Linux Tips:

to navigate through a long command faster, CTRL works by going past a word at a time instead of a letter at a time (like windows) so:

hold CTRL while moving back or forward thru a line

CTRL + K d

Recommended:

  • Run LinPEAS first and then try the other tools
    • When you run LinPEAS and you don't find much or still need something, other tools could catch something it (or you (hopefully not)) missed
  • LinEnum (his favorite before LinPEAS)
  • linux-exploit-suggester
  • linuxprivchecker.py
    • python on a machine and can’t find anything
    • ALL THE TIME back in his days 😎
