### Port Scan

We start off the box by running a port scan on the provided IP.

```sh title="Attacker Linux" icon="linux" wrap theme={null}
rustscan --ulimit 5000 -a 10.129.5.219 -r 1-65535 -- -A -vvv -oN Wingdata
```

Output of Rustscan:

```text title="Terminal Output" icon="file-lines" wrap theme={null}
Open 10.129.5.219:22
Open 10.129.5.219:80
```

Output of Nmap:

```text title="Terminal Output" icon="file-lines" wrap theme={null}
PORT   STATE SERVICE REASON         VERSION
22/tcp open  ssh     syn-ack ttl 63 OpenSSH 9.2p1 Debian 2+deb12u7 (protocol 2.0)
| ssh-hostkey:

80/tcp open  http    syn-ack ttl 63 Apache httpd 2.4.66
|_http-server-header: Apache/2.4.66 (Debian)
|_http-title: WingData Solutions
| http-methods:
|_  Supported Methods: GET POST OPTIONS HEAD
```

A few key notes:

* Port 22 (SSH) is open, running `OpenSSH 9.2p1` — nothing useful without credentials.
* Port 80 (HTTP) is open, served by `Apache httpd 2.4.66`. The page title is **"WingData Solutions"** — a file sharing platform.
* OS is Linux (Debian), inferred from the TTL of 63.

### Edit the Hosts file

As always, we edit the `/etc/hosts` file to add the hostname:

```sh title="Attacker Linux" icon="linux" wrap theme={null}
sudo nano /etc/hosts
```

/etc/hosts:

```text title="/etc/hosts" icon="file-lines" wrap theme={null}
10.129.5.219 wingdata.htb
```
