OSCP: The Red Team Rite of Passage 🎯 The Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP) certification isn’t just a milestone—it’s a mindset shift. This guide is packed with field-tested tactics, enumeration flowcharts, exploitation techniques, and privilege escalation paths every red teamer needs to pass the exam—and win real-world engagements. ⸻ 🔥 What’s Inside the OSCP Playbook 1️⃣ Enumeration Flow Like a Pro • Use nmap, gobuster, nikto, and enum4linux in a structured recon chain. • Enumerate services and identify weak entry points before touching Metasploit. 2️⃣ Web & Service Exploitation • Manual SQLi, XSS, and file upload abuse. • Exploit RCEs, LFI, and CVEs with proof-of-concept tailoring. 3️⃣ Linux Privilege Escalation • SUID/GUID hunting: find / -perm -4000 -type f 2>/dev/null • Misconfigured cron jobs and writable scripts = root. 4️⃣ Windows Privilege Escalation • Use winPEAS, PowerUp, and DLL hijacking to elevate. • Don’t forget Unquoted Service Paths and AlwaysInstallElevated abuses. 5️⃣ Buffer Overflows • Custom exploit writing from fuzzing to shell execution. • Practice using Immunity Debugger, Mona.py, and pattern_create/offset. 6️⃣ Post-Exploitation & Reporting • Get persistence, loot creds, and maintain stealth. • Document every step—your report is your exploit write-up. ⸻ 💡 Red Team Pro Tip The OSCP isn’t about tool mastery—it’s about your ability to think like an adversary under pressure. Treat every exam box like a real-world target—and remember: enumeration wins wars. Who else here survived the OSCP gauntlet?
