A single misconfigured SeDebugPrivilege assignment on a Windows Domain Controller lets a standard domain user escalate to SYSTEM or Domain Administrator through multiple paths, including LSASS dumping, token duplication, and process migration. The article demonstrates how tools like ProcDump, pypykatz, Meterpreter, and SeDebugPrivesc can turn that one delegated right into full domain compromise, while highlighting mitigations such as LSA Protection and Credential Guard. #SeDebugPrivilege #LSASS #ProcDump #pypykatz #Meterpreter #winlogon #SeDebugPrivesc #EvilWinRM #ignite.local
Keypoints
- SeDebugPrivilege grants near-administrative control over processes on a Windows host.
- A standard domain user named raaj was assigned Debug programs through Group Policy.
- ProcDump and pypykatz were used to dump LSASS and recover the Domain Administrator hash.
- Meterpreter migration into winlogon.exe produced a live SYSTEM shell on the Domain Controller.
- SeDebugPrivesc spawned SYSTEM command shells and reverse shells via token duplication.
