A CGI shell script backed by a vulnerable Bash lets a crafted HTTP header trigger Shellshock (CVE-2014-6271) for RCE. Privesc via a passwordless sudo rule on perl, one GTFOBins command to root.

A wildcard TLS certificate leaks a subdomain running MCPJam Inspector v1.4.2, whose /api/mcp/connect endpoint executes attacker-supplied commands with no authentication. Privesc via docker group membership: reactivated with newgrp, then a container mount of the host filesystem to root.

Default credentials on an exposed ZoneMinder console lead to a blind SQL injection (CVE-2024-51482) that dumps a crackable hash for SSH. Root comes from a loopback-bound motionEye reached over an SSH tunnel, where a filename field is passed unsanitised to a Motion daemon running as root (CVE-2025-60787).

Linux web box: exposed .git repo leaks PHP source revealing a SQLi, admin panel RCE via PHP rule engine, then privesc by abusing a root-run auction daemon that executes YAML-defined PHP rules.

Linux box with IKE/ISAKMP on UDP/500: crack the PSK with psk-crack, SSH in, then exploit a vulnerable sudo version (CVE-2025-32463) to root.
