Bài Thực Hành Metasploit Framework Lesson 9 : Exploiting the Grub Menu to Gain the Root Password


Section 0. Background Information
  1. Metasploitable 
  2. Pre-Requisite Lab
    • Metasploitable  : Lesson 1: Downloading and Configuring
     
  3. Ubuntu 8.04 Physical Exploit.
    • This lab illustrates how easy it is to compromise the root password (1) if you have physical access to the machine, and (2) don't know the root password.
    • A counter-measure to this exploit, is to set the power-on password.
  4. Lab Notes
    • In this lab we will do the following:
      1. We will access the Grub menu during the boot process.
      2. We will edit the Grub menu to boot into single user mode.
      3. We will change the root password.

Hack the Gibson VM (CTF Challenge)

It’s a boot2root challenge and it does not get over with getting root access. You have to find flag also. So let’s start. First of all download lab from https://download.vulnhub.com/gibson/gibson.ova Now open kali terminal and like always start with first step i.e. netdiscover netdiscover it shows all the hosts those are up in our network and from here we get our target ip. Target IP: 192.168.1.6 As our target is all set we are going to scan it with nmap which will show all the open ports. In this case open ports are only two i.e. 22 and 80. nmap –p- -A 192.168.1.6 As from the above result we have got 80 port open so we will open target ip in browser. It shows an accessible directory. Let’s try opening it as we cannot see anything important here. Oh no such luck with this also. It’s written the result will be found by brute force but there is no place where we can apply brute force. As we do not have any other option so let’s just go to view page source to see if we could get a...

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...

CEH v9 (CEHVIETNAM.COM) - Hacking Metasploitable Lab

CEH v9 : Hacking Metasploitable VM In this guide, I will demonstrate how to root a Metasploitable 2 virtual machine. Metasploitable is an intentionally vulnerable Ubuntu machine. I’ll explore just a few of the many ways Metasploitable can be attacked, from vulnerabilities in common services to little known exploits and web vulnerabilities. I’ve set up Kali Linux and Metasploitable VMs in VirtualBox on the same network (bridged mode).
