ASREPRoast is a security attack that exploits users who lack the **Kerberos pre-authentication required attribute**. Essentially, this vulnerability allows attackers to request authentication for a user from the Domain Controller (DC) without needing the user's password. The DC then responds with a message encrypted with the user's password-derived key, which attackers can attempt to crack offline to discover the user's password.
* **Lack of Kerberos pre-authentication**: Target users must not have this security feature enabled.
* **Connection to the Domain Controller (DC)**: Attackers need access to the DC to send requests and receive encrypted messages.
* **Optional domain account**: Having a domain account allows attackers to more efficiently identify vulnerable users through LDAP queries. Without such an account, attackers must guess usernames.
An attacker can use a man-in-the-middle position to capture AS-REP packets as they traverse the network without relying on Kerberos pre-authentication being disabled. It therefore works for all users on the VLAN.\
[ASRepCatcher](https://github.com/Yaxxine7/ASRepCatcher) allows us to do so. Moreover, the tool forces client workstations to use RC4 by altering the Kerberos negotiation.
