You can setup an upstream socks proxy in user options tab in burp
Does this lab block ips in the event of too much fuzzing from a unique one ?
nope
How do you find the username for task 28? I feel like this is obvious and I'm just overlooking something simple
I feel like my network is broken. It just shutdown cuz I forgot to extend and since the restart the linux host is not reachable
$ ping 10.200.107.33
PING 10.200.107.33 (10.200.107.33) 56(84) bytes of data.

Does the amsi bypass run within the shell code? Or do you run it prior to the revere shell callback to disable Amsi? I'm getting a bit confused
You need to run it before calling your shell
Is that around Task 43?
Hey...I think I'm stuck on task 37...
I can't seem to authenticate to the fileserver 01 using the syntax given....tried running evil-winrm with proxy chains... didn't work..
Tried RDP.... I'm getting "account restrictions are preventing this user from signing in. For example blank password's......"
Anybody got past this point?
Oh snap...I realized my mistake😹
Hi, it's been like one hour that i cant access the holo web server wordpress site, is that normal ?
is it because of other people spamming wfuzz ?
Hey are you on task 43
Can we get a reset on this?
Anyone on the network?
Uptime is 30minutes and nothing is working
I found there wasn't a scheduled task, had to use print nightmare to priv esc
What did you put fown for the dll and executables then?
So I ran through the steps as admin user and worked it out. Procmon works as an admin, so run print nightmare. Then follow the guide
Perfect thank you
Gave +1 Rep to @minor flax
yes i complete it
Can someone shed some light on: Task 38 Post Exploitation Watson left her locker open
I created a payload ||kavremoverENU.dll|| and copied to the same directory where the ||kavremover application|| is located at; ||C:\Users\watamet\Applications||
I setup a multi handler on Metasploit. However the reverse shell is never caught by the handler.
Unless I misuderstood something the trigger to run ||kavremover|| is a ||scheduled task||. Am I missing something?
Hey, i'm also stuck here.
Anybody help?
Quick question on task 47/48....
would adding both socks 4 & 5 be affecting my ntmrelayx session?
i have 3 days left on holo network. I think in finish in time. but if not, can i do it again ?
You will be able to rejoin, they just have the 10 days to they can lighten the load on the networks
cool thanks @cinder notch
Gave +1 Rep to @cinder notch
I had to escalate with print nightmare as the scheduled task wasn't there
Looks like the address is in use. Try changing the port and setting up a new line in proxychains config
Awesome....Thanks , let me try that
I'd also recommend looking at sshuttle as a tool for pivoting, it makes life a lot easier
Nice..
sshuttle on task 23 or in task 47 where you setup socks4
Sshuttle through to get to the .35 box. Then that leaves the ports available for the local pivot for the ntlmrelay
Thanks, that is what I did
Gave +1 Rep to @minor flax
did someone on the 10.200.95.0/24 network change the password of linux-admin account 10.200.95.33?
I cannot use sshuttle anymore with the usual credentials
if its still like that. Re-pop it and add an ssh key into authorised_keys then you can sshuttle as root 🙂
Thanks Yekki 🙂
Gave +1 Rep to @minor flax
Getting the following messages from ntlmrelayx for task 48:
Is there a switch to use a compatible version of kerberos?
I had that but it worked anyway. The second error looks like the port forward is the issue @clever sky
why doesn't this command work sc config lanmanserver start= disabled
Also, how in the hell do you get sshuttle to work. I run the command and get "connected to server". However I can't navigate to any of the devices
@minor flax Any chance you can help with this?
That sounds right. What's your sshuttle command? Have you included the target range to pivot too?
Sshuttle -r linux-admin@10.200.110.33 10.200.110.0/24
You might need to add -x to exclude the host you are connecting too. But from memory that looks right
sshuttle -r root@admin.holo.live --ssh-cmd "ssh -i /home/yekki/.ssh/id_rsa" 10.200.142.0/24 -x 10.200.142.33
That's the command I had that worked @timid moss
I can't wait to finish this room. It has been a major pain in my ass
This is what I get everytime
Nothing after the connection and I can't ping anything
@minor flax You ran this command sc config lanmanserver start= disabled on the PC server as admin, correct?
ICMP is its own seperate protocol and doesn't proxy through sshuttle
Thank yuou
Gave +1 Rep to @wind bobcat
Ah yeah sshuttle doesn't handle icmp (ping), this took me a while to find out.
Also on the sshuttle command you can add -v for verbose, gives a bit more info to make sure the iptables are being set correctly
Hey, I just wanted to know if we have limited days of access to the Holo Network?
I think it's like 10 days, but after that you can just rejoin the room.
The only difference is the network is reset and you get a new subnet, so you have to re-do all your pivoting etc
Okay thanks so, after 10 days I can re-do thanks, I had to complete a few AD rooms first before diving into this.
Gave +1 Rep to @minor flax
Yeah can just re-join as many times as you want. Think it took me 3 rounds of rejoining the room 🙂
hello. what does the "9 days left" mean?
prolly, your subscription ends in 9 days, holo is a subscriber only lab
but I still have more days till the next subscription date, so...
