### Code
|
|
|
|
The following code from [here](https://medium.com/@seemant.bisht24/understanding-and-abusing-access-tokens-part-ii-b9069f432962). It allows to **indicate a Process ID as argument** and a CMD **running as the user** of the indicated process will be run.\
|
|
Running in a High Integrity process you can **indicate the PID of a process running as System** (like winlogon, wininit) and execute a cmd.exe as system.

### Error
|
|
|
|
On some occasions you may try to impersonate System and it won't work showing an output like the following:
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
[+] OpenProcess() success!
|
|
[+] OpenProcessToken() success!
|
|
[-] ImpersonatedLoggedOnUser() Return Code: 1
|
|
[-] ImpersonatedLoggedOnUser() Error: 5
|
|
[-] DuplicateTokenEx() Return Code: 0
|
|
[-] DupicateTokenEx() Error: 5
|
|
[-] CreateProcessWithTokenW Return Code: 0
|
|
[-] CreateProcessWithTokenW Error: 1326
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This means that even if you are running on a High Integrity level **you don't have enough permissions**.\
|
|
Let's check current Administrator permissions over `svchost.exe` processes with **processes explorer** (or you can also use process hacker):
|
|
|
|
1. Select a process of `svchost.exe`
|
|
2. Right Click --> Properties
|
|
3. Inside "Security" Tab click in the bottom right the button "Permissions"
|
|
4. Click on "Advanced"
|
|
5. Select "Administrators" and click on "Edit"
|
|
6. Click on "Show advanced permissions"
|
|
|
|
.png>)
|
|
|
|
The previous image contains all the privileges that "Administrators" have over the selected process (as you can see in case of `svchost.exe` they only have "Query" privileges)
|
|
|
|
See the privileges "Administrators" have over `winlogon.exe`:
|
|
|
|
.png>)
|
|
|
|
Inside that process "Administrators" can "Read Memory" and "Read Permissions" which probably allows Administrators to impersonate the token used by this process.
