## PORT 80 (HTTP)
The web server has a template page which has a download option

This will download `routerspace.apk`
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/INlbPh1.png"/>
Now here I ran into a rabbithole or should I say had trouble in setting up the environment, there are two routes in getting a foothold one being reversing the application but issue is that this is react application and it's code is obfuscated, by decompiling the apk with `apktool` we can find `index.android.bundle` file which will have the obfuscated javascript code, I did tried to deobfuscate but couldn't deobfuscated it properly

<img src="https://i.imgur.com/JWPaxqW.png"/>
We can use `js-beatufiy` to make the code a bit cleaner which can be installed through `npm`

<img src="https://i.imgur.com/cxwyhCT.png"/>
We do see some strings which tells the url but still I wasn't able to deobfuscate it and make the proper url or endpoint
## Foothold
Next was to run this application on android emulator, I like using `Genymotion` so setup a new device and make sure that you use android 7 because if your android version is above 7 you'll face an issue when you'll try to intercept the requests being made by this application. So using an android 7 device we installed the application using `adb`

Before running make sure to add a proxy setting to the WiFI access point
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/SL1v6gw.png"/>
Now run the application while having burpsuite to listen on all interfaces and intercept the request

<img src="https://i.imgur.com/B3zJBjz.png"/>
So we can do command injection here and get RCE, next we can just add our ssh public key in `/home/paul/.ssh/authorized_keys` file and login through ssh
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/34VpBQp.png"/>
Checking the source code of the application we can see why were able to command injection as it was executing it as a process

## Privilege Escalation
So for escalating privileges I didn't find any thing that I could abuse or saw any cronjobs running, so only option I could think of was running `linpeas` but all outbound traffic was blocked as I couldn't transfer linpeas from my machine
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/spDU4Gz.png"/>
Copying the linpeas bash script and copy pasting it through clipboard was the only solution I could up with and then I ran the script which showed the sudoedit was vulnerable to a CVE know as `sudo Baron Samedit (CVE-2021-3156)`
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/oAU4nCB.png"/>
We can confrim that sudoedit is vulnerable as when we run sudoedit with `-s Y` it should not ask for password instead it should show us the usage options
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/bwMZ7b3.png"/>
But on the target machin it was asking for a password
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/SljaPZ9.png"/>
We can grab the exploit from here by copy pasting the exploit from clipboard
<img src="https://github.com/blasty/CVE-2021-3156"/>
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/su1iuuy.png"/>
Running `id` command we can see that we are root
