MonitorsThree

Last updated
MonitorsThree is a medium linux machine created by ruycr4ft and kavigihan. The http service hosts the monitorsthree.htb domain. The vhost cacti.monitorsthree.htb uses the cacti version 1.2.26 which is vulnerable to CVE-2024-25641 arbitrary file write vulnerability. The domain has forget-password.php which is vulnerable to sql injection and the cacti login credentials is gained. CVE-2024-25641 is exploited using the gained credentials which gives us a shell as www-data. The cacti config file has a mysql crediantials. Logging into the mysql database gives us the marcus user password, we change the user to marcus and fetch the id_rsa for ssh login. The marcus runs the duplicati service in port 8200, we can bypass the duplicati login and exploit to gain the shell as root.

The previously released Monitors and MonitorsTwo machinces are vulnerable to sql injection and command injection, the vhost cacti or domain uses the cacti service and the user marcus is present.

The monitorsthree provides the networking solutions to the businesses.
The login page provides us the login form and forget password form is vulnerable to sql injection. It is also conformed that the user admin is present because the password reset instruction is send successfully. The payload I have used for identifying the sql injection is given below.
admin'OR'1'='1The syntax error conforms that the database is MariaDB database.
The vhost cacti is present and it is using cacti version 1.2.26 which is vulnerable to CVE-2024-25641 and can be exploited using metasploit once we get the cacti login credentials.
The sql injection found in domain is exploited using sqlmap for gaining cacti login credentials.
Intercept the forget password request using burpsuite.
Copy and paste the request into the file.

* Keyspace..: 14344385
Cracking performance lower than expected?
* Append -w 3 to the commandline.
This can cause your screen to lag.
* Append -S to the commandline.
This has a drastic speed impact but can be better for specific attacks.
Typical scenarios are a small wordlist but a large ruleset.
* Update your backend API runtime / driver the right way:

* Create more work items to make use of your parallelization power:

sqlite> The login.js has a login logic. It can be used to craft the password and authenticate our-self.
var saltedpwd = CryptoJS.SHA256(CryptoJS.enc.Hex.parse(CryptoJS.enc.Utf8.parse($('#login-password').val()) + CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse(data.Salt)));
var noncedpwd = CryptoJS.SHA256(CryptoJS.enc.Hex.parse(CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse(data.Nonce) + saltedpwd)).toString(CryptoJS.enc.Base64);The salt value is converted into base64 and then into hexdecimal.
Intercept the duplicati login request using burpsuite. Don't forward the login.cgi POST request with password parameter and get the nounce. The salt also matches with the duplicati database.
Convert the server-passphrase value into base64 and then into hexadecimal.
echo Wb6e855L3sN9LTaCuwPXuautswTIQbekmMAr7BrK2Ho= | base64 -d | xxd -p -c 128
59be9ef39e4bdec37d2d3682bb03d7b9abadb304c841b7a498c02bec1acad87aOnce we get the above hex we can generate the valid password using above hex and nounce.
Open the dev-tool console and paste the below code.
var saltedpwd = '59be9ef39e4bdec37d2d3682bb03d7b9abadb304c841b7a498c02bec1acad87a';
var noncedpwd = CryptoJS.SHA256(CryptoJS.enc.Hex.parse(CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse('FDes7AvOEeG0FvjYjZRI2Cn0NojhpthKsIuxvsbzF+I=') + saltedpwd)).toString(CryptoJS.enc.Base64);
console.log(noncedpwd);Copy the printed string in console and paste it into password paramater. URL encode the password by pressing Ctrl + U then forward the request.
If successful we will get the duplicati index page or we will get the authentication fail alter.
The accessed duplicati can be used to copy the content of the system and restore it into marcus home directory or vice-versa. I tried backing up the id_rsa of root user but it was not present. The marcus has a authorized_keys file in /home/marcus/.ssh directory which we can backup and restore it into /root/.ssh directory and we can ssh into root from marus.
Create the backup of authorized_keys and restore it into the /root/.ssh directory.
