I was using Vbox and I faced some problem during installation of Kioptrix on VBox.I followed these steps to let it run.
1. Create the new Virtual Machine without choosing any disk.
2. Under the setting tab, select storage, Under the IDE controller add the new existing disk (select your VMDK file of Kioptrix).
3. #Setting>ports>USB> untick “Enable USB Controller”
#Setting >Network>Advanced > from the drop down select adaptor type “PCnet-PCI II           (Am79c970A)”
#Setting > Audio > Untick “Enable Audio”
Let’s Start the Dirty game.

After Successfully installing Kioptrix, I was being greeted by this page. So first I have to find the IP address of this machine.
After running “netdiscover” command I got the IP of kioptrix which was 10.0.2.21. Now next step was scanning my target.

I used “nmap -sV 10.0.2.21” to scan.

Hereafter scanning I found port 80 is open, after browsing to that server I found nada except for this test page.

After this, I tried for samba as smb always intrigues me.
I tried “enum4linux 10.0.2.21” but I didn’t get any version details. (awkward)
This time I tried “Metasploit” and got smb version= 2.2.1a

After googling I downloaded a working exploit: https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/10
I compiled and ran this exploit and got the access.

Now next part was to get the root access. But it was way easier than I thought, I just checked by typing “whoami” and damn I was ROOT.
