TryHackMe - Gaming Server
Gaming Server is an easy Boot2Root box for beginners. In this box/machine, we need know how about decrypting ssh private key and escalate the privilege via lxs
Summary
- fuzzing webpath
- find ssh private key and decrypt using john2ripper or hashcat
- lxd privilege escalation
Network Scanning
find open ports using nmap

let’s try to login using john as username and letmein as password
Privilege Escalation
find suid
we found lxd,and we can follow the intructions from Hackingarticle.in about lxd privilege escalation.
download lxd alpine builder https://github.com/saghul/lxd-alpine-builder.git and ./build as root,and then upload to target machine
lxc import image
find root.txt
