The ability to write to the “msds-KeyCredentialLink” property on a user or computer. Writing to this property allows an attacker to create “Shadow Credentials” on the object and authenticate as the principal using kerberos PKINIT.
Abuse Info
To abuse this privilege, use Whisker:
Whisker.exe add /target:<TargetPrincipal>
For other optional parameters, view the Whisker documentation.
Opsec Considerations
Executing the attack will generate a 5136 (A directory object was modified) event at the domain controller if an appropriate SACL is in place on the target object.
If PKINIT is not common in the environment, a 4768 (Kerberos authentication ticket (TGT) was requested) ticket can also expose the attacker.
