The one thing that would've made Cypher perfect as a metaphor would be if instead of the crew killing him after discovering his treachery, the Agents had killed him once was no longer useful

I would not be surprised if this is true.

Matrix Breakout: 2 Morpheus
Hello everyone, it's been a while. :)
Tumblr media
Haven't been posting much recently as I haven't really done anything noteworthy- I've just been working on methodologies for different types of penetration tests, nothing interesting enough to write about!
However, I have my methodologies largely covered now and so I'll have the time to do things again. There are a few things I want to look into, particularly binary exploit development and OS level security vulnerabilities, but as a bit of a breather I decided to root Morpheus from VulnHub.
Tumblr media
It is rated as medium to hard, however I don't feel there's any real difficulty to it at all.
Initial Foothold
Run the standard nmap scans and 3 open ports will be discovered:
Port 22: SSH
Port 80: HTTP
Port 31337: Elite
I began with the web server listening at port 80.
Tumblr media
The landing page is the only page offered- directory enumeration isn't possible as requests to pages just time out. However, there is the hint to "Follow the White Rabbit", along with an image of a rabbit on the page. Inspecting the image of the rabbit led to a hint in the image name- p0rt_31337.png. Would never have rooted this machine if I'd known how unrealistic and CTF-like it was. *sigh*
Tumblr media
The above is the landing page of the web server listening at port 31337, along with the page's source code. There's a commented out paragraph with a base64 encoded string inside.
The string as it is cannot be decoded, however the part beyond the plus sign can be- it decodes to 'Cypher.matrix'.
Tumblr media
This is a file on the web server at port 31337 and visiting it triggers a download. Open the file in a text editor and see this voodoo:
Tumblr media
Upon seeing the ciphertext, I was immediately reminded of JSFuck. However, it seemed to include additional characters. It took me a little while of looking around before I came across this cipher identifier.
Tumblr media
I'd never heard of Brainfuck, but I was confident this was going to be the in-use encryption cipher due to the similarity in name to JSFuck. So, I brainfucked the cipher and voila, plaintext. :P
Tumblr media
Here, we are given a username and a majority of the password for accessing SSH apart from the last two character that were 'forgotten'.
I used this as an excuse to use some Python- it's been a while and it was a simple script to create. I used the itertools and string modules.
Tumblr media
The script generates a password file with the base password 'k1ll0r' along with every possible 2-character combination appended. I simply piped the output into a text file and then ran hydra.
Tumblr media
The password is eventually revealed to be 'k1ll0r7n'. Surely enough this grants access to SSH; we are put into an rbash shell with no other shells immediately available. It didn't take me long to discover how to bypass this- I searched 'rbash escape' and came across this helpful cheatsheet from PSJoshi. Surely enough, the first suggested command worked:
Tumblr media
The t flag is used to force tty allocation, needed for programs that require user input. The "bash --noprofile" argument will cause bash to be run; it will be in the exec channel rather than the shell channel, thus the need to force tty allocation.
Privilege Escalation
With access to Bash commands now, it is revealed that we have sudo access to everything, making privilege escalation trivial- the same rbash shell is created, but this time bash is directly available.
Tumblr media
Thoughts
I did enjoy working on Morpheus- the CTF element of it was fun, and I've never came across rbash before so that was new.
However, it certainly did not live up to the given rating of medium to hard. I'm honestly not sure why it was given such a high rating as the decoding and decryption elements are trivial to overcome if you have a foundational knowledge of hacking and there is alot of information on bypassing rbash.
It also wasn't realistic in any way, really, and the skills required are not going to be quite as relevant in real-world penetration testing (except from the decoding element!)

Matrix Analysis - The Sinister Call Of The Blue Pill
youtube
Hello again. So recently with the rise of popularity centered around the matrix, I figured I'd make a video and small discussion based around the movie concepts and how it applies to the world we currently live in today... with the main focus being the blue pill and the red pill and what they inherently mean when applying it to our actual reality.
As we know in the movie the matrix a blue pill refers to a human who is not aware of the false reality the matrix is, a red pill is the polar opposite... it refers to a human who is aware of the true nature of the matrix and the false reality that it places upon you.
When it comes to our world, I relate the blue pill to the script laid out for most individuals today. What I mean by that is the blue pill/script would be the life that is preached to a majority of people to live by... most typically being "go to school, get a job, get a wife" and or the false spread of information or information that doesn't matter to keep you distracted. It goes even deeper too.
On the other hand, the red pill is basically a person "waking up" from this narrative of a life laid out for you. It allows one to understand that there are more avenues to life than the one you may have been preached, that there's more information to a scenario with the spread of information. Unfortunately, with the red pill route, it opens up other avenues of information you yourself may have not been privy to before hand.
With this spread of new information comes the burden of navigating life in a completely different way. It makes the journey a great deal harder to abide by. Most people aren't prepared for such a journey thus comes the sinister call... of the blue pill. In the movie The Matrix, Cypher betrays his allies to go back into the matrix because he believes ignorance to be bliss, he believes that the journey is not worth it and that it's too hard, thus would rather be ignorant to the reality around him and go on living his life as planned out within the Matrix.
Many people in our reality truly wish they could do the same thing, that they wouldn't have become privy to the information they've come to learn and thus I refer to it as a sinister call because unlike the movie we can't actually take a pill to forget what we've come to learn. That begs the question...was waking up worth it to begin with.
Please watch the video as I dive deeper into the matter!
Reblog as well! Thank you!

the Smith-Cypher dynamic.....just this closeted cop being driven to absolute despair by the life he's supposed to lead, but any alternative is unthinkable because the thought of being "infected" by the cave orgy communists is too terrifying. and the only other queer person he's ever had a conversation with is the dentrans guy

the problem is I saw The Matrix at formative age, heard Cypher utter 'Ignorance's bliss', thought yeah the dude's right and been like that ever since
