I was just doing the WebOSINT room and the final exam question seems to be based on something that could not be found without the format given on the thm room page.

it indicates that the info can be found for the two domains but there is no indication that one of the domains ever was related to the answer.

I guess that room just takes to much time to update every time

green steppe
#

not since the room was updated

#

the room can't have bugs, all flags are in the hints, if a user reports a bug it's their fault for not reading the first task which states that the answers update all the time and if something's wrong use the hints 😜

#

I just checked

#

that task has the flag in the hint

no bugs

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, please correct me if not. Regarding the Hacker One room, challenge 2, this happened when submitted the correct flag. Now it's marked as "already solved" and can't get the "back-to-thm" flag. Happened to anyone?

@dusky junco @green steppe There is a same error faced by many users in the Hacker101 platform for gaining flags for root and sending them to the THM platform for the easy challenge. Please see to it that it is resolved as more and more members have joined the room and they are facing the same issue as it is mentioned in the #announcements

topaz thorn
#

It’s H1 side of issues they can’t fix that unless all the flags get changed to THM format

spiral eagle

So. Are we just not going to be able to submit flags then?!

winged wraith
#

https://tryhackme.com/room/johntheripper0, task 6 and not really a bug but poor/misleading writing imo (or maybe the way john works in that regard changed, idk. Should still be addressed, though):
The whole task is about shadowed password files and unshadowing them to feed that file into John, when in fact you don't have to unshadow anything at all!? The task explains that when you don't have the whole passwd and shadow files, you can just put the relevant lines you have in a file each. So of course what I'm going to do is extract the two lines from the Task-File and put them into separate ones to unshadow them. When you do that and feed the resulting file into john, it just says that no password hashes have been loaded and points you toward the FAQ. I've spent about 40 mins to try and figure out myself how to get it working before consulting a writeup. The author of that just fed the Task-File (as is! No unshadowing) to john and got it cracked?? I then tried the same and it worked as well.
So to get to my point: Why is the whole task about unshadowing passwd files, leading one to believe, that the Task-File (or at least the lines in there) is supposed to be unshadowed as well, when in fact it isn't required nor even works if tried?! Pls fix!

In the Cryptography for Dummies room (https://tryhackme.com/room/cryptographyfordummies) it is mentioned in the text that asymmetric cryptography is more secure but the corresponding question What type of cryptography is more secure? in Task 2 accepts symmetric as the correct answer.

silk narwhal
#

In the cryptography for dummies room, it says "The most popular use of hashes is for file identification and storing sensitive data, like passwords." First part is wrong, it isn't used to identify , it is used to verify the integrity of a file to make sure it has not been changed, identifying has nothing to do with it. Like in the CIA triad, hashes are under I-Integrity

Just wanted to post up that the Introduction to Django room does not work (specifically task 4). I tried the room 5 separate times from scratch. Other members are having the exact same issues.

Steel Mountain room task 3 in particular, but it's a bit of a thing throughout the entire room, lot of screenshots, lot of no alt text for the screenshots. I don't even necessarily expect command output to be featured if we're screenshotting but can I please at least have the commands used in alt text or caption? I don't mind researching but as a screenreader user, having a flow explained in pictures where I essentially have to play guess the verb to recreate what was shown seriously slows me down and takes me out of the flow of learning a new technique. Thanks very much πŸ™‚

zealous helm
#

hello. any staff member here?

topaz thorn
#

Why do you need staff?

zealous helm
#

I want to understand why i am getting AV alerts from the wepbage before disabling my AV protection

#

and I cannot advance my room or increase VM lifespan

topaz thorn
#

Are you using AVG or Avast?

zealous helm
#

Bitdefender

topaz thorn
#

Ah, ok yea you'll want to disable it, for some weird reason some AV like to block it

zealous helm
#

this isn't the best solution for a security-oriented professional and community
i have no doubts the community and website are legit, but i think these should be solved and understood where we can

obsidian kiln
#

@zealous helm it's the nature of hacking, I'm afraid. Antivirus is designed to keep you safe by insulating you from anything dangerous. By definition, learning to hack is dangerous -- antivirus can't tell the difference between you learning, and an attacker executing malicious commands.

