7MS #458: Interview with Tanya Janca

Today we're super excited to share a featured interview with Tanya Janca of WeHackPurple!

Tanya has been in software development from the moment she was of legal age to work in Canada - beginning by working with some huge companies (Nokia/Adobe) before falling in love with application security and eventually starting a company of her own. Gh0sthax and I sat down with Tanya over Zoom to discuss:

  • How to overcome your fears and present at conferences, write blog posts and even start your own company!
  • How to deal with online jackwagons who troll you online at conferences
  • The importance of finding a mentor and mentoring others

Also, here are a bunch of handy links and hashtags Tanya shares throughout the interview:

  • Bob and Alice Learn Application Security - Tanya's book, available on Amazon
  • Women of Security (WoSEC)
  • We Hack Purple Podcast - weekly podcast with a diverse range of guests from all walks of infosec life
  • We Hack Purple Community - "a Canadian company dedicated to helping anyone and everyone create secure software."
  • Tanya's music on Spotify
  • #CyberMentoringMonday - a hashtag that Tanya and other security professionals monitor to help people connect with cyber mentors
  • InsiderPHd - has a safe space for bug bounty hunters to learn and collaborate
  • WeAreHackerz - "You are welcome to join WeAreHackerz if you identify as a person of a marginalized gender, including but not limited to non-binary individuals, women (trans and cis), trans men, genderqueer, etc. We welcome members across all nationalities, races, religions, ages, or other characteristics that make each of us unique."

7MS #593: Hacking Billy Madison - Part 3

7MS #593: Hacking Billy Madison - Part 3

Hey friends, today my Paul and I kept trying to hack the VulnHub machine based on the movie Billy Madison (see part 1 and 2). In our journey we learned some good stuff: Port knocking is awesome using utilities like knock: /opt/knock/knock 10.0.7.124 1466 67 1469 1514 1981 1986 Sending emails via command line is made (fairly) easy with swaks: swaks --to eric@madisonhotels.com --from vvaughn@polyfector.edu --server 192.168.110.105:2525 --body "My kid will be a soccer player" --header "Subject: My kid will be a soccer player" You could also use telnet and do this command by command - see this article from Black Hills Information Security for more info. Hyda works good for spraying FTP creds: hydra -l user -P passlist.txt ftp://192.168.0.1 Check out my quick cheat sheet about bettercap (see episode #522) for some syntax on extracting WPA handshake data from cap files: # ...it looks like the new standard hash type might be m22000 per this article (https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-10253.html). In that case, here's what I did on the pcap itself to get it ready for hashcat: sudo /usr/bin/hcxpcapngtool -o readytocrack.hc22000 wifi-handshakes.pcap # Then crack with hashcat! sudo /path/to/hashcat -m22000 readytocrack.hc2000 wordlist.txt

7MS #591: Tales of Pentest Pwnage - Part 52

Today we talk about an awesome path to internal network pentest pwnage using downgraded authentication from a domain controller, a tool called ntlmv1-multi, and a boatload of cloud-cracking power on the cheap from vast.ai. Here's my chicken scratch notes for how to take the downgraded authentication hash capture (using Responder.py -I eth0 --lm) and eventually tweeze out the NTLM hash of the domain controller (see https://7ms.us for full show notes).

7MS #590: Hacking Billy Madison - Part 2

Today my Paul and I continued hacking Billy Madison (see part one here) and learned some interesting things: You can fuzz a URL with a specific file type using a format like this: wfuzz -c -z file,/root/Desktop/wordlist.txt --hc 404 http://x.x.x.x/FUZZ.cap To rip .cap files apart and make them "pretty" you can use tpick: tcpick -C -yP -r tcp_dump.pcap Or tcpflow: apt install tcpflow tcpflow -r To do port knocking, you can use the knock utility: sudo git clone https://github.com/grongor/knock /opt/knock knock 1.2.3.4 21 23 25 69 444 7777777
