List members;
Currently I'm performing an external pen test on two web applications. I was wondering if I could get a little encouragement and possibly some assistance.
The apps are PlanWeb and PlanHR by Pyramid Digital Solutions. The box the apps reside on is WinNT 4.0 running IIS 4 sitting behind a firewall. The only open ports are 80 and 443. Going to port 80 gives a big fat "403.4 Forbidden: SSL required" page. I've hammered the site with Nikto on both port 80 and 443. The only thing I get are xss and the new xss trace hits from the libwhisker perl module. (Yeah, I'm using the latest LW.pm.)
The cookie comes back as Siteserver=biglonghashedtypedealhere. I got a couple thousand of them and looked for similarities, or patterns better yet, but found none. (Manual process, if I had found an automated tool for looking at similarities perhaps my luck would have been better.)
So far I haven't had much luck at all. Everything done in the app goes to an exe file. The url looks like this https://pen-test.server.com/directory/file.exe?. I've tried appending all sorts of goodness to the end of the url. No luck. I did manage to get into the application with a default username and password combo. I simply replaced the file.exe with file.ini and IIS let me download said ini file which contained a default user id and password. I'm going through the app trying to find any way to upload to the server. There are a host of forms in the application but none look will allow me to write a file.
Part of the app is a backend sql box. I'm going to try some sql injection through the applications forms, but I'm confident it's going to fail. I hammered the developers with that the last test.
Anyway, I was just curious if there was something new that I've been missing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
