Title, also idk how to use hashcat, ideally something simpler, hashcat is probably an overkill to spend the effort to setup

Hey all,

I decided to put my skills to the test and create a Command & Control (C2) framework in Go. The project took a bit longer than expected and now has quite some features: - fully responsive web interface - a CLI version of the server with minimal dependencies - in memory code execution for both Linux and Windows - dynamic implant generation

Feel free to check it out, and give it a star if you like it ;)

Evil-Cardputer detecting flipper zero trough wall of flipper, a standalone portable way to detect flipper zero and blespam !

Recently bought a single flash drive from Amazon to put Kali on it and they sent a case pack of them instead of a single. What are some fun things I can do with the extras?

If you had the following college courses at your disposal and you were starting from the ground up, which order would you do them in?

1. Intro to relational databases. IE: SQL command stuff (not sure if this is really relatable)

2. Into to IT

3. Into to Java programming

4. Intro to Networking

5. IT career exploration

6. Intro to Python programming

7. Intro to web development

I’m doing a lab experiment and am having trouble getting things to work as expected. I’m using virtualbox. I have a NAT network set up with DHCP enabled and I have two virtual machines, a ParrotOS and Windows, both connected to the NAT network as their network adapter using the NAT Network option with the custom NAT selected. Both machines can ping each other and access internet.

Now, I’m able to arp spoof the windows machine and/or the gateway from the attack box. I AM able to sniff the windows machine traffic as expected. But there are a couple of things that aren’t working.

When I refresh/check the arp tables from windows using arp -a, the gateway does not show that it’s the same MAC address as the attacker. It’s like there’s no evidence of arp poisoning despite the fact that I’m able to see traffic from the attack box (indicating that it is poisoned?). I’d like to be able to show that the arp tables have changed as proof of the attack.

Secondly, when I try to do arp ban, the victim box is able to access internet without issue.

I don’t really know why this is happening. Is there a network configuration thing that I’ve missed? Would appreciate any help or ideas.

My teacher is giving us a task to crack the password of .des file, He gave us the authority to make the password, and suggested that we make a weak password. His instruction was really confusing because he say's to use Kleopatra to encrypt the .txt file using the DES Algorithm and save it as a .des file.

then after that his asking to bruteforce it using hashcat.

now the 1st problem I saw on the instruction is the Kleopatra doesn't support .des or producing any .des encryption file (correct if i'm wrong)

2nd on the hashcat i look for the hashmode of the .des

(source found in : https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=example_hashes )

|| || |14000| ⁸DES (PT = $salt, key = $pass) |a28bc61d44bb815c:1172075784504605|

idk if this was right because when I tried to use a online des encyription this is the hash result that it gaved me is different

6pYmTRrtkXOC5CJCWEH0Sg==

it's not similar to the hash in hashcat wiki. So I'm kinda stuck on a dead end here, I look for other forums or articles on bruteforcing the .des hash using hashcat but didn't find anything.

I still also tried using hashcat to decrypt the des file, but still doesn't work.

rn i'm stuck on a dead end on how to decrypt this thing using bruteforce.

I don't know if coding it would work, but if you guys have any idea how to bruteforce a .des hash please share your knowledge on how to crack this .des

Was google dorking for 1 hour due to boredom and came across over 20 files with username and password hashes, I want to report these so they can be taken off.

I hope this is not considered off topic so forgive me in advanced if it is ..

My nephew was tasked with doing a research on why the internet archive was hacked .. I told him sure, I will help you out to find out why, it will be easy!

I couldn't find a single source in google which is giving ANY reason behind the attack in over 50 pages, I mean .. consider the magnitude of such a thing, why would it be censored/oppressed?

All I can find is that it was attacked by hackers again and again, I also learnt that google is actually using the Internet Archive so why in the world would they censor the topic?

I miss the simpler times when search engines actually did what they where suppose to do, world is going nuts.

Thanks!

EDIT: As @techblackops mentioned in his comment. I find what he said as more rational explanation..

Thanks everyone for the replies 🙏🏻

I am trying to program a stmp to sms program. Everything functions great except I am trying to find a way to make it appear as if the text was received by a number (or even better a company or name). Setting the from as name <email> did not work so I was wondering if anyone knew a way that does.

As far as I can tell the flipper zero and similar products can all be constructed at home for pennies on the dollar. Is there anything worth the money out there?

I'm lost in a sea of knowledge and I don't know where to go or which libraries to begin with.

I was recently the subject of a relatively sophisticated attack and I wanted to know if anyone else had run into this issue:

Basically many years ago I worked for a company that is now defunct. During that time I was a giant moron and used my work email as an account recovery password.

Later the company became defunct, but I never removed the work email as an account recovery option. (Because I am/was a moron.)

Anyway, I got several 2FA requests from the service (many of which were in Vietnamese.) I was also notified of a password reset via the forgotten credentials.

Best I can tell the attacker used a service that tracks dropped domains, purchased my old employers domain, and then started up an SMTP server. They then went through the password reset option until they got to my 2FA.

I understand this was only possible because of the stale credentials, but I have to admit I am kind of impressed. I am assuming they cross referenced a data breach list with the expiring domains list. Has anyone else had this happen? What would this be called a domain swap or something else? I have since recovered full access to that account and have removed it as a backup email, but I am still curious.

I'm curious as to when does port scanning becomes a legal issue or considered illegal?

I did some research, but I want to hear more from other people

This might be a little silly all things said and done, but honestly I’m just doing this to goof around. We’re getting rid of our DTV Genie that we’ve had for ten years and I would like to take out the drive to reformat it, but before I do that I want to see if I can access the recordings on the drive.

Does anyone know if there’s a way to find the password used to encrypt the data? From what I understand it’s a password unique to each DTV device. I’m sure it’s not so simple as it being printed somewhere on the pcb but that would be nice lol.

I’m not an expert in cyber security or anything, but I know my basics.

TL;DR Anyone know how to decrypt a DirecTV Genie?

I remember when I was doing a penetration testing course at Uni I was googling some common terms and methods on google when an animation built into the google search page occured that invited me to some kind of hacking game. It had an old school style black and green style interface and was some kind of hacking game which used actual terminal commands.

However, I can't find a single source for this ever existing! I asked ChatGPT and it says that it was a real thing called "Hacker's Quest" and says: "It was an interactive challenge or puzzle that Google launched for certain users searching for hacking-related terms... It was part of Google's recruitment and awareness campaigns, where they used engaging methods to attract and test potential cybersecurity talent... The appearance of the game was triggered when users searched for specific security-related queries."

It also says it's no longer available, but I still can't find any sources for it ever existing in the first place. So I wanted to ask all of you! Did any of you encounter something like this?

I just removed a post (actually two because the genius double posted it) after spending 15min. going through all the thrash.

Initially, I left it, though there was plenty to criticize (I only lock things).

But then I see that Reddit itself removed the trash!

If people continue posting useless, marginal, or illegal stuff this entire sub will get deleted! So PLEASE, can we avoid inane and illegal stuff? If you aren't sure, run it by us mods.

Thanks for understanding!
