## Informazioni di base
**Post Office Protocol (POP)** è descritto come un protocollo nell'ambito delle reti informatiche e di Internet, utilizzato per l'estrazione e il **recupero di email da un server di posta remoto**, rendendole accessibili sul dispositivo locale. Posizionato all'interno del livello applicativo del modello OSI, questo protocollo consente agli utenti di recuperare e ricevere email. Il funzionamento dei **client POP** comporta tipicamente l'instaurazione di una connessione con il server di posta, il download di tutti i messaggi, la memorizzazione di questi messaggi localmente sul sistema client e successivamente la loro rimozione dal server. Sebbene ci siano tre iterazioni di questo protocollo, **POP3** si distingue come la versione più comunemente utilizzata.
**Porte predefinite:** 110, 995(ssl)
```
PORT STATE SERVICE
110/tcp open pop3
```
## Enumerazione
### Acquisizione del Banner
```bash
nc -nv 110
openssl s_client -connect :995 -crlf -quiet
```
## Manuale
Puoi utilizzare il comando `CAPA` per ottenere le capacità del server POP3.
## Automatizzato
```bash
nmap --script "pop3-capabilities or pop3-ntlm-info" -sV -port #All are default scripts
```
Il plugin `pop3-ntlm-info` restituirà alcuni dati "**sensibili**" (versioni di Windows).

## Sintassi POP
Esempi di comandi POP da [qui](http://sunnyoasis.com/services/emailviatelnet.html)
```bash
POP commands:
USER uid Log in as "uid"
PASS password Substitue "password" for your actual password
STAT List number of messages, total mailbox size
LIST List messages and sizes
RETR n Show message n
DELE n Mark message n for deletion
RSET Undo any changes
QUIT Logout (expunges messages if no RSET)
TOP msg n Show first n lines of message number msg
CAPA Get capabilities
```
Esempio:
```
root@kali:~# telnet $ip 110

## Impostazioni Pericolose
Da [https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1073](https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1073)
| **Impostazione** | **Descrizione** |
| ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `auth_debug` | Abilita tutti i log di debug dell'autenticazione. |
| `auth_debug_passwords` | Questa impostazione regola la verbosità dei log, le password inviate e lo schema viene registrato. |
| `auth_verbose` | Registra i tentativi di autenticazione non riusciti e i loro motivi. |
| `auth_verbose_passwords` | Le password utilizzate per l'autenticazione vengono registrate e possono anche essere troncate. |
| `auth_anonymous_username` | Questo specifica il nome utente da utilizzare quando si accede con il meccanismo ANONYMOUS SASL. |

Note: |
Post Office Protocol (POP) is described as a protocol within the realm of computer networking and the Internet, which is utilized for the extraction and retrieval of email from a remote mail server**, making it accessible on the local device. Positioned within the application layer of the OSI model, this protocol enables users to fetch and receive email. The operation of POP clients typically involves establishing a connection to the mail server, downloading all messages, storing these messages locally on the client system, and subsequently removing them from the server. Although there are three iterations of this protocol, POP3 stands out as the most prevalently employed version.
