We’ve been improving our AI pentesting agent’s Active Directory capabilities for months, and it’s gotten scary good at finding privilege escalation paths. To test its latest improvements, we built a lab that mimicked a small enterprise setup and gave it one low-privileged domain account. Twenty-seven minutes later, it had Domain Administrator access and every password hash in the environment.
The attack chain looked like this:

We’ve been improving our AI pentesting agent’s Active Directory capabilities for months, and it’s gotten scary good at finding privilege escalation paths. To test its latest improvements, we built a lab that mimicked a small enterprise setup and gave it one low-privileged domain account. Twenty-seven minutes later, it had Domain Administrator access and every password hash in the environment.
The attack chain looked like this:
attacker1 (low-priv user) → GenericAll on bob → password reset → bob (Developers) → GenericAll on alice → password reset → alice (WebAdmins) → WriteProperty on WIN11 delegation → RBCD attack → local admin on WIN11 → LSA Secrets dump → svc-sync credentials → DCSync rights → Domain Administrator hash → full domain compromise.
The lab was intentionally realistic. A Windows Server 2022 Domain Controller at 10.10.10.10, a Windows 11 workstation at 10.10.10.20, and a dozen user accounts with typical group memberships. We seeded it with the exact misconfigurations we see in real networks: excessive ACL permissions, service accounts with too many privileges, and credentials stored in places they shouldn’t be.
The agent started with aggressive enumeration. Port scans confirmed the Domain Controller, then it began querying LDAP for every user, group, and computer object it could access.
The ACL Chain
The agent discovered it had GenericAll permissions on bob. That meant it could reset his password:

Once authenticated as bob, it found that the Developers group (which bob belonged to) had GenericAll on alice. Another password reset:

This kind of ACL chaining is what the agent has become exceptionally good at identifying. What made alice valuable was her membership in WebAdmins, which had AddAllowedToAct permissions on WIN11—the key to Resource-Based Constrained Delegation attacks.
Resource-Based Constrained Delegation
RBCD lets you configure “who can impersonate users to me” on the target resource instead of configuring “who I can impersonate to” on the delegating service. The critical difference is that modifying RBCD only requires AddAllowedToAct permission — no Domain Admin needed.
The agent created a computer account called FAKECOMP$, configured RBCD to allow FAKECOMP$ to impersonate users to WIN11, then used Kerberos S4U2Self and S4U2Proxy to request service tickets as Administrator.

Credential Extraction to Domain Admin
With local admin on WIN11, the agent dumped LSA Secrets — the registry location where Windows stores service account passwords. There it found svc-sync:SvcSync#123!.

The agent authenticated as svc-sync and immediately checked for replication rights. This is where its improved Active Directory knowledge really mattered. It knew that service accounts with DCSync permissions are the fast path to domain compromise.

DCSync worked. The agent extracted every password hash in the domain, including the Domain Administrator’s NTLM hash. From there, pass-the-hash gave it full access to the Domain Controller:

Twenty-seven minutes from initial access to Domain Admin shell.
The complete session trace with every command and output is available below. The takeaway: AI agents have gotten exceptionally good at Active Directory privilege escalation.
