I’ve rooted the box but had the same doubt as @DeDeReporter …It would be great if you can share some reference link in private message.

hello guys,

i tried everything to get the root with no luck, with very basic enu.
please PM for helpfull hints

edit: rooted, it difficult to know or guess it work like that.

I got root, With just luck.
It did already happened with one or two boxes on HTB earlier.
Can any one explain, How and Why this works?

Can someone DM me regarding the c****_a***** php file. I can see mostly what it’s doing - but not sure how to manipulate it.

Thanks.

ROOTED!

I really enjoyed this box! Nice techniques and I learned a lot! The user part was more difficult than root but I loved the privesc both user and root

  • Foothold: you just have to upload something well crafted
  • User: not so easy to me, try to understand what php files do and which function you can exploit
  • Root: quite easy, first you have to understand what your user can execute and then exploit it

I hope this doesn’t spoiler too much, otherwise feel free to remove my comment.

PM me if you need hints

After a bunch of research, i finally found out why/how the root-privesc works. If you rooted the box and don’t know why, feel free to PM me, i will send you the link.

(same goes if you got spoiled the user-privesc and didn’t understand it)

got root pretty fast… in the first 10 attempts of test inputs , i will try later to study it in detail

Rooted! Fun box, and the first box I was able to root without even visiting the forum for hints.
The very last part took a bit of creativity though.

If you need a hint you’re welcome to PM me.

EDIT: After reading this thread, I apparently got root in a roundabout way, involving “some other way to write an IP”.

I’m at a loss on the root.

Got the user quickly but root has me stumped.

I know the file I need to use but I can’t see what I need to enter to escape.

Any hint over DM would be appreciated

EDIT: bit of sleep and a fresh look over and i cracked it. Good box! learnt a few things on the way to root

Rooted ! The problem here is the overthinking. Keep it simple

If anyone need a nudge just ping me

rooted.
For root, 1) basic check for your given privilege, 2) read a script, 3) try several things with the script and see the error message.

Rooted, nice box really enjoyed, thanks makers, learnt again ?

Need help con privesc, please pm a hint

Rooted!
Nice box

[root@networked]# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

PM for hints :slight_smile:

Just rooted the box. Took me awhile to do so.

Initial Access: I was on the right track but tried to rush it so I made a oopsie and didn’t notice my mistake for at least 1,5 hours.

User: I needed a hint on this. I hate php and can’t read it very well. My cryptonite. technique wise it’s a rather basic thing. You just need to see where you have to deploy this basic technique.

Root: Basic enum gave the vector away in seconds. After reading the source and “the other source” I just tried it and out “things” in there. Took me about 10 or 15 minutes for root.
