## AD Explorer [AD Explorer](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/adexplorer) is from Sysinternal Suite: > An advanced Active Directory (AD) viewer and editor. You can use AD Explorer to navigate an AD database easily, define favourite locations, view object properties, and attributes without opening dialog boxes, edit permissions, view an object's schema, and execute sophisticated searches that you can save and re-execute. ### Snapshots AD Explorer can create snapshots of an AD so you can check it offline.\ It can be used to discover vulns offline, or to compare different states of the AD DB across the time. You will be requires the username, password, and direction to connect (any AD user is required). To take a snapshot of AD, go to `File` --> `Create Snapshot` and enter a name for the snapshot. ## ADRecon ****[**ADRecon**](https://github.com/adrecon/ADRecon) is a tool which extracts and combines various artefacts out of an AD environment. The information can be presented in a **specially formatted** Microsoft Excel **report** that includes summary views with metrics to facilitate analysis and provide a holistic picture of the current state of the target AD environment. ```bash # Run it .\ADRecon.ps1 ``` ## BloodHound > BloodHound is a single page Javascript web application, built on top of [Linkurious](http://linkurio.us), compiled with [Electron](http://electron.atom.io), with a [Neo4j](https://neo4j.com)database fed by a PowerShell ingestor. > > BloodHound uses graph theory to reveal the hidden and often unintended relationships within an Active Directory environment. Attackers can use BloodHound to easily identify highly complex attack paths that would otherwise be impossible to quickly identify. Defenders can use BloodHound to identify and eliminate those same attack paths. Both blue and red teams can use BloodHound to easily gain a deeper understanding of privilege relationships in an Active Directory environment. > > BloodHound is developed by [@\_wald0](https://www.twitter.com/\_wald0), [@CptJesus](https://twitter.com/CptJesus), and [@harmj0y](https://twitter.com/harmj0y). > > From [https://github.com/BloodHoundAD/BloodHound](https://github.com/BloodHoundAD/BloodHound) So, [Bloodhound ](https://github.com/BloodHoundAD/BloodHound)is an amazing tool which can enumerate a domain automatically, save all the information, find possible privilege escalation paths and show all the information using graphs. Booldhound is composed of 2 main parts: **ingestors** and the **visualisation application**. The **ingestors** are used to **enumerate the domain and extract all the information** in a format that the visualisation application will understand. The **visualisation application uses neo4j** to show how all the information is related and to show different ways to escalate privileges in the domain. ### Installation 1. Bloodhound To install the visualisation application you will need to install **neo4j** and the **bloodhound application**.\ The easiest way to do this is just doing: ``` apt-get install bloodhound ``` You can **download the community version of neo4j** from [here](https://neo4j.com/download-center/#community). 1. Ingestors You can download the Ingestors from: * https://github.com/BloodHoundAD/SharpHound/releases * https://github.com/BloodHoundAD/BloodHound/releases * https://github.com/fox-it/BloodHound.py 1. Learn the path from the graph Bloodhound come with various queries to highlight sensitive compromission path. It it possible to add custom queries to enhance the search and correlation between objects and more! This repo has a nice collections of queries: https://github.com/CompassSecurity/BloodHoundQueries Installation process: ``` $ curl -o "~/.config/bloodhound/customqueries.json" "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompassSecurity/BloodHoundQueries/master/BloodHound_Custom_Queries/customqueries.json" ``` ### Visualisation app Execution After downloading/installing the required applications, lets start them.\ First of all you need to **start the neo4j database**: ```bash ./bin/neo4j start #or service neo4j start ``` The first time that you start this database you will need to access [http://localhost:7474/browser/](http://localhost:7474/browser/). You will be asked default credentials (neo4j:neo4j) and you will be **required to change the password**, so change it and don't forget it. Now, start the **bloodhound application**: ```bash ./BloodHound-linux-x64 #or bloodhound ``` You will be prompted for the database credentials: **neo4j:\** And bloodhound will be ready to ingest data. ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (171) (1).png>) ### SharpHound They have several options but if you want to run SharpHound from a PC joined to the domain, using your current user and extract all the information you can do: ``` ./SharpHound.exe --CollectionMethods All Invoke-BloodHound -CollectionMethod All ``` > You can read more about **CollectionMethod** and loop session [here](https://bloodhound.readthedocs.io/en/latest/data-collection/sharphound-all-flags.html) If you wish to execute SharpHound using different credentials you can create a CMD netonly session and run SharpHound from there: ``` runas /netonly /user:domain\user "powershell.exe -exec bypass" ``` [**Learn more about Bloodhound in ired.team.**](https://ired.team/offensive-security-experiments/active-directory-kerberos-abuse/abusing-active-directory-with-bloodhound-on-kali-linux) **Windows Silent** ### **Python bloodhound** If you have domain credentials you can run a **python bloodhound ingestor from any platform** so you don't need to depend on Windows.\ Download it from [https://github.com/fox-it/BloodHound.py](https://github.com/fox-it/BloodHound.py) or doing `pip3 install bloodhound` ```bash bloodhound-python -u support -p '#00^BlackKnight' -ns 10.10.10.192 -d blackfield.local -c all ``` If you are running it through proxychains add `--dns-tcp` for the DNS resolution to work throught the proxy. ```bash proxychains bloodhound-python -u support -p '#00^BlackKnight' -ns 10.10.10.192 -d blackfield.local -c all --dns-tcp ``` ### Python SilentHound This script will **quietly enumerate an Active Directory Domain via LDAP** parsing users, admins, groups, etc. Check it out in [**SilentHound github**](https://github.com/layer8secure/SilentHound). ### RustHound BloodHound in Rust, [**check it here**](https://github.com/OPENCYBER-FR/RustHound). ## Group3r [**Group3r**](https://github.com/Group3r/Group3r) **** is a tool to find **vulnerabilities** in Active Directory associated **Group Policy**. \ You need to **run group3r** from a host inside the domain using **any domain user**. ```bash group3r.exe -f # -s sends results to stdin # -f send results to file ``` ## PingCastle ****[**PingCastle**](https://www.pingcastle.com/documentation/) **evaluates the security posture of an AD environment** and provides a nice **report** with graphs. To run it, can execute the binary `PingCastle.exe` and it will start an **interactive session** presenting a menu of options. The default option to use is **`healthcheck`** which will establish a baseline **overview** of the **domain**, and find **misconfigurations** and **vulnerabilities**.