That was for you.
oooh I get it now. thanks @zenith delta
Gave +1 Rep to @verbal prawn
I'm returning to holo after a day offline, network uptime is 23m and I can ping L-SRV01 but no other ports are open, is this normal?
Anyone know why this happens? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/943699891497103372/945744805995114566/unknown.png
Yes, it's because your in a reverse shell. I would recommend trying ssh
I don't think I can ssh....
it's a connection between compromised host to internal target. I can get the internal target id_rsa but the compromised host doesn't have ssh installed.
perhaps meterpreter will make it work. (UPDATE; has not worked.)
Do you know any way to fool the system and make the input device tty? (solution: stty on sh shell)
having a hard time finding which application is vulnerable on PC-FILESRV01. Any suggestions?
I assume you've used python pty;pty.spawn to upgrade your shell?
I thought it worked after doing that
ye I did, but you also had to run stty. and if it was a bash shell it gives a error after stty command, so i tried sh
Looking through my notes I had a meterpreter session and dropped into the shell to run the breakout. How have you got your shell?
@minor flax did you ever find a way to locate vulnerable APP on PC-FILE endpoint?
I identified the program but the scheduled task wasn't there. I had to use the print nightmare priv esc. Then when I was admin I ran through the tasks and added the scheduled task
Yup. I was about 2 seconds from doing that exact same thing. I figured I would give it a chance and find the vuln app. I'll try your way. Thanks!
No worries. Was super frustrating to be honest. I raised it in the room bugs channel but nothing
You mind if I DM you?
I used a netcat listener to get the shell, then I ran sh and stabilized the shell. I also tried the meterpreter method, but it wasn't working, not sure why.
Sure thing
Super frustrating! Not sure what's happened there
The good thing is that it's working right now 🙂
Oh brill. What was the fix?
Stabilizing sh shell
Like I said here.
Ahhh cool. Odd though!
Anyone got problem with holo network ?

Well, yeah.
It says dangerous programs
Mimikatz is a hacking tool
I find quite funny how people report the github repository, and tag it as a malware. Just because its a hacking tool doesn't mean its going to be used in ilegal or malicious ways. Lol
is holo-network bugged or is it just me? I tried a couple of things but I might just be tired lol
At what point?
hey I'm not able to get the DC to connect to ntlmrelayx, i have admin access to it and set up the port forward on meterpreter ... no errors but for some reason, it won't send the hash
I am having trouble with initial recon
I guess I am supposed to do the following but
Pulling out the IP is not working for me. I have network set as 10.200.119.0/24
Is the address 10.200.119.30 supposed to be ping-able?
I have the same issue with this holo network, its a pain
Is there any admin on this channel?
.NET 3.2 for Covenant ,
.NET 4.7.2 for ThreatCheck/DefenderCheck
.NET 6.0 default microsoft page
once this network finishes i shall become a .NET developer
No it's not there is only I think one box ping able initially
What you mean? becoming a .net developer
I scanned the whole /24 and the IP come filtered 10.200.119.0/24
@summer flame can you check your ip routing table (cmd: ip route) and see if there is a route to 10.200 .119.0/24
if you can then just reset the room it should be working after that
I can't evil-winrm with the hash/password access to the PC-FILESERV
crackmapexec found it with winrm extenson , but not smb , and i scanned with nmap , smb and rdp port are open , but no response . anyone have a solution ?
i had to install 3 version of .NET to finish the AV evasion part of the network 🙂
did u try it with socks proxy
i used rdp to login to the fileserv
used it with socks
sshuttle , and chisel
i will check socat i guess
by the way L-SRV01 is vulnerable to Pwnkit
Chisel or sshuttle should be more than enough
Make sure in your rdp client u specify socks proxy
I don't think u need to try socat
it's fixed , thanks
so no matter what i do I can't get holo to kick back a shell. I know i'm doing it right because i've had shell before but it won't give me one now. not sure what to do I've tried
- attack box - no luck
2.Openvpn - No luck
3.resetting server - No luck
4.resetting room - no luck
nvm solved it
care to be nice and state what you did to solve it for future souls stumbling in a similar problem???
lol yeah it was me just being dumb. I was using the attackbox listed IP and when i checked ifconfig i found it was running the other ip i had and it worked. so i'm betting the reset of the room is what did it because it fixed the ip addreses that were listing with the internal ip on the main netowkr infographic. (hope that helps)
same problem here !! ; i cant evil-winrm into PC-FILESERV !! ; you got any solution ?
Am I missing something or is it nowhere stated that the third octet ("x") is meant to be the third octet of the L-SRV01 and DC-SRV01 machines?
use rdp , evil-winrm still doesn't work for me .
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 192.168.100.1 port 8080: Connection refused
anyone can help on this...
nvm got it
one thing, S-SRV01 with proxy-chains through chisel is very slow, any way to make it faster?
hi
Hi, HOLO guides say: nmap -sV -sC -p- -v 10.200.x.0/24
My network is: Internal Virtual IP Address 10.50.112.163
Not sure what should I scan... ? What should I type instead of 'x'?
VPN Server Name Hololive
Server Status
Connected
Internal Virtual IP Address 10.50.112.163
One of the tasks should tell you what your scope is. The VPN subnet is different from the target network.
task? I'm not seeing it..
yes
Read through the first few tasks carefully. Also it should show you an IP address on the network topology screen-area-thing
yes, on the screenshot I can see but I was not sure if it is just static screenshot 🙂 I'll try
I don't think it is correct. I have one server found ..
