Windows Privilege Escalation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a systematic approach to discover and exploit vulnerabilities that allow a user to gain elevated privileges (Administrator or SYSTEM) on a Windows system.

Core Features & Use Cases

• System Enumeration: Gathers detailed information about the Windows environment, users, groups, network, and services.
• Credential Harvesting: Identifies and extracts sensitive information like passwords, hashes, and tokens from various sources.
• Exploitation Techniques: Covers exploiting misconfigured services, unquoted paths, AlwaysInstallElevated, token impersonation, and kernel vulnerabilities.
• Use Case: During a penetration test, after gaining initial access as a standard user, this Skill can be used to find a path to Administrator privileges to access sensitive system configurations or data.
