INTERNAL / EXTERNAL

Network Pentesting

Internal/external network exploitation with stealthy pivoting.

What I deliver

  • Recon, enumeration & exploitation
  • Pivoting through compromised hosts
  • Privilege escalation chains
⟩ real-world projects

Selected engagements

Sanitized highlights from real client work — approach, the bug we found, and the fix shipped. Names redacted under NDA.

01

Internal network pentest pivoted through 4 segmented VLANs to OT network — air-gap myth busted

02

External engagement — exposed Jenkins + GitLab runners, full source-code exfil simulation

⟩ common vulnerabilities & how I find them

Top bugs I hunt — and the steps

The recurring weaknesses I see in this domain, with the repeatable workflow I run from discovery to fix.

01

Default / Weak Credentials

High
  1. STEP 1Banner-grab with nmap + identify mgmt interfaces (iDRAC, iLO, Jenkins, Tomcat)
  2. STEP 2Spray default creds via Hydra / CME
  3. STEP 3Pivot from web admin to OS command exec
  4. STEP 4Fix: mandatory password rotation, MFA on admin panels, network segmentation
02

SMB / EternalBlue Class Exposure

Critical
  1. STEP 1Scan with nmap NSE smb-vuln-* scripts
  2. STEP 2Confirm exploitable with Metasploit module in lab-mirror
  3. STEP 3Demonstrate RCE on test host with safe payload
  4. STEP 4Fix: patch MS17-010 family, disable SMBv1, segment legacy hosts
03

IPv6 mitm6 + NTLM Relay to ADCS

Critical
  1. STEP 1Run mitm6 to become the default IPv6 DNS server via rogue RA/DHCPv6
  2. STEP 2Coerce authentication from a target host (PetitPotam / PrinterBug)
  3. STEP 3Relay captured NTLM to the ADCS web enrollment endpoint via ntlmrelayx
  4. STEP 4Fix: disable IPv6 if unused or deploy DHCPv6 guard, disable NTLM on ADCS, require EPA + HTTPS
