VULNHUB INFOSEC PREP : OSCP

Welcome to the walkthrough of InfoSec Prep: OSCP walkthrough. It is a beginner-level boot2root machine and it can be downloaded from  here . I cracked this machine literally 5 minutes after it booted properly. So you can consider this machine the easiest.  Hint: Nmap Finding secret.txt and decoding it. Login via ssh. Privilege escalation to root via SUID binary.  Boot up the machine and it should show the IP address. We start off by pinging the box to verify that the box is up and running and we can reach out to it. Command: ping <IP> Then we can run Nmap scan to look for open ports and services running on the box. We will use -sC for running default scripts, -sV for Version/Service info and -T4 for faster execution, and -o for saving the result on a file named nmap The command is: sudo nmap -sC -sV -T4 <IP> -o filename Looking at the scan results, port 22 is open and running ssh, and port 80 is open, and it's running Apache. We can also see a directory named ...

Beginners Code Review Part 1

  Image credits to  Leobit This is a walkthrough of an exercise created by  PentesterLab  as a free course for learning beginner-friendly source code review. The link to the source code is here . Either clone it or download it as a zip locally. As instructed in the exercise we won't run the run, just read through the source code and look for possible weaknesses that we can leverage into vulnerabilities. LIST OF WEAKNESSES You can find below the list of issues present in the application: Hardcoded credentials or secrets Information leak Missing security flags Weak password hashing mechanism Cross-Site Scripting No CSRF protection Directory Listing Crypto issue Signature bypass Authentication bypass Authorization bypass Remote Code Execution Hand-On Findings and Objectives * Hardcoded credentials or secrets      ...

KIOPTRIX LEVEL 1 WALKTHROUGH WITH AND WITHOUT METASPLOIT

Kioptrix Level 1 is a beginner level CTF challenge. You can download this virtual machine from here .  Details of Kioptrix : Size----186 MB OS---Linux Note: In virtual box, set up a Bridged network (virtual box -> preferences -> network) in networking, put both your Kali and Kioptrix to Bridged network. Fire-up both the machines(Kali and Kioptrix Level 1) Kioptrix will ask for the logins which we don't know at the moment. This also means we can't find IP of the Kioptrix directly from the Kioptrix machine itself. Leave the Kioptrix machine as it is and switch to Kali. First we need to find the IP address of the Kioptrix machine. We will use the tool netdiscover that comes pre-installed in Kali Linux to identify the IP address. Command   sudo netdiscover -i eth0 Wait  for scan results. 192.168.233.130 seems to be the IP of the Kioptrix machine. Let's scan this IP address using the tool Nmap (scan will also verify that its the IP of Kioptrix machine) Command  su...
