Domain Escalation: Unconstrained Delegation
π₯ Telegram: https://t.me/hackinarticles
β΄οΈ Twitter: https://x.com/hackinarticles
Unconstrained Delegation allows systems to impersonate users across the domain, making it a critical misconfiguration that can lead to full domain compromise.
β‘οΈ Attack Highlights
π― Identify systems with unconstrained delegation
π Capture user TGT from memory
π Request service tickets (TGS) using stolen TGT
π Access any resource as the impersonated user
π‘ When enabled, the server stores user TGTs in memory, allowing attackers to reuse them and move laterally across the domain.
