7MS #640: Tales of Pentest Pwnage – Part 63
This was my favorite pentest tale of pwnage to date! There’s a lot to cover in this episode so I’m going to try and bullet out the TLDR version here: Sprinkled farmer files around the environment Found high-priv boxes with WebClient enabled Added “ghost” machine to the Active Directory (we’ll call it GHOSTY) RBCD attack to be able to impersonate a domain admin using the CIFS/SMB service against the victim system where some higher-priv users were sitting Use net.py to add myself to local admin on the victim host Find a vulnerable service to hijack and have run an evil, TGT-gathering Rubeus.exe – found that Credential Guard was cramping my style! Pulled the TGT from a host not protected with Credential Guard Figured out the stolen user’s account has some “write” privileges to a domain controller Use rbcd.py to delegate from GHOSTY and to the domain controller Request a TGT for GHOSTY Use getST.py to impersonate CIFS using a domain admin account on the domain controller (important thing here was to specify the DC by its FQDN, not just hostname) Final move: use the domain admin ccache file to leverage net.py and add myself to the Active Directory Administrators group

7MS #638: Tales of Pentest Pwnage – Part 61
Today we’re talking pentesting – specifically some mini gems that can help you escalate local/domain/SQL privileges: Check the C: drive! If you get local admin and the system itself looks boring, check root of C – might have some interesting scripts or folders with tools that have creds in them. Also look at Look at Get-ScheduledTasks Find ids and passwords easily in Snaffler output with this Snaffler cleaner script There’s a ton of gold to (potentially) be found in SQL servers – check out my notes on using PowerUpSQL to find misconfigs and agent jobs you might able to abuse!

7MS #636: A Prelude to BPATTY(RELOADED)
Artificial hype alert! I’m working on a NEW version of BPATTY (Brian’s Pentesting and Technical Tips for You), but it is delayed because of a weird domain name hostage negotiation situation. It’s weird. But in the meantime I want to talk about the project (which is a pentest documentation library built on Docusaurus) and how I think it will be bigger/better/stronger/faster/cooler than BPATTY v1 (which is now in archive/read-only mode).
