SharpSCCM

Presented at DEF CON 30 (2022), Aug. 13, 2022, noon (115 minutes)

SharpSCCM is a post-exploitation tool designed to leverage Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (a.k.a. ConfigMgr, formerly SCCM) for lateral movement from a C2 agent without requiring access to the SCCM administration console. SharpSCCM supports lateral movement functions ported from PowerSCCM and contains additional functionality to abuse newly discovered attack primitives for coercing NTLM authentication from local administrator and SCCM site server machine accounts in environments where automatic client push installation is enabled. SharpSCCM can also dump information about the SCCM environment from a client, including domain credentials for Network Access Accounts. Further, with access to an SCCM administrator account, operators of SharpSCCM can execute code as SYSTEM or coerce NTLM authentication from the currently logged-in user or the machine account on any SCCM client.

Audience: Offense, Defense, System Administrators
