Hi All,
I went off the path for the oopsie machine, using the Robert account to execute this exploit:
Linux Kernel 4.15.x < 4.19.2 - 'map_write() CAP_SYS_ADMIN' Local Privilege Escalation (polkit Method) - Linux local Exploit ( Linux Kernel 4.15.x < 4.19.2 - ‘map_write() CAP_SYS_ADMIN’ Local Privilege Escalation (polkit Method))
This successfully gave me a Root shell, but I don’t have any permissions at all. I’m not hugely familiar with the Capabilities system but I don’t think I’m locked out:
