Getting Started - Nibbles Initial Foothold (unable to upload payload)

Rintin · October 17, 2022, 6:04pm

Hello,

So I’m stuck at the process of uploading the payload.php file through the admin dashboard plugin my_image which after adding the payload and clicking save changes, makes the browser stall on browser is processing animation.

The url = http://10.129.88.102/nibbleblog/admin.php?controller=plugins&action=config&plugin=my_image

Any suggestions on what’s going on?
Thanks.

Edit: It seems that the issue is somehow related to my vm and it’s connection to htb, even though everything except the run exploit works.

I did get the user flag from pwnbox. However the exploit seems to drop each time I run it through the different methods(msfconsole, dashboard upload) including different payloads.

Here’s the tcpdump -i tun0 that I took when I ran the msfconsole exploit.

Have you found out the issue ? Im having the same problem. Ive been stuck on it for an hour. I cant even upload a shell.php manually file to the image upload plugin. Ive tried resetting the box and my vpn connection.

Hey yea I did find a fix, but not really sure what the issue was. I changed my HTB Academy Openvpn to Tcp from Udp, and that ended up fixing it. It’s really odd because everything else seems to work just fine, until the shell.php POST.

Lol I found the fix. I uninstalled the image function and reinstalled it. Then uploaded the file filling out both title and description. Just got the machine a few minutes ago. Thanks for responding so quickly.

No worries, I tried that too but for some reason it didn’t work for me.

I had similar problems initially, have a look and see if there are other files anywhere mentioned in the lesson and name your payload the same as them.
