@wizlizThanks! I actually figured it out and got past that part a few days ago. I’ve got an exploit working on my Kali box locally, but not remotely. I’ve put up an Ubuntu box with a similar config to the target (where necessary, at least), and am trying to get the exploit to pop off there.
I’m not sure who suggested this, but VM is absolutely unnecessary step.
Just learn how to use libc and executable over ssh connection from the box. Just 2 lines of code.
If you will search htb forums you might find almost working solution in a different thread.
You can even setup ssh on kali to act as a remote box for your experimentsPS. This was my first binexp, nothing really hard here
I’m glad it was easy for you. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean it’s “easy” for everyone else. While setting up a VM might be “unnecessary,” it certainly doesn’t hurt to be able to see what exactly is going on.
Consider in the future that people have vastly different skill levels across the board. Binary Exploitation at this point is way over my head. I’m learning, slowly, but it can get very frustrating and is far from “easy” to me and many others.
