"Checking for Symantec Account Connectivity Credentials (ACCs) with PrivescCheck"

This blog post is not so much about PrivescCheck, but rather brings additional insight to the original article published by MDSec on the subject.

🆕 New blog post! It's a rather short one, nothing crazy. Just wanted to share a random finding I made recently. 🤷‍♂️

Another example of a Windows 0-day found with PrivescCheck. Congrats to Compass Security for investigating the issue and exploiting it. 👏

You're absolutely right! 😬
Thanks for your message. I'll do that. 🙂
This whole DLL thing is essentially a dirty hack anyway.

Screenshot showing the execution of the proof-of-concept named PowerChell in comparison to a typical PowerShell prompt. In particular, it shows that PowerChell is able to bypass the Constrained Language Mode (CLM).

In this blog post, I explain how I was able to create a PowerShell console in C/C++, and disable all its security features (AMSI, logging, transcription, execution policy, CLM) in doing so. 💪

Process Hollowing on Windows 11 24H2 Process Hollowing (a.k.a. RunPE) is probably the oldest, and the most popular process impersonation technique (it allows to run a malicious executable under the cover of a benign process). It is us…

Really great blog post about bypassing BitLocker using "PXE soft reboot" (even if PXE boot is disabled in the BIOS).

Diagram representing the various Windows Point and Print configurations that reintroduce the PrintNightmare exploit variants.

I updated the diagram representing the different Point and Print configurations and their exploitation on my blog.

Hopefully, this should provide a better understanding of the whole "PrintNightmare" situation to both defenders and red teamers. 🤞

Interestingly enough, MS disabled the "Use my Windows user account" checkbox when connecting to Wi-Fi on the lock screen to address CVE-2024-38143 in the August Patch Tuesday.

This change completely remediates the "Airstrike" attack as well. 🤯

Thanks!
Yes, I already thought about doing something like this, and I already took a look at cross-references to find the offset of the object. I didn't take the time to check older versions though, there might be some diffs to take into consideration. There is clearly more to work on. :)

🆕​ New PrivescCheck extended check!

ℹ️​ The script can now enumerate dangerous default file extension associations, such as '.bat' or '.wsh'.

⚠️​ A manual review of the result is always recommended, but for the most part, it should be fine.
