The best programming languages to learn in We shall begin in this paper by covering the basics of exploitation execution using msfconsole and msfcli and compromising a target based on a discovered vulnerability.
The researcher is supposed to be quite handy with the operating of Metasploit commands and familiar with configuring several security settings such as firewall, port configuration, etc. Moreover, the user machine must be configured with the subsequent tools:. The Windows server is still used in several organizations to manipulate web servers, database servers, directory servers, FTP servers, and mail servers, but unfortunately it runs with several vulnerabilities, which easily attracts vicious hackers for unauthorized penetration.
The question is how the hackers exploit an unpatched operating system, in fact the modus operandi of illicit infiltration. If the target is live, then port scanning should be performed, which determines the status of all TCP and UDP ports; either they are open or closed on the target machines. If a network service is vulnerable, then the attacker might be able to use that information to speed up the vulnerability analysis process. We can encounter the port scanning method by one of the special tools, for instance Nmap or Metasploit itself.
Nmap has come into favor and is in fact a built-in vulnerability assessment tool of Backtrack or Kali Linux, and directly runs in the command shell, and generally asks the target IP address or DNS name as a parameter.
So, we could penetrate that computer by exploiting these open services. We can also enumerate the open service on a target computer by using Metasploit port scanning exploits itself. In this odyssey, run the msfconsole and first search the available port scanning exploits modules in the msfconsole as follows:.
Therefore, we move ahead with the SYN scanning method. So, choose the port scanning exploit with the use command as follows:. Every exploit has specific options or parameters which can be displayed by the show options command as follows:. Note that this exploit requires the pcaprub module to be installed first in the Metasploit in order to scan the open port on the target computer. We can configure this as follows:. Finally, run the exploit using the run command and it shall produce the list of open ports on the target computer as follows:.
The exploit will only execute while the target host has a vulnerability which still remains unpatched. Hence you would have to use a particular vulnerability scanner. Alternately, if your port scanner shows a particular port open, you can try all exploits for that particular port and see whether any one is successful carried out or not.
The forthcoming demonstration regarding accessing the remote shell involves exploiting the common MS vulnerability, especially found on Windows Server and Windows XP operating system.
Metasploit can pair any Windows exploit with any Windows payload such as bind or reverse tcp. So, we can choose the MS vulnerability to exploit or open a command shell as well as create an administrator account or start a remote VNC session on the victim computer.
This vulnerability can be protected from hackers by patching the operating system, or by enabling a firewall to filter unwanted traffic and having installed an anti-virus with the latest signatures. We shall exploit the SMB port vulnerability of the target computer where Windows Server is running.
There are numerous ways to access the Reverse shell DOS command prompt of the target, but we shall encounter with msfconsole and msfcli to achieve the objective. First open the msfconsole. Thereafter, it is mandatory to have comprehensive information about a particular exploit, e.
So, there is another way to get rid of this problem. As we know, we are exploiting the SMB port vulnerability, so it is obvious to have an SMB related exploit in our pocket.
