Pwnlook is an offensive postexploitation tool that will give you complete control over the Outlook desktop application and therefore to the emails configured in it. What it does:
It’s possible to do almost everything that Outlook can do: send emails, create forward rules, list contacts… But all this is out of the scope of this project. At the end of the this README
you will find some detection techniques.
Pwnlook is written in .NET 4.8.1
To compile it you need first to register both DLLs. This is only for compilation, there is no need to register the DLL where you execute it:
regsvr32.exe .\Redemption.dll
regsvr32.exe .\Redemption64.dll
You can unregister them later:
regsvr32.exe -u .\Redemption.dll
regsvr32.exe -u .\Redemption64.dll
Open the .sln
with Visual Studio and compile it.
Then use ILMerge to create a single binary:
.\ILMerge.exe /target:pwnlook481.exe /out:pwnlook.exe pwnlook481.exe Newtonsoft.Json.dll
pwnlook
communicates with Outlook via COM. By using the Redemption library it can gather all kind of information without triggering any alert to the user, even if you read an unread email the email will keep as unread for the user.
The tool comes with some limitations that are related with the, most likely, possibility of dealing with very big OST files. Thats why, for example, I didn’t implement an option to “list all emails”.
The Redemption64.dll
must be in the same path as the pwnlook.exe
. There is no need to register the DLL (Registry free COM) so you can run it on behalf of any user, even if it isn’t Local Admin.
