###### Bypass WAFs by Shortening IP Address (by 🌎 [0xInfection](twitter.com/0xInfection))

IP addresses can be shortened by dropping the zeroes:

```
http://1.0.0.1 → http://1.1
http://127.0.0.1 → http://127.1
http://192.168.0.1 → http://192.168.1

http://0xC0A80001 or http://3232235521 → 192.168.0.1
http://192.168.257 → 192.168.1.1
http://192.168.516 → 192.168.2.4
```

> This bypasses WAF filters for SSRF, open-redirect, etc where any IP as input gets blacklisted.

```

###### Generate private key with passphrase

```bash
# _ciph: aes128, aes256
# _len: 2048, 4096
( _ciph="aes128" ; _fd="private.key" ; _len="2048" ; \
openssl genrsa -${_ciph} -out ${_fd} ${_len} )
```

###### Remove passphrase from private key

```bash
( _fd="private.key" ; _fd_unp="private_unp.key" ; \
openssl rsa -in ${_fd} -out ${_fd_unp} )
```

###### Encrypt existing private key with a passphrase

```bash
( _fd="private.key" ; _fd_csr="request.csr" ; _len="2048" ; \
openssl req -out ${_fd_csr} -new -newkey rsa:${_len} -nodes -keyout ${_fd} )
```

###### Generate CSR

```bash
( _fd="private.key" ; _fd_csr="request.csr" ; \
openssl req -out ${_fd_csr} -new -key ${_fd} )
```

###### Generate CSR (metadata from existing certificate)

> Where `private.key` is the existing private key. As you can see you do not generate this CSR from your certificate (public key). Also you do not generate the "same" CSR, just a new one to request a new certificate.

```bash
( _fd="private.key" ; _fd_csr="request.csr" ; _fd_crt="cert.crt" ; \
openssl x509 -x509toreq -in ${_fd_crt} -out ${_fd_csr} -signkey ${_fd} )
```

###### Generate CSR with -config param

```bash
( _fd="private.key" ; _fd_csr="request.csr" ; \
openssl req -new -sha256 -key ${_fd} -out ${_fd_csr} \
-config <(
cat << __EOF__
[req]
default_bits = 2048
default_md = sha256
prompt = no
distinguished_name = dn
req_extensions = req_ext

[ dn ]
C = ""
ST = ""
L = ""
O = ""
OU = ""
CN = ""

[ req_ext ]
subjectAltName = @alt_names

[ alt_names ]
DNS.1 =
DNS.2 =
DNS.3 =
__EOF__
))
```

Other values in `[ dn ]`:

```
countryName = "DE" # C=
stateOrProvinceName = "Hessen" # ST=
localityName = "Keller" # L=
postalCode = "424242" # L/postalcode=
postalAddress = "Keller" # L/postaladdress=
streetAddress = "Crater 1621" # L/street=
organizationName = "apfelboymschule" # O=
organizationalUnitName = "IT Department" # OU=
commonName = "example.com" # CN=
emailAddress = "[email protected]" # CN/emailAddress=
```

Example of `oids` (you'll probably also have to make OpenSSL know about the new fields required for EV by adding the following under `[new_oids]`):

```
[req]
...
oid_section = new_oids

[ new_oids ]
postalCode = 2.5.4.17
streetAddress = 2.5.4.9
```

Full example:

```bash
( _fd="private.key" ; _fd_csr="request.csr" ; \
openssl req -new -sha256 -key ${_fd} -out ${_fd_csr} \
-config <(
cat << __EOF__
[req]
default_bits = 2048
default_md = sha256
prompt = no
distinguished_name = dn
req_extensions = req_ext
oid_section = new_oids

[ new_oids ]
serialNumber = 2.5.4.5
streetAddress = 2.5.4.9
postalCode = 2.5.4.17
businessCategory = 2.5.4.15

[ dn ]
serialNumber=00001111
businessCategory=Private Organization
jurisdictionC=DE
C=DE
ST=Hessen
L=Keller
postalCode=424242
streetAddress=Crater 1621
O=AV Company
OU=IT
CN=example.com

