RELEASEDMachine Synopsis
`Bamboo` is an medium-difficulty Linux machine that begins with discovering a `Squid` proxy. The proxy is used to scan internal ports and reveals a `PaperCut NG` instance. A known PaperCut vulnerability `[CVE-2023-27350](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-27350)` is exploited to gain a foothold. Local enumeration reveals a writable directory containing a script that runs with root privileges. By modifying the script, we obtain a shell as `root`.
