nova tide
#

❀️

grand ember
#

just got my allowance kekw

fair adder
#

someone my friends DM me about tyler please

nova tide
#

@fair adder what you want to know?

fair adder
#

Ive rooted this box ten times

#

I never get credit for king

nova tide
#

umm why?

fair adder
#

echo wizkid > king.txt

#

in /root

#

wth

#

file extist

#

exist

nova tide
#

echo "Naughty" > king.txt

fair adder
#

contents are correct

nova tide
#

cat king.txt ?

fair adder
#

wizkid

nova tide
#

is your name same on THM as well?

fair adder
#

yup

nova tide
#

can you recheck whats your name on THM?

fair adder
nova tide
#

check now it should be working..

#

echo wizkid > king.txt
@fair adder you missed thm in your name there ^

#

Its case sensitive as well

fair adder
#

the king.txt did not exist I had to create it

nova tide
#

so if king.txt have wizkidthm now it should work

#

try going to:
<ip>:9999

#

Box IP ^

fair adder
#

ya 9999 is working

#

i have this issue with this box every time

nova tide
#

try going to <Tyler IP>:9999 what it shows there?

#

if it contains your name you will start getting points

fair adder
#

blank page

#

no content

grand ember
#

so the king.txt should exist, if you had to create it either someone deleted it or you're doing omething wrong

fair adder
#

im the only one on the box

nova tide
#

if its blank page that means your name isnt in king.txt

grand ember
#

mind passing me the IP in DMs? I'll check something

fair adder
#

tardy gull

nova tide
#

wut? O.o

quiet schooner
#

@icy cave bet you haven't

#

DM me.

icy cave
#

on reset no .16 and it takes roughly 10secs to get passwd

quiet schooner
#

As I said, DM me.

#

I created the box.

nova tide
#

^

#

I would like to know the conclusion if he found the wordlist or not ^^

#

if its possible imma start working on that too

quiet schooner
#

@nova tide Found one of several

nova tide
#

ohkkk

#

well its better to start finding the way for root shell instead of wordlist

#

@tardy gull @latent crest when you cant get in you dont have to reset the box as its already working, not broken just patched

tardy gull
#

autopwn scripts not cool mate

#

kinda kills the point

nova tide
#

Wait, what?

#

πŸ˜„

#

2nd reset

tardy gull
#

oof

nova tide
#

autopwn scripts not cool mate
@tardy gull there are machines that can be rooted under a minute

#

although it took me 2 to add my name in king πŸ™‚

latent crest
#

@nova tide I get into wordpess Dashbord....am I in the right path ?

nova tide
#

yeah ^

latent crest
#

I don't understand what I do in the Dashbord can I ask for any hint or something like that ?

#

Should I use a PHP reverse shell from Pentest Monkey ?

nova tide
#

Most likely you are supposed to find where you can add your own commands.. and get a reverse shell from there

latent crest
#

thanks man !

quiet schooner
#

It's a fairly standard wordpress thing

fair adder
#

I’m spinning up Tyler . Anyone interested ?

#

I need to figure this box out

jovial field
#

hey am I on the right way with ftp bruteforce (with rockyou.txt)?

jovial moat
#

autopwn scripts not cool mate
@tardy gull Meh, autopwn isn't a problem - it just means that the box makers need to try harder to make them not work with OOTB tools. Same as port scanning was harder before nmap etc.

quiet schooner
#

@jovial moat No, that's wrong

#

Autopwn scripts are banned, explcitly

#

They do have to be tailored to the box.

jovial moat
#

meh

quiet schooner
#

They'll earn you a KoTH ban.

grand ember

grand ember
#

yeeeah you're going to win

#

lol

lone gorge
#

well how did you send and execute the reverse shell

terse topaz
#

hey Nighty remember me from that koth earlier

grand ember
#

so you connect to the skidy backdoor and print lines to a file with a short path like /tmp/a

lone gorge
#

@terse topaz what is your thm name ?

