🧾 SMB Enumeration: Finding Hidden Network Data

SMB (Server Message Block) is a Windows protocol for sharing files and services. In pentests or labs, SMB enumeration can uncover open shares, weak permissions, and sensitive data often without full access. Image
🧠 Key Concepts

• Understand what SMB is and why it matters after initial recon
• Identify SMB services running on ports 139 and 445
• Enumerate shares, sessions, users, and files sometimes anonymously
• Use tools to automate and speed up the process
🔧 Tools and Usage (Lab Only)

• Nmap with SMB scripts
nmap -p 445 –script smb-enum-shares,smb-enum-users 10.10.10.5

• smbclient (Linux)
smbclient -L //10.10.10.5 -N
smbclient //10.10.10.5/share -U guest

• enum4linux-ng
enum4linux-ng 10.10.10.5

📡 Wireless Credential Dumping: Lab-Based Wi-Fi Password Extraction 🧪🔐

Wireless credential dumping is the lab-based extraction of Wi-Fi passwords to understand and prevent key leaks 🛡️ Image
🧠 Common Wireless Credential Dumping Techniques:

🔸 Windows Stored Wi-Fi Keys
View saved networks using:
netsh wlan show profiles
netsh wlan show profile “SSID” key=clear

🔸 Linux Systems
Wi-Fi creds are often stored in:
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/
🔸 Rogue AP / Evil Twin
Set up fake access points to trick devices into connecting — capture the handshake and crack it offline using aircrack-ng or hashcat.

🔸 WPA2-PSK Handshake Attacks
Use airodump-ng and aireplay-ng to capture handshakes for brute-force attempts

🌐 DNS, ASN, and CIDR Explained Like a Hacker 🧠🔍

✅ DNS (Domain Name System)
Think of DNS as the internet’s contact list. It turns domain names (like ) into IP addresses (142.250.x.x) so devices can talk

See More….⤵️ google.comImage
⚙️ DNS Flow

1.Browser checks cache 🔎
2.If not found, it asks your DNS resolver (ISP, etc.)
3.Resolver queries the root ➡️ TLD ➡️ Authoritative name server
IP is returned, and the site loads 🎯4.Final
🛰️ ASN (Autonomous System Number)
An ASN identifies a network (ISP, cloud provider, etc.) on the internet using BGP (Border Gateway Protocol)

⚙️ Why It Matters

•ASNs own IP blocks
•They tell the internet: “I manage these IPs”
•Routers use this info to route traffic
