# Exploit Workflow #### Scan for vulnerabilities We're searching for vulnerabilities in the host, application, or information leakage. * [ ] NMAP scanning * [ ] vhost enumeration * [ ] Gobuster * [ ] Ping scanning * [ ] Google Dorking #### Determine Versions After gathering information about the host and applications, we need to determine what versions they have. * [ ] Banner grabbing * [ ] netcat / telnet * [ ] Shodan and Censys * [ ] Inspect headers * [ ] Throw intentional errors #### Find Exploits Find exploits for identified versions and software on host * [ ] searchsploit * [ ] exploit-db * [ ] Google * [ ] Shodan #### Craft Payload Create malicious payload through identified exploit. Allows further exploitation through reverse shells or other similar exploitation routes. * [ ] msfvenom * [ ] searchsploit #### Execute Payload Execute the payload we made, there can be some very interesting and creative ways to achieve this! * [ ] Invoke-Command * [ ] runas * [ ] sudo #### Establish Persistence Ensure that our exploits will stay persistent on the host * [ ] service takeovers * [ ] cron jobs * [ ] startup scripts #### Escalate Privileges Move from a foothold to root! * [ ] get-process * [ ] PowerUp.ps1 * [ ] LinEnum.sh * [ ] LinPEAS * [ ] WinPEAS * [ ] suid/guid * [ ] sudo -l #### Exfiltrate Data Steal the data on the host! * [ ] Invoke-WebRequest * [ ] iwr * [ ] curl * [ ] Imagination!! --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://notes.m4lwhere.org/offensive/offensive-notes.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
