What Credential Dumping does

Credential Dumping extracts secrets from Active Directory and related stores such as DCSync, NTDS.dit, SAM, LAPS, gMSA, ADSync, DSRM, and EFS-encrypted files. Use it during authorized penetration tests when you need hashes, passwords, or directory recovery credentials.

Credential Dumping is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Credential Dumping comes from a repository tagged claude, claude-code, ctf, offensive-security and penetration-testing.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Credential Dumping

You are helping a penetration tester extract credentials from Active Directory stores including domain databases, local machine hives, Azure AD Connect sync databases, managed service accounts, and directory recovery secrets. All testing is under explicit written authorization.

Kerberos-first authentication: All remote credential extraction commands use Kerberos authentication (-k -no-pass, --use-kcache) to avoid NTLM detection signatures. Exception: local filesystem operations (SAM/NTDS extraction from hives) where Kerberos auth does not apply.

Engagement Logging

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