I am trying my subnet now but oh god, it is 15 minutes and still scanning..
It's a big scan that you're doing. -p- -sC -sV is a lot.
Try doing a small scan to identify the up hosts. A ping sweep or top 10 ports. Then a sS then a full port scan. Then script scan the specific ports that are up. Otherwise everything will take you ages and won't let you do anything while that one giant scan is running.
Anyone else having issues logging into the dashboard on the admin instance?
I get the login prompt but after submitting the username/password, it just hangs
clear cache + retry!
thanks @wind bobcat! I should be ashamed...

Hey, so i've got through to rdp on PC-FILESRV01 and i'm trying to do the dll hijack, but even if i copy the executable to an executable permission directory, and the dll in the same folder, I find that my msfvenom dll doesnt connect back to my host, and there doesnt appear to be a scheduled task or service that references it so i don't understand why its not triggering for an admin user or for the low priv user
im in the container machine ,am i supposed to be able to connect to the sql data base in 100.1 or not ?
Yes you should be. Did you check for creds in the web server files?
yes i already answered the questions so they should be correct
i try to connect with this commands but no respond " mysql -u **** -p -h 192.....1
is it right ?
Yeah, it looks correct
What are you getting as the error?
Cannot connect, or Wrong password or anything else
Oh, perhaps because of your shell.
Try to get a stabilized reverse shell
No, if not specified the default 3306 is used.
You are connected!!
hello guys! i am stuck at obfuscating the payload. can anyone help me with this ? thank in advance.
Is this network down? I'm unable to ping or reach anything here?
no bro. the network is up
Weird, I'm connected with holo vpn but unable to reach anythin. I tried from attack box as well, same thing there.
same issue since yestarday ,i waited for reset and still ,also the attack box ping no respond
i'm now attacking and the network is fine
Hey guys, got a question around shell stabalisation. I did ask this in #general but no reply and as I'm on having this issue on holo network I thought I'd try my luck here too...
Whenever I try to get a stable shell I can never seem to get the special characters working. My user and root both have /usr/bin/zsh set as their shell in /etc/passwd so I tried chsh to /bin/bash for both but that didn't help. Tried running /bin/bash before starting the whole process but that didn't help. Commands I'm using seem to be standard i.e.
python3 -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
CTRL+Z
stty raw -echo; fg; export SHELL=/bin/bash; export TERM=xterm-256color; stty rows 29 columns 116; reset
So I get a shell back and its aligned OK but TAB completion and cursor keys for history etc don't work. Can't seem to find the answer on google so hoping someone can point me in the right direction
2 days passed and still cant ping the machine
yeah, I'm having issues on and off too
I think people are ignoring the warning about thread counts
the problem is ,other rooms are fine ,only this network im not able to connect to it
You are connected OK. Like I say, under task 10 people are warned that the machine will go unresponsive if they don't reduce the thread count on gobuster when fuzzing. Too many people fuzzing without reducing the thread count must be killing the machine
maybe not, I get a ping reply
ahh ,but even after reset immediately i tried to ping ,samething
ip is the same or changed ,for the machine 192.168.100.100 ?
I can ping it and hit the admin.holo.live login page but can't log in. It just hangs
10.200.109.33
You must be ahead of me
i meant docker machine " L-SRV02 "
looking at the map, the connection goes via L-SRV01 which is fecked at the moment so I'm not surprised you can't access 02
:S
maybe an admin can see who is hitting the box hardest and have a quiet word with them but otherwise I guess we do another room for now
im waiting for admin to check and help ,but been waiting for 2 days
is there anyone to DM ?
Sorry, I don't know :/
I've been stuck on my little issue for a few daaaaaays and what you're experiencing has been a recurring issue for me
So I just did:
python3 -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
CTRL+Z
stty raw -echo; fg;
without setting the environment variables and now TAB completion and history are working!! Would like to know how/why but I guess I should just be glad its working
I think the way bash is interpreting that is export the environment variables on your host and not on the victim machine
I've never done that before, always
pythons -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
ctrl+z
stty raw -echo;fg
export TERM=xterm
Sorry but it seems like we're doing the same thing, aren't we?
interestingly I just had to reconnect and first time I couldn't TAB or get history. Connected again without the space between "pty; pty" and its now working
don't think I changed anything else
Nah its got nothing to do with the space
this time I was able to get everything just with:
python3 -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
ctrl+Z
stty raw -echo; fg
stty rows 29 columns 116
I didn't even need to set the environment variables
so I dunno what is going on
difference being the stty raw -echo;fg;stty rows 29 columns 116
vs
stty raw -echo;fg
<enter>
export term=...
<enter>
.....
<enter>
last night, i got the same problem too, after someone resetting the network. Now it works fine
Sorry maybe I'm being a bit stupid...
