| 2019-08-28 2019 | WRITE UP – Private bug bounty $$,$$$ USD: “RCE as root on Marathon-Mesos instance” – @omespino intermediate 2 min read | Writeup detailing a private bug bounty win of $30,000 USD for a Remote Code Execution (RCE) as root vulnerability found on a Marathon-Mesos instance. The exploit involved using Shodan to locate unauthenticated Marathon UIs, then crafting a `curl` command to create a Marathon application that executed `/usr/bin/wget --post-data='id'` to a listener, demonstrating root-level command execution via this container orchestration platform. Tools used included netcat, curl, and a web browser. |
| 2019-04-20 2019 | PDFReacter SSRF to ROOT Level Local File Read which led to RCE intermediate SSRF | PDFReacter is a parser that converts HTML content to PDF. |
| 2018-11-09 2018 | elttam - Ruby 2.x Universal RCE Deserialization Gadget Chain advanced 11 min read | Library for Ruby 2.x universal RCE deserialization gadget chains, detailing exploitation of arbitrary deserialization and releasing a public gadget chain for command execution. It discusses serialization, deserialization pitfalls, and code reuse attacks via gadget chains, noting limitations of previous payloads requiring specific gems and libraries. This resource explores hunting for gadgets within the standard library, focusing on techniques that implicitly load additional libraries or allow partial control over arguments to `require`. |
| 2018-07-06 2018 | Latex to RCE, Private Bug Bounty Program intermediate | The content discusses the author's participation in a private bug bounty program focused on a CMS journal site, approximately a year ago. The author aims to share their learnings from this experience, particularly related to exploiting a vulnerability in Latex to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE). The bug bounty program provided an opportunity for the author to enhance their skills in identifying and exploiting security flaws. |
| 2018-06-07 2018 | How I Chained 4 vulnerabilities on GitHub Enterprise, From SSRF Execution Chain to RCE! intermediate SSRF | The content appears to be a title mentioning chaining four vulnerabilities on GitHub Enterprise, from SSRF execution to RCE. The author is identified as 🍊. |
| 2018-04-29 2018 | #BugBounty — How I was able to bypass firewall to get RCE and then went from server shell to get… intermediate | The content is about a bug bounty experience where the author bypassed a firewall to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) and gained access to a server shell. The author likely shares details of the process and techniques used in this security testing scenario. |
| 2017-11-19 2017 | Leading the Blind to Light! - A Chain to RCE advanced 5 min read | Writeup detailing a Remote Code Execution chain on Oracle E-Business Suite. The exploit begins with an authentication bypass, leading to blind XXE and information disclosure. This disclosure helps identify an internal endpoint, which through further fuzzing, reveals an SQL injection vulnerability. By re-enabling `xp_cmdshell` via SQL injection, the attacker achieves command execution with administrator privileges. → blog.zsec.uk |
