There was nothing on the page so I ran gobuster

Download the pcap file

See the 4th packet and follow HTTP stream

username=helpdesk&password=cH4nG3M3_n0w

We can see Host : development.smag.thm edit this in our /etc/hosts and the box's IP

We can then see admin and login page

Login with the credentials found above , now we can see that we can enter commmands but normal commands weren't working so I typed a php reverse shell

Once we are in we can see a cronjob running

Here we can replace it with our local machine's public key so that when we try to connect with ssh with our private key we can get access to the box with jake user

In order to do that we must generate public and private key

Now I copied my id_rsa.pub and pasted in their

We can see that this user can apt-get as sudo

Search on google for privesc via apt-get , GTFOBIN is a great resource for escalating as root with binaries