obsidian flame
obsidian kiln
#

So, essentially, it's something you're going to have to live with. You can't play it safe and learn dangerous stuff at once.
Most of the tools you'll be using would also be picked up by AV -- it doesn't make them harmful, just that they could be used in a harmful way

obsidian flame
#

To endorse what muri says. Bitdefender picks up a lot of the windows stuff

#

It will block you downloading stuff from GitHub as well

#

AVG wasn't that silly but it seems that bitdefender takes a step forward

#

I added my vm folder into the exclusions list and TryHackMe me as a safe website and it works fine

zealous helm
#

Local malicious files and stuff I control / want to analyze - that is understandably blocked by AV and it should be, by all means. I can manage excepting that stuff.
But the alerts I am receiving are on a request made when I want to access the Alfred room web link, with the list of tasks. - which should not serve anything malicious

#

And yes, AV blocks downloading of mimikatz, for example, or Google warns against pentestmonkey website. but those are known to be malicious stuff (not pentestmonkey, I never understood why google warns against that in particular, since the code is just there, not actually executing)

#

too add to the issue, the alert comes only for the alfred room and I can provide the link, should anybody want to look into it a bit more
other rooms are ok

umbral lynx
#

please describe the smell of roses then

zealous helm
#

I don't get the reference, if it was directed at me

zealous helm
#

I am aware that FPs exist but also want to make sure there is nothing wrong with that particular page

eternal summit
#

Bitdefender has a LOT of false positives with THM

#

Simply submitting '/etc/password' as an answer from a Windows machine triggers an alert and blocking.

gleaming shadow
#

Windows defender keeps picking up my PHP reverse shell it's a bit annoying

eternal summit
#

Detects it as an RCE attempt which K think we can all agree is total nonsense

gleaming shadow
#

I means it's not wrong per se

eternal summit
#

I'm still talking about /etc/passwd

gleaming shadow
#

Oh yeah that's dumb

#

Some AVs are overly zealous

#

There a Symantec thing that blocks all TCP and UDP communications to WSL2 on my work machine

#

To and from rather

sonic willow
#

https://tryhackme.com/room/wireshark, task 5

This second method is known as display captures, you can apply display captures in two ways: through the analyze tab and at the filter bar at the top of the packet capture.
it's "display filters" rather than "display captures"

#

also, in task 6

Application Protocol (Layer 5) -- This will show details specific to the protocol being used such HTTP, FTP, SMB, etc. From the Application layer of the OSI model.

Application Data -- This is an extension of layer 5 that can show the application-specific data.
application is layer 7, not 5

sonic willow
#

in task 11,

HTTP is one of the most straight forward protocols for packet analysis, the protocol is straight to the point and does not include any handshakes or prerequisites before communication.
this is wrong, it's tcp so it still requires the three way handshake prior to http requests

gleaming shadow
#

in HOTH:hard, is it normal that the application running on container 4 is totally and completely broken?

dusky junco
#

No it isn't normal -- it might take a minute or two to startup in comparison to the other containers but

gleaming shadow
#

at least the POST and the PUT can't possibly work

dusky junco
#

should be fully accessible

gleaming shadow
#

sending a put breaks the app irrevocably requiring a full reboot of the VM

#

running it locally to get a debugger on it and I'm getting strange things

dusky junco
#

I believe I took the pathing to needing to POSTing & PUTing out in the end (before the event started)

#

Oof

#

Well that's not good at all

#

I'll have a deploy & look at the code

gleaming shadow
#

after a PUT:

#

then internal server errors regardless of what happens

dusky junco
#

||the whole "launch applications" is a rabbit hole there's just an endpoint that discloses information ||

gleaming shadow
#

and for a POST:
||

    app_id = int(max(APPS.keys()).lstrip('name')) + 1
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'pp4'

||

#

I know that it doesn't do anything, I was looking for SSTI

#

because I can't find any other way to privesc to root to exploit the rest on that container 😦

dusky junco
#

ahh gotcha

gleaming shadow
#

(yet)

dusky junco
#

there's 3 ways to privesc (as per the room) and 4 containers so ((:

gleaming shadow
#

well, darn I haven't found a foothold on any of the other machines yet

dusky junco
#

one might consider it a "bonus" container once you get a foothold

gleaming shadow
#

everything is filtered to hell and back

dusky junco
#

Do you have an instance up rn?

gleaming shadow
#

yeah

#

I'll look around some more if that container's a bust

dusky junco
#

It's not a bust in the sense that there's nothing of value

#

DM me the IP ((:

gleaming shadow
#

too bad there was a lovely bit of footwear lying around

#

hang on

#

seems to be a blocade on my or your end

dusky junco
#

the only situation I can think where everything is filtered is if yeah the containers have died (or you started hammering the IP straight away)

gleaming shadow
#

not nmap filtered

#

I mean it's being cheeky

dusky junco
#

ah gotcha!

