windows-ad
Empowers your agent to research and test attacks in Active Directory and Windows environments.
What it does
This tool helps research and test attacks on Windows and Active Directory networks. It focuses on how to gain access and privileges within corporate systems.
When to use it
- ✓When conducting authorized security tests on corporate networks.
- ✓When researching how attackers might gain control of an Active Directory domain.
- ✓When studying methods to escalate privileges within a Windows environment.
Example of what to ask your AI
“I want to research Active Directory attack paths using BloodHound and test Kerberoasting.”

Windows / Active Directory Security
ACTION REQUIRED(读完后立刻执行)
NOW: 读取../field-journal/precedent-pentest.mdNOW: 域/AD 测试必须明确授权范围(含 DC、是否允许投毒/中继)NOW: case-init;network_profile 与禁止动作写清NEXT: tool-index(impacket/certipy/bloodhound 等常手动)ACT: 从身份枚举与 BloodHound 图开始,不先上破坏性利用
适用场景
- 域渗透、Kerberoasting、AS-REP、委派
- AD CS(ESC1–ESC8 等)证书攻击
- BloodHound / SharpHound 攻击路径
- NTLM Relay / Coercer 强制认证
- 本地提权到域路径(Potato 等作为跳板)
与 attack-chain 关系
- 多阶段从外网到域控 → PRIMARY 可仍是
attack-chain/,本 skill 为 AD 专科 - 已在域内专注身份 → PRIMARY = 本 skill
工作流
1. 枚举
# 示例 Impacket / 内置(需凭据与授权)
nxc smb <range> -u user -p pass
bloodhound-python -d domain.local -u user -p pass -c All -ns <DC>
2. 常见路径(先图后枪)
□ Kerberoast / AS-REP → 离线破解
□ ACL 滥用(GenericAll/WriteDacl)
□ 委派(非约束/约束/基于资源)
□ AD CS 模板错误 → Certipy
□ 中继:LLMNR/NBT-NS + ntlmrelayx(确认授权)
3. 凭证与横向
□ secretsdump / lsassy / mimikatz(严格授权与清理)
□ PtH / PtT / 黄金票仅在授权红队范围
□ 每步写 Evidence;高危等用户确认
工具链
| 工具 | 用途 |
|---|---|
| BloodHound / SharpHound | 路径图 |
| Certipy | AD CS |
| Impacket / NetExec | 横向与枚举 |
| Rubeus / Mimikatz | 票据与凭证(授权) |
| Coercer / Responder | 强制认证 / 投毒 |
