Pentesting, scripting and dumb ideas!
Control systems remotely by uploading files to Google Drive, OneDrive, Youtube or Telegram using Python to create the files and the listeners. It allows to create text files, images, audio or videos, with the commands in cleartext or encrypted using AES.
Releasing http-protocol-exfil, a tool that uses the HTTP protocol version to send a file bit by bit (“HTTP/1.0” is a 0 and “HTTP/1.1” is a 1). It uses GET requests so the Blue Team would only see the requests to your IP address.
A program to control systems remotely by uploading videos to Youtube using Python to create the videos and the listener, similar to some malware I was reading about. It allows to create videos with frames formed of simple text, QR codes with cleartext or QR codes using AES encryption.
A scenario where we have to upload files to a server whose MSSQL credentials we know (so we have remote code execution) but the server is in other network. For that, we will transfer the base64-encoded file line by line.
AlphaWeb XE, the embedded web server running on AlphaCom XE, has a vulnerability which allows to upload PHP files leading to RCE once the authentication is successful.
In this post I will explain a simplified scenario in which we could abuse the SSPR functionality of Azure to update the password of an expired “Domain Admin” user account in the Windows AD.
Dumping the Lsass process to get the passwords stored in memory in a Windows machine is one of the most common uses of Mimikatz. However, there are stealthier methods to do this, such as using custom code. Doing so, we can customize the dump file name, using the hostname and date as name and harmless extensions such as “.txt” instead of “.dmp”.

After some minutes of inactivity, Microsoft automatically changes our state from “Available” to “Away”. There are some methods to avoid this, but in this case I will show how I do it by using the scripting language AHK
This vulnerability takes advantage of ServiceDesk Plus having different output in the password recovery functionality: if the user exists it returns a message claiming an email has been sent but if it does not exist the message is constant.
Adfsbrute is a script to test credentials against Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), calculating the ADFS url of an organization and allowing password spraying or bruteforce attacks. In case the company does not use a custom ADFS sign-in page, it will carry out the attack against Office 365’s Microsoft Server Active Sync url.
Ntds-analyzer is a tool to extract and analyze the hashes in Ntds.dit files after cracking the LM and NTLM hashes in it. It offers relevant information about the Active Directory’s passwords, such as the most common used ones or which accounts use the username as password. Also, it offers an extra functionality: it calculates the NTLM hash value from the LM hash when only the latter has been cracked (we will explain this later!).
This is a WiFi Pentesting guide I wrote some time ago after years carrying out WiFi pentests (and a BSc thesis about this topic). I received many questions from colleagues so I decided to share most of my knowledge and prepared VMs for some specific attacks.
particles.js is a lightweight JavaScript library for creating particles.
Description: Call the ret2win() function, the caveat this time is that the third argument (which you know by now is stored in the rdx register on x86_64 Linux) must be 0xdeadcafebabebeef
Description: There’s only enough space for a three-link chain on the stack but you’ve been given space to stash a much larger ROP chain elsewhere. Learn how to pivot the stack onto a new location.

Description: The concept here is identical to the write4 challenge. The only difference is we may struggle to find gadgets that will get the job done.

Description: An arbitrary write challenge with a twist; certain input characters get mangled before finding their way onto the stack

Description: We’ll be looking for gadgets that let us write a value to memory such as mov [reg], reg.

Description: You must call callme_one(), callme_two() and callme_three() in that order, each with the arguments 1,2,3 e.g. callme_one(1,2,3) to print the flag. The solution here is simple enough, use your knowledge about what resides in the PLT to call the callme_ functions in the above order and with the correct arguments.

Description: That useful string “/bin/cat flag.txt” is still present in this binary, as is a call to system(). It’s just a case of finding them and chaining them together to make the magic happen.

Description: Locate a method within the binary that you want to call and do so by overwriting a saved return address on the stack.
