Difficulty : Intermediate ~ Hard

There is one intended way to get low privilege user and two intended ways to get root shell.

Getting root using the easier way : Use anything you have

Getting root the harder way : Only use what's in the /root/

Virtual Machine

• OVA - Virtualbox
• Linux

Networking

• DHCP service: Enabled
• IP address: Automatically assign

• Description: The Mattermost chatting system may or may not hold sensitive information. Can you find your way in?

• Virtual Machine: VMware

• Operation System: Linux Ubuntu 16.04

• Format: VMDK

• DHCP Service: Enabled

• IP Address: Automatically Assigned

Plot

The Stheno Corporation are planning to cause a doomsday event using an unknown doomsday device within the next 12 hours, are you able to stop them dead in their tracks?

Your Goal

Stop the doomsday from occuring by disabling the doomsday devices created by The Stheno Corporation. Once you have succeeded you can retrieve your flag from http://192.168.56.105/flag.php

================ !!! IMPORTANT !!! ================

There are two vms that need to be powered on at the same time you cannot have one open while the other is offline

The vms must be on a host-only network and must be able to use the following ips (default settings for virtualbox):

• 192.168.56.105
• 192.168.56.107

Settings for virtualbox: - IPv4 Address: 192.168.56.1 - IPv4 Netmask: 255.255.255.0

DHCP:

• Server Addr: 192.168.56.100
• Server Mask: 255.255.255.0
• Lower Addr Bound: 192.168.56.101
• Upper Addr Bound: 192.168.56.254

This must be setup as there are strict firewall rules on the vms

Do not worry if you cannot reach 192.168.56.107 from the host pc this is intended

Description: This VM tells us that there are a couple of lovers namely Alice and Bob, where the couple was originally very romantic, but since Alice worked at a private company, "Ceban Corp", something has changed from Alice's attitude towards Bob like something is "hidden", And Bob asks for your help to get what Alice is hiding and get full access to the company!

Difficulty Level: Beginner

Notes: there are 2 flag files

Learning: Web Application | Simple Privilege Escalation

• Flags: 3 (local.txt, user.txt & root.txt)
• Difficulty Level: Initial Shell (Easy) - Privileges Escalation (Intermediate)
• Website: https://ebryx.com
• Hint: Maybe, you hasted and left some open holes unchecked?

Literally Vulnerable is supposed to give beginners a taste of real-world scenarios and OSCP machines at the same time! It was inspired highly by the @DC series.

You're supposed to know the big three (EEEs) Enumeration, Exploitation & Escalation of pentesting to pwn the machine. The machine is supposed to be beginner-friendly and the difficulty level is Easy-Intermediate depending on your knowledge. You need to have enough information about Linux file types & permissions for privileges escalation.

Technical Information:

• Just download, extract and load the .vmx file in VMware Workstation (tested on VMware Workstation 15.x.x)
• The adapter is currently NAT, networking is configured for DHCP and IP will get assigned automatically

Contact:

• You can either contact me on twitter @syed__umar or linkedin (/in/syedumararfeen/) for hints!

There are three flags in the machine: local.txt, user.txt & root.txt. You're supposed to grab all three in order to completely pwn the machine. Hope you like the machine, best of luck! :)

I'll try my best to continue with the series!

Description

MyExpense is a deliberately vulnerable web application that allows you to train in detecting and exploiting different web vulnerabilities. Unlike a more traditional "challenge" application (which allows you to train on a single specific vulnerability), MyExpense contains a set of vulnerabilities you need to exploit to achieve the whole scenario.

Scenario

You are "Samuel Lamotte" and you have just been fired by your company "Furtura Business Informatique". Unfortunately because of your hasty departure, you did not have time to validate your expense report for your last business trip, which still amounts to 750 € corresponding to a return flight to your last customer.

Fearing that your former employer may not want to reimburse you for this expense report, you decide to hack into the internal application called "MyExpense " to manage employee expense reports.

So you are in your car, in the company carpark and connected to the internal Wi-Fi (the key has still not been changed after your departure). The application is protected by username/password authentication and you hope that the administrator has not yet modified or deleted your access.

Your credentials were: samuel/fzghn4lw

Once the challenge is done, the flag will be displayed on the application while being connected with your (samuel) account.

Miscellaneous

If you need to restore the database : go to http://IP/config/setup.php

Difficulty : Intermediate

Flag : Need to get root to read flag (root.txt)

Welcome to Fsoft Hacking Labs !

If during boot, you notice Apache error. Please wait one minute then reboot. Labs are designed to destroy themselves when you exploit them incorrectly - Please create a snapshot of yourself.

Good luck to you as well !

Level: Beginner - Intermediate

Description: Built/Tested with VirtualBox. DHCP enabled. Need to get root to read flag

beginner - intermediate machine, your goal is to read /root/flag.txt.

Remember, good enumeration! VMware based, you may have problems with VB.

• Level: Intermediate-Hard
• User flag: user.txt
• Root flag: root.txt
• Description: It's a Boot2Root machine. The machine is VirtualBox compatible but can be used in VMWare as well (not tested but it should work). The DHCP will assign an IP automatically. You have to find and read two flags (user and root) which is present in user.txt and root.txt respectively. Enjoy pwning it!

This is super friendly box intended for Beginner's
