Networked

I just managed to get root, definitely learned a couple new things with this new box.

@nardin your tip about checking the seclist.org vulnerability was definitely a light spot for me! Many thanks for that.

Feel free to ping me in case of any doubts :slight_smile:

Finally rooted, if need help you can send me pm.

Rooted my 2nd box.

Tips on root: Don’t overthink on the magic words

Spent hours bypassing PHP file upload restrictions. The webserver is executing .png as a PHP file for unknown reason even though is a nginx webserver running on CentOS…
Kind of disappointed.

Got user, but without full understanding of what’s happening. Can someone who got it better pm?

Alright guys at a dead end here as apache user. I’ll get to /…r/…/…/… and touch a listener back to my machine which should be run by the script… I get a shell to my new listener but it’s also as user apache. So I’m unable to escalate to g—. Any suggestions? I’ve tried this command off and on yesterday and today, still the shell gives me apache user. So I need help escalating.

Edit, got escalation it was a syntax issue: thanks to Ctc76, Psychoshadw and Noproscp

Props to @madhack for his insanely quick ownership of root =)

i think for this problem i can upload php img shell but always reject, anyone can help me?

First HTB machine, learning a lot already. I’ve found the u***** and able to put something on it but struggling to get shell. Scripts I’ve attempted don’t seem to work. Attempting to use G**8*a.

Any help would be appreciated :smiley:

Rooted. Learned some new stuff about bash.

Feel free to PM for nudge.

■■■■■■ awesome… Just got USER… Now on to root.!! :slight_smile:

Root! Great box for beginners.

You’re expecting a shell to come back as a higher priviledged than the environment that is executing it - The shell will never be g**** user because g*** is not the one executing it. Hopefully this helps :slight_smile:

can you help me, im stuck on user apache, i had try updating the c****_*****.file for opening nc as guly but still same problem. any hint?

I AM ROOT…!! What a pleasure.

Got USER and ROOT. Worth it.

Phew, just before this machine retires.!!

for ROOT: Google. :wink:

i m stuck in user ,what to do with crontab service need help asap

Hello, I’m in need of a little nudge regarding user. I’ve gotten my initial shell. Found the file to exploit, I know how to inject and why it works. I can run basic commands and navigate the directory structure, but for some reason it refuses to execute my reverse shell.

PM appreciated, I can explain in more detail what I’m doing.

EDIT: got user, took a detour :smiley:

And rooted. Fun box. Learnt a bunch of stuff about bash.

struck with root~~ c***n**e.s.