So I am running:
stty raw -echo; fg
<enter>
export term=xterm
<enter>
stty rows 29 columns 116
<enter>
but you're saying it should be:
stty raw -echo; fg; export term=xterm
<enter>
stty rows 29 columns 116
<enter>
either seems to work fine now
I have made it fail by using python instead of python3 or by not running nc with sudo but in the cases the result is that it just hangs completely. I can't seem to make it behave the way it was before i.e. no tab completion and history now which is odd because that was the result before no matter what I tried
scratch that, its not hanging when I don't run nc with sudo
no env vars are needing to be set at all
on the victim I mean
actually new lines work better with the TERM var set
People reading this are probably thinking "why does he keep going on about this?!" 
its simply that I was getting the same result for daaaaaays and now its just working as it should and I'm not doing anything different so I'm just curious to know what it could have been
anyway, I'm moving on! I'll shut up about it now

Yes it is. I am trying to use 16001 as a port to listen to reverse connection and forward to 4444, it is a wreath machine I am asking in general how do we do this for SSH
Sorry bud, not sure myself. If its not in a config file, I guess its the command you're using that limits it to localhost
Please don't ask the same question over multiple channels
got it
completed wreath so I guess I must have done it at some point but I can't remember :/
guys , i am facing the problems on dll hijacking. Can anyone help me with this? I can't even run proc monitor.
Hey all, curious if things are working properly with the network at the moment? Seems to be broken but please correct me if I'm wrong.
Had a team go through it and find that there were some issues across everyones experience. From Applocker disabling to NTLM.
the only thing I'm aware of being broken at the moment is DLL hijacking
how did you proceed, do we need to run kavremover.exe by ourself and wait for reverse connnection?
TL:Dr print nightmare
running karemover yourself will result in a session from your current user
hello i can't even remote desktop on .30 machine. I restart it for ntlmrelayx and it failed and then now it does not work
@crude jewel may be depend on your connection ... can u ping this machine?
I already have a session as an administrator on SRV02, but in THM's pivot graph, I can't see it as compromised machine.
When you're asking for a reset, you need to specify what instance you're on.
The third octet of the machine IPs
10.200.95.x
previously, it was not possible to compromise s-srv02, due to a recent update, that was patched. You can now compromise it.
The flag submission to update the network map was not likely updated
its been a week ,and im still not able to ping the L-SRV02 yet through the attack box or either my pc ,i sent an email to support email ,but unfortunately it passed the 3 WD with no respond
any problems with the network? i lost connection from one moment to the other to L-SRV01
L-SRV01 seems to be down, can anybody from the Staff please have a look at it?
Instance is the 10.200.107
we are already only one reset vote away
Reset is done, thx to whoever 👍
i cant escape my privileges for some reason, when i start the docker container it fails
nvm i got it
allo all. does the final ntlm relay thing still work?
all i get is this
thats using meterpreter to port forward off a nt authority/system session, and impacket 9.22
if you run socks, do you see
Protocol Target Username AdminStatus Port
SMB 10.200.x.30 HOLOLIVE/SRV-ADM TRUE 445
er, let me try. just closed it briefly
could it be that the attack box needs to be able to reach 10.200.107.30?
yes thats in the solutions. hmm
oof that was a tangled web of proxy chains and the like haha. i did the entire room with a tool a colleague of mine made, sort of super chisel: https://github.com/NHAS/reverse_ssh
ended up using proxychains ntlmrelayx.py over a ssh socks proxy through to the pc file serv machine, in order to allow it to attack 10.200.x.30
started the network 20 minutes ago, still cannot reach 10.200.111.33 - is there anything I could do except for waiting for others to vote for reset?
@midnight condor wanna vc?
sure
same issue, cannot connect to any host in any way
the docker machine cannot be pinged as ICMP is being answered on L-SRV01
not Lsrv01
you are able to ping Lsrv02 - docker machine
if the network works with u
its NATed..
holo-vpn is up though (and the network is running)
-> the network bridge cannot connect to the holo-network after a fresh reset
Is there anything I can do about L-SRV01 crashing?
I cant access it anymore for some reason
I can't access admin.holo.live idk if that has anything to do with it
but I can access dev.holo.live and www.holo.live
Hi there. Did clearing the cache worked for you? I can see the 'valid' response in Burp but it just hangs. Tried chrome & mozilla. Even the AttackBox in thm. Thanks in advnace.

Hi All, is there any Network Security expert?
I started doing Holo. During the first enumeration, the machine has only port 22 open and no web server running.
reset the network
This channel is dedicated to the Holo network on tryhackme - if you'd like to discuss network security in general then please use #infosec-general
Is there any way to download Holo Network image? The network is unstable
No.
The network should not be unstable, check your VPN connection.
There is some un-stability atleast for 33. gobuster shows no results tried with threads set at 4. many times only 1 port is open.
I was getting the same issue.
in that the network is being unstable. However - my issue was with the dashboard whereby clearing browser cache seemed to resolve the issue. Perhaps this knowledge may help you @mental lichen

Hey guys webserver port 80 is not opened at all

can someone help me please...trying to set up a meterpreter shell at PC-FILESRV01 but not getting a call back
can someone go in vc for a chat about it?
been googling for hours
right...need help with the NTLM relay attack
im 95% of the way there...help me root this damn network plz
i'll be on 2pm UTC
can anyone give me any tips for obfuscating a grunt to bypass windows defender
I alr have the amsi bypass but can't get the grunt past defender
@shadow quest if ur free could u help me since ur alr past the stage im on?
for some reason everytime I try to change code of one of the grunt templates covenant just stops working.
