psycho Break Room pls
@trim haven dir also doesn't work
It seems like there is something wrong with your smbclient
I am getting these error message when i execute any command
NT_STATUS_INVALID_INFO_CLASS listing *

@spiral yew
yes the thing u should know is written on that web page but the trick is fontcolor is white and the background too so u can't see that
Hmm, I solved the whole box without that. I will go back and look around.
there are obv multiple ways to get same data

@trail pebble if you're brute forcing for more than 5 minutes, then you shouldn't be brute forcing
That's the rule here for box creators
@gray garden
do you get the web shell format ?
@trail pebble yes

Stuck on Blue room, following the guide but I can't get past task 2. I've checked LHOST and RHOSTS to make sure they're set correctly, but the exploit completes without creating sessions
Previously have done the Nmap and Metasploit rooms, believe I have everything set properly
I am on blue room too, but I think I found an inconsistency rather than an issue
Stuck on Blue room, following the guide but I can't get past task 2. I've checked LHOST and RHOSTS to make sure they're set correctly, but the exploit completes without creating sessions
@graceful valley run the options command and see if you are missing anything
@flint lintel Double checked all my vars, they seem all to be set correctly. Was able to connect after several tries, I'm attributing my problems to "This can occasionally fail, try running it a couple times" - found in the writeup
I was also running into the same issues, but the PAYLOAD wasn't set right
Blue exploit is not prefect. It can not work sometimes, It can auto bork after a couple failed tries
I don't even have a PAYLOAD option in my options list
oh... well... that might be my next problem
I had to set it with meterpreter/reverse_tcp
it won't show there
@flint lintel It will if it has failed atleast once
@graceful valley Screenshot your options please
I'm giving up on it for the day, my brain is cooked
My issue is that I immediately get a meterpreter shell, when the rest of the tasks guide me through upgrading a regular shell to meterpreter
Metasploit now gives you a meterepreter shell directly @flint lintel It's just how it is now. You can skip the shell_to_metrepreter part
Metasploit now gives you a meterepreter shell directly @flint lintel It's just how it is now. You can skip the shell_to_metrepreter part
@final mortar ah awesome, thanks
I also got dumped right into the meterpreter shell
@graceful valley Which is all right π Skip the conversion part in practical, but read through it
Screenshot of my options
@graceful valley So this works then. Right ?
It did work, at least twice, though I run out of time, my machine expires, IRL gets in the way, and when I come back to it the struggle starts over
I'm going to take a break from it for the night, maybe read the writeup over and try again tomorrow
It did work, at least twice, though I run out of time, my machine expires, IRL gets in the way, and when I come back to it the struggle starts over
@graceful valley once you repeat the process a few times, its pretty quick. I can get it down to sub-minute
@flint lintel Yeah, I was getting pretty quick at the metasploit room
@flint lintel @final mortar Thanks for the help π
@flint lintel @final mortar Thanks for the help π
@graceful valley all good!

@vast wagon sometimes what looks is the way is not the way you'll have to do a bit of digging on the other. Sidee.
Hope my hint gives you a source to startπ
Hey
Any hints for the next step.please
So in YOTP. I have enumerated what appears to be a login page. embedded into that page is some strings .. ive had partial luck decoding this, I can get it back to plain english where i see things like "credentials" and a hell of an api fetch query. But I have found nothing on this site matches the constraints of what the page is asking for. What technique do i use from here, or Am i barking up the wrong tree.
Is this a "Feed it one pig, feed it two pigs, feed it -1 pigs" situation?
@fleet pike hints and help are allowed after 72 hours from release of the room.

Hello, a quick query, looking at day 10 of Advent of Cyber, how do you come to find that its running a vulnerable version of struts? I am using nmap and it just shows me Apache/Coyote, am I missing something?
Tried nikto?
Guys, i joined Smag Grotto room and i stucked in the middle. After that, i decided to look up some writeups and I had to put domain name into my /etc/hosts file. Why should i do that?
Can i just click it on my browser directly with the IP?