[ req_ext ]
subjectAltName = @alt_names

[ alt_names ]
DNS.1 = example.com
__EOF__

host1> psql -U db_user -d db_dev -p 9051 -h localhost
```

# Forwarding our local 9051 port to db.d.x:5432 from host2 through node.d.y
host1> ssh -nNT -R 9051:db.d.x:5432 node.d.y

##### Tool: 🌎 [linux-dev](www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/devref1.html)

###### Testing remote connection to port

```bash
timeout 1 bash -c "//" >/dev/null 2>&1 ; echo $?
```

* `` - set remote host
* `` - set destination port

###### Read and write to TCP or UDP sockets with common bash tools

```bash
exec 5<>/dev/tcp//; cat <&5 & cat >&5; exec 5>&-
```

___

##### Tool: [tcpdump](http://www.tcpdump.org/)

###### Filter incoming (on interface) traffic (specific )

```bash
tcpdump -ne -i eth0 -Q in host 192.168.252.1 and port 443
```

* `-n` - don't convert addresses (`-nn` will not resolve hostnames or ports)
* `-e` - print the link-level headers
* `-i [iface|any]` - set interface
* `-Q|-D [in|out|inout]` - choose send/receive direction (`-D` - for old tcpdump versions)
* `host [ip|hostname]` - set host, also `[host not]`
* `[and|or]` - set logic
* `port [1-65535]` - set port number, also `[port not]`

###### Filter incoming (on interface) traffic (specific ) and write to a file

```bash
tcpdump -ne -i eth0 -Q in host 192.168.252.1 and port 443 -c 5 -w tcpdump.pcap
```

* `-c [num]` - capture only num number of packets
* `-w [filename]` - write packets to file, `-r [filename]` - reading from file

###### Capture all ICMP packets

```bash
tcpdump -nei eth0 icmp
```

###### Check protocol used (TCP or UDP) for service

```bash
tcpdump -nei eth0 tcp port 22 -vv -X | egrep "TCP|UDP"
```

###### Display ASCII text (to parse the output using grep or other)

```bash
tcpdump -i eth0 -A -s0 port 443
```

###### Grab everything between two keywords

```bash
tcpdump -i eth0 port 80 -X | sed -n -e '/username/,/=ldap/ p'
```

###### Grab user and pass ever plain http

```bash
tcpdump -i eth0 port http -l -A | egrep -i \
'pass=|pwd=|log=|login=|user=|username=|pw=|passw=|passwd=|password=|pass:|user:|username:|password:|login:|pass |user ' \
--color=auto --line-buffered -B20
```

###### Extract HTTP User Agent from HTTP request header

```bash
tcpdump -ei eth0 -nn -A -s1500 -l | grep "User-Agent:"

tcpdump -ei eth0 -s 0 -A -vv \
'tcp[((tcp[12:1] & 0xf0) >> 2):4] = 0x47455420' or 'tcp[((tcp[12:1] & 0xf0) >> 2):4] = 0x504f5354'
```

or simply:

```bash
tcpdump -ei eth0 -s 0 -v -n -l | egrep -i "POST /|GET /|Host:"
```

###### Rotate capture files

```bash
tcpdump -ei eth0 -w /tmp/capture-%H.pcap -G 3600 -C 200
```

* `-G ` - pcap will be created every `` seconds
* `-C ` - close the current pcap and open a new one if is larger than ``

###### Top hosts by packets

```bash
tcpdump -ei enp0s25 -nnn -t -c 200 | cut -f 1,2,3,4 -d '.' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -n 20
```

###### Excludes any RFC 1918 private address

```bash
tcpdump -nei eth0 'not (src net (10 or 172.16/12 or 192.168/16) and dst net (10 or 172.16/12 or 192.168/16))'

```

* `-q` - quiet mode (only payloads)
* `-t` - added timestamps
* `-O [filename]` - save output to file, `-I [filename]` - reading from file

```bash
ngrep -d eth0 -qt 'HTTP' 'tcp'
```
