I've been reading and coding my way through the book "Black Hat Python" by Justin Seitz and really enjoying it. I'm only about halfway through it s far, but I've enjoyed it so much I wanted to share my experience so far. csuttles/ctlfish Tooling and dev doodles related to my activities on hackthebox.eu and other ethical hacking endeavors. - csuttles/ctlfish csuttles GitHub You can find the code corresponding to this post in the 'net' directory of this repo Checkpoint - Where am I now?

It's been a while since I posted a writeup, and a machine I really enjoyed was recently retired from hackthebox.eu, so here's a walkthrough of Forest. Recon I always start a hackthebox.eu machine by adding the hostname to my /etc/hosts. Here's the output of nmap -sV -O -A -T5 -p- forest [*] Nmap: Nmap scan report for 10.10.10.161 [*] Nmap: Host is up (0.068s latency). [*] Nmap: Not shown: 65511 closed ports [*] Nmap: PORT STATE SERVICE VERSION [*] Nmap: 53/tcp open domain?

I finally got on hackthebox.eu after wanting to go for it for a while. Over the holiday break I leaned in and was able to successfully own 13 machines in 17 days, and achieve the rank of "Pro Hacker". I learned a lot about attacking and defense over the last couple of weeks, and the lessons learned have already paid dividends when I returned to work (at my job that is not InfoSec).

After all the fun I've had doing vulnhub boxes with my friends, I wanted to try to solve one by myself to switch things up a bit. I downloaded DerpNStink: 1 from vulnhub, and got to work. Author Blurb Difficulty: Beginner Description: Mr. Derp and Uncle Stinky are two system administrators who are starting their own company, DerpNStink. Instead of hiring qualified professionals to build up their IT landscape, they decided to hack together their own system which is almost ready to go live.

I got together with my buddies, and we did another "boot to root" Vulnhub box. This time, we did "Wallaby's: Nightmare (v1.0.2)" Author Blurb This is my first boot2root machine. It's beginner-intermediate level. It's been tested in VBox and VMware and seems to work without issues in both. A tip, anything can be a vector, really think things through here based on how the machine works. Make a wrong move though and some stuff gets moved around and makes the machine more difficult!
