Welcome back, my aspiring hackers! As I often say, reconnaissance is a crucial part of hacking. You must carefully and thoroughly gather information on the target before attacking, otherwise you are usually wasting your time and risking detection. There are many tools for this purpose many of which I have demonstrated here such as nmap, […]

Welcome back, my fledgling hackers! As we have progressed through this series on Metasploit Basics, we have used numerous techniques to exploit your target system including; 1. SMB Exploits (EternalBlue and MS08_067, for instance); 2. File Format (ms14-0440_sandworm, office_word_hta); 3. Browser Exploits (autopwn, Abobe Flash and numerous others); 4. Social Engineering Toolkit(SET); Custom Payloads with […]

Welcome back my rookie hackers! Every so often, I run across a new hacking tool that really gets me excited. Autosploit is one of those! Autosploit combines the power of two of my favorite tools, Shodan and Metasploit! AutoSploit uses Shodan to find specific targets based upon their banners and then Metasploit to automate the […]

The worst thing that can happen to any hacker is being detected by a security admin, the security technologies (IDS, firewall, etc.), or a forensic investigator. Every time we send a packet to our intended target, that packet contains our IP address in the IP header. When we make a TCP connection, the target system […]

As you know, the Simple Network Management Protocol uses UDP ports 161 and 162 to manage network devices. Network devices use this protocol to communicate to each other and can be used by administrators to manage the devices. As hackers, if we can access the SNMP protocol, we can harvest a vast resource of information […]

In an earlier tutorial, I introduced you to probably the most popular scripting language for hackers, Python. To become a professional hacker, you need to have some scripting skills and Python is a good choice if you want to master just one. In this latest guide, I will expand your background in Python and offer […]

Often, as part of the exploit development process, we will want to test an application for vulnerabilities, especially buffer overflows. One of the ways we can do that is to send random, varying length, invalid data at the application and see what happens. If we can get the application to crash, this often is a […]

Welcome back, my novice hackers! In my series on cracking passwords, I began by showing off some basic password-cracking principles; developed an efficient password-cracking strategy; demonstrated how to use Hashcat, one of the most powerful password-cracking programs; and showed how to create a custom wordlist using Crunch. In this tutorial, I will show you how […]

When we are trying to find vulnerabilities in a website to attack, we need a solid web server vulnerability scanner. Internet-facing web apps can open enormous opportunities for us as they are often riven with vulnerabilities and can often offer an entry point to the internal network and resources. Previously, I had showed you how […]

Welcome back, my novice hackers! One of the most common questions that Hackers-Arise readers ask is: “How can I evade detection by antivirus software on the target?” I have already talked about how AV software works, but to obtain a deeper understanding, what better way is there than opening up and dissecting some AV software? […]
