Lots of interesting stuff on initial recon. I downloaded everything I could find from the box but not sure how to use it yet (or whether it will be useful even). No obvious initial footholds yet.
edit: this box is so slow, even in VIP, and nothing is rendering consistently, so Iām going to skip it.
I seem to be having some really inconsistent results, I had my .l* working fine, but now (using the same commands) it seems to hang as if j**** isnāt doing anything with it? I had success changing to a different VIP world for a bit, but pretty consistently doesnāt seem to be working now. The .l* is definitely in the right spot, doesnāt seem like itās reverting either. If anyone has a clue with this one, would be appreciated
Same issue with me then. Talked to a couple of people who got system and it sounds like my .l* is correct and in the right place but nothing happensā¦ Tried with the simplest possible payload. Run it myself, works. Wait for j****ā¦ no responseā¦
Something to mention, the default HTB openVPN connection runs over UDP, meaning there is no actual session management for your overall connection to the labs (so TCP session management within the lab is then meaningless essentially).
I found I had much greater reliability when using the TCP openVPN rather than the default
After resetting the box, the actions of the box still appear as if an event which should be occurring isnātā¦
Reverse shell seems to hang as wellā¦ been carrying on without but was getting messy, decided to dig a little deeper. Not sure why but the commands arenāt getting a response backā¦ Works fine between two vms.
Yeah thats what I found, I woudl overwrite the .lnk and i could keep typing it and it just woyudlnt over write. Iāve sent the creator a message to see if its intended to start doing that once the box restarts as it may be a bug. I just switched labs until i found one that worked.
I am not having success with the .l*, either my payload is off or Iām just not receiving the responses like everyone else. Anyone kind enough to confirm if my payload is jacked up??
Anyone could PM me a hint? Iām out of ideas.
Iām able to execute a limited set of commands and to read a part of the output over another āchannelā. Iām not able to write something or to use one of the techniques to transfer files to the machine.

Try or Die!!! Donāt let the box pwn you
Searched through 4 labs and the free one yesterday to find a box where the lnk stuff is working properly. Does not get executed (the lnk works when I execute as Alan) and not get replaced. Have been trying for 3 days and over 15 hours now. Wonāt let the sh*te box pwn my life.
Probably Jorge is slacking as usual and already in his holiday break.
