kerberos golden ticket attack | how it works | dcsync | secretsdump.py

assuming you have already compromised the domain and AD is in your control. this attack is mainly done for maintaining persistency. if they get to know this and change the administrator account password, they cannot prevent this attack.

 

in every AD there is an account called krbtgt. through this account is disabled, but the system use this account's password hash to encrypt data that are send by kerberos protocol. if we get the ntlm password hash of this account, then we can create tickets using mimikatz, which is called golden ticket to impersonate anyone in the domain. 

so now we need to get the ntlm hash of krbtgt account. 


first go to properties of scrm.local

security tab> advanced

here you can see that Tom Star user has replicating directory changes access. when any user has this permission then he/she can perform dcsync attack. it allows them to impersonate domain controller and synchronize password hashes. it basically tells other dc that hey we are same. in order to walk together i need your password hashes. 

 


scrm.local is the domain name. here we already configured the local dns server to point to that domain so that we can use domain name here. 

192.168.0.79 is the domain controller ip. 

now we get the hash of krbtgt account. 


 

sid: sid can be any domain account sid. as you have able to compromise tstar user account so we are assuming that you have that user sid. btw here we have given scrm domain administrator accounts sid. 

/user:Administrator means we want to make ticket of Administrator user account as we want to impersonate this account.

/krbtgt hash that we have captured earlier using tstar account. 

/ptt --> if you dont give this then it will just create the ticket and save it on a file. but when you give this then it will associates the ticket with the logon session. you can check with klist windows command. 


we are performing this attack from a non-domain machine. 


now lets mount the domain controller share. this would not have been possible if it is done by the normal user (it will ask for password for the username), but as we have administrator token, so we can. you can see that the share mount went successfully.

Installtion of SQLMutant tool

This tool is perfectly works on ubuntu 24 system. And I found it is not working properly in kali linux 24 version.   https://github.com/blackhatethicalhacking/SQLMutant/tree/main This tool need to use along with sqlmap tool. Showing this cheat sheet for kali or debian based system.  This tool actually analyze everything and give you the vulnerable url where sql injection is possible. You just need to use then sqlmap to exploit that.   Prerequisite: apt install pipx -y (for ubuntu) pip3 install uro or pipx install uro pipx ensurepath pipx completions  (not needed)  source ~/.bashrc   or restart system If go tool is not installed then run the below two commands first ( golang-go ) or follow this link to install go (https://mahimfiroj.blogspot.com/2024/12/installing-nuclei-in-kali.html) otherwise skip this step.   dpkg -l | grep packagename (Using this command you can check package is installed or not) apt install gccgo-go -y or apt install gol...

Install Nessus from docker

Docker installation. Give the below commands one by one. apt install docker-cli or apt install docker.io After the installation is complete, if you are inside wsl then give this command to start docker, because inside wsl systemd (systemctl) does not work: service docker start WSL troubleshooting : If the above command " service docker start " does not work then use below command: dockerd (It may not work if any previous docker process is running. It will show you pid of that process. Use this command to kill that process " kill -9 pid " and run dockerd command again) If " docker ps -a " giving error like " Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///run/podman/podman.sock. Is the docker daemon running? " This is because you may installed podman-docker package. If you remove the package still you will get this error but you should remove the package. Then issue this command: env | grep -i docker DOCKER_HOST=unix:///run/podman/podman.sock   --...

WSL - windows subsystem for linux

  1. From the start menu, type "Turn Windows features on or off". Check the box, Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Subsystem for Linux or in the command prompt simply give this command: wsl.exe --install --no-distribution Now Restart the system.  If wsl is already installed, then give this command: wsl.exe --update 2. Now from Microsoft store download kali linux and install it. Or you can give this command to see list of distributions. Then install based on your choice.  To see list of distributions: wsl.exe --list --online To install: wsl.exe --install --distribution <Distro Name> i.e.  wsl --install --distribution kali-linux 3. Now it will ask for username and password, say at the time of installing kali-linux here. Provide that.  4. Once it is installed, it has come with very minimum package installation.  Run the following commands to install all packages: sudo apt update sudo apt full-upgrade -y sudo apt install -y kali-linux-default (This re...
