Anyone playing koth?

Need help with the hogwarts box

Need help with the hogwarts box
@fathom flame Depends on what you need help with. Go ahead, just mark spoilers with " ||"

fathom flame
#

I wasnt able to solve it. Need some directions

#

All I was able to get was the base64 text from Site

stiff egret
#

That is not something I can help with, the box is still new, plus KoTH boxes are meant to be a challenge.

#

I can just say that enumerate harder. Try tools like rustscan.

fathom flame
#

Right. Understood. Thanks!

I don't play Windows. Offline

What's wrong with Windows?

I need to make me a Windows KoTH box

Window? No probs.
Offline? EH.

terse willow

😁

stiff egret
#

I need to up my game in windows. I suck @ them

terse willow
#

See, I came to realise something

#

Given my speciality just now in box dev is custom development, it really doesn't make a difference what OS I'm building on

#

Which means I get to learn more Windows, at the same time as making boxes that aren't hugely reliant on it

stiff egret
#

well, I have only solved 2 rooms on windows on tryhackme.

#

😆

I have a fun one coming next month

Can we have a friendly team-based KOTH for noobs today?

#

friendly? no brother we are here for each others blood

silk needle

Well I wanna learn but I'm not very good at webapps yet so it'd be nice to have someone help with that

teal raptor
#

join some groups and make teams

silk needle
#

anyone recruiting here?

teal raptor
silk needle
#

I'm starting a KOTH

silk needle
#

OK that was fun

#

I won for once

#

Somehow neither of the other 2 got on the box?

#

Question: The rules disallow modifying the flags, but can we change the flag file with out touching the text? I mean like renaming, changing permissions, moving the file elsewhere.

#

Even zipping the flag with a password

stiff egret
#

Moving the file is not allowed, you can change permissions of it but you cannot rename it.
No, zipping is not allowed as well.

nova tide
#

Not sure if you are allowed to change permissions either. If flag is for a specific user and a person gets shell for that user they should be allowed to get that flag.

terse willow
#

Not strictly speaking denied by the rules, but it definitely contradicts the "keep it real" stuff

sharp parrot
#

fair adder
sharp parrot
#

go easy on me guys 😆

fair adder
#

same to me @stiff egret @sharp parrot

sharp parrot
#

@stiff egret i think you went hard on us lol

stiff egret
#

um, I didn't patch anything.

sharp parrot
#

oh i was gonna ask you this

#

||idk i got a shell although i think i can use nc but i dont think it would help me||

stiff egret
#

what do you mean?

sharp parrot
#

||i got shrek but i cant get root or find other flags||

stiff egret
#

You need to priv Esc from shrek to root, use basic stuff like, linPEAS,/ enum etc.

sharp parrot
#

ye im trying

stiff egret
#

do basic stuff first, like checking sudo -l, SUID bins etc.

fair adder
#

@stiff egret i know i cant stay for long but am trying my best but 2nd is good for me though boss

stiff egret
#

That is you? oh dang

#

😆

#

I didn't realise lmao

sharp parrot
#

||ik its a competition but im a beginner so i rather learn so are you guys scripting so your name will always be in king.txt?||

stiff egret
#

yep

sharp parrot
#

i did it too but im not the king any clue why?

stiff egret
#

it comes down to efficiency, the faster your code can open, write and close the file, the better

sharp parrot
#

but i wrote a loop

#

i put sleep too should i remove it?

stiff egret
#

yeah, I see that, sleep 0.1

sharp parrot
#

lol you see that

stiff egret
#

remove that, it's making the code slow

sharp parrot
#

how can you even get into my shell

#

ik but i dont want to nuke the machine

stiff egret
#

bombing on one file won't have much affect on machine

sharp parrot
#

alright thanks

stiff egret
#

😄

sharp parrot
#

is your code like mine? or yours is more complicated?

stiff egret
#

It's a bit different

sharp parrot
#

i dont understand why at the first time i joined with ssh file but now it is requesting me password for shrek

stiff egret
#

because someone changed the sshkeys

sharp parrot
#

ohhhhhh

stiff egret
#

@fair adder that's your loop for python reverse shells?

gentle hatch
#

gg

stiff egret
#

GG

sharp parrot
#

NOOO i found all the flags but needed time to recover the last 2

#

im bad at being the king

stiff egret
#

go for king/root first, you can always get flags afterwards

gentle hatch
#

idk why my script wouldn't write to king.txt despite my permissions being correct :/

#

oh well

nova tide
#

afterwards*

stiff egret
#

wat

#

kekw @nova tide

sharp parrot
#

@stiff egret if i run the script first for the king.txt does that mean no one will get the king after me/

#

?

stiff egret
#

gotta say, it was fun

sharp parrot
#

yea it was

stiff egret
#

@stiff egret if i run the script first for the king.txt does that mean no one will get the king after me/
@sharp parrot no, as I said, it comes down to efficiency of your code, if someone else's code is faster, then they'll be king

sharp parrot
#

alright

#

man im sorry for spamming with questions but if my script is only 4 lines how can another script be more efficient than mine?

