PCAP

A web app that leaks another user’s traffic capture, and a Linux privilege feature left too permissive. IDOR → PCAP recovery of credentials → SSH user shell → Linux file capabilities (getcap) → root via python3.8 capability.

An exposed backup gives up a reused password, and the box’s own wireless hardware provides the route to root. Anonymous FTP → backup extraction → credential reuse (SSH) → local wireless enumeration → WPS PIN attack (reaver) → root via local escalation.
