```
### FTP

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks against FTP servers involve attempting to log in using a large number of username and password combinations. This can be done using automated tools that systematically try different combinations until the correct one is found. It is important to note that brute force attacks can be time-consuming and may trigger account lockouts or other security measures.
```bash
hydra -l root -P passwords.txt [-t 32] <IP> ftp
ncrack -p 21 --user root -P passwords.txt <IP> [-T 5]
medusa -u root -P 500-worst-passwords.txt -h <IP> -M ftp
legba ftp --username admin --password wordlists/passwords.txt --target localhost:21
```
### Brute Force Générique HTTP

#### [**WFuzz**](../pentesting-web/web-tool-wfuzz.md)

### Authentification de base HTTP
```bash
hydra -L /usr/share/brutex/wordlists/simple-users.txt -P /usr/share/brutex/wordlists/password.lst sizzle.htb.local http-get /certsrv/
# Use https-get mode for https
medusa -h <IP> -u <username> -P  <passwords.txt> -M  http -m DIR:/path/to/auth -T 10
legba http.basic --username admin --password wordlists/passwords.txt --target http://localhost:8888/
```
### HTTP - NTLM

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks against NTLM authentication involve attempting all possible combinations of characters until the correct password is found. This method can be time-consuming but is effective against weak passwords. Tools like `Hydra` can be used to automate the brute force process.
```bash
legba http.ntlm1 --domain example.org --workstation client --username admin --password wordlists/passwords.txt --target https://localhost:8888/
legba http.ntlm2 --domain example.org --workstation client --username admin --password wordlists/passwords.txt --target https://localhost:8888/
```
### HTTP - Poster un formulaire

#### Brute Force

La méthode la plus simple pour casser un mot de passe est le brute force. Cela implique d'essayer toutes les combinaisons possibles de mots de passe jusqu'à ce que le bon soit trouvé. Il existe des outils automatisés qui peuvent aider à effectuer cette tâche de manière efficace.
```bash
hydra -L /usr/share/brutex/wordlists/simple-users.txt -P /usr/share/brutex/wordlists/password.lst domain.htb  http-post-form "/path/index.php:name=^USER^&password=^PASS^&enter=Sign+in:Login name or password is incorrect" -V
# Use https-post-form mode for https
```
Pour http**s** vous devez changer de "http-post-form" à "**https-post-form"**

### **HTTP - CMS --** (W)ordpress, (J)oomla or (D)rupal or (M)oodle
```bash
cmsmap -f W/J/D/M -u a -p a https://wordpress.com
# Check also https://github.com/evilsocket/legba/wiki/HTTP
```
### IMAP

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks against IMAP are typically carried out using the `hydra` tool. The following command can be used to launch a brute force attack against an IMAP server:

```bash
hydra -l <username> -P <wordlist> -f <target_ip> imap
```

- `-l`: Specify the username to attack.
- `-P`: Specify the wordlist containing passwords to try.
- `-f`: Stop the attack once the correct password is found.
- `<target_ip>`: The IP address of the target IMAP server.

It is important to note that brute force attacks can be detected by intrusion detection systems (IDS) and can potentially lead to account lockouts.
```bash
hydra -l USERNAME -P /path/to/passwords.txt -f <IP> imap -V
hydra -S -v -l USERNAME -P /path/to/passwords.txt -s 993 -f <IP> imap -V
nmap -sV --script imap-brute -p <PORT> <IP>
legba imap --username user --password data/passwords.txt --target localhost:993
```
### IRC

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks on IRC servers are usually performed using automated scripts that attempt to guess usernames and passwords. These scripts can be easily found online and are relatively simple to use. Attackers can target both the server login and individual user accounts.

#### Protection

To protect against brute force attacks on IRC servers, it is recommended to:

1. **Use Strong Passwords**: Encourage users to use strong, unique passwords that are not easily guessable.
2. **Implement Account Lockout Policies**: Limit the number of login attempts before locking out an account temporarily.
3. **Monitor Login Attempts**: Keep track of failed login attempts and investigate any suspicious activity.
4. **Update Software**: Ensure that the IRC server software is up to date with the latest security patches.
5. **Use CAPTCHA**: Implement CAPTCHA challenges to prevent automated scripts from performing brute force attacks.
```bash
nmap -sV --script irc-brute,irc-sasl-brute --script-args userdb=/path/users.txt,passdb=/path/pass.txt -p <PORT> <IP>
```

### OracleSQL

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks are commonly used to crack passwords by systematically trying all possible combinations until the correct one is found. In OracleSQL, tools like Hydra or Medusa can be used to automate the process of brute forcing passwords. These tools can be configured to try different combinations of usernames and passwords against an Oracle database login page. It is important to note that brute force attacks can be time-consuming and resource-intensive, but they can be effective if the passwords are weak or easily guessable.
```bash
patator oracle_login sid=<SID> host=<IP> user=FILE0 password=FILE1 0=users-oracle.txt 1=pass-oracle.txt -x ignore:code=ORA-01017

./odat.py passwordguesser -s $SERVER -d $SID
./odat.py passwordguesser -s $MYSERVER -p $PORT --accounts-file accounts_multiple.txt

#msf1
msf> use admin/oracle/oracle_login
msf> set RHOSTS <IP>
msf> set RPORT 1521
msf> set SID <SID>

#msf2, this option uses nmap and it fails sometimes for some reason
msf> use scanner/oracle/oracle_login
msf> set RHOSTS <IP>
msf> set RPORTS 1521
msf> set SID <SID>

#for some reason nmap fails sometimes when executing this script
nmap --script oracle-brute -p 1521 --script-args oracle-brute.sid=<SID> <IP>

legba oracle --target localhost:1521 --oracle-database SYSTEM --username admin --password data/passwords.txt

### POP

---

Brute forcing POP (Post Office Protocol) is a technique used to gain unauthorized access to email accounts by trying various username and password combinations until the correct one is found.

