Bài Hướng Dẫn Mutillidae : Lesson 2 - Command Injection Database Interrogation

{ Command Injection Database Interrogation }
Section 0. Background Information
  • What Mutillidae?
    • OWASP Mutillidae II is a free, open source, deliberately vulnerable web-application providing a target for web-security enthusiast.
  • What is Command Injection?
    • Command Injection occurs when an attacker is able to run operating system commands or serverside scripts from the web application.  This vulnerability potential occurs when a web application allows you to commonly do a nslookup, whois, ping, traceroute and more from their webpage.  You can test for the vulnerability by using a technique called fuzzing, where a ";" or "|" or "||" or "&" or "&&" is append to the end of the expected input (eg., www.cnn.com) followed by a command (eg., cat /etc/passwd).
  • What is Fuzzing?
    • Fuzz testing or fuzzing is a software testing technique that involves providing invalid, unexpected, or random data to the inputs of a computer program. The program is then monitored for exceptions such as crashes, or failing built-in code assertions or for finding potential memory leaks. Fuzzing is commonly used to test for security problems in software or computer systems.

        • The mysqld (daemon) is running.

Section 10. Database Interrogation
  1. List all php scripts
    • Notes (FYI):
      • Our next step is to try to figure out if any of the php scripts located under /var/www/html/mutillidae contain a database username and password.
      • But, first list all the php scripts.
    • Instructions:
      1. Hostname/IP:
        • www.cnn.com; find /var/www/html/mutillidae -name "*.php"
      2. Click the Lookup DNS button
      3. View your Results
        • There is over 900+ php scripts.
  2. Search php scripts for the string password

    • Instructions:
      1. Hostname/IP:
        • www.cnn.com; find /var/www/html/mutillidae -name "*.php" | xargs grep -i "password" | grep "="
      2. Click the Lookup DNS button
      3. View your Results (Continue to next step).
  3. Obtain password from search results
    • Notes (FYI):
      • Now you have to look closely to see the string password and the actual password "samurai".
    • Instructions:
      1. Notice that the MySQLHandler.php contains the following string:
        • $mMySQLDatabasePassword = "samurai";
  4. Search MySQLHandler.php for the strings user OR login
    • Notes (FYI):
      • We now know that MySQLHandler.php contains the database password.
      • The only thing left it to obtain the database username for the password samarai.
    • Instructions:
      1. Hostname/IP:
        • www.cnn.com; find /var/www/html/mutillidae -name "MySQLHandler.php" | xargs egrep -i '(user|login)' | grep "="

      2. Notice the MySQL connection method.
        • mMySQLConnection = new mysqli($HOSTNAME, $USERNAME, $SAMURAI_WTF_PASSWORD);
  6. Display MySQLHandler.php
    • Notes (FYI):
      • I guess I could have showed you this first, but good things come to those that wait.
      • It is possible to display the contents of the MySQLHandler.php program, by encoding the "<?php" and "?>" tags.  These tags tell apache to execute a php script.  To get around this problem and just display the text of the program, we change "<" to "&#60;" and ">" to "&#62;".
    • Instructions:
      1. Hostname/IP:
        • www.cnn.com; find /var/www/html/mutillidae -name "MySQLHandler.php" | xargs cat | sed 's/</\&#60;/g' | sed 's/>/\&#62;/g'
      2. Click the Lookup DNS button
      3. View your Results (Continue to next step).
  7. Viewing the Code
    • Notes (FYI):
      • Kind of scary,,, right?
      • Typically, you should never put authentication information into a program that accesses a database on the web.
    • Instructions:
      1. Database Username
        • static public $mMySQLDatabaseUsername = "root";
      2. Database Password

Metasploitable 2 vulnerability assessment

A vulnerability assessment is a crucial part in every penetration test and is the process of identifying and assessing vulnerabilities on a target system. In this part of the tutorial we will be assessing the vulnerabilities available on the network side of the Metasploitable 2 virtual machine. We will be assessing the web applications on the Metasploitable 2 machine in a later tutorial. In the previous Metasploit enumeration and fingerprinting tutorial we’ve learned that the Metasploitable 2 machine contains a lot of vulnerabilities. We have collected valuable information about the target system which we will be using to find known vulnerabilities both on- and offline. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities will be demonstrated in the next exploitation tutorial. In this tutorial we will be looking at a few different ways to perform vulnerability analysis. We will be manually searching for exploits, use scanning tools like Nmap with scripts and we will be...

10 Security Vulnerabilities That Broke the World Wide Web in 2016

Information security is a subject in cyber-world which we can’t think away anymore. Data breaches can cost millions when sensitive information is leaked on the Internet. Zero-day exploits pop up for sale every day in deep web forums in return for Bitcoins. However, few exploits are disclosed in public domain once the vulnerability is patched by the vendor. This past year, we had over 6400 common vulnerabilities and exposures which were issued a CVE ID. There were few major bug fixes by the vendors serving backbone of the Internet. Here is the list of top 10 security vulnerabilities which came to light this year. 1. Dirty Cow (CVE-2016-5195) Discovered by Phil Oester,  Dirty Cow , is a kernel vulnerability that allows any unprivileged existing user to escalate its privilege to root. Root is the highest privilege on any UNIX or LINUX system, which has access to all the files. This vulnerability is known as privilege escalation. COW (Change on Write) is a technique used by Linux to re...
