1 min readNov 8, 2019
Last week we had our seventh session of the Pentesting Fundamentals Study Group.
We covered Chapter 7 Exploiting Network Vulnerabilities of the CompTIA PenTest+ Study Guide and learned about the following topics:
- Conducting network exploits such as VLAN hopping attacks, DNS cache poisoning, man-in-the-middle attacks, ARP spoofing, DoS attacks and stress testing
- Exploiting the NetBIOS name resolution and SMB Windows services
- Exploiting common services such as SNMP, SMTP, FTP and Samba
- Wireless exploits such as evil twin attacks, bluetooth attacks and RFID cloning
We also watched IppSec’s videos on how to get system/root level access on the CronOS and Blue Hack The Box (HTB) machines.
This week, we will be holding a cyber security challenge!
