# AuthFinder

A tool for executing commands across Windows (and Linux) systems using various remote execution methods. Automatically tries multiple techniques until one succeeds, based on return codes and output. Makes executing commands given credentials a hell of a lot easier.

Big thanks to NetExec, Impacket, and Evil-Winrm, as this tool just essentially acts as a wrapper around those (making it more of a script, I suppose).

## Features

- **Multiple RCE Methods**: Automatically tries various Windows remote execution techniques:
  - WinRM (HTTP/HTTPS)
  - PSExec (Impacket)
  - SMBExec (NetExec)
  - WMI (NetExec)
  - AtExec (Impacket)
  - RDP (NetExec)
  - SSH (NetExec)
  - MSSQL (Impacket)
- **Multi-threaded**: Execute commands across multiple hosts simultaneously
- **Pass-the-Hash**: Use `-H` to pass an NTLM hash
- **Linux Support**: Use `--linux` to attempt to run commands across linux machines instead, via SSH

## Installation

```bash
pipx install authfinder
```

### External Dependencies

This tool requires the following external tools to be installed:

```bash
# Impacket (for PSExec, AtExec, MSSQL)
pipx install impacket

# NetExec (for SMBExec, WMI, RDP, SSH)
pipx install git+https://github.com/Pennyw0rth/NetExec

# Evil-WinRM (for WinRM)
gem install evil-winrm
```

## Usage

### Basic Usage

```bash
# Execute command on single host
authfinder 192.168.1.10 -u administrator -p Password123 -c whoami

# Execute across IP range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.50
authfinder 192.168.1.1-50 -u admin -p Pass123 -c 'net user'

# Use nthash instead of password
authfinder 10.0.0.1-10 -u admin -H :{32-bit-hash} -c whoami

# Pass list of creds
authfinder 10.0.0.1-10 -f creds.txt -c whoami
```

### IP Range Format

Supports various formats:
- Single IP: `192.168.1.10`
- Multi-IP: `192.168.1.15,17,29,153` 
- Range: `192.168.1.1-254`
- Multiple ranges: `10.0.1-5.10-20` (expands to all combinations)
- File with IP ranges: `targets.txt`

### Credential File Format

Create a text file with alternating username/password lines:

```
administrator
Password123!
admin
Pass123
backup_admin
:12345678123456781234567812345678
```

Lines starting with `#` are treated as comments. For NT hashes, use them directly as the password.

## Command-Line Options

```
Options:
  -v                      Verbose output (shows all tool attempts)
  -o                      Show successful command output (WARNING: may trigger AV)
  -f <file>               Use credential file instead of single username/password
  --threads <n>           Number of concurrent threads (default: 10)
  --tools <list>          Comma-separated list of tools to try in order
  --timeout <seconds>     Command timeout in seconds (default: 15)
  --run-all               Run all tools instead of stopping at first success
  --skip-portscan         Skip port scanning and attempt all tools
  --linux                 Enables Linux-only mode, which uses SSH and ignores other tools
```


## Todo

Add kerberos support lol
- Requires supporting hostnames and configuring `/etc/krb5.conf` for tools like evil-winrm
