![]() | vulnerability via the Content-Type header. | Apache Struts 2.3.5 - Struts 2.3.31 and Apache Struts 2.5 - Struts 2.5.10 are vulnerable to a Remote Code Execution | Apache Struts Remote Code Execution Vulnerability ZENMAP NSE FULLCaution, it is not comprehensive enough to replace a full fledged commercial vulnerability scanner. ![]() ![]() NSE script can be used to scan for literately hundreds of known vulnerabilities. You can however, use metaploit auxiliary functions to scan and identify vulnerabilities without any restrictions during the exam. However, OSCP exam's goal is to teach one to fully understand an exploit's internal working, metaploit unfortunately, makes it too easy to pawn, hence, why its usage is severely limited. Speaking from my experience, I opine that metasploit is an essential tool in penetration testing. Think of it like a lifeline if you would. Meaning, you can only use it to exploit 1 vulnerability out of the 5 boxes that you had to root. The usage of metasploit was limited to once per exam. The above example illustrate the usage of nmap on port 80 to identify a web vulnerability in Ruby on Rails. Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.45 seconds | !msg/rubyonrails-security/61bkgvnSGTQ/nehwjA8tQ8EJ | The attackers don't need to be authenticated to exploit these vulnerabilities. | All Ruby on Rails versions before 2.3.15, 3.0.x before 3.0.19, 3.1.x before 3.1.10, and 3.2.x before 3.2.11 are vulnerable to object injection, remote command execution and denial of service attacks. | Parameter parsing vulnerabilities in several versions of Ruby on Rails allow object injection, remote command execution and Denial Of Service attacks (CVE-2013-0156) Among other tools such as burpsuite, nikto, dirbuster, owasp-zap, I found nmap's nse script insanely useful for vulnerability detection. Nmap has built-in NSE(Network Scripting Engine) capability for network discovery, backdoor detection, vulnerability detection and even exploitation. However, the usage of nmap nse script was allowed. When I sat for the OSCP exam, automated vulnerability scanners were banned. ![]()
