To get a valid session token to use with Burp Suite tools, I ended up writing a small Python extension (110 lines of code, but who’s counting?) that obtained a new session token for each request, allowing items like Intruder to work as intended. Cool, I was able to use it during the test, but I would like this to be repeatable. So, this blog is releasing Swapper, a regex pattern-based match/replace Burp Suite extension.

In Active Directory exploitation, Kerberos delegation is easily among my top favorite vectors of abuse, and in the years I’ve been learning Kerberos exploitation, I’ve noticed that Impacket doesn’t get nearly as much coverage as tools like Rubeus or Mimikatz.

The Microsoft Store provides a convenient mechanism to install software without needing administrator permissions. The feature is convenient for non-corporate and home users but is unlikely to be acceptable in corporate environments. This is because attackers and malicious employees can use the Microsoft Store to install software that might violate organizational policy.

One tool that I can't live without when performing a penetration test in an Active Directory environment is called NetExec. Being able to efficiently authenticate against multiple systems in the network is crucial, and NetExec is an incredibly powerful tool that helps automate a lot of this activity.