#

I guarantee you -- you're looking farr too into it (:

#

but if you think there's an issue with the box gimmie a DM w/ it and I'll double check!

gleaming shadow
#

like there's a potential LFI which keeps telling me I'm not allowed to view files in said directory

#

so yeah trying harder πŸ˜›

#

that one's the most promising lead I have anyways

dusky junco
#

potentially aye -- but you know the endpoints by now, something returns a value. It's just about using the info it returns & the enumeration you would of done at the start (:

#

Trying my best to not spoil it

gleaming shadow
#

yeah I know it's hard πŸ™‚

#

not sure what to do about the login, and I really don't want to resort to bruteforcing

#

the other one I have a lead but no avenue to exploit it yet

dusky junco
#

The most I can say about that one is just have a look at how the form works and go around that ((:

gleaming shadow
#

there's an api somewhere, ight have to fuzz that one of these days

#

and a token

dusky junco
#

you don't need to fuzz to see where requests end up

#

Okay I gotta bite my tongue on after that lmao!

#

I've got every element already written up -- just waiting for competition to end

gleaming shadow
#

yeah ok there's something wierd about that server

dusky junco
#

I'm taking a look at the container you were talking about but yeah you're farrrr overlooking it

#

but PUT'ing and POSTing shouldn't make everything fall over soo I need to recreeate that condition

gleaming shadow
#

I got in that container

#

but didn't find anything too useful inside

dusky junco
#

there's 3 ways to privesc (as per the room) and 4 containers so ((:

#

it depends on what you consider too be useful

gleaming shadow
#

yeah nothing that lets me abuse aforementioned footwear

dusky junco
#

πŸ˜… I can't help too much outside of what I've talked about and looking at the code for that to see why POSTing etc crashes it (which I'm doing rn)

gleaming shadow
#

POST just does nothing

#

the app_id thing breaks

#
-  app_id = int(max(APPS.keys()).lstrip('name')) + 1
+  app_id = int(max(APPS.keys()).lstrip('app')) + 1

this seems to work

not sure where to post this, I was doing the Active Directory Basics room and the deployed VM uses powerview.ps1 version 2, and the link provided for powerview commands is for version 3, which have different commands.

https://tryhackme.com/room/yara

/home/cmnatic/tools/Loki/signature-base/yara/gen_icon_anomalies.yar

In this rule, Yara needs "pe" module. But import "re" is not written, so it occurs syntax error when following the Task 9 Document.
You need to add import "re" to gen_icon_anomalies.yar.

Hint : For those still working on Lunizz, YES, you can get ad****'s password from the bcrypt script and the popular wordlist. Here is what i did, i removed all special characters that did not convert to ISCII , all numbers only passwords (because who does that?), all 6 characters or less (as a start , because of the first mysql password length, thought others will be long as well). This still took a long time but not as others.

#

Another Lunizz hint on that password: Its a plaintxt for a known sha256 hash, so maybe skip all the other words in the wordlist and run against known shar256 hashes. My writeup is coming soon

# icy elbow same, || got xxe, got exfiltration, but /var/www/html/controllers/Api.php|| does...

replying to myself here. This is not a bug. I think this is down to the implementation of whatever http.server you use to host your dtd/listen to the calls made in order to exfil
I was using python3 -m http.server and hitting a URL character limit. Others have told me they used netcat successfully (I didn't test this). In the end chaining filters allowed me to compress the results enough to fit it in my http.server.

Is it possible that the Intro to IoT Pentesting room has something wrong? At the end of task 5 you're supposed to be able to curl for the passwd file.

tranquil quest
#

I don’t want to go into too much specific so it doesn’t ruin the room.

E.g. the room will ask you to use one method however the method is not available on attackbox and you need to use another method

#

I’m happy to message you privately regarding the specifics Ninja

eternal summit
#

You can say it here.

tranquil quest
#

Ok , so on the room wireshark

#

It will ask you to use the TLS protocol to decrypt the https traffic with the KEY however on attack the box, I believe the wireshark is not updated as the TLS protocol isn’t there.

