Disk acquisition and access

 Goal for this lab is after we acquire the disk in .E01 format then how can we mount this to linux system for analysis. 

দুইটা scenario cover করছি: (A) simple E01 + LVM (single disk), (B) E01 + Software RAID + LVM (multi-disk, যেমন disk1/disk2)

From the linux analysis vm like sansforensic vm, you need to run the following commands. 

We need to first create the working directories:

mkdir -p /mnt/case/img /mnt/case/data

E01 + LVM (single disk) - First case.

Step 1 — E01 mount:

ewfmount Webserver.E01 /mnt/case/img

ls -lh /mnt/case/img

total 0 

-r--r--r-- 1 root root 32G Feb 16 18:21 ewf1

Ewf1 is a raw disk image. It's size and main disk size are same. This is in read-only mode. See the permission.

Step 2 — See the partition layout:

mmls /mnt/case/img/ewf1

কোন offset-এ কোন partition আছে (boot, lvm ইত্যাদি) note করুন। RAID sign (0xfd) আছে কিনা খেয়াল করুন — থাকলে Scenario B তে যান।

Step 3 — Non-LVM partition (যেমন /boot) check:

fsstat -o 2048 /mnt/test/img/ewf1 (-o 2048)

or

fsstat -o <boot_start_sector*512> /mnt/case/img/ewf1 (-o 2048*512 = 1048576)

Why we are multiplying it by 512? See the above image. It is written that Units are in 512-byte sectors.

Unmounted Improperly means, it did not shutdown properly. 

Step 4 — Now we need to make LVM partition for loopback device:

losetup -rf -o $((<lvm_start_sector>*512)) /mnt/case/img/ewf1

losetup -rf -o $((501760*512)) /mnt/case/img/ewf1

losetup -a (Using this command we can know which loopback device it got. In this case loop0)

file -s /dev/loop0 (It will confirm whether this is LVM2 PV or not.The file command tells us that the loopback device is pointing to a Linux LVM v2 Physical Volume (“LVM2 PV”). So we are on the right track!)

We are using case directory here instead of test directory. 


Step 5 — LVM activation:

API hacking lab setup

 Follow the commands to install and configure API hacking lab: 1. Install kali linux and update all the packages.  apt update -y apt upgrade -y or apt dist-upgrade -y or apt full-upgrade -y If you face any problem regarding update, install cloud flare warp in the host machine, then again start updating packages in your kali vm.  2.

Privilege Escalation Domain Level PowerUp - Part - 2

  Our target is first escalate our local privs to local admin level. Then we will hunt for to check we have the local admin privs to which other machines. Then we will check on those machines, any domain admin sessions are available or not.  Unquoted service path check: Get-WmiObject -class win32_service | Select-Object pathname From powerup: Get-ServiceUnquoted -Verbose Get services where the current user can write to its binary path or change arguments to the binary: Get-ModifiableServiceFile -Verbose Get the services whose configuration current user can modify, if you are in server operator group then you can do this: Get-ModifiableService -Verbose Or we can run all the above checks from using powerup.ps1 script: . .\PowerUp.ps1 Invoke-AllChecks help Invoke-ServiceAbuse -Examples Invoke-ServiceAbuse -Name AbyssWebServer -UserName dcorp\student15     (Here AbyssWebServer is the abuseable service name that you come to know after running Invoke-AllChecks command) Wh...

How to use vim efficiently

  Here every command works in command mode . And if you need to write something then you need to go to Insert mode . Pressing i will take you to the insert mode.  1. Let's say you want to search something. For example you want to find avi keyword. Then first you need to go to the command mode by typing Esc . Now type /avi  (at the bottom) and hit enter. Press small n to forward this search pattern and press Shift N to go reverse.  2. Substitute something: :%s/old string/new string/g    (g for affecting globally) 3. If you want to pick the 1st letter of word then press w and last letter of word then press e .  4. yy means copy a single line. 2yy means copy double lines.  5. Shift P is for paste.  6. Shift D to delete a line or cut a line.  7. Press o to go a new line.  8. Press Home to go to the 1st letter of a line and End to go to the last letter of a line.  9. If you want to save the file then press wq! . 10. If ...
