  • ATTACKING RDP How to Eavesdrop on Poorly Secured RDP Connections
    IT SECURITY KNOW-HOW Adrian Vollmer ATTACKING RDP How to Eavesdrop on Poorly Secured RDP Connections March 2017 © SySS GmbH, March 2017 Wohlboldstraße 8, 72072 Tübingen, Germany +49 (0)7071 - 40 78 56-0 [email protected] www.syss.de Vollmer | Attacking RDP 1 Introduction The Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is used by system administrators everyday to log onto remote Windows machines. Perhaps most commonly, it is used to perform administrative tasks on critical servers such as the domain controller with highly privileged accounts, whose credentials are transmitted via RDP. It is thus vital to use a secure RDP configuration. We at SySS regularly observe that due to misconfigurations, system administrators in an Active Directory environment are routinely presented with (and ignore) certificate warnings like this: Figure 1: An SSL certificate warning If warnings like these are a common occurrence in your environment, you will not be able to recognize a real man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack. This article was written to raise awareness of how important it is to take certificate warnings seriously and how to securely configure your Windows landscape. The intended audience is system administrators, penetration testers and security enthusiasts. While not necessary, it is recommended that you have a firm understanding of the following subjects: – Public key cryptography as well as symmetric cryptography (RSA and RC4) – SSL – x509 certificates – TCP 2 Vollmer | Attacking RDP – Python – Hexadecimal numbers and binary code We will demonstrate how a MitM can sniff your credentials if you aren’t careful. None of this is particularly new – it even has been done before, for example by Cain [2].

    Tapani Havia Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Centrally Managed Basic Services for Microsoft Windows 8 Clients Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Engineering Information Technology Bachelor’s Thesis 14th May 2013 PREFACE This Bachelor’s Thesis is the outcome of my professional knowledge of the Microsoft Windows Server 2012 centrally managed basic services. I wish to thank my instructors Kari Järvi and Jonita Martelius for their invaluable help and support while writing the study. Last but not least I wish to thank my wife Mia Havia for her endless patience while writing the study. Espoo, May 14, 2013 Tapani Havia Abstract Author(s) Tapani Havia Title Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Number of Pages 153 pages + 10 appendices Date 14th May 2013 Degree Bachelor of Engineering Degree Program Information Technology Specialization option Data Networks Instructor(s) Kari Järvi, Principal Lecturer Microsoft published the latest operating system versions; Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 last autumn. It was the correct time to create a test environment and test how basic services and their centralized remote management could be done nowadays. The purpose was to come up with as versatile an environment as possible which any person interested in the topic could do and continue to the desired direction. The initial plan was to create the test environment in one computer virtually. The environment was done with redundancy of basic services without Network Load Balancing or Failover Clustering features. Finally, the environment within the framework of the study included 11 virtual servers and three virtual workstations. For the host computer’s operating system was chosen the Windows Server 2012 Datacenter edition and the needed hypervisor software was chosen between Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware Workstation 9, the environment was done with VMware.
