@RealTryHackMe #AdventOfCyber Series: Challenge 5 – He Knows When You’re Awake #TisTheSeasonForHacking

Another day, another challenge…

In this post, we’re starting a new series, the Advent of Cyber, hosted by TryHackMe. This is the fourth year of the Advent of Cyber, where a challenge is released every day leading to Christmas. There will be 25 challenges; we’re McSkidy, an elf trying to save Christmas.

In our fifth challenge, elf Recon McRed is searching the network to see if there are any backdoors that Bandit Yeti APT group have left behind.

The topics explored in this challenge are remote access services such as SSH, RDP, and VNC. Authentication, techniques to attack passwords, and finally how to hack an authentication service. Tools explored in this challenge were nmap (network mapper) and hydra.

Can Recon McRed figure out if Bandit Yeti APT Group left any backdoors in the web server? Find out below!
