PT0-002 Exam - Question 227


After running the enum4linux.pl command, a penetration tester received the following output:

Which of the following commands should the penetration tester run NEXT?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

Based on the provided output from enum4linux.pl, the penetration tester has identified the 'web' share as accessible with no password required. To further interact with this share and explore its contents, the penetration tester should use the 'smbclient' command. 'smbclient' allows the user to navigate the share as if it were a remote filesystem, making it a versatile tool for this purpose. Using the syntax 'smbclient //192.168.100.56/web -U '' -N', the command specifies an empty username and no password, which matches the conditions observed in the output. This makes 'smbclient' the appropriate next command to run.

smbget command starts with a front slash and not a back slash smbget smb://ip address/sharename D - smbclient command starts with a backslash smbclient -L \\ip address\sharename

Right on the target !!!! You're 100% right.

"smbclient -L \\ip address\" is used to list the shares, if you want to connect to it you shoud use "smbclient //ip_address/share"

You are right, but one more thing, the web -U for username and -N (means no password) its says at the top it can only do username/password. So no password would not work.

smbclient //192.168.100.56/web -U '' -N The smbclient //192.168.100.56/web -U '' -N command is used to access an SMB network share, such as a webserver. The -U option specifies the username which will be used to authenticate with the server, and in this example, it is set to a blank string. The -N option bypasses any authentication prompts so that the command will execute without prompting for authentication credentials. This command can be used by a penetration tester to collect data from a target system, such as webpages, documents, or scripts. smbget //192.168.100.56/web -U The smbget //192.168.100.56/web -U option specifies the username which will be used to authenticate with the server. This command can be used by a penetration tester to collect data from a target system, such as webpages, documents, or scripts. To execute this command, you must provide a valid username in place of the -U option. If this is not done, the command will not execute and an error will be returned.

I think C is correct

D. The attacker already know that he can login with null credentials and know the "web" share. So he should attempt no connect using the command "smbclient //192.168.100.56/web -U '' -N"

This command would allow the penetration tester to retrieve files from the 'web' share, which was successfully mapped and listed during the previous step. smbget is a utility that can be used to download files from SMB/CIFS servers, and it can be used to retrieve files from a remote share. Option A attempts to print to the 'print$' share, which was denied. Option B would simply list the available shares on the target host, which the penetration tester has already done. Option D would allow the penetration tester to interact with the 'web' share as if it were a remote filesystem, but it is not necessary to do so at this point, as the goal is simply to gather more information about the share.

There are two shares available: "print$" and "web". The "print$" share seems to require authentication, while the "web" share is accessible without credentials. Therefore, the penetration tester should run the command that accesses the "web" share without authentication.

The "-U ''" option specifies an empty username and password to access the share without authentication.

C is the answer right ?

[Removed]Option: D

D is the answer A vulnerability scan is a type of assessment that helps to identify vulnerabilities in a network or system. Itscans systems for potential vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and outdated software. Based on the output from a vulnerability scan, a penetration tester can identify vulnerabilities that may be exploited to gain access to a system. In this scenario, the output from the penetration testing tool shows that 100 hosts contained findings due to improper patch management. This indicates that the vulnerability scan detected vulnerabilities that could have been prevented through proper patch management. Therefore, the most likely test performed by the penetration tester is a vulnerability scan.

The correct answer is option D, if you try option C without the "-r" parameter you will received the following error "NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND opening remote file"

I dont know C or D? is correct answer

Myfeedins479Option: D

I'm going with D because the server allows login with blank username and "password". smbclient will open an interactive SMB client session. smbget will allow files to be downloaded, but not as useful. net rpc share will list shares on the server.

CCSXoraboveOption: D

I think is D, because with smbget you need to specify the file to download and with smbclient you will be able to connect and list the files.
