🤖 Agent Actions

I’ve updated src/network-services-pentesting/8086-pentesting-influxdb.md with new, practical material and recent vuln info, while preserving all existing content and style. Key improvements:

• Added Identify & Version (HTTP) with curl for /ping and /health, plus metrics tip.
• Expanded HTTP enumeration:
  • v1 InfluxQL via /query: SHOW DATABASES/MEASUREMENTS/FIELD KEYS, data dumps, retention policies, user listing, and admin creation example when auth is disabled.
  • v2 token-based API: org/bucket/authorization discovery and Flux query via /api/v2/query with working curl examples and correct headers.
• Added “Recent vulns and privesc of interest” with CVE-2024-30896 operator-token exposure and concise exploitation steps for an authenticated user in the default org.
• Kept the Metasploit module note; added an “Automated Enumeration” header for clarity.
• Added a short “References” section (2 links) at the end as requested.

Sources used for updates:

• InfluxDB HTTP API reference for endpoints like /ping, /query, /authorizations. citeturn6search0
• CVE-2024-30896 operator-token exposure write-up. citeturn4search1

If you want, I can further add brief Shodan dorks and a tiny Flux-to-InfluxQL cheat note, but I kept things focused and concise per your guidelines.
