ADSyncQuery | No (network RPC calls only) | No | Yes | Yes
* **ADSyncDecrypt**: Decrypts the credentials fully on the target host. Requires the AD Connect DLLs to be in the PATH. A similar version in PowerShell was released by Adam Chester on his blog.
* **ADSyncGather**: Queries the credentials and the encryption keys on the target host, decryption is done locally (python). No DLL dependencies.
* **ADSyncQuery**: Queries the credentials from the database that is saved locally. Requires MSSQL LocalDB to be installed. No DLL dependencies. Is called from adconnectdump.py, dumps data without executing anything on the Azure AD connect host.
Credentials in ADSync : `C:\Program Files\Microsoft Azure AD Sync\Data\ADSync.mdf`
## AD Connect - DCSync with MSOL Account
You can perform **DCSync** attack using the MSOL account.
Requirements:
* Compromise a server with Azure AD Connect service
* Access to ADSyncAdmins or local Administrators groups
Use the script **azuread_decrypt_msol.ps1** from @xpn to recover the decrypted password for the MSOL account:
*`azuread_decrypt_msol.ps1`: AD Connect Sync Credential Extract POC https://gist.github.com/xpn/0dc393e944d8733e3c63023968583545
*`azuread_decrypt_msol_v2.ps1`: Updated method of dumping the MSOL service account (which allows a DCSync) used by Azure AD Connect Sync https://gist.github.com/xpn/f12b145dba16c2eebdd1c6829267b90c
Now you can use the retrieved credentials for the MSOL Account to launch a DCSync attack.
## AD Connect - Seamless Single Sign On Silver Ticket
> Anyone who can edit properties of the AZUREADSSOACCS$ account can impersonate any user in Azure AD using Kerberos (if no MFA)
> Seamless SSO is supported by both PHS and PTA. If seamless SSO is enabled, a computer account **AZUREADSSOC** is created in the on-prem AD.
:warning: The password of the AZUREADSSOACC account never changes.
Using [https://autologon.microsoftazuread-sso.com/](https://autologon.microsoftazuread-sso.com/) to convert Kerberos tickets to SAML and JWT for Office 365 & Azure
1. NTLM password hash of the AZUREADSSOACC account, e.g. `f9969e088b2c13d93833d0ce436c76dd`.
2. AAD logon name of the user we want to impersonate, e.g. `elrond@contoso.com`. This is typically either his userPrincipalName or mail attribute from the on-prem AD.
3. SID of the user we want to impersonate, e.g. `S-1-5-21-2121516926-2695913149-3163778339-1234`.
4. Create the Silver Ticket and inject it into Kerberos cache:
6. Go to about:config and set the `network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris preference` to value `https://aadg.windows.net.nsatc.net,https://autologon.microsoftazuread-sso.com`
7. Navigate to any web application that is integrated with our AAD domain. Fill in the user name, while leaving the password field empty.