@fast sparrow The grunt is pretty outdated and has a lot of signatures, obfuscating it in 2022 is just too much effort imo. What worked for me was making a obfuscated powershell reverse shell script. It did the work flawlessly
Thanks a lot
I'll try with a different C2 like Empire and use a powershell laucher or whatever and see if that works, so nah im good.
Sorry to ping you, but I have one last question. Is it necessary for me to use a C2, or will I be fine without one?
Hey, did you manage to get the relay working? I tried it like 7 times and I never got any connection
got it working...but damnnnn its so hard to 😦
@shadow quest Ayye congrats my dude
Yeah, still didn't manage to get it working
right...wanna vc?
Sure
small study room?
+rep @shadow quest ty dude
Gave +1 Rep to @shadow quest
np 🙂
Ayo can u also tell me how to do it for when I get to that part
pls
lmao idk have to get stuck on it
i only got 5 days left for my vip sub so gotta hurry to finish this yk
@shadow quest got DC 
niceeee
We basically juggled multiple proxychains at the same time instead of shuttle
Shits weird
More or less
I kinda forgot midway but I think I figured out what you did
I'm still kinda confused
But it worked
So I'm happy
im still stuck on makin a damn script to actually get me a foothold
i prob sound like a script kiddie rn but can I see the php payload u used
actually nvm
I think Ik a way
Good luck
If you're getting close to the end of your sub you can ping me and I'll send u the payload I used
But I believe in u
U got this!

thanks!
so far I have my powershell script that gives me a connections and bypasses av
now I just need to see if it works
on the network (it works les go)
.109 network - someone has filled up all space on the first box somehow which means the sql file write totally fails 
I havent even touched the domain controller
but apparently I just rooted it
I would send a ss but cant
Im on the NTLM relay section, specifically task 46 where you have to run responder, but it isn't working because port 53 is already taken.
I've tried killing the process running it but it doesn't change anything.
I don't want to mess up my VM in case it happens to be important, so if anyone could help me that'd be n o i c e
nvm I'll just go on without it
Am i too dumb? I connected to the holo-vpn but the webserver isn´t reachable in my subnet (10.200.111.0/24). The only system is the 10.200.111.250
vpn connection is up and running.
Have the same problem on 10.200.111.0/24, I hope a reset will fix it.
unfortunately they´re only 2/5 resets :/
Yeah, we can add one each every hour 😄
I can again at around 22h
didn´t know that 🙂 only 1 vote left 🙂
Does it work again? 🙂
I´m working on Wreath at the moment (Task 28) will give it a try later.
same for me even after reset, gave up on holo for that
Hi, i am doing Holo live, i have to the admin password (from supersecretdir), but its not working to admin portal... can you please help to fix it...
hello guys
same to me
the lab reset did work for me...
Is this an error in my syntax, or is the machine borked?
elliamy@pop-os:~/Downloads$ gobuster vhost -u holo.live -w subdomains-top1million-110000.txt
2022/04/21 20:40:44 [!] 2 errors occurred:
* WordList (-w): Must be specified (use -w - for stdin)
* Url/Domain (-u): Must be specified
also tried with the http:// infront of the url
I think you've got an ancient version of gobuster
Did you install it with apt?
yup
That is a syntax error, it can't be an error with the remote machine
Install it from github
Ah, will do
Or use Kali for up to date security tools
Cheers, didn't realise the apt version was so out of date
Apt takes it's packages from your distro's repositories or other repos that you add
The problem is with those repos, not apt itself
Packages are different between Kali, Debian, Ubuntu, PopOS, even though they all use apt
Yeah, been trying to keep on top of it, but clearly messed it up there. I have Pop as I'm doing a physics degree and it works well for that, and win11. Maybe I need to learn how to Tri-boot for Kali
Make a VM
Thanks!
Hi,
I think Holo network is down (and as no one is using it so no one try to reset it ?)
I cannot ping while being connected to the VPN or on attack box (none of the (visible) machines reply).
Is it possible to reset it without waiting 5 hours ? (1 vote per hour if I'm the only one here)
Thanks !
(PS : does not ping even after > 15 minutes and not really urgent since I probably won't have the time to continue tonight, just saying in case someone wants to do it)
You can't be connected from both the attackbox and your parrot at the same time
The VPNs will conflict as your account only has one IP
Well yeah but I tried at first with the VPN and it did not work, then I tried with the attack box
I'm going to try with the attack box only, might be a issue from my vpn
Just tried with only the attack box (no vpn), does not ping neither
Did you try the initial machine? Windows machines often don't respond to pings
In fact, you know one machine is running a webserver. I'd suggest trying to interact with that
Well I initially tried to ping because the web server did not respond, but now it seems to work so... my bad 😦
Sorry
guess I'm dumb 🙂
Hello I have a similar problem, I am in the initial recon phase, I know the ip of the web server but it doesn't respond to anything, I have tried ping, nmap, browser, curl, nmap with -Pn and still nothing
I am connected to vpn also
I am stuck at this problem since yesterday
If anyone could help I would really appreciate it
Which room?
