HackTheBox and TryHackMe Walkthroughs
The machine LinkVortex provides an engaging challenge that combines web exploitation, source code analysis, and privilege escalation. The objective is to uncover vulnerabilities through enumeration, leverage misconfigurations to gain initial access, and exploit poorly implemented security controls to escalate privileges to root. Throughout this writeup, we will demonstrate the step-by-step process of enumeration, exploiting an exposed .git directory, analyzing source code for credentials, and escalating privileges using a vulnerable Bash script with sudo permissions.
Detailed write-up of HackTheBox's UnderPass machine. This guide covers service enumeration, leveraging SNMP and daloRADIUS for initial access, and exploiting mosh-server for privilege escalation. A concise, professional approach to mastering key penetration testing techniques.