@granite flame With the IP too
I've been stuck at the admin login page for Year of the Pig since it came out. I don't think I'm able to exploit the obfuscated js file I found, so I have a feeling this is a password guessing situation. The password hint specifically states the password should be a memorable word, then 2 numbers, then a special character. I have not found any to work, unless this is just some cruel rabbit hole
@plush estuary ^
I got past that bit ok Myles
@graceful dagger Take a look at what happening with the password before its sent to the server
The password is also not in any password list
Can i just click it on my browser directly with the IP?
@granite flame you need to add it to your hosts file if it has virtual host routing like that box does
I am sorry. But what is actually virtual host?
OWASP juiceShop task 7, q2 for the persistent XSS, Iβve done it many, many times and no flag ever comes up. What do I need to do as clearly there is a bug on this question to get the flag? Also tried changing the settings in Firefox config:about browser.urlbar.JavaScript boleen to false with no joy.
hi @plush estuary mind if i ask for some nudges on login page for yotp? been stuck there for quite a while now
yotpig room has passed 72 hours isnt it

@astral smelt Yes, but cake was here with hints a little earlier

@opaque dagger I did this room just some hours ago. Everything should work out fine following the instructions
Sometimes burp stops the flag from being shown, just disable it and you should see the flag
Hello guys. I'm stuck. In the room https://tryhackme.com/room/easyctf, The exploit https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/46635 to perform SQLi on the CMS Made Easy site is not producing the results I expect. May someone explain how this exploit is to be run? I've been trying it but no reasonable output.
that's how I'm running it.
And the output?
Go make lunch I'm here.
Thank you darky 
And the output?
@oblique cliff ...and it's still running. that's for just calculating the salt. other times, none of the fields are found.
It takes some time.
Thatβs wrong tho
try changing it from http://10.10.40.185/simple/admin to http://10.10.40.185/simple/ ?
Also, try to change timer to 5 or something on code.
Ok grill is preheated. Byeeeee
Bye Blob
Ty for the honor. 
The advice has worked out for me π
Great. π
hey guys, im pushing through smaggrotto right now and im struggling with || getting a reverse shell from development.smag.thm/admin.php || ive tried || bash, python, perl, nc and even using curl to output writable directories to my localhost via requests|| no luck so far, im sure im missing something small and am being silly. a nudge would greatly be appreciated!
@rose cape could you show your syntax?
nc with mkfifo almost always works
i know at least 2 of those work
which method do you want me to show you
netcat
nc with mkfifo almost always works

