rooted! thanks @Dark0 for the nudge !

Finally rooted

And rooted :slight_smile: Almost got root before getting user, but then found the way in :smiley:
Really a nice box, though I didn’t like that fact that others can easily break the whole machine (or sometimes just partially, which makes gaining foothold even more frustrating), which then requires a reset of the machine. For those who haven’t solved it yet: There are less intrusive ways of gaining access to the machine. There is no need to change anything :wink:

How do you find the location for H** on the server?

Nice box, rooted…

if you need help, can ask me

got credentials saw something like h**.h** how to go further

rooted. That was a fun box. My hint would be that there are definitely ways around a certain thing being turned off. Youll have to read to figure out why.

From there, it is very straight forward with normal enumeration. Nothing too crazy. Very much enjoyable.

Hi ! I’m desperately searching for the H* file using what I read on a***.h**. And I haven’t found anything yet, a nudge would be appreciated. :smile:

Can someone PM me and give me a hand on the guessing part please? I literally bruteforced every H** possible directories and still stuck, and google searches didn’t provide me any additional hint. I’m not good at this guessing stuff, I just want to exploit things.

Still stuck on the rabbit hole. Please help. Not able to proceed

Well this sucks. on the login page there is now just a PHP shell… Don’t know who did that :\

That is the situation in free servers … Vip is the cure …

Yeah i just got VIP :wink:

Is anyone having trouble with the first exploit after the foothold. It takes FOREVER to run and all of the data is blank. I had to modify the exploit to target exactly the data I want before it would return anything

Rooted

Overall fun box which teached me a lot. Pay attention to details, write things down while enumerating and keep things simple

PM for nudges

who the f keep turning off the p***** ***e

Rooted. Fun box.

I’ve done it

id

uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

Thanks @ASHacker for this Box and my team-mates for tips and helps :slight_smile:

Doesn’t count if you don’t show the hostname of the machine :lol:
Ok :wink:

# cat <hide>/hostname && id
cache
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

Looks like there is another login page for H**, but I can’t find it anywhere! Any hints?

Rooted! Very nice box!

finally!!! got root good machine , with quite good challanges like sq** and dock** ,

Foothold: enumeration is key ,look closer and find exploit be more specific in chossing exploit

user: Take notes to keep track what have u found ,may be it can be used later;
root: Take advantage of services hosted locally that will lead u to root , again enumeration is key,Keep digging u should know your powers;

fuzz that virtual host network

Rooted. Cool box, i learned a few things. Overall, I think Admirer was a bit harder than this one, but both were good experiences.

  1. Enum and Foothold is the most challenging part of this box
  2. Due to issues I had with the low priv shell, I ended up doing the work to get to the ‘lateral’ user first, got a better shell and then was able to back up into the user holding the flag based on enum.
  3. root isn’t difficult, just knowing who you are and some quick research if you are not familiar with the privesc.

Thanks to @Dark0 for the nudge on the foothold.
