Category: Boot2Root Walk-Throughs

I downloaded from vulnhub and put Kioptrix 2014 on my lab network for my next machine challenge. This box had some software I hadn’t seen before, exposed social security numbers and lacked some of the commands I usually attacked.

I wasn’t able to get an interactive shell without using the metasploit framework, which is a little disappointing….but overall it was a fun box to hack on.

Today I wanted to keep working through the Kioptrix Level 1.2. I pulled the machine from vulnhub and set it up on my ESXi lab network.

Today’s boot2root machine is an old one: Kioptrix Level 1 from all the way back in 2010. I’ve got the machine downloaded and added to my lab network on my ESXi server.
