PowerView

SharpView is the .NET version of PowerView; it can be useful when PowerShell is restricted.

# Domain information
Get-Domain

# Domain SID
Get-DomainSID

# DC info
Get-DomainController

When forging tickets, the Kerberos-related policies are typically set to the default values by the tools (e.g. mimikatz, rubeus) automatically. If the domain has custom values, the mismatch will probably cause issues.

# Domain policies
Get-DomainPolicyData

The unfiltered command will result in a massive output:

# List the specified attributes of all domain users
Get-DomainUser | select samaccountname

# Query about a specified user
Get-DomainUser -Identity ca_svc

# Search for a particular string in a user's attribute
Get-DomainUser -LDAPFilter "Description=*built*" | select name,description

OPSEC: The logonCount attribute can help in identifying honeypot or dormant accounts; make sure to not attack these as they will generate a lot of alerts!

# Filter by logonCount
Get-DomainUser | select samaccountname,logonCount

# Enumerate honeypot accounts
Get-DomainUser | Where-Object {$_.logoncount -eq 0}

# Discard honeypot accounts
Get-DomainUser | Where-Object {$_.logoncount -gt 0}

# List the specified attributes of all computer objects
Get-DomainComputer | select operatingsystem,dnshostname

By default, a domain user can add up to 10 domain objects. As a result, there is a good chance that not all of them are real hosts. Use logonCount to check:

Get-DomainComputer | select dnshostname,logonCount

When querying about Domain Admins members, -500 indicates that this is the default Administrator account, while -1000+ indicates that it is user-created.

OPSEC: Stay away from DAs → the most well-protected and monitored account!

# Domain groups
Get-DomainGroup | select name

# Domain groups that contain "admin"
Get-DomainGroup *admin* | select name

# Group members
Get-DomainGroup 'Domain Admins' | select member
Get-DomainGroupMember -Identity "Domain Admins" -Recurse

# User memberships
Get-DomainGroup -Username "user" | select name

If operating from a child domain, the forest root need to be enumerated separately using -Domain or cross-domain trust enumeration. For instance, the Enterprise Admins group only exists in the forest root.

# Domain groups in the forest root (will include Enterprise Admins)
Get-DomainGroup -Domain forestroot.local | select name

Querying for local groups require admin rights on non-DC machines:

# Local groups
Get-NetLocalGroup -ComputerName dcopr-dc

# Group members
Get-NetLocalGroupMember -ComputerName dcorp-dc -GroupName Administrators

# Shares on domain hosts
Invoke-ShareFinder -Verbose
Find-DomainShare

# List all domain shares available to the current user
Find-DomainShare -CheckShareAccess

# Sensitive files on domain hosts
Invoke-FileFinder -Verbose

# All fileservers on the domain
Get-NetFileServer

The below command uses the NetWkstaUserEnum and NetSessionEnum Windows APIs. The former requires admin privileges, while the latter does not:

# Active SMB sessions
Get-NetSession -ComputerName web01

For shares enumeration, PowerHuntShares can be used. It can discover shares, sensitive files, ACLs for shares, network hosts, identities, etc. and generates an HTML report:

OPSEC: Remove the DC from the servers.txt file.

# Create a list with the target hosts
Get-DomainComputer | ForEach-Object { $_.cn.Trim() } > servers.txt

# Import module
Import-Module c:\ad\tools\PowerHuntShares.psm1

# Execute script
Invoke-HuntSMBShares -NoPing -OutputDirectory c:\ad\tools -HostList c:\ad\tools\servers.txt

How to read an ACE → SecurityIdentifier has ActiveDirectoryRights on ObjectDN:

ObjectDN              : CN=Control337User,CN=Users,DC=dollarcorp,DC=moneycorp,DC=local # 3. To this

ActiveDirectoryRights : CreateChild, Self, WriteProperty, ExtendedRight, Delete, GenericRead, WriteDacl, WriteOwner # 2. Can do these things