Which room are you doing?
Holo, that's why I sent it here
Sorry, I clicked in the channel and didn't notice.
it's ok
does anyone know why isn't it working?
Well done ya muppet...
Hi all, hoping someone can help as I've been stuck on this for hours. On my attacking machine I have no issue with chisel, however on the remote machine I keep on receiving the following error:
./chisel: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by ./chisel)
I'm up to Task 23 and cannot proceed any further, any help is appreciated.
Try it with a static chisel binary.
How would one go about that? Fairly new to a bit of this stuff and my brain is fried after battling with it so long today
You can download it from the official github releases. https://github.com/jpillora/chisel/releases
Perfect example of why it's always good to take a break and sleep on these things! You're a champion, many thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Gave +1 Rep to @timid current
If you're asking people to help reset the network, you need to specify what network instance you're on
Anything wrong with the network got booted off from my shell. Dropped and reconnected the VPN still unable to see any hosts.
Remember there's several instances
There is something wrong with this network. Every time I go to this room shows that the network is up even though I didn’t start it. And now I am not able to connect to the host 10.200.111.33
I'm going to struggle explaining this, so please be patient. Once I escape the docker container and get www-data on L-SRV01, there is a bash error bash: cannot set terminal process group (2041): Inappropriate ioctl for device bash: no job control in this shell which i believe is whats causing the privEsc to root to fail. I'm following the tips and guide in TryHackMe so I'm attempting to abuse the privEsc it suggests. The session I have in the docker container is stabilized like the guide suggests, with bash. I'm having a hard time even wrapping my head around the connection from the Remote host w/container and how its able to connect back to me if they aren't on the same subnet. I see that the shell relies on command injection with curl.
There's a lot of stuff like that in the room since stuff was moved around a lot in the editing from my understanding. Tasks 1-8 are initial setup tasks, everything onward is in order.

Is anyone else having pivot issues in the 112 instance? I think it might need reset
the remote webservers don't finish loading
same here dude
once i login on the admin panel . the server hangs on the redirection phase
Hi guys
when i solve the holo i get access to 10.200.110.35
but After resting the same credentials didn't work so i can't access the machine
any one faced this problem
I've had some success with deleting the holo.live cookie
@blazing cedar Great advice
Hey Guys, does the L-SRV01 respond to ICMP by any chance
L-SRV01 - crashed, need one more vote to reset the machine
Please specify what network you're on if you're asking for a reset
There's several instances of holo, each with totally separate networks
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the AV evasion on this network will get easier the older this network gets since Defender can't pull new signatures/updates from the internet.
iirc the DumpStack.log trick that mr.d0x tweeted a while back worked to get past an initial static scan in this network months later
@unreal hemlock man me too hahaha thanks for recommending a room for it, legendary for that
Gave +1 Rep to @unreal hemlock
Can a mod or whomever restart the 10.200.19 instance. The network stopped, i started it up again but its been 24min and the .33 machine never came back online
same happen to me right now
Anyone having issues spawning a tty shell ... I run the python one liner & it does nothing no responce/change? I have never encountered this issue before?
I'm on hololive task 14 ..... I'm not sure with this machine what's going on It won't give me a reading when I tried to fuzz it, it also didn't want to give anything on dir busting. I just got in through some trial & error. So for what ever reason it's not doing things it should.... Now I'm at the part of getting the tty ...I did get a net cat shell and I could load up linpeas to do a scan but it won't take the python one liner. I also tried the socat & that have way works... Showing that the port is being used but won't give me a shell
So I got a dimb shell with nc but It doesn't want to respond to the python script for me to continue getting a stable shell
I have a screenshot for you, but I have never posted one on this platform before. Just getting that figured out

can we get a reset on 10.200.112.0/24? the S-SRV01 machine is completely borked (at least for me it is) : (
it does? hmm.. i'll check it again. perhaps it's a problem with sshuttle
i'll try autoroute + socks server instead, thank you! : )
sshuttle -r user@$ip x.x.x.x/24 -D
although now that i think about i, i think i may have used the wrong ip for the pivot since i export ip’s with bash so it could’ve been pointed to the container LOL i’ll double check that just to make sure
solved! it was a thing with sshuttle, i don't typically use it so i went back to the msf way of pivoting and everything's working normally. thank you for the help tho! : )
same! 😈
It looks like getting an RCE in task 15 doesn't work. Signin with credentials or other access to the dxxxxbxxxx.php file gets redirected.
back to index.php
Now when scanning the box, it only has port 22 open..
Gave +1 Rep to @unreal hemlock
no!! XD not at all haha i'm very careful to not barrage packets especially when proxychains are in use since they can be pretty brittle. I've noticed it as well, I think it's just people who are scanning the host or a lot of people accessing a specific resource at once : )
dont worry! you'll get there! ik i said i was gonna root this today as well but i havent even opened a terminal yet. but we'll see what happens : -}

Hi Guys, can anyone help me with AV evasion section. I am able to bypass AMSI but I am facing issues with AV.
Yes. I was following rasta mouse blog. I generated a binary from covenant and with the help of threat checker, i was iteratively removing all the bad bytes but at later point, the output of threat checker was very vague and I couldn't figure out whats going on. It was 3 am in the morning so I shut down everything because I was frustrated. At the moment I am going through BCSecurity 's webinar on evasion. I hope it has something to offer. I was thinking instead of using a C2 agent, I will obfuscate a powershell reverse shell combined with amsi bypass. What do you think? Any suggestions?
Yeah Even I am doing everything on win 11 dev machine. I was also thinking of using some other c2 like empire which I learned in throwback network. So what you are saying is, if I am able to bypass Amsi, then there is no need to obfuscate my powershell reverse shell, but will defender not catch it?
I think it makes sense, as long as I am running everything on memory, AV won't catch it. And when I get admin privileges I will immediately turn off real time monitoring as it is a headache lol
Yeah sorry. Makes sense. I won't do it.
Anyways thanks for the heads up man. Really appreciate it.
Yo, what to do if someone changed to way for the RCE?
Reset the network?
seems im alone 😛
You can add a reset vote every hour.
cool, thanks
Can anyone help me with the ntlm relay section? My ntlmrelayx.py is not receiving any smb connections. I have tried to replicate the steps numerous times but no luck. I even downgraded impacket to 0.9.19 using pimpmykali, but still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
same here
Use proxychains along with ntlmrelayx.py
Hey everyone
Idk why my proxychain not working
Its showing connected but whenever i try to run nmap or check if machine is accessible or not it shows host seems down
Yeah that i know but simple nmap scan also not working
https://nmap.org/book/man-host-discovery.html this will be useful
Its probably dumb question to ask but
Why we bypass amsi rather then just connecting it with rdp and turning off the windows defender
Nope
O got it
So in oscp we need to bypass that too?
IIRC OSCP AV Evasion is very simple in comparison
Is it necessary to learn c2 framework for oscp ad
nope. i did the ad part completely without any c2 framework.
The ad which is there in holo and the ad comes in oscp exam as compared to holo is it difficult?
i'd say, that in my case, the ad in holo asks more of you than the ad in the oscp. i found the oscp ad part easier but that's just me and it's different for everyone
No thats probably all are saying that holo ad part is overkill for oscp
aaaand rooted! fun network, i definitely learned a lot from this room
any idea how to bypass the amsi and do a reverse shell to windows with ip address x.x.x.31? I'm following the steps of tryhackme but it doesn't work
Is the HTTP server on L-SRV01 down?
Can someone please hit the reset? Been waiting for quite a while...
Remember there are several instances of the network.
If you're asking for a reset, you need to say what instance you're on.
Anybody faced the port forwarding issue in task 47? I have set up everything as expected (turned off services on PC-FILESRV01, checked that 445 was closed, started ntlmrelay.py-0.9.22 prior executing portfwd, netstat shows that port 445 is owned by my payload on PC-FILESRV01, on kali port 445 is owned by ntmlrelayx.py and I use shuttle) and I cannot get SMB traffic redirected to ntlmrelayx. PC-FILESRV01 receives connections from S-SRV02 (confirmed by wireshark) but they are not routed to port 445 opened on kali by ntlmrelayx.py. I even managed to reset the network but it did not help. Anybody faced such issue? It seems to be related to MSF.
Can anyone help , I got SYStem on PC-FILESERVER01 but i made a huge mistake while doing the task 47 , I sent the shutdown /r command in meterpreter instead of reboot . I cant wait for 4 hrs to reset network every once in an hour . My network is 10.200.95.33 [DC-SRV01]
shutdown /r reboots your system only. It does not power it off.
I guess in meterpreter if we write shutdown /r it sends the shutdown comand only , i googled and found that we need to type reboot in meterpreter for rebooting
I see. I did not know that.
Can anyone help in last task , got system , did port forwarding , no traffic comming in my ntlmrelayx.py
I have the same problem.
Anyone not able to reach the Holo boxes?
Yeah, realised this soon after asking lol
Been working on Holo throughout the day and I didn't notice the timer run out, since starting it back up again, I've not been able to do anything, can't load a page, ping...nothing
similar problem hear, after switching off smb on fileserver, i am unable to reconnect to it....(xfreerdp/kali) ... 😕
hey, what knowledge do i need to have in order to start with holo?
or is there any recommended rooms that i should complete before?
I'd do wreath first at the very least
Is 10.200.x.0/24 where x is typo or intended
Each instance of the network has a different value there
Will it be same as dc in the picture above (room)
Hello everyone, I am having trouble reaching the network, it shows that it's started but I launched the nmap scan and I got nothing
Anyone doing holo here
Pls let me know if you are able to login as it seems broken now
Can anyone please help me to reset only one vote required.
It seems the network is broken.
