HTB Retired Box Walkthrough: Mirai

4 min readSep 10, 2019

Mirai is a retired Linux machine that is rated as Easy on Hack the Box.

Hostname: Mirai
IP: 10.10.10.48
Operating System: Linux

Port Scan Results*

A simple nmap port scan nmap -vvvvv 10.10.10.48 yields the following ports:

22/tcp: ssh
53/tcp: domain
80/tcp: http

Further Enumeration*

Let’s go a little deeper with version numbers. We know it’s a Windows system and the name is a hint of sorts it seems. I use nmap -vvvvv -A -sVT 10.10.10.4.

22/tcp: OpenSSH 6.7p1 Debian 5+deb8u3 (protocol 2.0)
53/tcp: dnsmaq 2.76
80/tcp: lighttp 1.4.35

Methodology

Updated port scan and enumeration information:
22/tcp: OpenSSH 6.7p1 Debian 5+deb8u3 (protocol 2.0)
53/tcp: dnsmaq 2.76
80/tcp: lighttp 1.4.35
