Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.
You have domain creds and BloodHound shows your principal (or one you control) has a dangerous ACL edge over another object — a user, group, computer, GPO, or the domain. These edges chain into a path to Domain Admin without any CVE.
AD access control is a web of object permissions. Over-permissive ACLs let you modify other principals: reset a password, add yourself to a privileged group, take ownership then rewrite the DACL, or grant yourself DCSync — each turning a small right into control.

dump all hashes incl. krbtgt (→ golden ticket).Control of the target principal (password/hash/TGT), membership in a privileged group, or a hash dump via DCSync — advancing the path toward DA.

These edges chain into a path to Domain Admin without any CVE. ## Why it works AD access control is a web of object permissions. Over-permissive ACLs let you *modify* other principals: reset a password, add yourself to a privileged group, take ownership then rewrite the DACL, or grant yourself DCSync — each turning a small right into control. ## Method — abuse per edge (BloodHound names the edge; it also shows the command) 1. **ForceChangePassword** over a user → reset their password: `net rpc password` / `bloodyAD set password`. 2. **GenericWrite / GenericAll over a user** → set an SPN and Kerberoast, or set `msDS-KeyCredentialLink` (shadow credentials, `certipy shadow`/`pywhisker`) → auth as them. 3. **AddMember / GenericAll over a group** → add yourself to it (e.g. a privileged group): `net group ... /add`. 4. **WriteDACL / WriteOwner over an object** → take ownership, grant yourself GenericAll, then abuse as above. 5. **DCSync rights** (GetChanges/GetChangesAll on the domain) → `impacket-secretsdump -just-dc` to dump all hashes incl. krbtgt (→ golden ticket). 6. **GPO edit rights** → push a scheduled task/immediate task to hosts the GPO applies to → RCE. ## Gotchas - Let BloodHound plan the *path* — abuse edges in order; each step unlocks the next. - Shadow credentials (KeyCredentialLink) need a 2016+ DC with PKINIT — often cleaner than a password reset (less noisy, reversible). - Clean up: remove added group memberships / added creds after proving impact. ## Verify success Control of the target principal (password/hash/TGT), membership in a privileged group, or a hash dump via DCSync — advancing the path toward DA. ## References SpecterOps BloodHound docs (edge abuse); harmj0y "ACL attacks"; impacket/bloodyAD.
