About this episode
How do you find insecure permissions in Active Directory before they turn into attack paths?In this episode, we take a practical look at how to identify insecure Active Directory permissions using ADeleg, a free security tool trusted by penetration testers.Misconfigured delegation and overly permissive access rights are a common source of risk in Active Directory environments. These gaps can create hidden attack paths—but many teams don’t know where to look or how to interpret what they’re seeing.In this episode, we cover:How to identify insecure permissions in Active DirectoryWhat to look for in high-risk users and groups like Domain Users, Everyone, and Authenticated UsersHow these misconfigurations translate into real-world attack pathsHow to use ADeleg to analyze delegated permissions and uncover hidden riskWe also include a reference to ADeleginator, a related tool that can help automate parts of this process using PowerShell. While this episode focuses on hands-on analysis with ADeleg, ADeleginator is a useful companion for scaling this work.Tools referenced:ADeleg: https://github.com/mtth-bfft/adelegBlog: https://offsec.blog/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@cyberthreatpovTwitter: https://x.com/cyberthreatpovFollow Spencer on social ⬇Spencer's Links: https://spenceralessi.comWork with Us: https://securit360.com | Find vulnerabilities that matter, learn about how we do internal pentesting here.
