Sudo Privilege Escalation: CVE-2023-22809 Simulation This project simulates the Sudo privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2023-22809) to demonstrate how unauthorized root access can be gained. It involves identifying and exploiting this vulnerability in a controlled environment using Parrot OS, the Sudo command, and Bash scripting.# SUDO Privilege Escalation
**Overview:**
This project demonstrates the exploitation of the Sudo privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2023-22809). The objective is to simulate how an attacker can gain unauthorized root access by exploiting this vulnerability in a controlled environment.
**Technologies Used:**
**Operating Systems:** Parrot OS, Ubuntu
**Tools:** Sudo command, Bash scripting
**Environment:** Virtualized environment for safe testing and execution
**Steps Involved**
**Manual Attack Simulation:** First, manually simulated the vulnerability to understand its mechanics and potential impact.
**Exploit Development:** Developed a Bash script to automate the exploitation process.
**Execution:** Ran the automated script in a safe, virtualized environment to confirm the effectiveness of the exploit.
**Mitigation:** Identified and applied countermeasures to secure the system against this vulnerability.
**Documentation:** Provided detailed guidance on the attack process, automation, and mitigation strategies.
**Files Included**
**Learning Objective SUDO Privilege Escalation in LINUX:** Outlines the learning goals and objectives for understanding Sudo privilege escalation in Linux environments.
**Lab Manual SUDO Privilege Escalation in LINUX:** Provides detailed instructions for the hands-on lab simulation, including attack procedures and prevention techniques.
**Automation Script (Bash) SUDO Privilege Escalation in LINUX:** Contains the Bash script used to automate the exploitation process.
**SUDO Privilege Escalation in LINUX (PowerPoint Presentation):** Summarizes the project, including the attack simulation, automation script, and findings.
**How to Use**
