Official Blunder Discussion

Kindly help me with this machine i have got stuck, i have found the admin page and how do i move forward, i am not getting anything else! Kindly help!

Hi everyone, a request for help!

I have got initial foothold, which ended up being more of a guess despite hours of attempts at http-post brute force with the required user and wordlist.

As a learning point, now I have credentials, I have tried to go back to correct the syntax of the http-post request but to no avail (have tried both through Burp and Hydra). I believe it is primarily down to the incorrect defintiion of the failed login message.

This has affected other instances before, not just Blunder, and I am keen to fix the syntax issue for future. I was wondeing if someone who was sucessful with the http-post brute force may message me the syntax they used. Altenrtaivley id be happy to share the synatx I used for any tips!

Thanks.

This is not a good box for hydra. If you google the technology running it, you might find that it has some mitigations for brute force attacks.

Rooted.

Foothold was definitely the trickiest part, but it’s staring you in the face. No brute forcing or word lists needed, as discussed in previous posts.

User was super easy, just enumerate.

Root was also super easy once you locate the right method. Everything you need has already been discussed here.

Overall, really liked this box - foothold process really accentuated the stupid things that users do. Finding the end exploit was really interesting to find.

Initial foothold was a tricky part; PM for help/nudge…

Other than foothold, this is one of the easiest boxes I’ve done. Take your time with enumeration, look closely, but don’t look too hard. It may end up being a bit fuzzy. (If you look hard enough, brute-force is absolutely not necessary).

User: Don’t look too hard. Easier than you might expect.

Root: 5 seconds. Easiest privesc I’ve seen in a while.

Very handy box overall. Took around an hour/hour and a half from boot2root.

Delete if it gives too much away

rooted, tq

trying to find this apparent username file is sure taking ages, this is what I get for being on free I guess. Have the other part of the puzzle.

It can be painful but it shouldn’t take that long. If you haven’t found it in about 10 minutes, it might be worth double-checking your approach logic.

Given the fact I’ve probably gone through a million words trying to find it so far I would probably say yes I should change my approach logic.

Ok, so I’m having some issues using M****S*****, I’m getting a [-] Exploit failed: An exploitation error occurred. I’ve set the user, pass, rhost, rport what am I missing?

Check your settings and payload.

I’ve read through this whole thread, still can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.
I made sure my source ip address is correct, using target uri from the documentation, am using the p**/m**********/r********p payload and am getting this response:

Exploit aborted due to failure: unknown: No tokenCSRF found.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

The problem is as it is, if you take a 5 minute look at the login page you’ll see the issue. For whatever reason or not MS isn’t either providing it or you just missed out on it. I mean you can always just do it manually :smile:

Rooted. ngl the enum was literally just one cmd, but must of dropped requests when I did it originally and went down a rabbit hole. Don’t miss anything. You do not need to ‘bruteforce’ anything if you can read.

User: 1 v 1 + the rest of the hints in this thread just make sure its the right one
Root: 5 seconds with the rest of the hints in this thread

The more I read that foothold is right in front of the face the more I want to scream :smiley: . If anyone would pm me with a nudge it would be greatly appreciated. Been banging my head on this for hours. Thanks in advance.

Can anyone help me get user? I have a hash from u***s.php but I have been unable to crack it. I have used the salt with it to no avail.

My current issue is that I get this message in msf and it doesn’t create a session
[] Started reverse TCP handler on CENSORED
[+] Logged in as: f***** (I censored this as well)
[
] Retrieving UUID…
[] Uploading xCwhiPoQRB.png…
[
] Uploading .htaccess…
[] Executing xCwhiPoQRB.png…
[!] This exploit may require manual cleanup of ‘.htaccess’ on the target
[
] Exploit completed, but no session was created.
Am I using the wrong payload or is it a issue I havent thought of yet?

Finally rooted. Indeed root was very easy, but initial foothold was really annoying.
Thanks to the creator, it was quite a fun box.

Exactly the same problem. I tried all payloads, but nothing helped

Hi All,

This is my very first machine that I am attempting to crack, so please don’t mind the layman language. Also, this is the very first time i am posting for help, so apologies in advance if i break any rules while asking for help.

I’m trying to find the password of the user f***** using brute force, using the script at (Spoiler removed), however, i am being thrown the following error -

(removed)

Is there an issue with the script, or is it the internet. If its the former, can someone point me
in an alternate direction?

Thanks much in advance for the help!