After a bit of researching I found that we can also use the SSL protocol instead.

eternal summit
#

And have you checked version numbers to verify this?

tranquil quest
#

I cannot verify the version number as I’m not on it at the moment. I read an article that said if you cannot find the TLS protocol use the SSL protocol instead and it worked.

eternal summit
#

So the room works just fine. Requiring a little bit of research and troubleshooting isn't much of a problem.

tranquil quest
#

Ok sweet, just wanted to know if the rooms were built like that on purpose.

eternal summit
#

No, but things change. People's installs are different.

#

Do rooms get updated?

yes

Your phone is connected to it, as is your computer. What happens if you want to send something to your phone from your computer? You can't just send stuff directly to your phone -- not without directly connecting them, so how would the information get across? The request would first be sent to your router which acts as a gateway
this is kinda correct for home networks, since the "router" has an inbuilt switch. but since both devices are on the same network, the request would not go through the switch

@tough linden Hey, sorry for the ping.
With your Windows PrivEsc room, on Task 11, the python-crypto package has been removed from kali so we cannot apt install it. https://pkg.kali.org/pkg/python-crypto
Most of the tools for extracting the hashes from the SAM and SYSTEM hives seem to be python2, which is the root of the problem.
I think it'd be great if the room could be updated so that people don't run into this problem, and potentially include alternative methods of dumping the hashes given the registry files. I think the most stable one is going to be samdump2 which is a part of Ophcrack.

eternal summit
#

Additionally, I think recommending --force there is somewhat irresponsible as it can lead to both false positives and false negatives

#

Hashcat in a Kali VM was largely fixed, but it's better to recommend John for VMs.

obsidian kiln
#

Impacket Secretsdump is the one I would go for

eternal summit
#

Also I thought we were avoiding easily broken tools

obsidian kiln
#

Yes, it will

And, uh, shaky as impacket may or may not be, that one has never failed me

samdump2 is in c, so no nasty python dependencies. Binary for Kali as part of ophcrack.

Hi, I have a question regarding RSA
In the room: https://tryhackme.com/room/encryptioncrypto101
Task 6:

The public key is n and d, the private key is n and e.

There’s a lot more maths to RSA, and it gets quite complicated fairly quickly. If you want to learn the maths behind it, I recommend reading MuirlandOracle’s blog post here.
https://muirlandoracle.co.uk/2020/01/29/rsa-encryption/

here it says that the public key is n (the product of p and q) and the d (decryption key) which seems counter intuitive, decrypting stuff should be private, right?

In MuirlandOracle’s blog post it says the opposite of the room:
Public key: e and n (anyone can encrypt messages for me using the public key)
Private key: d and n (only me can decrypt the messages using my private key)

Has this mistake really been sitting there all that time?

i really think the ( WiFi hacking 101 room ) need to be adjusted , they just asking questions and not explaining any this , i could not answer these question without searching the internet and they did not provide any explanation for the airmon-ng tool , for a beginner this room is not that much useful

eternal summit
#

Rooms are not standalone. They are to be supplemented with your own research

You are perfectly able to read manuals, the room is a guided approach through some of the theory (not the tools) and then using the tools to attack your own hotspot.

eternal summit
#

`I will attach a capture for you to practice cracking on. If you are spending more than 3 mins cracking, something is likely wrong. (A single core VM on my laptop took around 1min).

In order to crack the password, we can either use aircrack itself or create a hashcat file in order to use GPU acceleration. There are two different versions of hashcat output file, most likely you want 3.6+ as that will work with recent versions of hashcat.`

#

The capture comes from the steps in the task above

On the xss room on Task 5, if you use a valid image and go ||http://10.10.191.15/img/smallLogo.png" onmouseover="alert(document.cookie);||, then you will not get the flag - But if you use an invalid image and go ||nothinghere" onmouseover="alert(document.cookie);|| you will get the flag. You should get the flag either way.

it's looking for a specific exploit I think

detecting xss is tricky as there are multiple ways to get the same result

The exploit is valid (Shows the flag) with any invalid image, but never with a valid image - But nowhere does it specify that the image has to be invalid

In ghidra room it suggests to install sudo apt install openjdk-13-jre openjdk-13-jdk

#

but the packages has been removed from kali linux distribution

#

should probably use default-jre and default-jdk

gleaming shadow
#

just jdk should be sufficient

#

or jre if you're just planning on running, though didn't they combine those recently?

