This is another HackTheBox VM walkthrough, and this is for the VM called "Lame".
As always, you'll need a Kali machine for attacking, VPN access to HackTheBox, on a VIP membership, and a bit of time ;)

A quick walkthrough of the "Blue" VM from HackTheBox

For this you'll need a Kali / Parrot Linux box, either as a normal machine, or as a VM, a VIP account at HackTheBox, VPN access set up and working knowledge of Metasploit Framework, and Nmap.

So, what is penetration testing ?. It's sometimes also called ethical hacking, security research and a lot of other fancy stuff, but it's almost the same thing. It's hacking in a legal way,

And why do i stress that ? Because as soon as you mention the word hacking, security testing, a bit like when you mention lockpicking, the listener always assume it's illegal, and I'm pretty tired of that !
Anything you read here is done in a controlled environment, with permission, or in labs made for trying out pentesting, and so should you. Don't be an **hat..

So, now it's time to test against our first VM, for this article I've used the VM called "Legacy" from HackTheBox, So, boot into your Kali box, and log into the HackTheBox VPN, and let's get going.

just some quick notes on theming Kali, nothing fancy.
