WireSocks for Easy Proxied Routing
I built some infrastructure that you could deploy and use to easily tunnel from arbitrary sources over a proxy such as SOCKS, using anything that can run WireGuard. This is convenient in cases where it would be nicer to have a full network route to a target network (with working DNS) vs just having application specific proxy rules. In this post I’ll elaborate a bit on that idea. If you are just looking for the code you can find it here: https://github.com/sensepost/wiresocks.
Come do Wi-Fi!
Wi-Fi is everywhere and having a better understanding of it can fair you well! Over the years we have made various tools such as hostapd-mana to enable attacks against Wi-Fi, and then tools such as berate_ap for those people who don’t want to, or have to, learn how to use hostapd-mana. In our Unplugged: Modern Wi-Fi Hacking course you will be forced to shun the convenience of automated tools such as berate_ap and get dirty with setting up Access Points and Client configurations in a terminal window to ensure you have a good understanding of what is happening under the hood.
thumbscr-ews – a python EWS tool
Something I have found myself doing more and more often is using Exchange Web Services (EWS) to bypass 2FA. I do this so that I could look through mail for accounts I have compromised. The 2FA bypass is due to a common misconfiguration which can leave EWS unprotected, and has been known about for ages, mostly from the Black Hills post in 2016. However, most of the tooling appears to be written in PowerShell, and being the lazy person I am I prefer not to start up a Windows VM when I want to see if I can access a persons email. Hence I started just using a small script around the amazing exchangelib where I would just retrieve the top 10 emails using the example provided in the help documentation. I was doing this often enough that I decided to make a more useful tool.
Pass-the-hash WiFi
Thanks to a tweet Dominic responded to, I saw someone mention Passing-the-hash when I think they actually meant relay. The terminology can be confusing for sure, however, it made me realise that I had never Passed-the-hash with a Wi-Fi network.
So having learnt my lesson from previous projects I first made sure this was possible for NT -> MSCHAP by looking at the RFC.
8.1. GenerateNTResponse() GenerateNTResponse( IN 16-octet AuthenticatorChallenge, IN 16-octet PeerChallenge, IN 0-to-256-char UserName, IN 0-to-256-unicode-char Password, OUT 24-octet Response ) { 8-octet Challenge 16-octet PasswordHash ChallengeHash( PeerChallenge, AuthenticatorChallenge, UserName, giving Challenge) NtPasswordHash( Password, giving PasswordHash ) ChallengeResponse( Challenge, PasswordHash, giving Response ) } Looks like you can! As you can see in the above, the ChallengeResponse is created using the NT hash and not the password. I then checked wpa_supplicant to see if this was not a feature already, and it turns out it is! Looking at the wpa_supplicant configuration file it says:
PEAP Relay Attacks with wpa_sycophant
Back in 2018, I was interested that MSCHAPv2 and NTLMv1 hashes crack using the same algorithms, and wanting to get onto the WiFi of one of our clients, I naively thought “Surely if you can relay NTLMv1 and it uses the same crypto as MSCHAPv2, you should be able to relay MSCHAPv2!”. The resulted in the creation of wpa_sycophant (and its helper berate_ap) to perform PEAP relay attacks. It was presented in our Defcon talk last year from about 17m in.
