Linux Privilege Escalation - Weak Permissions

LinEnum Tool

• LinEnum - LinEnum is a simple bash script that automates common Linux local enumeration checks in addition to identifying privilege escalation vulnerabilities. </aside>

Searching for Files with Read-Write Permissions for Low Privilege Users

To search for files with read-write permissions accessible by low privilege users, use the following command:

find / -not -type d -perm -o+w

This command searches the filesystem for files that have read or write permissions set for low privilege users, which can potentially be used for privilege escalation.

Linux Privilege Escalation - SUDO Privileges

Checking Sudo Privileges

To check your sudo privileges, use the following command:

sudo -l

This command lists the commands that you're allowed to run with sudo.

Best Reference for Exploiting Misconfigured Sudo

For exploiting misconfigured sudo, refer to GTFOBins.

This website provides a collection of Unix-like system command-line exploits that can be used for privilege escalation and post-exploitation scenarios.
