Vulnerability Exploited:
Anonymous ftp access allows you to download a mdb file which once reviewed gives you a password for the zip file.
Once zip file is extracted there is a telnet password for security in the outlook backup file.
Privilege Escalation:
Runas to get reverse nc shell.
Exploiting the host:
Nmap
Anonymous access to FTP allowed so download the files
Found the password within the backup.mdb file [email protected]
Use this password to extract access control.zip
Which gives you what looks to be an outlook backup
Install outlook in a windows vm and import the pst file
Use these creds to login via telnet security:4Cc3ssC0ntroller
Grab the user flag
User is low priv
There is a sql service script within the C:\temp dir
Which has credentials of sa:[email protected]
Good chance we have to open the mssql service and exploit that to get root
Can’t find sql server running so must be a false positive/ rabbit hole.
Download nc to the machine and run with runas
Receive a root shell
Collect your flag