SecurityIdentifier    : S-1-5-32-544 # 1. This

# Enumerate ACLs associated with the specified object
Get-DomainObjectAcl -samaccountname student337 -ResolveGUIDs
Get-DomainObjectAcl -Identity "Domain Admins" -ResolveGUIDs

# Enumerate ACLs associated with the specified prefix to be used for search
Get-DomainObjectAcl -SearchBase "LDAP://CN=Domain Admins,CN=Users,DC=dollarcorp,DC=moneycorp,DC=local" -ResolveGUIDs

# Search for interesting ACEs
Find-InterestingDomainAcl -ResolveGUIDs
Find-InterestingDomainAcl -ResolveGuids | ?{$_.identityreferencename -match "student337"}

# Get the ACLs associated with the specified path
Get-PathAcl -Path "\\dcorp-dc.dollarcorp.moneycorp.local\sysvol"

# Convert SID to name
Convert-SidToName <SID>

# Find user's SID
$sid = Convert-NameToSid <user>

# Search for all domain objects that the user has rights over
Get-DomainObjectACL -ResolveGUIDs -Identity * | ? ($_.SecurityIdentifier -eq $sid)

The ObjectAceType fields tells us what ACE the user has over the object:

Search for specific permissions:

# List all objects for which the current user has the specified permission (SIDs output)
Get-ObjectAcl -Identity "Management Department" | ? {$_.ActiveDirectoryRights -eq "GenericAll"} | select SecurityIdentifier, ActiveDirectoryRights

SecurityIdentifier                            ActiveDirectoryRights

In case the script cannot be used, we can use native cmdlets. To convert the GUID into a human-readable format we can either perform a reverse search or just google it:

# Make a list of all domain users
Get-ADUser -Filter * | Select-Object -ExpandProperty SamAccountName > ad_users.txt

# Retrieve ACL information about the target user
foreach($line in [System.IO.File]::ReadLines("C:\Windows\Temp\ad_users.txt")) {get-acl  "AD:\$(Get-ADUser $line)" | Select-Object Path -ExpandProperty Access | Where-Object {$_.IdentityReference -match '<DOMAIN>\\<USER>'}}

# Convert GUID into a human-readable format
$guid= "00299570-246d-11d0-a768-00aa006e0529"

# Reverse search to map the name to GUID
Get-ADObject -SearchBase "CN=Extended-Rights,$((Get-ADRootDSE).ConfigurationNamingContext)" -Filter {ObjectClass -like 'ControlAccessRight'} -Properties * |Select Name,DisplayName,DistinguishedName,rightsGuid| ?{$_.rightsGuid -eq $guid} | fl

# List domain GPOs
Get-DomainGPO | select displayname
Get-DomainGPO -Identity <host>

# GPOs which use Restricted Groups or groups.xml for interesting users
Get-DomainGPOLocalGroup

# Users which are in a local group of a host using GPO
Get-DomainGPOComputerLocalGroupMapping -ComputerIdentity <host>

# Machines where the given user is member of a specific group
Get-DomainGPOUserLocalGroupMapping -Identity user

# List domain OUs
Get-DomainOU

List the members of an OU:

# Find the gplink attribute
Get-NetOU
(Get-DomainOu -Identity DevOps).gplink
[LDAP://cn={0BF8D01C-1F62-4BDC-958C-57140B67D147},cn=policies,cn=system,DC=dollarcorp,DC=moneycorp,DC=local;0]

# Find the name corresponding to the gplink
Get-DomainGPO -Identity "{0BF8D01C-1F62-4BDC-958C-57140B67D147}"
displayname              : DevOps Policy

# List hosts members of the OU
(Get-DomainOU -Identity DevOps).distinguishedname | %{Get-DomainComputer -SearchBase $_} | select name

# Domain trusts for the current domain
Get-DomainTrust
Get-DomainTrust -Domain us.dollarcorp.moneycorp.local

# Forest details
Get-Forest
Get-Forest -Forest eurocorp.local

# All forest domains
Get-ForestDomain
Get-ForestDomain -Forest eurocorp.local

# GCs
Get-ForestGlobalCatalog

# Forest's map trusts
Get-ForestTrust

To enumerate external trusts between domains filter based on TrustAttributes:

