Enumeration

The hint showed that the longest username in RID range 1000–1003 has an insecure password. We then run enum4linux to enumerate the users.

enum4linux -a 10.10.156.34

So now we have users

kel, des, tryhackme, noentry

Now let’s get access to the system via this user by brute-forcing the SSH service Using hydra tool.

hydra -l tryhackme -P rockyou.txt ssh://10.10.156.34
