T1003.006 - DCSync

Description from ATT&CK

Adversaries may attempt to access credentials and other sensitive information by abusing a Windows Domain Controller's application programming interface (API)(Citation: Microsoft DRSR Dec 2017) (Citation: Microsoft GetNCCChanges) (Citation: Samba DRSUAPI) (Citation: Wine API samlib.dll) to simulate the replication process from a remote domain controller using a technique called DCSync.

Members of the Administrators, Domain Admins, and Enterprise Admin groups or computer accounts on the domain controller are able to run DCSync to pull password data(Citation: ADSecurity Mimikatz DCSync) from Active Directory, which may include current and historical hashes of potentially useful accounts such as KRBTGT and Administrators. The hashes can then in turn be used to create a Golden Ticket for use in Pass the Ticket(Citation: Harmj0y Mimikatz and DCSync) or change an account's password as noted in Account Manipulation.(Citation: InsiderThreat ChangeNTLM July 2017)

DCSync functionality has been included in the "lsadump" module in Mimikatz.(Citation: GitHub Mimikatz lsadump Module) Lsadump also includes NetSync, which performs DCSync over a legacy replication protocol.(Citation: Microsoft NRPC Dec 2017)

Atomic Tests


Atomic Test #1 - DCSync

Attack allowing retrieval of account information without accessing memory or retrieving the NTDS database. Works against a remote Windows Domain Controller using the replication protocol. Privileges required: domain admin or domain controller account (by default), or any other account with required rights. Reference

Supported Platforms: Windows

Inputs:

Name Description Type Default Value
domain Targeted domain string example.com
user Targeted user string krbtgt
mimikatz_path Mimikatz windows executable path %tmp%\mimikatz\x64\mimikatz.exe

Attack Commands: Run with command_prompt!

#{mimikatz_path} "lsadump::dcsync /domain:#{domain} /user:#{user}@#{domain}" "exit"

Dependencies: Run with powershell!

Description: Mimikatz executor must exist on disk and at specified location (#{mimikatz_path})
Check Prereq Commands:
$mimikatz_path = cmd /c echo #{mimikatz_path}
