Windows PrivEsc 01: Initial Enumeration (The Part That Actually Matters)

Windows PrivEsc 01: Initial Enumeration is a guide for engineers to enumerate a Windows system after gaining initial access. It covers essential commands to identify potential privilege escalation vectors, such as misconfigured services, tokens, and ACLs. The guide emphasizes the importance of properly enumerating the system to find vulnerabilities like SeImpersonatePrivilege and SeBackupPrivilege. Engineers should run commands like Get-WmiObject, whoami, ipconfig, arp, route, netstat, Get-MpComputerStatus, Get-AppLockerPolicy, tasklist, net user, net localgroup, and net accounts to gather information. This enumeration is crucial for identifying potential privilege escalation paths.
