Finally got root after practically losing my mind from rabbit holes.
There’s more than enough information in the thread to help you get your foothold.
Foothold: It sucks to hear, but if you are stuck with it, think of different way to enumerate using programs you’re most likely already using. Thanks to @TazWake for nudging me in the right direction.
For user: Once again. Just enumerate more.
Root: This is where I wanna chip in my two cents. If you’re having trouble figuring out root, stop overthinking it. The solution is extremely easy. From user, it should take two commands to have root. There was a CVE released last year in relation to the privesc. If you’ve checked everything already, check what your user is allowed to do, it should look a little suspicious.
Hope this helps and isn’t too much information. PM for a nudge and I’ll try to help you out some more.
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!

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.
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.
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.
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?
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
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 . If anyone would pm me with a nudge it would be greatly appreciated. Been banging my head on this for hours. Thanks in advance.
