#hack100days Day83: Hands on keyboard today! Worked on a pair of TryHackMe boxes. One down pretty quickly. Some progress on the second. Using msfconsole and msfvenom on that one. Issue w/getting handler and payload to match. Don't use it a whole lot, so more googling than I like. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day82: Read ch 4 of _Web Application Hacker’s Handbook_. #infosec #cososec #enumallthethings
#hack100days Day81: Started Practical Web Application Security and Testing class from mttaggart #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day80: Read ch 3 of _Web Application Hacker’s Handbook_. #infosec #cososec (fixed unfortunate typo)
#hack100days Day 79: Didn’t make time to get hands on keyboard today. Started _Web Application Hacker's Handbook_ and got through first two chapters. While it’s 11 years old, still seems pretty relevant. #infosec #cososec #authn #authz #inputvalidation
#hack100days Day78: Went along with the Alh4zr3d stream on a PG Play box. Rated as hard. Got a bead on the foothold. Slowing down to make some notes. Make brain wrinkles and have something to come back to in the future--tags, MF! #infosec #cososec #tags #sqli #weakasspasswords
#hack100days Day77: I finished last night's target on Offsec PG Practice. Started in on a new one today. Bluekeep is a spooky vuln. Should be done w/that one soon. #infosec #cososec #patchyoshit
#hack100days Day76: Listened in on a couple of twitch streams by Alh4zr3d and mmtaggart. Poked at a Winderz box on offsec proving grounds. #infosec #cososec #alwaysbeenumerating
#hack100days Day75: Got my CTF prize, a month-long access to Offsec Proving Grounds Practice, so started on that. Hitting the first easy box. Basic enumeration in-flight. SSH, DNS, and two web services and and two mqueue listeners. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day74: Found a user w/low priv on the HtB box--based on the hostname, I took a flyer at a username I thought would match. Was able to use it to enumerate some additional users. Now brute-forcing for passwords. No school like the old school. Really wish folks would use fasttrack.txt for password brute forcing. Fairly long list of users, so this will take a while. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day73: Took a crack at today's release on HtB. Bunch of enumeration. Still poking around to find entry point. Not a webserver and I'm out of practice on anything but web servers, so this is good. Slow. But good. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day72.1: Update. I eventually figured the pivot—“pcap, or it didn’t happen!” Learned a bit more about Docker and worked on Wireshark skill. Ended up w/in top 10 and got a cyberrange voucher from the prize pool. I reckon there were between 50 and 100 people taking a crack at it. #infosec #cososec #hackinonthepatio
#hack100days Day72: Continued banging on ctf. Limited rce was sneaky rabbit hole. Found correct path to get shell. New one on me, so that was fun. Working on pivot point. This one's a little tougher. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day71: almost forgot to log it. Watched a stream. Hacked on a ctf. Figured out limited rce, but stumped on turning it into something really useful. It’ll be on tomorrow, so maybe a fresh look after sleep and coffee. #infosec #cososec #ctf
#hack100days Day70: More work on HtB Academy & ffuf. Made some progress and then stalled. Looks like word list choice is finicky. Read this article and found it pretty interesting: https://blog.includesecurity.com/2022/07/hunting-for-mass-assignment-vulnerabilities-using-github-codesearch-and-grep-app/. Signed up for the beta of git CodeSearch. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day69: More work on HtB Academy & ffuf. One more exercise to complete. Also kibbutzed on Al4zr3d stream while he walked through a couple of TryHackMe boxes. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day68: More work on Hack the Box Academy and on the ffuf module. Not making it through it as fast as I would like. Practice make perfect! #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day67: Hack the Box Academy, did the ffuf module. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day66: Took a quick look at an Offsec Proving Grounds Play box. Found an LFI. Have a couple of users. Didn't find anything else terribly fun. Making a run at brute forcing a password. #infosec #cososec
#hack100days Day65: Looked at the CTF again. No new challenges. Did more enum on one of the remaining, but didn't make progress. Hit Offsec Proving Grounds Play and pwned "Dawn", so that helped recover some ego. #infosec #cososec
Muddling through.
