Machine Synopsis

Broker is an easy difficulty `Linux` machine hosting a version of `Apache ActiveMQ`. Enumerating the version of `Apache ActiveMQ` shows that it is vulnerable to `Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution`, which is leveraged to gain user access on the target. Post-exploitation enumeration reveals that the system has a `sudo` misconfiguration allowing the `activemq` user to execute `sudo /usr/sbin/nginx`, which is similar to the recent `Zimbra` disclosure and is leveraged to gain `root` access.
