Resolute

I’m seeing weird stuff too… my DLL did work at some point because i manage to run it within rundll32 as a check. It didn’t run within the targeted thing though… and now it doesn’t work even in my test…

this is my first box ever and I’m loving it so far :slight_smile:

almost done with root… having issues creating the DLL… not sure which arch/payload to use… any hints would be appreciated :slight_smile:

Can someone help me with the DLL ? i’ve litterally tried easily 20 versions, both archs to be sure, custom, MSF with various payloads, including cmd, none work, some partially work, in rundll32.exe, but never within that friggin service…

Should we be able to restart the D** service as user R***? Do we need to do that to trigger the exploit? I think I have everything right but running into access denied when restarting - just making sure I am doing the right thing. Think the box might be hoarked/fubared but looking for validation.

Yes, I’ve been able to stop/start the D** service with user R***.

I think i found the exploit for root.
But for executing this I need to compile some code with VS as far as I see. Since I dont have a Windows machine, is there a way to do this on linux?

m*****om is tool you should probably try

EDIT problem solved, was me being stupid.

Need a small nudge finding second user…
Been scouring C:\ for sometime now but still no luck.

If you need some nudges, DM me for a quick response.

after enum found this credentials : m****:W*******
how can i use these to get user ???
smb refuses connection with these
am brand new here

Done!

user: pretty easy after a small enum with basics and some try…
evil-winrm is really your friend
root: …oh sh*t , hard or not? if you know “who are you?” and know tools on the system to live with your “power” then easier to build-, and use your self stuff. If not, then ask a nudge and learn as me did it Thanks @bertalting , @doctoreleven , @tekkenpc :smiley:

thanks for this great machine :slight_smile:

DM me if you need nudge too

Is it so? I was under impression that the service was restarted in a given intervals.

the AV is very irritating. I tried many B****s tecnique, with no luck

Cannot get dll to work. I can see that windows is reaching for it but nothing happens next. I used binary from venom. Is there a simple way to get correct dll without crafting it? help please!

upd. got root. the issue was not the dll but the impacket. somehow got it work

Rooted

User: You have one password, try to get it working. Something evil happens when SysAdmins are lazy. Then go to the roots and force your way in

Root: You will find what you will abuse. After that I´ll say following: The file you will use can be remotely or on the machine. For the second way it doesn’t matter where it is but you have to make it by yourself or the AV will nuke it, poison doesn’t work.
If you go by the remote path trust in impacket and his servers before you use a native tool. As bonus you will see with impacket if it really gets contacted and you will know that the file is on his way to the machine

any further explanation for root part ?

Finally got Root!
But ■■■■ that Anti-Virus is a pain.
Thanks to @rholas @mimorikay

Hack The Box

Managed to get in with the user creds but as a linux guy (the reason I have been trying to focus on windows boxes) I am having a lot of trouble moving over to R*** I see he is in the C********** group and I assume that gives me more privs. So any PM’s welcome for any good tools or scripts that might help me enum and figure out the next steps. Or even a nudge in the right direction. All the scripts I have tried seem to get permission denied everywhere…

How did you guys bypass the defender ? I’m on the r… account to elevate the access but for some reason couldn’t find a way to even execute sharphound as it gets deleted automatically by the defender (AMSI).

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

PS: Finally got the root, I was focusing too much on bypassing the defender where it wasn’t even needed. Hope this hint helps to others.

I need a nudge to get going. I think I found the first password (I have an incredibly hard time believing anyone would actually put a password there) but I have no idea how to use it. I’ve tried using evi*-w**** but it requires a username that I have no idea how to find. Anyone wants to message me and help me out?

Thx @sassuwunnu, for the correct commands. It was restarted. Now to figure out why it is not pulling the dll from my sb server using i*****t.

Also thx @FatPotato.

Rooted. Had to try harder I guess.
