AutoRecon VS OSCP-Exam-Report-Template

pipx install git+https://github.com/Tib3rius/AutoRecon.git

Yeah it's been out for about a year now. Same repo, just a version update. https://github.com/Tib3rius/AutoRecon

smbmap - I believe so as it is a part of https://github.com/Tib3rius/AutoRecon

It sounds like you’re looking for something like AutoRecon.

I used AutoRecon (thanks tibs) and PEAS for both linux and windows privesc. But again, the reason I failed the first time was because I relied to heavily on these tools. I really like the disclaimer on the autorecon github:

Initial Recon/Exploitation - Initial scan your target with either autorecon (https://github.com/Tib3rius/AutoRecon) or an in-depth nmap scan. Then, for each port, enumerate with commands from hacktricks (https://book.hacktricks.xyz/), (https://fareedfauzi.gitbook.io/oscp-notes/services-enumeration/http-s/enumeration-checklist) and (https://web.archive.org/web/20200309204648/http://0daysecurity.com/penetration-testing/enumeration.html) but you could honestly just get away with hacktricks. If you see any sort of service, CMS, or whatever running, searchsploit it. Sometimes, you might get lucky and find an exploit that you can use or can keep in your back pocket for PE later. If you need help with how to actually do an exploit (https://ippsec.rocks/?#) is your friend. IPPSEC is the GOAT.

I had never done any formal pentesting reports like this one, so I kind of learned it on the fly. The whoisflynn template came in clutch for me, since I just had to follow the instructions laid out and copy paste whatever I needed to. Don’t underestimate this part of the exam, and do some planning beforehand to make sure you’re comfortable and have enough time. There isn’t an upper limit to detail in the report, and I was sure I was very detailed in my writeups.

Was easy to be honest. The way I work was to create reports for all boxes I did in the PWK, proving grounds and HTB as if they were real engagements. I used a template in Joplin I found here https://github.com/whoisflynn/OSCP-Exam-Report-Template. During my practice I would document my findings as I went through and edited out things I didn't need.

As for the report, I used this template, and removed most sections such as remediation, and added another section for common tools that I used that needs to leave a link to (i.e. Nishang's repo, Feroxbuster, AutoRecon, etc.)

I used https://github.com/whoisflynn/OSCP-Exam-Report-Template for my report

I had the same thing, the template looks very differently from what I would've done on my own. In the end I decided to follow the template (or more specifically, this version, since it made more sense to me) as closely as possible, only diverging when I had to, for instance when there were certain vulnerabilities I had to exploit before I could do the actual exploit that I used to obtain a shell, but that didn't allow me to obtain a shell themselves directly. In those cases I put those explanations in the initial description.
