Writeups for all of the different CTFs I’ve done, mostly TryHackMe and HackTheBox in prep before starting the private OSCP and Proving Grounds labs. Will be doing more in the future to try to learn more advanced AV evasion and binary exploitation (the latter more for fun than usefulness).
Granny
An easy Windows box from HackTheBox, get initial acces by uploading a webshell, then get root by running a kernel exploit.
Arctic
An easy Windows box from HackTheBox, get initial access via known RCE, then elevate privileges with a kernel exploit.
Blue
An easy Windows box from HackTheBox, enumerate that the box is susceptible to eternal blue and run the exploit to get root.
Bounty
A medium Windows box from HackTheBox, get initial access by bypassing a upload filter and uploading a web shell, then escalate privileges by running a kernel exploit.
Legacy
An easy Windows box from HackTheBox, enumerate that the box is Windows 2000 and vulnerable to MS08-067, run the exploit and get root.
