Escalation - Getting Privs as Guest


kickarse

Recommended Posts

We'd need some interest for this thread first.

This thing does have big potential. I mean, hack an XP box remotely so you get a shell. Download some shitty server proggy that will do your bidding, and use the 'at' command to schedule it's starting in the next minute.

BOOM! Instant god-mode in XP.

If this truly is that simple (i.e. try it as guest first. Then we'll talk) this is a huge snafu for Microsoft. But don't worry, Trusted Computing is still on track. ;)

DONT cloe the cmd your account opens, cos then you can kill the explorer the system account makes :P and then reopen YOUR explorer in your cmd window

tried it as a guest account and with a default setup Guest does not have access to the "at" command now a default setup nor does it work with a limited user account with defautl setup on an XP Pro machine. :lol:

Yeah I already explained that it doesn't work as guest or normal user accounts. As admin your golden, but it still gives you access to kernel so it's still highly useful as admin.

We might have to find some other ways of escalation to at least admin, then this would rock.

I'd be interested to know if this works. I know that the "at xx:yy /interactive ...." trick doesn't work on a fully patched XP Pro SP2 when logged on with limited rights.

There *must* be a way of doing it, it just hasn't been found yet! I know that access to files can be obtained using Knoppix, BartsPE etc., but that seems like cheating.

Yeah, it's not as fun when you have a boot disk to pop in when your compromising at Best Buy ... err...

The best thing is even as Guest that you can escalate priv's... with some a simple command line hack.

I thought that was how this thread started and the technique presented has been kicked into touch for a fully patched XP Pro SP2. Use of MSOOBE.exe sounds interesting.
