Lab Scoreboard

Lab Walkthrough Video:


In this challenge we will look at the dictionary attacks on Couchbase server. Please start the lab and answer the following questions:

    Questions

    1. What is the correct password for user ‘Administrator’? Write a curl based script to perform dictionary attack.
    2. What is the correct password for user ‘admin’? Write a python script using couchbase python client to perform dictionary attack. Also, beer-sample bucket is present on the target.
    3. Perform dictionary attack for user “admin” again. But, this time use hydra tool. State the command.

    Instructions: 

    • This lab is dedicated to you! No other users are on this network :) 
    • Once you start the lab, you will have access to a root terminal of a Kali instance
    • Your Kali has an interface with IP address 192.X.Y.Z. Run "ip addr" to know the values of X and Y.
    • The Target machine should be located at the IP address 192.X.Y.3. 
    • Do not attack the gateway located at IP address 192.X.Y.1
    • Dictionary attack using Python library will be slow.


    Verify:
    1. What is the correct password for user admin?
