{{#include ../banners/hacktricks-training.md}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
## **Basic Information**
|
|
|
|
Telnet is a network protocol that gives users a UNsecure way to access a computer over a network.
|
|
|
|
**Default port:** 23
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
23/tcp open telnet
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## **Enumeration**
|
|
|
|
### **Banner Grabbing**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nc -vn <IP> 23
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All the interesting enumeration can be performed by **nmap**:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nmap -n -sV -Pn --script "*telnet* and safe" -p 23 <IP>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The script `telnet-ntlm-info.nse` will obtain NTLM info (Windows versions).
|
|
|
|
From the [telnet RFC](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc854): In the TELNET Protocol are various "**options**" that will be sanctioned and may be used with the "**DO, DON'T, WILL, WON'T**" structure to allow a user and server to agree to use a more elaborate (or perhaps just different) set of conventions for their TELNET connection. Such options could include changing the character set, the echo mode, etc.
|
|
|
|
**I know it is possible to enumerate this options but I don't know how, so let me know if know how.**
