HTB Keeper: Formal Writeup

·820 words·4 mins· loading · loading
Synopsis: # Keeper is a Linux easy machine that hosts the Request Ticket (RT 4.4.4) web application. A password for the user lnorgaard was found in the web application, which was then used to log into the host via SSH. Upon logging in as lnorgaard, a zip file for the KeePass application was found. Unzipping the file revealed a dump file and a database file. The KeePass dump files are vulnerable to CVE-2023–32784, which allows an attacker to dump the master password. After cracking the database file, a PuTTY key was found. This key was then converted into an SSH key, which allowed the attacker to compromise the entire host.
