Redis is enabled on this, which is probably vulnerable somehow. I did a detailed scan too:

Wordpress was running on the site, so let's scan that first.

Redis Creds Block

The Redis instance needed credentials to enumerate:

hashtag
Wordpress LFI -> Redis Creds

I used wpscan on the website and found a vulnerable plugin.

I confirmed that this works:

So we have an LFI, and the only other exploitable thing is the Redis instance. I tried to find credentials for it using this LFI, and found it within /etc/redis/redis.conf:

Searching for the AUTH string allowed me to find the password:

We can then enumerate the database:

Redis RCE

The Redis instance is vulnerable to RCE through the module loading exploit with Redis Rogue Server:

We can easily get a reverse shell using this RCE exploit:

Privilege Escalation

hashtag
Redis -> Alice

This user had extremely limited privileges over the file system. There was a user present, but I cold not even read the /home directory. There wasn't much else we could do besides try to execute PHP reverse shells using the LFI we had.

I wrote a PHP reverse shell to the /opt/redis-cli directory. Then, using our LFI, we can execute it:

Cronjob -> Tar Command Injection

I ran pspy64 on the machine to see what processes were being run.

root is running a script here:

This script checks multiple files at one go (3 in this case) Based on GTFOBins, we can use tar to execute commands.

To exploit this, we just need to create two files, one called --checkpoint=1 and another called --checkpoint-action=exec=bash ez.sh.

We can first create ez.sh:

Then, we can create the two files needed.

After a while, the root user would execute the script and we would get a reverse shell:
