Check out the new and improved windapsearch - rewritten in Go with some new features (including JSON support)!

https://github.com/ropnop/go-windapsearch

windapsearch

windapsearch is a Python script to help enumerate users, groups and computers from a Windows domain through LDAP queries. By default, Windows Domain Controllers support basic LDAP operations through port 389/tcp. With any valid domain account (regardless of privileges), it is possible to perform LDAP queries against a domain controller for any AD related information.

You can always use a tool like ldapsearch to perform custom LDAP queries against a Domain Controller. I found myself running different LDAP commands over and over again, and it was difficult to memorize all the custom LDAP queries. So this tool was born to help automate some of the most useful LDAP queries a pentester would want to perform in an AD environment.

Requirements

windapsearch requires the python-ldap module. You should be able to get up and running with two commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/ropnop/windapsearch.git
$ pip install python-ldap #or apt-get install python-ldap
$ ./windapsearch.py

The latest version is designed to be used with Python 3, but if you are stuck with Python 2, you can use the windapsearch_py2.py script.

Usage

$ python windapsearch.py -h
usage: windapsearch.py [-h] [-d DOMAIN] [--dc-ip DC_IP] [-u USER]
                       [-p PASSWORD] [--functionality] [-G] [-U] [-C]
                       [-m GROUP_NAME] [--da] [--admin-objects] [--user-spns]
                       [--unconstrained-users] [--unconstrained-computers]
                       [--gpos] [-s SEARCH_TERM] [-l DN]
                       [--custom CUSTOM_FILTER] [-r] [--attrs ATTRS] [--full]
                       [-o output_dir]

  -G, --groups          Enumerate all AD Groups
  -U, --users           Enumerate all AD Users

  -s SEARCH_TERM, --search SEARCH_TERM
                        Fuzzy search for all matching LDAP entries
  -l DN, --lookup DN    Search through LDAP and lookup entry. Works with fuzzy
                        search. Defaults to printing all attributes, but
                        honors '--attrs'
  --custom CUSTOM_FILTER
                        Perform a search with a custom object filter. Must be
                        valid LDAP filter syntax

Output Options:
  Display and output options for results

  -r, --resolve         Resolve IP addresses for enumerated computer names.
                        Will make DNS queries against system NS
  --attrs ATTRS         Comma separated custom atrribute names to search for
                        (e.g. 'badPwdCount,lastLogon')
  --full                Dump all atrributes from LDAP.
  -o output_dir, --output output_dir
                        Save results to TSV files in <OUTPUT_DIR>

Specifying Domain and Account

To begin you need to specify a Domain Controller to connect to with --dc-ip, or a domain with -d. If no Domain Controller IP address is specified, the script will attempt to do a DNS host lookup on the domain and take the top result.

A valid domain username and password are required for most lookups. If none are specififed the script will attempt an anonymous bind and enumerate the default namingContext, but most additional queries will fail. The username needs to include the full domain, e.g. [email protected] or EXAMPLE\ropnop

The password can be specified on the command line with -p or if left out it will be prompted for.

Enumerate Users

The -U option performs an LDAP search for all entries where objectCategory=user. By default, it will only display the commonName and the userPrincipalName. The --attrs option can be used to specify custom or additional attributes to display, or the --full option will display everythin for all users.

WARNING: in a large domain this can get very big, very fast

Example:

$  ./windapsearch.py -d lab.ropnop.com -u ropnop\\ldapbind -p GoCubs16 -U

[+] Enumerating all AD users
[+]     Found 2754 users:

userPrincipalName: [email protected]

<snipped...>

To save the results to a tab-separated file, use the -o option and specify a directory.

Enumerate Groups and Group Memberships

Use the -G option to enumerate all entries where objectCategory=group. This will output the DN and CN of all groups.

To query group membership, use the -m option with either the DN or CN of the group you wish to query. The tool supports fuzzy search matching so even a partial CN will work. If it matches more than one group, the tool will specify which group to query.

$ ./windapsearch.py -d lab.ropnop.com -u ropnop\\ldapbind -p GoCubs16 -m IT

Domain Admins

You can enumerate Domain Admins through two methods. One is to use -m with "Domain Admins". This will query LDAP for the "Domain Admins" entry and display all the members.

The more thorough way is to do a lookup of all users and determine if they or a group they belong to are part of "Domain Admins". This has the added benefit of discovering users who have inherited DA rights through nested group memberships. It's much slower, however. See this link for more details on the technique used: https://labs.mwrinfosecurity.com/blog/active-directory-users-in-nested-groups-reconnaissance/ To do a recursive lookup for Domain Admins, you can use the "--da" option.

Example:

root@kali:~/windapsearch# ./windapsearch.py -d lab.ropnop.com -u ropnop\\ldapbind -p GoCubs16 --da
[+] No DC IP provided. Will try to discover via DNS lookup.
[+] Using Domain Controller at: 172.16.13.10

cn: Administrator

cn: Andy Green
userPrincipalName: [email protected]

cn: Natasha Strong
userPrincipalName: [email protected]

cn: Linda Alton
userPrincipalName: [email protected]

Enumerating Computers

LDAP queries can be used to enumerate domain joined computers. This is very useful when trying to build a list of targets without running a portscan or ping sweep.

Use the -C option to list all matching entries where objectClass=Computer. By default, the attributes displayed are 'cn', 'dNSHostName', 'operatingSystem', 'operatingSystemVersion', and 'operatingSystemServicePack'

If you specify the -r or --resolve option, the tool will perform a DNS lookup on every enumerated dNSHostName found and output the computer information, including IP address in CSV format. This can then be fed to other tools like nmap or CrackMapExec.

Example:

$ ./windapsearch.py -d lab.ropnop.com -u ropnop\\ldapbind -p GoCubs16 -C -r
[+] No DC IP provided. Will try to discover via DNS lookup.
[+] Using Domain Controller at: 172.16.13.10

Custom Searching

The tool allows for custom, fuzzy matching. You can perform a search and see results (DNs) with the -s option:

$ ./windapsearch.py -d lab.ropnop.com -u ropnop\\ldapbind -p GoCubs16 -s albert
[+] No DC IP provided. Will try to discover via DNS lookup.

To query the DN and display the attributes, use the lookup option, -l. You can provide this with a full DN, or a search term. If the search matches more than one DN, the tool will prompt you for which to use:

$ ./windapsearch.py -d lab.ropnop.com -u ropnop\\ldapbind -p GoCubs16 -l albert --attrs telephoneNumber
[+] No DC IP provided. Will try to discover via DNS lookup.

and their tool to perform offline querying of LDAP: https://labs.mwrinfosecurity.com/blog/offline-querying-of-active-directory/

also, after I wrote the majority of this tool I discovered a very similar project here: https://github.com/CroweCybersecurity/ad-ldap-enum Definitely check that tool out too! I sniped some of the code to get paging working with my tool anyway :)