terse topaz
#

Tasaddar

grand ember
#

then chmod +x it from skidy

#

and from the limited root shell you just run /tmp/a

#

and it runs

lone gorge

lavish mantle
#

the hackers machine is a tough one for me, not alot going on on the web side, cant find known exploits that work etheir, not sure if someone patch it already

raw bear
#

@lavish mantle on hackers, web has a thing going for it... there is a basic way that I used to get into the box that is just going through enumeration checklist... and idk if they are patched or not cuz I am not in game with u πŸ˜›

lavish mantle
#

yeah i searched for what i could, all i was able to find was one flag, and a "spoiler" that mentioned something about keeping pws secure

#

i couldn't find alot on the services versions etc to exploit

#

i did try all pws on all users, on all the services i found

raw bear
#

they are random, so it can be bottom of rockyou... just gotta wait it out...

#

also always doing more enumeration cant hurt

nova tide
#

so you connect to the skidy backdoor and print lines to a file with a short path like /tmp/a
@grand ember how did you print it in one single line? echo would take more letters, and i cant seem to figure out the way from cat(concatenate)

grand ember
#

@nova tide on 9001 you don't need to worry about line length, you set up the file 4here and run from the root one

nova tide
#

Oh, didnt thought about that..

grand ember
#

Also afaik you cannot output chars with cat, only files

You can patch almost all the vulns

terse topaz
#

lol I know

#

If I really want I can grab my old scripts I had for securing a linux machine

#

wait is banning your IP from the machine banned xD

quiet schooner
#

Using scripts to harden the box is also banned

terse topaz

oof

terse topaz
#

gotta admit I dont like this one because it is such an easy foothold.

fair adder
#

foothold meaning you can stay king easily?

terse topaz
#

can become king and stay easily

fair adder
#

ah

lone gorge
#

@terse topaz by saving how to do all the rooms or lookin wlakthroughs πŸ˜„

terse topaz
#

lol no this room is very straight forward. xD its too easy

lone gorge
#

yeah when you look at walkthrough one time and saving it πŸ˜‚

terse topaz
#

I did not xD I did this one yesterday and I remember what I did from then. get into the machine in 2 steps. then root in another 2

#

then patch that vulnerability xD

#

hmm though tell you what I dont like how this machine also keeps a log file and appends your Virtual IP address to it lol.

quiet schooner
#

Those IP addresses are as ephemeral as you want it to be

#

So have fun

terse topaz

Jeez, 7 flags. That’s the most I’ve seen someone get so far

grand ember
#

you can get 2/3 flags easily rn

leaden spoke
#

how did you get in as yoda? I have been stuck at duku for the last 5 games

grand ember

@quiet schooner James, did my boy give you some juicy details in that private DM? @icy cave is on a mission to reverse your box. we spent DAYS looking at that thing

quiet schooner
#

That was days ago

fair adder
#

i been dealing with them riots.. busy bro

quiet schooner
#

They also used the literal worst way to reverse it

fair adder
#

thats part of the fun though. CTFs(in this case KOTH) have a path... but the cool thing is finding other thigs that the creator didn't necessarily want/expect

quiet schooner
#

I'm just sayin

#

There's a much nicer way to reverse it

fair adder
#

sure... and he and i have been working it. but damn if that box didn't piss us off (i know i specifically sent you some PMs about my processes) i am sure i am not the only one ... All said... BRO good box, hell good box to all the KOTH creaters

quiet schooner
#

More CTFs coming.

@quiet schooner any chance that ther ecould be a blue /red on a multi box ...ala... more RL than just 199whatever hackers intro hacking scene ---- for a box?

Huh?

instead of just 10 KOTH, 5 v 5 teams?

on a small cluster of comps

defend a few vulns on a cluster

teams can be interesting

That's allowed, and there will be several vulns.

That's on you. There are at least four vulnerabilities per box, and at least four privescs.

One or two boxes have less, but that's the guide we follow when building them.

If you can only find one, that's your problem.
