Case # 1:

I am working as a penetration tester in an organization. My CISO tasked me to identify and

remediate the vulnerabilities in the network environment which is designed with a software-designed
network (SDN). Now how can I use the namp tool to identify exportable vulnerabilities related to
ssh?
To use the Nmap tool to identify exportable vulnerabilities related to SSH, you can follow these
steps:

1. Install and configure Nmap on your system. You can download the latest version of Nmap from the
official website, and then follow the installation instructions.
2. Scan the target network using Nmap. You can use the following command to scan for all the hosts
on the network:
nmap -sP <network IP range>
For example, if your network IP range is 192.168.1.0/24, the command would be:
nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24
3. Once you have identified the hosts on the network, you can scan for open SSH ports using the
following command:
nmap -p 22 <target IP>
For example, if the target IP address is 192.168.1.100, the command would be:
nmap -p 22 192.168.1.100
4. Once you have identified the open SSH ports, you can use the following command to identify any
exportable vulnerabilities related to SSH:
nmap -sV --script ssh2-enum-algos <target IP>
This command will identify any SSH version 2 algorithms that are supported by the target host,
which can be exported by an attacker to perform attacks.
For example, if the target IP address is 192.168.1.100, the command would be:
nmap -sV --script ssh2-enum-algos 192.168.1.100
5. Based on the output of the scan, you can then take steps to remediate any vulnerabilities that are
identified. This may involve upgrading SSH to a more secure version, disabling weak algorithms, or
implementing other security measures to protect against attacks.

Note: It is important to ensure that you have proper authorization and permissions before
conducting any vulnerability scans or penetration testing activities on a network.
 Case # 2:

I am working as a penetration tester in an organization. My CISO tasked me to identify and

remediate the vulnerabilities in the network environment which is designed with a software-designed
network (SDN). I have identified a vulnerability related to TLS v1.2. How can I confirm this
vulnerability using the Metasploit framework?
Before using Metasploit to confirm the vulnerability, you should ensure that you have the necessary
permissions and approvals from the organization's management and that you are working within a
controlled environment to avoid causing any unintended damage.

Assuming you have obtained the necessary permissions, you can use Metasploit to confirm the
vulnerability related to TLS v1.2 by following these steps:

1. Start by opening the Metasploit console and searching for modules related to TLS v1.2. You can do
this by running the following command:
sqlCopy code

search tls_v1_2

2. Once you have identified the relevant module, load it by running the following command:
perlCopy code

use <module_name>

3. Configure the module by setting the target IP address, port, and other relevant parameters. You can
do this by running the show options command to view the available options, and then setting the
required options using the set command.
4. Once you have configured the module, run the exploit by running the exploit command. This will
attempt to exploit the vulnerability and provide you with the results.
5. Analyze the results to determine if the vulnerability has been successfully exploited. The results may
include information such as system details, data, and potential attack vectors.
6. If the vulnerability is confirmed, work with the organization's IT team to remediate the issue by
upgrading to a more secure version of TLS, implementing additional security controls, or other
appropriate actions.

Remember that using Metasploit to confirm vulnerabilities should be done with the utmost care and
in accordance with ethical hacking principles. Always ensure that you have permission and approval
before running any exploit, and work closely with the organization's IT team to remediate any
vulnerabilities that are discovered.
 Case # 3:

I am working as a penetration tester in an organization. My CISO tasked me to identify and

remediate the vulnerabilities in web applications. I have found stored cross-site scripting
vulnerability. Now help me how can I confirm this vulnerability using Buru Suite with sample request
and response headers?
Sure, I can help you confirm the stored cross-site scripting vulnerability using Burp Suite. Here are
the steps you can follow:

1. Set up Burp Suite: If you haven't already done so, you'll need to set up Burp Suite as a proxy. To do
this, open Burp Suite and go to the "Proxy" tab. Click the "Intercept is On" button to turn on the
proxy intercept.
2. Navigate to the vulnerable web application: Navigate to the page where you have found the stored
cross-site scripting vulnerability.
3. Capture the request: In Burp Suite, go to the "Proxy" tab and select the "Intercept" sub-tab. Click the
"Intercept is On" button to enable intercepting. Then, refresh the vulnerable page in your browser.
Burp Suite should intercept the request.
4. Modify the payload: In the "Intercept" tab, you can modify the payload to test if the vulnerability is
exploitable. To do this, select the request, right-click and choose "Send to Intruder." In the Intruder
tab, go to the "Positions" tab and select the text field where the vulnerability is located. Then, go to
the "Payloads" tab and choose the "Payload Type" as "Simple list." In the "Payload Options" section,
add a payload that will trigger the XSS, such as <script>alert("XSS");</script>. You can also add
additional payloads to test the full extent of the vulnerability.
5. Run the Intruder attack: Once you have set up the payloads, go to the "Intruder" tab and click the
"Start Attack" button. Burp Suite will send the modified requests, and the responses will appear in
the "Intruder" tab.
6. Analyze the response: If the attack was successful, you should see the XSS payload executed in the
response. The response should also contain the sample request and response headers you
requested.
7. Remediate the vulnerability: Once you have confirmed the vulnerability, you should work with your
development team to remediate it. This may involve encoding user input, validating input before
processing, or using a content security policy to prevent malicious scripts from executing.

I hope this helps you confirm the stored cross-site scripting vulnerability using Burp Suite. Let me
know if you have any further questions!
