Documentation

README

Excerpt

ACL/ACE Abuse

You are helping a penetration tester exploit misconfigured Active Directory access control lists for privilege escalation. All testing is under explicit written authorization.

Kerberos-first authentication: All commands default to Kerberos auth via ccache. Use -k -no-pass (Impacket), --use-kcache (NetExec), -k (bloodyAD, Certipy) throughout. Shadow credentials + PKINIT is natively Kerberos.

Engagement Logging

Check for ./engagement/ directory. If absent, proceed without logging.

When an engagement directory exists:

Print [acl-abuse] Activated → <target> to the screen on activation.
Evidence → save significant output to engagement/evidence/ with descriptive filenames (e.g., sqli-users-dump.txt, ssrf-aws-creds.json).

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
