6 posts tagged with "Web Site Structure Discovery"

Web site structure discovery involves identifying and mapping the underlying architecture of a website, including its folders, files, and interlinking pages. This process helps understand how the site is organized, which components are crucial for its functionality, and where potential vulnerabilities or security weaknesses may exist. Web site structure discovery can be performed using tools like directory scanners, web crawlers, and HTTP analyzers.

Summary:

We test connectivity, scan, and enumerate the target website. We discover a PHP type juggling vulnerability and exploit it to gain access to the admin file uploads directory. Using this access, we upload a web shell via the upload functionality. Enumerating the system with our new tool, we find clear text credentials that grant us user-level SSH access. We then escalate to root by exploiting sudo using find. Finally, we grab the root flag.
