This is my Hack the box's Blue machine write-up.

Initial enumeration

Nmap scan on the target:

nmap -sV -sC -oN blue.nmap $BLUE

Flags:

  • -sV: Version detection
  • -sC: Script scan using the default set of scripts
  • -oN: Output in normal nmap format

Vunerability analysis and exploitation

Let's try a vuln analysis using nmap:
