sparky, usually you'll upload some kind of asp-admin-tool (like tool25.dat in php, i found a few of them hanging around on some servers). then you're going to upload tools/exploits to get a administrator- or system-shell via a local exploit - most webservers are missing one or another patch for local exploits. there is a ton of local non-ie exploits running well with unpatched windows-machines. then grab a sam and use JtR to get the local admins password. you might go with this account (password won't change, usually) or create a new user and do a "user localgroup admins add" i'd recommend to delete all tools after having an account, then you might leave a little asp-shell that will wait for commands, running then under runas. If you're smart, you'll implement this with a few lines as "addon" to one or more exisiting asp-scripts, so they will not notice you when they're looking in their logs. but, to be honest: why would somebody invest hours in doing stuff like this? whatever hack i have seen in the last years: some replace your index.html (for fame), others (most) will install some kind of bot-software (for money). tom 09sparky () gmail com wrote:
Does anyone know if there is a way to gain root/admin access to a system if you are able to connect to Microsoft FrontPage with No password set on the web server? It is running "Microsoft IIS web server 5.0". The system has been clearly compromised, but I want to see if there were any additional attack vectors that the hackers have performed, to compromise the rest of the system. The obvious recommendation to the client is to re-image the whole machine (after forensic investigation - if necessary), but any suggestions for escalating privileges?
