Browsing to /admin give us access to a login form :
Login
Looking at the source code give us 3 javascript files : /main.js, /login.js and /cookie.js. The second one is quite interesting while he says a cookie “SessionToken” is create when admin credential is correct :
1
2
3
4
else {
Cookies.set("SessionToken",statusOrCookie)
window.location = "/admin"
}
So let’s set up this cookies : “SessionToken” with path “/admin/” and refresh the page :
Admin area
We’re successfully log to the admin area ! And more, we get a private SSH key for James :

I tried to connect with this private key but it seems to be protect by a passphrase :

root@ip-10-10-56-141:~/Desktop/overpass# chmod 600 id.rsa
root@ip-10-10-56-141:~/Desktop/overpass# ssh james@10.10.44.121 -i id.rsa
Enter passphrase for key 'id.rsa':
We can use John the Ripper to pass over this.
