Question 236

A consultant just performed a SYN scan of all the open ports on a remote host and now needs to remotely identify the type of services that are running on the host. Which of the following is an active reconnaissance tool that would be BEST to use to accomplish this task?

Correct Answer: A

Question 237

A penetration tester has obtained a low-privilege shell on a Windows server with a default configuration and now wants to explore the ability to exploit misconfigured service permissions. Which of the following commands would help the tester START this process?

Correct Answer: A
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/certutilexe-could-allow-attackers-to-download-malware- while-bypassing-av/
--- https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/accesschk
The
certutil command is a Windows utility that can be used to manipulate certificates and certificate authorities.
However, it can also be abused by attackers to download files from remote servers using the -urlcache option.
In this case, the command downloads accesschk64.exe from http://192.168.2.124/windows-binaries/ and saves it locally. Accesschk64.exe is a tool that can be used to check service permissions and identify potential privilege escalation vectors. The other commands are not relevant for this purpose. Powershell is a scripting language that can be used to perform various tasks, but in this case it uploads a file instead of downloading one. Schtasks is a command that can be used to create or query scheduled tasks, but it does not help with service permissions. Wget is a Linux command that can be used to download files from the web, but it does not work on Windows by default.

Question 238

During the scoping phase of an assessment, a client requested that any remote code exploits discovered during testing would be reported immediately so the vulnerability could be fixed as soon as possible. The penetration tester did not agree with this request, and after testing began, the tester discovered a vulnerability and gained internal access to the system. Additionally, this scenario led to a loss of confidential credit card data and a hole in the system. At the end of the test, the penetration tester willfully failed to report this information and left the vulnerability in place. A few months later, the client was breached and credit card data was stolen. After being notified about the breach, which of the following steps should the company take NEXT?

Correct Answer: B
Explanation
The penetration tester violated the client's request and the code of ethics by not reporting the vulnerability immediately and leaving it in place. This could have contributed to the breach and the data loss. The company should investigate the penetration tester's actions and motives, and hold them accountable for any negligence or malpractice.

Question 239

A penetration tester captures SMB network traffic and discovers that users are mistyping the name of a fileshare server. This causes the workstations to send out requests attempting to resolve the fileshare server's name. Which of the following is the best way for a penetration tester to exploit this situation?

Correct Answer: D
In the scenario where users are mistyping the name of a fileshare server, leading to broadcast requests, the most effective exploitation strategy would be for the penetration tester to respond to these requests with their own IP address (D) and set up a service to capture authentication credentials. This technique is known as a
"Man-in-the-Middle" (MitM) attack, where the attacker intercepts communication between two parties. In this case, the tester can exploit the misdirected requests to potentially capture sensitive information such as usernames and passwords.

Question 240

A penetration tester enters a command into the shell and receives the following output:
C:\Users\UserX\Desktop>vmic service get name, pathname, displayname, startmode | findstr /i auto | findstr /i
/v |C:\\Windows\\" I findstr /i /v""
VulnerableService Some Vulnerable Service C:\Program Files\A Subfolder\B Subfolder\SomeExecutable.exe Automatic Which of the following types of vulnerabilities does this system contain?

Correct Answer: A
The provided output reveals a common vulnerability in Windows services known as an unquoted service path.
When the service executable path is not enclosed in quotes and contains spaces, Windows may incorrectly interpret the spaces, potentially leading to the execution of unintended programs.
Details:
* Command Explanation: The command vmic service get name, pathname, displayname, startmode | findstr /i auto | findstr /i /v "C:\\Windows\\" | findstr /i /v "" filters services that are set to start automatically and are not located in the Windows directory.
* Output Interpretation: The output shows a service with a path C:\Program Files\A Subfolder\B Subfolder\SomeExecutable.exe which is not quoted. If a malicious user places an executable in C:\Program.exe, C:\Program Files\A.exe, or similar, it might get executed instead.
References: Common Windows privilege escalation vulnerabilities include unquoted service paths. This vulnerability is well-documented in security resources and penetration testing guides.
