walkthrough


IP of the target 10.10.10.184

we started with nmap to find open ports and services running in the system by using the command


nmap -sC -sV -o nmap.txt 10.10.10.184

as we can see that so many ports are open , so first of all we decided to login anonymously into FTP using credentials anonymous anonymous

now here we found two Users "Nadine" and "Nathan" , and after enumerating more we found two important text files , we downloaded them in our local system , now lets try to read them.

Information extracted :-

[+] user names : Nathan and Nadine

[+] passwords.txt file stored in Desktop directory

[+] NVMS web application is present


now our next step is to enumerate port 80 .
