VulnNet: Internal

This is a write-up for the machine VulnNet: Internal located at: https://tryhackme.com/room/vulnnetinternalarrow-up-right

I ran an nmap scan

nmap -T4 -A 10.10.98.192 -oN nmap_output.txt

This is the output I got:

I then ran smbmap -H IP_Address, and got the following output:

I then ran smbclient \\\\10.10.98.192\\shares, and got the following output:

In the temp folder, there was the following file:

In the data folder, there was the following file:

Looking through the files, I found the flag for the services.txt:

I then ran a metasploit module auxiliary/scanner/rsync/modules_list. This is what I got from the result from it:

I then read this write-uparrow-up-right and realized that I did not use the showmount command. I then followed the write-up to run showmeant -e IP_Address. I then got the following:

I then mounted the system to my machine:

Viewing through the files I came across some sort of password in the redis.conf file:

I then followed the same write-up to understand my next step. This was to use redis-cli in order to connect to the database and see what is there using the pasword we found earlier. I ran redis-cli -h 10.10.98.192 -a <requirepass_from_earlier> in order to login to the database. I then was able to find the flag for internal:

When I ran LRANGE authlist 1 20, I got the following:

The three values were the exact same, and seemed to be base64 encoded. I decoded it online and got the following:

So now we have to connect to rsync with this password:

There is a sys-internal directory that I ave to find a way to get access into. I followed the aforementioned write-up and ran the following commands (tweaked to work for me):

This allowed me to download the folder to my local drive. In that directory, I found the user.txt file:

I got stuck here, so I had to view the write-up again. I was meant to create an SSH keypair and upload it using rsync. So I ran the following commands:

For the previous step, I ended up getting stuck, and found this write-uparrow-up-right that actually clarified the situation for me. This same write-up led me to run ss -tulpn to find out what ports were open. I used the same write-up to figure out we have to do port forwarding. In order to do this, I ran the following command:

Visiting localhost:8111 led me to the following page:

I then searched for the word token in the whole filesystem to find a token for the following webpage:

The second to last authentication token worked for me! I then created a new project:

I then created a build config:

I then went to Build Steps and followed a bit of this write-uparrow-up-right for this part. I following the following image:

I then ran the script from the choice on top, and when I went back to my previous shell, I ran /bin/bash -p, and I was able to get root:

I wan then able to get the root flag:
