The key finding is that AD CS, if not properly configured and secured, presents multiple vulnerabilities that can be exploited for domain escalation, persistence, and certificate theft. Attackers can leverage weak permissions, misconfigurations, and specific service vulnerabilities to gain and maintain unauthorized access, emphasizing the need for stringent security measures, regular audits, and adherence to …
Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) is a crucial component of enterprise security infrastructure, providing services for public key cryptography. However, misconfigurations and vulnerabilities within AD CS can be exploited for domain escalation, persistence, and certificate theft. These exploits leverage weaknesses in certificate templates, enrollment services, access control lists (ACLs), and other AD CS components. …
