## PORT 80 (HTTP)

Clicking on `Test` or `Softwaer Issue Tracker` would be leading us  to `http://spectra.htb` so let's add this to `/etc/hosts`

Going to `wp-config.php.save` we can find credentials to the database 

<img src="https://imgur.com/VSRhiu9.png"/>

But when connecting to them it just doesn't allow

### Wpscan

So we can't connect to mysql so we have a wordpress site let's run `wpscan` on it 

<img src="https://imgur.com/GomMYG0.png"/>

<img src="https://imgur.com/cAzWQxm.png"/>

So we have a wordpress user `administrator`

<img src="https://imgur.com/f4JfP4q.png"/>

Using the password `devteam01` we logged in with `administrator`

<img src="https://imgur.com/faWVNps.png"/>

We can edit the `404.php` template in the active theme

Using a metasploit payload

Add ssh public key in `/home/nginx/.ssh/authorized_keys`

<img src="https://imgur.com/Bp2ZWS3.png"/>

<img src="https://imgur.com/h0utHDJ.png"/>

Going in `/opt` directory

<img src="https://imgur.com/aAXcFE8.png"/>

<img src="https://imgur.com/5tDMR1I.png"/>

We find a `passwd` file

<img src="https://imgur.com/djoWHPT.png"/>

ssh as `katie`

<img src="https://imgur.com/j8iUIUL.png"/>

On doing `sudo -l` we'll see what we can run as root

<img src="https://imgur.com/tULPcp6.png"/>

And we can run `initctl` which is used for running services, these services are stored in `/etc/init`

We can see the services we can edit 

<img src="https://imgur.com/OiPGXTo.png"/>

<img src="https://imgur.com/Ckviuh7.png"/>

Here this service is running a nodejs file which is `nodetest.js`

<img src="https://imgur.com/h2RowUK.png"/>

This is what we see when we visit port 8081 on the web browser we can edit this file by a node js reverse shell

After editing set a netcat listener
