Access

Tried every possible variation of the ru*** command without any luck. I think that something is messed up with my syntax, but can’t think of any other way anymore, maybe some good soul can help me with some tip?

Yay, finally rooted.
Awesome machine @egre55 - I did learn a lot here. I must admit it was also equally frustrating as well as fun.

Head needs a rest now.

Can someone send me a PM? I’m almost positive my r**** command is correct but I’m turning up nothing.

My first approach for getting root.txt was to play with file permissions and while I was able to give the user account all file privileges (and ownership) of root.txt, I still wasn’t able to read it. I eventually found a way around it and got the information from the file, but could someone point me to a source that would explain why reading was not possible when seemingly one had all the permissions? I thought I had fixed UAC registry entry as well. A later experiment with reverse shell seemed to be bit more straightforward approach for this, though :slight_smile:

finally managed to get root, thanks @joesch for the hint!

Hello everyone I need help, I have the zip and the damaged file in c. someone can give me clues what to do next.
P.S. Excuse me for my bad English.

I’m stuck after User. Found some command syntax’s in a certain directory, but haven’t really found anything that works or useful. If anyone can give me any tips on priv escalation or what to look for. Haven’t been able to escalate even to System rights.

Edit: so I know my r**** command is working, I can see I get an admin command prompt open with that. Can’t figure out for the life of me how to migrate to that process or if that’s possible?

Rooted, user is about enumeration and root is enumeration+syntax, google and running commands on a windows box to see what they do helps.

Feel free to contact me for help.

A hugely frustrating box! Especially root.txt. I had at one point a reverse shell with system but couldn’t get root.txt. Eventually a reset and a simple command got me root.txt. Can’t quite figure why as system I kept getting access denied.

I give up with the root flag on this. Got /r**** /s******* syntax working once, whilst trying to read the file, box gets reset. Now everything I tried before doesn’t work at all…

Rooted … \n/ … Need help, PM me :slight_smile:

may i take help? please pm.

I’ve been struggling with root for the past few hours. I’ve been running “the command”, and including the “lazy admin” part, but I’m not even sure which executable I should be using or what my overall goal for the command is. I can get the command to send back a password prompt, but I don’t have the password. Any and all help is appreciated.

Well that was a learning experience… Easy user access but struggled a lot with the syntax for commands while gaining root.

please pm me for privesc as i dont have any knowledge on it.

Okey,

i hope someone can help me with this.

so i got the files via the f******

but i cannot use the B*****.m*****

i tried using a Tool, but that keeps giving me the EOF error, can someone help me or just pm me a screenshot of the file

thanks a lot!

Looking to learn a lesson here. For PE, how did you know to use R**? I take it the Z** was a rabbit hole?

could anybody pm me for root? using ru*** to try something but cant seem to get syntax right. any help?

Read up on the command and different options under it , once you find out what the syntax is then try it out on a windows machine you have access to till you figure out how it should look like to accomplish what you need it to do. Once it works there , drop it on the box !

You’re getting your B*****.m** in a wrong way. Check what the output of the process says, there’s a warning there. Google how to solve it.