yo thanks sorry about that
i skimmed over what ninja said just reacting with the cat knife thing lol
lmao
i should know by now ninja is the enlightened one 
its easy to skip over what @stuck fractal is saying and just react with 
he gets that kinda reaction from people
lol
I'm correct weirdly often
i skimmed over what ninja said just reacting with the cat knife thing lol
@rose cape It's a blobknife!
omg my bad :(((((((((((
what's a good way to priv esc from sudoedit?
Room, task, question, have you done your research?
hmm, I don't want to spoil anything so is it k if I dm instead?
kk, the room's year of the pig. I've gotten pretty far and I'm on the last step of exploitation right now
I'm fairly certain it's to deal with ||environment variables|| but I'm uncertain about it
can i ask a hint about Revenge?
Hi , curious if anyone faced this in Retro , after getting reverse shell , can't get output of any command !
Hi, im new to all this, how do i change options in metasploit, im doing eternal bule and i got stuck
Hi, im new to all this, how do i change options in metasploit, im doing eternal bule and i got stuck
@wicked graniteset variable value
I recommend trying the metasploit room first, it's pretty good imo https://tryhackme.com/room/rpmetasploit
sounds good
Do you know what netcat is?
no
Well there's a great place to start then
is it like network wide cat function?
yea, im reading on it rn
Hey james ty, i found the answer while it was right in my face
hey guys
Just ask directly.
i need a hint for Flag 3 is located where bob's bash history gets stored.
i tried diffrent command i googled it didn't work
Look for a file.
On the metasploit box, T5 Q9 do i replace where it says payload
yeah, otherwise it won't work
it's a meterpreter shell so if you tried catching it via nc it'll segfault iirc
set payload, not use payload
task11 linux tutorial?
What's up?
i know a bit of linux but something doesnt work
You're going to have to be MUCH less vague.
when i try to run a binary it writes permission denied
i do have ubuntu
i dual booted my pc
i had ubuntu first and then i downloaded win10
That's not the binary
You still need to SSH into the machine
You have skipped over that part.
There is a DEPLOY button on the 1st question for the machine
ik
ssh into it with putty
The instructions are clear.
It's an example.
how am I supposed to know that lol
You're expected to do your own research as well.
then its like cheating
so i need shiba1and my pc ip?
They're literally screenshots to show examples of the command, how is that not an example?
i thought it tells me to do the same way
then its like cheating
@fathom ridge That's not how infosec works. Infosec is ALL about research
as in the pictures
i thought it tells me to do the same way
@fathom ridge It does not. Read the instructions.
?
Walah i quit bro
Bye.
so i need shiba1and my pc ip?
@opaque monolith is it k @stuck fractal
No
Deploy the machine here, and get the Ip from there and put it into putty @opaque monolith
You need to deploy the machine in the room
Get the IP from Active Machine Information
i did that
it comes up when you click the deploy button
It does explicitly warn you about that
ubuntu 18
is it arch?
@opaque monolith Never.
THM doesn't support uploading it, so you won't see an arch machine on THM ever.
it's possible but there's not much point
I just tried running the noot.txt
i dual booted it
it says permission denied
bruh
That's a blank text file
Why would that be executable as a binary?
You're told the name of the binary.
There's no way to instantly become a master hacker
You need to learn, that takes work. And research.
screen shot
sure
are you connected to openvpn?
Are you connected to the VPN?
no
(You can SSH into the machine from the attackbox)
im fiber
@opaque monolith That's not related.
you need to connect to thm network (using openvpn) if you are using your own personal machine
!vpn
Nothing
page lost in matrix
refresh
@tacit roost if you're around, EU2 seems to be 404ing again
refresh
@median reef Nope
Regenerate, and try again
it does 04
Otherwise it's something on THM's side
try eu1
ill just use ubuntu 18.04 next time
@opaque monolith That doesn't really relate at all here
Please don't post answers or passwords
i did
Please don't show answers @barren tulip
But you didn't change user when you were told to
Hi, I am doing the OWASP TOP 10 room, Day 9, task 30, I have to search in exploit-database, but I dont know what I have to search
the hint is:
You know its a bookstore application, you should check for recent unauthenticated bookstore app rce's.
@safe nova Well, if we know it`s a book store, try searchsploit something like "searchsploit book store", the description says it's a RCE, so it's easy, make sure you edit the exploit.
But, you need to find directory(ies) with gobuster or dirb or dirbuster ..., after that you will find more details about ..

@white salmon
Variables are case sensitive
and $Home
oh ok
lol
u wrote "home" in the question and u didnt mention case sensitive
I didn't write that
ok
can someone help with binary- shiba2?
Yeah, it's best to just ask directly and someone will help.
Try it and see
Yep, don't cat a compiled binary
Some of the bytes will be weird characters, because it's raw binary rather than text
when i echoed it it wrote shiba2
You need to set the variable
Then run the binary
The binary will check the value of the variable and if it's set right you'll be given the password
wdym by setting it
IDk if you've done programming before
But setting a variable, putting a value in there
i did
i forgot to run
hello, could somebody help me ? i posted my issue on #room-help fi somebody could, ill be thankful (hope that`s the word)
Someone around I can DM who has already completed Dave's Blog and has an understanding of ROP? I completed the room recently and I want to verify that I understand the exploit necessary for the final flag correctly.
Can i get any hints for revenge please
Im on room blue and i keep getting the message "exploit completed, but no session was created"
