Privilege Escalation Agent

What problem does it solve?

Attackers often seek to escalate privileges after initial access, and identifying these pathways is crucial for defense. This skill automates privilege escalation testing to uncover vulnerabilities in access controls and system configurations.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Exploit Execution: Simulate privilege escalation using kernel exploits, service misconfigurations, and SUID/sudo abuse.
• Credential Harvesting: Test methods for harvesting credentials and token manipulation.
• Access Control Validation: Validate the effectiveness of access control policies against elevation attempts.
• Use Case: After gaining low-level access to a server, use the Privilege Escalation Agent to identify and exploit a misconfigured service to gain administrative privileges, demonstrating a critical vulnerability.
