## DotNetNuke (DNN)

If you enter as **administrator** in DNN it's easy to obtain RCE.

## RCE

### Via SQL

A SQL console is accessible under the **`Settings`** page where you can enable **`xp_cmdshell`** and **run operating system commands**.

Use these lines to enable **`xp_cmdshell`**:

```sql
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', '1'
RECONFIGURE
EXEC sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell', '1'
RECONFIGURE
```

And press **"Run Script"** to run that sQL sentences.

Then, use something like the following to run OS commands:

```sql
xp_cmdshell 'whoami'
```

### Via ASP webshell

In `Settings -> Security -> More -> More Security Settings` you can **add new allowed extensions** under `Allowable File Extensions`, and then clicking the `Save` button.

Add **`asp`** or **`aspx`** and then in **`/admin/file-management`** upload an **asp webshell** called `shell.asp` for example.

Then access to **`/Portals/0/shell.asp`** to access your webshell.

### Privilege Escalation

You can **escalate privileges** using the **Potatoes** or **PrintSpoofer** for example.
