Wintermute Part 2 Neuromancer (Vulnhub Writeup)
This VulnHub writeup is based on Neuromancer - part two of the excellent ‘Wintermute 1’ challenge, created by creosote
I’ll spare you all the detail, but as a quick recap, after having rooted Straylight we find that it is dual-homed - i.e. it is part of a second sub-net. We pick up the action from the ‘note.txt’ file found after having gained root privs on that box.
TLDR/Spoiler Alert: The privesc route for this machine is not the obvious one chosen by other people who have taken the time to put together so many great writeups.