# Enumerate domain trusts
> Get-DomainTrust -domain eurocorp.local

SourceName      : eurocorp.local
TargetName      : eu.eurocorp.local
TrustAttributes : WITHIN_FOREST

SourceName      : eurocorp.local
TargetName      : dollarcorp.moneycorp.local
TrustAttributes : FILTER_SIDS # Filter by this attribute

# Enumerate external trusts
> Get-DomainTrust | ?{$_.TrustAttributes -eq "FILTER_SIDS"}                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          SourceName      : dollarcorp.moneycorp.local                                                                                     TargetName      : eurocorp.local                                                                                                                                                                                      TrustAttributes : FILTER_SIDS

If an external trust exists, the domain can be enumerated. But remember, there is no transitivity, so other domains cannot be enumerated:

# Enumerate trusts for a trusting forest
> Get-ForestDomain -Forest eurocorp.local | %{Get-DomainTrust -Domain $_.Name}

SourceName      : eurocorp.local # Forest root
TargetName      : eu.eurocorp.local # Parent-child
TrustAttributes : WITHIN_FOREST
TrustDirection  : Bidirectional

SourceName      : eurocorp.local
TargetName      : dollarcorp.moneycorp.local # external trust
TrustAttributes : FILTER_SIDS
TrustDirection  : Bidirectional

# No transitivity
> Get-DomainTrust -Domain eu.eurocorp.local

Query for active sessions (requires admin rights):

# Active logged on users
Get-NetLoggedon -ComputerName dcorp-adminsrv

# Locally logged on users
Get-LoggedonLocal -ComputerName dcorp-adminsrv

# Last logged on user
Get-LastLoggedOn -ComputerName dcorp-adminsrv

Query for DA sessions by asking the DC for the group members of the specified group (Get-DomainGroupMember) (Domain Admins by default), getting a list of hosts (Get-DomainComputer), and listing sessions (Get-NetSession) and logged on users (Get-NetLoggedon) from each one:

OPSEC: This is noisy as it leaves a 4624 (logon), 4634 (logoff) and, in case of a hit, 4672 (success). In addition, it tries to list sessions on the DC which will create alerts on MDI. Use the ComputerName parameter to scan hosts in batches and exclude the DC from the hosts.

Listing sessions requires admin rights from Server 2019 onwards.

# Find DA session
Find-DomainUserLocation

# Find other group's sessions
Find-DomainUserLocation -UserGroupIdentity "RDPUsers"

Another way of listing sessions on remote machine is Invoke-SessionHunter. This doesn't need admin privs as it uses Remote Registry and queries the HKEY_USERS hive:

# Enumerate remote sessions
Invoke-SessionHunter -FailSafe

# Create the a list with the target hosts
Get-DomainComputer | ForEach-Object { $_.cn.Trim() } > servers.txt

# OPSEC friendly
Invoke-SessionHuner -NoPortScan -Targets servers.txt

The below function queries the DC (of the current or provided domain) for a list of hosts (Get-NetComputer) and then uses Invoke-CheckLocalAdminAccess on each using RPC/SMB ports:

OPSEC: This is noisy as it leaves a 4624 (logon), 4634 (logoff) and, in case of a hit, 4672 (success). Use the ComputerName parameter to scan hosts in batches.

Find-LocalAdminAccess

This command uses the OpenServiceW function to interact with the Service Control Manager (SCM) on a target machine. The SCM manages installed services and drivers. PowerView tries to connect to it with SC_MANAGER_ALL_ACCESS permissions, which require administrative rights. If it succeeds, it infers that the current user has administrator privileges on that machine.

In case ports used by Find-LocalAdminAccess are blocked try:

Find-WMILocalAdminAccess.ps1
Find-PSRemotingLocalAdminAccess.ps1
