1- DVWA Brute forcing Walkthrough with Burp and Hydra

in this video we are going to see what is boot forcing and how we can practice boot forcing with damn vulnerable web application we are going to solve brute forcing challenges on dvwa with verb and Hydra boot forcing is a technique used in computer science to try a large number of possibilities such as passwords or keys in order to find the correct one it involves trying every possible combination until the correct one is found we will use burp suit and Hydra to boot Force the login form provided by dvwa in this challenge we will test a password list against the user and try to log in as the target user now you should be on Kali Linux or parrot OS in VMware virtualbox or running natively on your PC now let's first see the low difficulty dvwf boot forcing challenge go to dvwis security settings and set the difficulty to low now fire up the burp suit in your Kali Linux set the proxy in your Firefox to use burp as epoxy you can also use the foxy proxy add-on to set the bird proxy the submit a request from Firefox login with the wrong credentials the complete request will be shown in the verb now right click on it and send into the Intruder module in the Intruder module clear all Targets and locate the password file and add it as a Target now in the payloads tab you can set the word list I'm using John dot list now start the attack verb will try to brute force it keep looking for the response size the request response with the change response size will be our match password we can also do this attack with Hydra Hydra is a network login tracking tool that is used to perform brute forcing attacks on network protocols such as HTTP FTP telnet and SSH Hydra can boot Force the password much faster than Berk fruit Community Edition however you need to format the command for it you need to provide it complete URL of the form which you can get from the network tab if you inspect a page just replace username and password with the capital user and password respectively with flags get the cookie information from the storage tab in the debug menu and set the login failure information with the flag then you can use the following command to Brute Force the password with Hydra your admin is a target user and we are using a word list to crack the password and the target is HTTP get form once the password is cracked it will be displayed on screen now let's get to the Practical part so on your current machine you can see dvwa web application just change the security level to low now select the Brute Force tab and you can see a login form if you try to log in with the wrong credentials you will get the error username and password incorrect and if you look at the URL you will see the complete URL which indicates that it is a get request you can also get the complete URL from the network tab to suspect the page go to the network Tab and you can see the complete URL now start the bird fluid create a temporary project and go to the proxy tab Now set the Firefox to use burp as proxy if you have foxy proxy add-on installed you can just click on burp now turn on the intercept inverp and send the request from Firefox and the request will be captured in burp now right click on the request and send it to the intruder now clear all Targets choose the password field and add it as Target now in the payloads tab select your word list I am using john.list in this case and now start the attack but will start writing the password keep an eye on the length tab you can sort the responses by length size by clicking on length tab you can see that the password payload has a changed length size which means that it is our correct password you can check it in the response tab and you can see that we have received the response welcome to the password protected area you can also check it in our main tab now from the inspect tab you can go to the network settings get the complete URL of the page go to the storage tab get your cookie values and format the Hydra command as we have discussed earlier now use the command as shown on the screen just press enter and Hydra will crack a password now let's just solve the medium difficulty dvwf brute forcing challenge the medium difficulty adds a delay between different attempts and can be solved in a similar fashion where the attack will be much slower just capture a new request and send it to the Intruder and brute force it in a similar fashion you will notice that only the cookie value has changed to medium and the tag is much slower similarly in Hydra we just need to change the cookie value to medium and use the same command as a flow difficulty and we can still get the dvw medium difficulty password we will notice a much slower attack but we will be able to break through it now on your Kali Linux change the difficulty to medium go to The Brute Force tab you can view the source code at the server and you can see that only a sanitization of user input is being performed and the other thing is that it is adding delay of 2 seconds now in web Turn The Intercept on and capture a new request send it to the intruder clear all Targets and use the password field at the Target only set your payload as john.list file and start the attack but will start clicking the password but you can see that our responses are much slower and burp has successfully correct the password which is password in this case now to crack the password with Hydra use the command as shown on the screen we have just changed the cookie value to medium we are using Dash V flag to get more information from Hydra and dash I is being used to ignore any errors if there are any and you can see that Hydra has successfully cracked the password but it has taken much more time than the last challenge now let's solve the high difficulty dvw brute forcing challenge in high difficulty a csrf token is generated for each request so it becomes very difficult to boot Force Through It Hydra fails completely and give false positives so we cannot use it in isolation to break the password in high difficulty now generate a new request and send it to a bug box scene following the same steps send it to the Intruder in a tutor we need to perform a few additional steps select both the password and token fields at Targets not change attack type to pitch for attack now in payload section for Target 1 select the same john.list file for the second payload select to use recursive graph now in the options tab add a new grab extract and select the token to extract it ensure that the redirections are set to always now in the resource we will create a new pool with only one thread and start the attack the bird will find the password which will have a change response length now let's see the attack in action back on your Curry Linux change the dvws iot to high first of all let's use Hydra to boot force it and you can see that it is giving us false positives if you look at the source code you will see that it first of all checks for ntcs RF token so in verb Turn The Intercept on generate a new request captured it in verb forward you to the intruder change the attack type to Pitchfork foreign field as your first Target and token field as your second target now go to the payload section now choose John dot list as the first payload list for the second payload set change the type to recursive graph now go into the options tab in the grab extract section click to add a new graph extract a new window will open click on fetch response find the generative token and highlight it now choose the option to start at offset and enter fixed length then click ok now in grab math section clear the listing list add incorrect as we received password incorrect response in case of a wrong password now scroll down and set the redirections to always now go to the tab of resource pool now create a new resource pool and set the threads to 1. and click on start attack and you will see that burp will start tracking the password and in a few seconds it will crack our password the tag is much slower but it will still work and we can see that it has found our password
