Course Description

This course teaches privilege escalation in Linux, from basics such as how permissions work, to in-depth coverage and demonstrations of actual privilege escalation techniques. The course comes with a full set of slides (170+), and an intentionally misconfigured Debian VM which can be used by students to practice their own privilege escalation.


Please note that this course is aimed at students currently taking, or planning to take the OSCP, and thus covers more common forms of privilege escalation. Some extra methods are included, and more methods may be added in the future, however this course was not designed to cover every possible (or obscure) method.

not comprehensive for oscp

By Jamie Eccleston on 4/11/2021

The course was comprehensive and was what I needed to approach my OSCP exam. At first I didn't understand the rootbash clone exactly- I had to look up bash privileged mode which could have been easily explained as not resetting the EUID. I understand the rootbash clone now but it would have faster if it was made clearer it's meant to be a persistence/backdoor method as opposed to being necessary for escalation (I was a noob).

Absolutely brillirant!

By Cory Wilson on 10/22/2020

As far as I'm concerned, Tib3rus is a pen-testing legend. Great material and so far the course is already filling in gaps that I didn't get/understand from OSCP Course material.
