Stuck in Get a File from a Remote Host
Hello,
i play Singleplayer and im Stuck in a Mission, where I should obtain a File from a Remote Machine.
I managed to get Root Access to 2 Routers in the LAN, however the Target PC has no Open Ports and you cant get the E-Mail Adress of the User to get a RShell to him via Social Engineering. All other Systems in the Lan are not usefull, since they dont have open ports as well.
Am I missing something or is this Mission bugged?

Can't is a strong word, and it does not apply here.

Well, i checked all systems and found no configuration file on any of them with the possible E-Mail Address of the User Im looking for. I got the Username and Password from the Admin, however if I send a E-Mail to that user (which matches other company E-Mails i found) i get no reply to my RShell E-Mail.

Assuming from you answer, there should be one?

Some missions will require tools or knowledge that you don't have yet.

I'm on a mission like that, as well. Also in single player mode. Are you trying to get a file from a user on target computer named 'Nightshan'? If so, that's the one I'm on.

I honestly think it's a bug as it's impossible to open ports where the services aren't installed as well as there being no list of emails anywhere.

If Xephael knows of a way and wants to stop trolling then I'd love to gain the 'knowledge' he's talking about. Unless it's all a bluff.

There's no bug here, networks are randomly generated so you wouldn't be on the same one, but this mission type tends to be on computers that don't have services running. The way you get in is rshells which Illiminator31 already knows about, the trick is getting the email address which I cannot really assist with, besides the information contained in this guide: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2844216972

So, I now realize that as I have been figuring out ways to hack into all the computers on the network. I also found that cctvs produce a lot of info when looking through them. Thanks for the guide, I'll look through it and see if I can get past this mission.

Although, I'm not sure if this is a legit bug. But I am unable to connect to a camera, via the browser. Even though I'm able to successfully ping the camera. I was even able to shell into the camera, but I'm not seeing any discrepancies.

That's not enough information to really determine what's happening, but if you want more back and forth assistance you'd be better off using the discord: https://discord.gg/greyhack

I just added this discord. I'll ask there

The game does kind of a poor job in teaching you how things actually work and pushes you to learn their computer coding software or "Skiddie" using other people's work. If you still have trouble with this mission, I would highly suggest finding some public repositories on github in order to locate tools that best help you in your ability to perform these missions.

So, either; And this is allllllllllllllllll Rshell related
A. You must use a router bounce exploit in order to gain a file shell. "Router bouncing" is the act of using a vulnerable router to 'exploit network traffic' (More layman - exploit the router to exploit the computer) and gain access that way. Then you may gather the emails needed to rshell the computer you need to gain the file. You may be able to just SCP the file over in this case;

and more rarely
B. You must use the CCTV cameras in order to extract information that'll best help you to gain an email for the victim you are attacking.

You must gain an email for 2 users in the network. ONE to crack and take advantage of, and the other, the victim on the local IP you are attacking. If you send your social engineering attempt through your primary email, you are NOT ONLY exposing yourself to multiplayer spam attacks (I leave this in because you might want to one day open yourself to Multiplayer which houses amazing subscription-based tools such as RedFox.py) the user will 95% of the time respond with "I don't know you."

I appreciate the reply. I actually found how to accomplish the router exploit. I'm very familiar with programming and app development, in general, so learning this greyscript was pretty easy.

It has been established that it is in fact a bug if there's a cctv sitting behind a pretty locked down switch, it will keep saying failed to reach address once you get on the same subnet.

But creating the exploit was a pretty fun challenge.

I solved a similar case in which the target computer has no open ports. I found the target email adress in a student database with StudentsViewer.exe on a server with the service "employees". You could probably also look for the other sql-services "students" and "criminals" and viewers as well.