Remember there are many many instances, specify which one that you are on when asking for a reset
You can add a vote to reset every hour
The network crashed again for me, I need 4 more people to vote on the reset
or you can vote on the reset multiple times with the time delay between each vote
I didnt know that was a possibility, I will do that tomorrow. Thanks for the info
Gave +1 Rep to @iron galleon
Same here my network crashed , mistakenly closed the reverse shell terminal😩
anyone in 111 need 2 more votes
Also voted for reset. Only one vote need to reset.
just so you know there are multiple holo subnets which could need resets
a quick question , Im on dll hijacking task , and ive done everything accordingly , but scheduled tasks are not showing the particular application which we are looking to hijack. Been running the listner for 5 mins now but no connection yet , Any suggestions ? I looked over the internet but I wanna know what wrong Im doin since i followed the path from THM only
Hello, at the moment, I can ping the linux web server but I can't access the admin.holo.live dashboard. This happens to me multiple times, and I always have to wait for the network to stop (due to inactivity)
This is really annoying, I have been stuck at the same step for two days now for this exact reason
Same here, its been 2 days
I had gained initial foothold and now the port is closed -,-
Welcome to the team. I had same issue and used other vulnerability to get NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.
so were you able to do anything related to NTLMrelay ??? or im the only one banging my head on that topic , coz I did go through other things but neither port forwarding nor the hijacking thing worked for me
Is someone bruteforcing the webserver? If so could you decrease the threads?
10.200.95.33
Landing page is working fine, but authenticated resources like /dashboard.php is not working
It did not work for me at all.
same for me. The scheduled task mentioned in the task description simply does not exist 😄 even after resetting the network. But, fortunately, there is another way to elevate privileges
I lost access to public IP 10.200.95.33, how can I execute shell again and try lateral movement and breakout?
nmap -sn 10.200.0.0/16 --min-rate 2000
Nmap done: 65536 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 139.66 seconds
Regened ovpn config -,-
nvm fixed for now
Hi can't login in the dashboard anymore, anyone else with the same problem?
hello fellow hackers
anyone has trouble pivoting through the network
I mainly use sshuttle for pivoting
tried different commands with different parameters but still can't reach the internal network
Ok chisel doesn't do either
really great room ,i have learnt a lot of new things
really grateful guys ❤️
can we still submit our reports for it ?
how do i install chisel on the target machine?
I'm pretty sure you don't install chisel. You compile it (on your attack machine) and then ship the binary there. You can then execute it on the target machine.
Ok thanks
My pings and nmap scans are getting rejected when I try to recon the network
OVPN is connected
!vpnscript
just to be sure it is not the vpn being the problem
Are you a free user?
Holo is a sub only room ( unless it's changed) and has it's own VPN script to download.
Im a sub. Trying to connect from my OSX, i’ll try the script on my kali machine later
I had the same issue earlier.
I didn’t. I re-downloaded the vpn a few times and that didn’t fix it
Is anyone here to help HOLO NTML Relay?
I disabled netlogon on 10.200.XXX.35 and restart.
but now I cannot login or RDP to this machine.
Any idea on this step please?
I have the same issue as @woven quiver , machines seem to be down, (I moved to another room, so its not the vpn)
Thanks for your answer.... you are absolutely right ! Sorry for the inconvenience

It worked yesterday so I’d guess the machines were down for when I tried
It's been half and hour
I have a Q about holo. Is there a dns server i should be pointing at so I can resolve www.holo.live?
Your hosts file
ok cool thats what i was thinking, just wanted to confirm I was supposed to use some other dns. thanks!
or is not something actively being looked at?
Unable to root the DC or even attempt to due to some sort of issue with how the environment is setup. I believe it's a DNS issue. Was the DC purposely configured to prevent exploits such as Sam the admin or ADCS?
If the purpose of this room was for pivoting then someone should have a closer look at how ntlm relay attack is working. Disabling lan man services on PC FileSVR breaks any means of getting a call back if you don't lay some sort of startup persistent to call back once you reboot.
Even using KrbRelayUp with valid low priv user account doesn't work. Literally nothing works when trying to root or even gain a shell on the DC.
Is it me or why can't I fuzz for different vhosts when I try to fuzz holo.live?
tried both gobuster and wfuzz
I tried guessing admin and dev and they were both correct
why didnt the fuzzers find them?
anyone else having problems accessing the webserver on the .107 subnet?
In the final tasks, is the ntlm relay working, (10.200.107.30) I think I've got the setup right but can't receive anything with ntlmrelayx
Yeh, they say to use shuttle as its more stable or something and I've used it but still nothing
I think, I've read in here that the ntlm relay was broken but wanted to confirm if others could get it to work
oh noes not broken network stuffs.... as shadow wants to do this eventually
Well, it's hellish to setup correctly then if it's working
is there anyway the L-SRV01 machine can be rebooted ? ... the admin panel isn't working for me ... it's stuck here with no response
if you specify the domain ip, people could vote for resets :)
10.200.155.33 ... already 4/5 requesting reset ... we only need one lol
it is time to shine chosen one
It’s doing the same for me now
I was signed into it earlier and now when I login it just spins
10.200.110.30
I’ve even rebooted my machine just to make sure. Admin page loads but won’t let you login
2 more resets needed unless an admin or someone can go ahead and reboot L-SRV01
you can vote for more resets every half an hour or so
I think it’s ever hour. I’ve done 2 of the 3….
i.e if shadow recalls correctly you your self can reset the network given enough time
ah okay
Wish there was a better way of catching these machines freezing
Sucks having to wait
1 more!!!
I do have a question about task 13. I saw the rce in the source code first but when testing with wfuzz it won’t find it and i think it’s because to get to dashboard.php you need to be signed into the admin panel.