#### Tools

- Hydra
- Nmap
- Metasploit

#### Methodology

1. Identify the POP service running on the target system using Nmap.
2. Use Hydra to perform a brute force attack by specifying the target IP, protocol (pop3), username list, password list, and any other relevant options.
3. Monitor the Hydra output to identify successful login credentials.
4. Once valid credentials are found, access the email account using a mail client or other appropriate tools.
```bash
hydra -l USERNAME -P /path/to/passwords.txt -f <IP> pop3 -V
hydra -S -v -l USERNAME -P /path/to/passwords.txt -s 995 -f <IP> pop3 -V

# Insecure
legba pop3 --username admin@example.com --password wordlists/passwords.txt --target localhost:110

# SSL
legba pop3 --username admin@example.com --password wordlists/passwords.txt --target localhost:995 --pop3-ssl
```
### PostgreSQL

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks against PostgreSQL databases can be carried out using tools like Hydra or Metasploit. These tools can attempt to log in to a PostgreSQL database by trying a large number of possible usernames and passwords until the correct combination is found. It is important to use strong and unique passwords to protect against brute force attacks.
```bash
hydra -L /root/Desktop/user.txt –P /root/Desktop/pass.txt <IP> postgres
medusa -h <IP> –U /root/Desktop/user.txt –P /root/Desktop/pass.txt –M postgres
ncrack –v –U /root/Desktop/user.txt –P /root/Desktop/pass.txt <IP>:5432

### SQL Server

#### Brute Force

Brute force attacks against SQL Server involve attempting to guess usernames and passwords to gain unauthorized access. This can be done using automated tools that systematically try all possible combinations of usernames and passwords until the correct one is found.

#### Protection

To protect against brute force attacks on SQL Server, consider implementing the following measures:

1. **Strong Password Policy**: Enforce the use of complex passwords that are difficult to guess.
2. **Account Lockout Policy**: Implement account lockout mechanisms to lock out users after a certain number of failed login attempts.
3. **Monitoring and Logging**: Monitor login attempts and set up alerts for multiple failed login attempts.
4. **Two-Factor Authentication**: Implement two-factor authentication to add an extra layer of security.
5. **Firewall Rules**: Restrict access to SQL Server by allowing only specific IP addresses or ranges.
6. **Regular Security Audits**: Conduct regular security audits to identify and address any vulnerabilities.

By implementing these measures, you can significantly reduce the risk of a successful brute force attack on your SQL Server.
```bash
#Use the NetBIOS name of the machine as domain
crackmapexec mssql <IP> -d <Domain Name> -u usernames.txt -p passwords.txt
hydra -L /root/Desktop/user.txt –P /root/Desktop/pass.txt <IP> mssql
medusa -h <IP> –U /root/Desktop/user.txt –P /root/Desktop/pass.txt –M mssql
nmap -p 1433 --script ms-sql-brute --script-args mssql.domain=DOMAIN,userdb=customuser.txt,passdb=custompass.txt,ms-sql-brute.brute-windows-accounts <host> #Use domain if needed. Be careful with the number of passwords in the list, this could block accounts
msf> use auxiliary/scanner/mssql/mssql_login #Be careful, you can block accounts. If you have a domain set it and use USE_WINDOWS_ATHENT
```

## Brute Forcing

### Introduction

Brute forcing is a common technique used to crack passwords by systematically attempting all possible combinations of characters until the correct one is found. This method is often used to crack hashed passwords obtained from the `/etc/shadow` file on Linux systems.

### Tools

There are various tools available for brute forcing passwords, such as John the Ripper, Hashcat, and Hydra. These tools can be used to automate the process of trying different password combinations quickly and efficiently.

### Methodology

1. **Obtain Hashed Passwords**: The first step is to obtain the hashed passwords from the `/etc/shadow` file on a Linux system. This file stores the hashed passwords of users on the system.

2. **Select a Tool**: Choose a suitable tool for brute forcing passwords. Tools like John the Ripper are popular for this purpose due to their effectiveness and speed.

3. **Configure the Tool**: Set up the chosen tool with the necessary parameters, such as the hash type and any specific rules for password generation.

4. **Start Brute Forcing**: Initiate the brute forcing process using the selected tool. The tool will systematically try different password combinations until the correct one is found.

5. **Crack the Password**: Once the tool successfully cracks the password, the plaintext password will be revealed. This password can then be used to gain unauthorized access to the system.

### Conclusion

Brute forcing is a powerful technique for cracking passwords, especially when dealing with hashed passwords stored in the `/etc/shadow` file on Linux systems. By using specialized tools and following a systematic approach, hackers can potentially uncover weak passwords and gain unauthorized access to systems.
