SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you understand and bypass the complex security boundaries within Windows, enabling effective privilege escalation and sandbox escape.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mitigation Fingerprinting: Identify active security features like VBS, HVCI, DEP, ASLR, CFG, and CET.
  • Bypass Techniques: Learn methods to circumvent AMSI, PPL, AppContainers, WDAC, ASR, and ETW telemetry.
  • Use Case: When planning a red team engagement, use this Skill to quickly assess the target's security posture and identify the most viable paths for privilege escalation or lateral movement.

Quick Start

Analyze the current system for active Windows security mitigations and potential bypass vectors.

FAQPage Schema
How do I identify active Windows security mitigations before attempting privilege escalation?

You can perform mitigation fingerprinting to identify active Windows security features like VBS, HVCI, DEP, ASLR, CFG, and CET, which helps determine the most viable paths for privilege escalation during offensive reconnaissance.

What is the best way to bypass AMSI and ETW telemetry on Windows?

To bypass AMSI and ETW telemetry, you need to apply specific circumvent techniques that manipulate ETW and circumvent AMSI, effectively blinding endpoint detection systems during red team engagements.

How does sandbox escape work against Windows AppContainers and Protected Process Light?

Sandbox escape against Windows AppContainers and Protected Process Light (PPL) involves exploiting boundary vulnerabilities to break out of restricted environments, enabling lateral movement and elevated execution.

Do I need to understand Windows internals to use this bypass methodology?

Yes, understanding Windows internals and exploit development concepts is required to effectively apply this methodology for defeating kernel/user, COM/RPC, and hypervisor security boundaries.

Can I use this approach to bypass WDAC and ASR enforcement policies?

Yes, this methodology provides specific techniques to bypass Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) and Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) policies, allowing you to circumvent application whitelisting and behavioral restrictions.

Why should I assess hypervisor boundaries during a red team engagement?

Assessing hypervisor boundaries is crucial because defeating them allows you to understand the complete security posture of the target, identifying whether virtualization-based security (VBS) can be bypassed for deeper system compromise.
