PRINTNIGHTMARE NETWORK ANALYSIS

By Dray Agha The infosec community has been busy dissecting the PrintNightmare exploit. There are now variations of the exploit that can have various impacts on a target machine. When we at JUMPSEC saw that Lares had captured some network traffic of the PrintNightmare exploit in action, I wondered if there was an opportunity to gather network-level IoCs and processes that could offer defenders unique but consistent methods of detection across the various exploits.

Securing against new offensive techniques abusing active directory certificate service

SpecterOps recently released an offensive security research paper that details techniques enabling an adversary to abuse insecure functionality in Active Directory Certificate Service. SpecterOps reports that abusing the legitimate functionality of Active Directory Certificate Service will allow an adversary to forge the elements of a certificate to authenticate as any user or administrator in Active Directory. JUMPSEC has highlighted numerous changes that can be made to Active Directory Certificate Service configuration to protect the domain through a defence-in-depth approach.

This has a number of potential use cases, but I found it particularly useful to re-implement client-side functions that prevented the active scanner from identifying vulnerabilities it would normally detect. The extension is quite simple to use but has a somewhat steep learning curve, so I have shared some of my processes, findings and code samples which may be useful for others in similar situations.
