Lame Hackthebox Writeup in 2023

Описание: Hello everyone, welcome back to our HackTheBox series. Today, we're diving into the Machine LAME. In our previous attempts, we've tried to execute an exploit, but it's been failing every time. This exploit is related to a command execution vulnerability in Samba versions 3.0.20 through 3.0.25rc3.

This vulnerability comes into play when using the non-default 'username map script' configuration option. By specifying a username containing shell meta characters, attackers can execute arbitrary commands. What makes this vulnerability particularly dangerous is that no authentication is needed to exploit it. This is because the 'username map script' option is used to map usernames before authentication.

That's all for today's episode on the LAME machine from HackTheBox. Stay tuned for more insights and walkthroughs. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe. Until next time, stay safe and happy hacking.
