In a previous post I discussed to setup basic redirectors with Covenant C2. In this post, I hope to show you how to use domain fronting through an Azure CDN for your C2 traffic. A lot of this is based on another post I read from ar-infosec that you can find here. What is Domain…

Unprivileged User Persistence with Zoom
*** UPDATE: It looks like the most recent version of Zoom has fixed the issue of loading an unsigned DllSafeCheck.dll. This persistence technique no longer works. Thank you to @LadhaAleem for bringing this to my attention. See the Patching Zoom.exe section for details on how this can be bypassed. Zoom has been in security news…
DLL Side-loading and Zero-width Spaces
My previous post discussed using appverif.exe and DLL side-loading to execute a payload on a system. The advantage of using a legitimate Microsoft signed binary such as appverif.exe to load and execute your DLL was to bypass anti-virus and application whitelisting. One drawback to this technique is that you are executing appverif.exe outside of its…
DLL Side-loading Appverif.exe
A couple of weeks ago, FireEye published a blog called “Abusing DLL Misconfigurations.” The gist of the blog post is that when an application is executed, it will try and load DLLs for whatever functionality it needs. If the Windows Side-by-side manifest for the application does not have the explicity full path of the DLL,…
Unconstrained Delegation
One of the weaknesses that I configured in my lab environment was “Unconstrained Delegation.” Systems in an Active Directory (AD) environment can be configured for unconstrained delegation. This means that a system can “delegate”, or impersonate users that authenticate to it. Normally, when a user authenticates to a service running on a system, the user…
Kerberoasting
This post will demonstrate how to perform a “Kerberoasting” attack in an Active Directory (AD) environment. In a previous post, I detailed how to create an AD lab in AWS and how to configure a user with a Service Principal Name (SPN) that will allow for the Kerberoasting attack. Background Information Kerberoasting is an attack…
Covenant C2 Infrastructure with Redirectors
In my previous post, I wrote about getting started with Covenant C2. In that post the infrastructure I setup for the C2 communications was very simple: The C2 agents connected directly to the C2 server over a private subnet. This works for a lab environment, but for a real world redteam engagement having your C2…
Getting Started with Covenant C2
In my previous blog post, I created an Active Directory (AD) lab environment in AWS that I wanted to use to test/practice various redteam concepts and tools. One of the tools I was interested in testing is the new version of Covenant C2. Covenant is a command-and-control (C2) framework. What this means is if you…
Creating an Active Directory Lab in AWS
I recently started the Attacking and Defending Active Directory course from Pentester Academy, and just finished up the last of the hands-on objectives. The material for the course is great for anyone looking to improve their skills for enumerating and abusing Active Directory on internal penetration tests or red team engagements. The course is designed…