gentle hatch
#

language

#

c or some low-level language would probably be the fastest

#

but who the hell has time for that

fair adder
#

Playing with @stiff egret really make me realize my mistakes next time I will try and fix my self well 😉 it was a great game 👍👌😁 guyz

sharp parrot
#

oh really?

c or some low-level language would probably be the fastest
@gentle hatch

#

ok thanks

gentle hatch
#

yup, any compiled language will run laps around python or bash

stiff egret
#

Yup

#

but you can kick others kekw

gentle hatch
#

would it be evil to alias every binary in bin lmao

stiff egret
#

alias is allowed, moving/renaming binaries isn't.

gentle hatch
#

im still not sure what the etiquette is for being root and what you can/can't mess with, obv you can't kill shells and services and make things inaccessible

stiff egret
#

You can kill shells, spam them, etc,

#

Just killing services that are present by default is not allowed

fair adder
#

I think is about defending whiles and attack but make sure the game is still running as it is @gentle hatch

stiff egret
gentle hatch
#

ahh okay i feel bad taking peoples footholds away but maybe ill start killing webshells after a while, give people a fair chance for persistence

fair adder
#

@gentle hatch hehehe

gentle hatch
#

anyways always a GG with holmes, starting to slowly learn the meta for this

sharp parrot
#

@hushed palm hint?

hushed palm
#

there are a few different ways

sharp parrot
#

i tried notsromo

#

nostromo

#

nothing works

#

it allows one word to be executed

#

what service can i use?

#

i know there is a /upload but /uploads is forbidden

#

@hushed palm any hint?

hushed palm
#

you need to check other ports maybe you can access the files you uploaded from there

#

i am done again i cant access the machine

#

my vpn is up tryhackme says connected but i cant do anything on this machine

boreal flare
#

ip table rules ?

#

someone might be toying with you guys

hushed palm
#

oh

sharp parrot
#

man i messed it up on the nostromo exploit i didnt use the "" for multiple word command execution

wraith geyser
#

how did you privesc?

#

got the shell through nostromo but couldn't find anything other than the 1st flag

sharp parrot
#

how did you get shell @wraith geyser ?

#

i also used nostromo but i couldnt run python scripts with the exploit

wraith geyser
#

the one on exploit db

#

it doesnt have python or python3 installed

#

so i got a rev shell with netcat

sharp parrot
#

meowless are you here?

sharp parrot
#

anyone who wants to play koth enter

sharp parrot
#

guys on koth restart

wraith geyser
#

who killed it?

sharp parrot
#

idk

#

hit restart

#

is it working?

nova tide
#

who did that?

wraith geyser
#

idk

#

sharp parrot
#

alright it restarted

nova tide
#

its reset now.. but someone did something though

wraith geyser
#

did someone fork bomb or something

sharp parrot
#

is the new ip working now?

wraith geyser
#

oh new ip

brazen cloud
#

Shoot the Game ID and the username and/or terminal session(s) you think it was @nova tide (and other players) to koth@tryhackme.com *edit: support replaced with koth

#

They'll have logs from the instance itself - much more then what we have available atm

sharp parrot
#

||hey i cant ssh is it just me?||

#

?

wraith geyser
#

wait why is the flag not submitting

sharp parrot
#

nvm

wraith geyser
#

whos rmrfing everything

sharp parrot
#

idk what is happening im just closing the vm

wraith geyser

tepid berry
#

imma report this
@fair adder dirty players

stiff egret
#

🤷‍♂️ you can always reset the box. If it is actually an issue then other players will support you on this.

#

If not then you know the problem is on your side.

fair adder

the ssh isn't working , the ftp too is not working

#

and Droggie it's king on the box

#

fair adder
#

we'll see on the logs

gentle hatch

quiet schooner
#

y'all quit screaming at eachother, reset the box if you need to

fair adder

#

theres 4 other people in the game
@gentle hatch i am not accusing you

quiet schooner

Move on.

fair adder

gentle hatch
#

gentle hatch
#

OTHER PEOPLE CAN GET ROOT FFS

quiet schooner

Calm down.

tepid berry

Please read the KoTH rules, and the discord rules

#

And also, please cut back on the cursing?

cold bobcat
#

i gotchu

#

out of pure curiosity how did you end my shell? i was tryna figure out how to end yours but i didnt know how

#

or did you just shut down ssh

quiet schooner
#

Wasn't me, but you can kill the bash/sh process

winged charm
quiet schooner
#

IIRC restarting/killing SSH shouldn't boot you out but I'm not 100%

cold bobcat
#

maybe a combo of both because ssh isnt responding

#

I think its my end i cant even ping the machine

quiet schooner
#

!vpnscript
