The One Open Rule

Lab for Firewalls: Stateless, Stateful & WAF

Scenario

The host firewalls everything by default, but one over-permissive rule slipped in. Read the iptables ruleset, find the port that's ACCEPTed, and connect to the service behind it.

Objective

Read the firewall rules to find the single allowed port, then use it.