#

but the jdk generally contains a jre as well

the problem is openjdk has been removed from the repo

some one had the problem before where they tried to install openjdk in kali

it was removed on 25 jan 2021

Hey guys not sure if this is exaclty a bug, but when doing the active directory basics course, in the hands on lab section, when using the start machine option it just forces the inbrowser machine to launch, the room mentions you should be able to RDP or SSH but the machine wont start without the in browser machine. (Sorry if this is the wrong spot for this)

eternal summit
#

The in browser machine is the deploy here, right? Not the attack box?

#

Because if so, that's not a bug.

You need to deploy the machine in order to interact with it.

https://tryhackme.com/room/rpmetasploit Task 5 tells you to set a meterpreter payload for multi/handler and set LHOST there. That's totally pointless, and you need to set LHOST again when you switch back to Icecast. In addition, you now get a meterpreter shell to using shell_to_meterpreter in task 6 does not work.

#

Switching module to multi/handler here causes a LOT of issues, and I think it should be removed.

wsl2

#

because it's faster than the full Hyper-V backend?

#

and can integrate with WSL2 VMs without having to reinstall docker everywhere

obsidian kiln
#

Honestly, you're shooting yourself in the foot if you're not able to use Docker on your attackbox

somber vessel
obsidian kiln
#

@dusky junco could you check the specs/licensing on that box for me please?

dusky junco
#

I'll take a look at this today (: @somber vessel @obsidian kiln

dusky junco
#

I've got a few things to do/sort out beforehand but yeah I'll let you know

balmy kite
dusky junco
#

For the record I'm v hesitant on installing things from the get go on the attackbox (as useful as they may be) because of numerous reasons like:

  • increases the boot time when you deploy
  • from a business point of view -- we have to increase resources which very quickly gets even more expensive considering the amount of users we have use the attackbox daily (cc @twin tapir)
#

I'll look into how much impact having openvas has on the attackbox has etc but yeah

#

The above is my general logic behind choosing what to add to the attackbox etc

gleaming shadow
#

Docker on Windows uses the WSL2 as a backend, and it integrates with other WSL2 distros

#

but it uses the host network connection

#

which is the gotcha

balmy kite
#

I'm using it on my own VM via vpn. Interesting kit. Have to look into what more it has to offer,

obsidian kiln
gleaming shadow
#

I use WSL2 because VMs don't play nice with hyper-V, Docker requires hyper-V and kali in hyper-V is a PITA

#

WSL2 is a lightweight VM to begin with

#

just that docker integrated some magic to make it play nice

fair palm
#

may I dm you @gleaming shadow

#

?

obsidian kiln
#

Regardless, the ideal way to install it would be in a VM using docker imo. Anything beyond that is a personal thing.

gleaming shadow
#

docker pull, yes

#

it's just that docker in Windows behaves a bit oddly

#

at least with WSL2

obsidian kiln
#

Yes, but, uh, docker in windows isn't exactly the recommended way of connecting up

gleaming shadow
gleaming shadow
#

and I can't get any hypervisor other than hyper-V working properly regardless of what Virtualbox says

obsidian kiln
#

The recommended way of connecting into the THM network is either the AttackBox or a Kali VM. Anything other than that is a personal thing, but docker within kali would fit in with the current recommendations

gleaming shadow
#

yeah I usually go in via a Kali on WSL2, which works pretty well in general

#

but that's only because Hyper-V is dumb and greedy

#

and generally the VPN is active within the WSL2 VM

#

except for Docker

#

which isn't a problem in most use-cases

#

except this one

#

not complaining or anything, just a heads up because I don`t think I'm the only one doing this

somber vessel
#

@dusky junco can you look into this room as well? it works for a while but then the CMD gets lagged/stucked for awhile

Not a bug.

#

Compare it to the screenshots of the room.

eternal summit
#

Great. Notice how the webapp is Greenbone Security assistant, and the scanner is OpenVAS.

#

So the diagram is correct, and it is using OpenVAS.

#

Greenbone Security Assistant is the interface to present the findings.

twin tapir
#

its just a different version than the docker version

#

what you interface with doesnt matter even close to as the methodology and technical details behind it

balmy kite
#

My initial remark was that the link you provided for Kali install was actually for Ubuntu, and turned out NOT to work on Kali. However, the link I provide did work, as you can see from the screenshots.

#

In my opinion, a link that leads to a not working solution, is a bug. So, instead of discussing it here, maybe give a working link for the Kali option? What costs more time?

twin tapir
#

Ive used that method, it works

#

If you can give me actual evidence showing it doesnt then Ill change it
