RedSnarf is a pen-testing/red-teaming tool for retrieving hashes and credentials from Windows workstations, servers, and domain controllers using OpSec-safe techniques. It supports hash dumping, pass-the-hash, LSASS dumping, NTDS.dit extraction, and various remote administration tasks.

Use cases

  • retrieve hashes and credentials from windows machines
  • dump domain controller hashes with ntdsutil or drsuapi
  • perform pass-the-hash attacks during pentests
  • spray hashes across a subnet to find weak credentials
  • decrypt gpp cpassword and winscp passwords
  • find where domain users are logged in remotely
  • retrieve wifi passwords from remote windows machines

When to choose

  • you are doing authorized red-team or penetration testing against windows/active-directory environments
  • you need opsec-safe credential retrieval and hash dumping in one tool
  • you want quick enumeration of elevated users, lsa secrets, and cached credentials

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained tool - the last release was 2020 and development appears stalled
  • you are not on a windows-focused engagement or lack the required dependencies like impacket and creddump7
  • you need stealth against modern EDR, as techniques like lsass dumping are widely detected
