HackTheBox - A step-by-step walkthrough of different machines "

项目说明

Hack The Box Lab Writeups

Starting out in Cybersecurity, HackTheBox (HTB) has been the go-to resource provided to me or anyone interested in Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking for that matter.

Retired Machines Machines

HTB's Acti are free to access, upon signing up. Accessing the retired machines, which come with a HTB issued walkthrough PDF as well as an associated walkthrough from Ippsec are exclusive to paid subscribers.

HackTheBox doesn't provide writeups for Acti and as a result, I will not be doing so either. Having said that, I *might* include some later on, albeit password-protected PDF's to maintain integrity.

HackTheBox in relation to OSCP Prep

Another reason for myself attempting the boxes on the HTB platform is to help me prepare for the OSCP course & exam. As a result, my writeups will have an additional to root machines - manual exploitation and pri escalation in addition to automated exploitation with tools like Metasploit, which are not allowed in the OSCP exam.

Accessing the VM's

The HTB platform uses an Open to access the labs and machines. Once signed up, the connection pack can be downloaded as an .ovpn file and imported using the Open.

TJnull's OSCP Prep VM's

TJnull and the team at NetSec Focus ha a list of HackTheBox VM's that are a pathway to getting started, building practical skills and preparing for the OSCP in the HTB tab.

I ha the table and fed it into this repository and will be ticking off the columns as I move down the line.
