# HTB - Sense

![Sense](https://3391461163-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-M-SeUOaaky_0dmtDTFu%2F-M4S9nqbTRqtLdOZBfSV%2F-M4SPkizDt-0F6XzLlzj%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=c8f8d53d-ab0c-4032-a631-158d6f4ddaf1)

## Getting Root

1. Found a username named **rohit** under a text file we found using **gobuster**
2. Used the default password **pfsense** and logged in to the admin panel
3. From the admin panel we noticed the version was **2.1.3** and **exploit-db** had a python exploit which got us root access

### Tools Used:

**`nmap, gobuster, searchsploit`**

## Nmap
