@OldManWinter I guess we should try harder. Same situation
ok, so far so good. Got a shell, found the b*** file. But I’m too dumb to figure out how to replace what with what. Any hints?
update: got root directly. I still have no idea how to solve the stego part…
it says stego, google stego!
Got root.txt
There is unintended way to get the both the flags I think. But anyway if anyone need hint PM me. Thanks for the hints in the thread.
Got root, don’t think I ever came across the b
file everyone is talking about though.
Hint: The file I used is not nested 100 layers deep in some obscure subdirectory. Went back to my popular enum script
results and it was in there, I simply missed it because it didn’t stand out to me. Googling the file path and name yielded 0 relevant results, thus missing from typical Linux boxes and an excellent candidate for a closer look based on hints earlier in this thread.
Be --one with the root. That’s all I’m going to say.
this is so strange…I used to connect to a service to upload ie script and now that service does not accept previous file type…Trying to access root but need that service…when I test it with a jpg it works fine but when I try to use another file type then it doesn’t accept it anymore…
Finally got root. For those who got the initial foothold / user i**d without using msf, it would be a great help for me to learn how you guys did it.
can someone drop some hints in PM
Can someone PM hint for Root, really stuck, not sure what to look for
Hi, this is first of a kind box for me, can I get some help or hints like on how to get forward. Have been stuck in the scanning part where I found what ports it have but cant get forward.
I’m a beginner at this and the main page hints at there being an I** service. It doesn’t show up with nmap and I’m unable to connect to it. I just want to confirm that this isn’t the way I’m supposed to get in right?

You can chat with this VM
Ah, thanks. I’m going to assume I’m connecting to it wrong then.
This one was fun, not terribly difficult.

Could I get some help getting off the ground? I looked into r** and I** and didn’t find anything helpful. Now I’m just kinda stuck.

Have you gotten onto the server somehow yet? That’s step one :).
Finally got root! First one and now let’s go for other HTB machines
Learnt a lot. The hint is the same as the other, enum, enum, enum, something seems legit, but is it?
Got a low priv shell, but cant seem to find a way to get a normal user :(. And now I for some reason cannot go into any folder…

Not yet I’m trying though. That’s always the hardest step for me. Once I get somewhere I pretty much understand what else I have to do. It’s just getting there that’s the most difficult part.
