226 Transfer complete

Download all files and extract the files, which are password protected.

Cracking password

fcrackzip -u -D -p /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt file.zip

Use the above tool to crack the password, an alternative way to crack the password is to use zip2john tool to create hash for the zip files and then later use john to crack the hashes.

After trying to crack passwords for all the files, the process resulted in failure except for files tom.zip and catherine.zip.

Extract the zip files using the passwords and use the id_rsa key to login to the remote machine using SSH.

The user tom has restricted shell rbash. Use the below technique to bypass the restriction.

vi
:set shell=/bin/bash
:shell

The user has a .mysql_history file in the machine, which we can check for passwords.

tom@funbox2:~$ ls -al

The file has the password for user tom.

insert\040into\040support\040(tom,\040█████████);

Privilege Escalation

After checking the permissions for the user tom he has ALL the permissions in the machine which allows us to get root shell using sudo su and user tom password.

User tom may run the following commands on funbox2:
    (ALL : ALL) ALL

Root obtained
