## **Basic Information**
It is a client/server system that allows users to access files across a network and treat them as if they resided in a local file directory. It has the same purpose as SMB but it cannot talk to SMB.
The NFS protocol has **no mechanism for authentication** or **authorization**. The authorization is taken from the available information of the file system where the server is responsible for translating the **user information** supplied by the **client** to that of the **file system** and converting the corresponding authorization information as correctly as possible into the syntax required by UNIX.
The most common **authentication is via UNIX `UID`/`GID` and `group memberships`**, which is why this syntax is most likely to be applied to the NFS protocol. One problem is that the **client** and **server** do **not necessarily** have to have the **same mappings of UID/GID** to users and groups. No further checks can be made on the part of the server. This is why NFS should **only** be used with this authentication method in **trusted networks**.
**Default port**: 2049/TCP/UDP (except version 4, it just needs TCP or UDP).&#x20;
```
2049/tcp open nfs 2-3 (RPC #100003
```
### Versions
(From [https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1068](https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1068))
| **Version** | **Features** |
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `NFSv2` | It is **older** but is supported by many systems and was initially operated entirely over UDP. |
| `NFSv3` | It has more features, including variable file size and better error reporting, but is not fully compatible with NFSv2 clients. |
| `NFSv4` | It includes Kerberos, works through firewalls and on the Internet, **no longer requires portmappers**, supports ACLs, applies state-based operations, and provides performance improvements and high **security**. It is also the first version to have a stateful protocol. |
## Enumeration
### Useful nmap scripts
```bash
nfs-ls #List NFS exports and check permissions
nfs-showmount #Like showmount -e
nfs-statfs #Disk statistics and info from NFS share
```
### Useful metasploit modules
```bash
scanner/nfs/nfsmount #Scan NFS mounts and list permissions
```
### Mounting
To know **which folder** has the server **available** to mount you an ask it using:
```bash
showmount -e <IP>
```
Then mount it using:
```bash
mount -t nfs [-o vers=2] <ip>:<remote_folder> <local_folder> -o nolock
```
You should specify to **use version 2** because it doesn't have **any** **authentication** or **authorization**.
**Example:**
```bash
mkdir /mnt/new_back
mount -t nfs [-o vers=2] 10.12.0.150:/backup /mnt/new_back -o nolock
```
## Permissions
If you mount a folder which contains **files or folders only accesible by some user** (by **UID**). You can **create** **locally** a user with that **UID** and using that **user** you will be able to **access** the file/folder.
## NSFShell
To easily list, mount and change UID and GID to have access to files you can use [nfsshell](https://github.com/NetDirect/nfsshell).
[Nice NFSShell tutorial.](https://www.pentestpartners.com/security-blog/using-nfsshell-to-compromise-older-environments/)
## Config files
```
/etc/exports
/etc/lib/nfs/etab
```
### Dangerous settings
(From [https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1068](https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1068))
| **Option** | **Description** |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `rw` | Read and write permissions. |
| `insecure` | Ports above 1024 will be used. |
| `nohide` | If another file system was mounted below an exported directory, this directory is exported by its own exports entry. |
| `no_root_squash` | All files created by root are kept with the UID/GID 0. |
| `no_all_squash` | |

## HackTricks Automatic Commands
```
Protocol_Name: NFS #Protocol Abbreviation if there is one.

Entry_1:
Name: Notes
Description: Notes for NFS
Note: |
It is a client/server system that allows users to access files across a network and treat them as if they resided in a local file directory.
#apt install nfs-common
showmount 10.10.10.180 ~or~showmount -e 10.10.10.180
should show you available shares (example /home)
mount -t nfs -o ver=2 10.10.10.180:/home /mnt/
cd /mnt
nano into /etc/passwd and change the uid (probably 1000 or 1001) to match the owner of the files if you are not able to get in
