Want to master Windows internals for offensive security?!

Read ...

'Windows Internals, Part 1 & 2'

by Solomon & Ionescu.

It discusses processes, memory management & kernel mechanisms.

Essential for red teamers.

Abusing DbgPrint for stealthy data exfiltration?

Kernel-mode logging APIs let malware smuggle data via debug output, bypassing traditional network monitoring.

Works well in driver-based implants.

On Code Trick:

Need stealthy C2 communication?

Use ICMP echo requests to encode commands & TTL values to exfiltrate data.

Many firewalls ignore ICMP, making it a covert channel.

Abusing Windows Error Reporting (WER) for stealthy execution?

Drop payloads in

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportQueue\,

then trigger 'WerFault.exe' to load them.

Low detection, high persistence.

The 2014 Heartbleed bug exposed a brutal reality:

even widely trusted cryptographic libraries (OpenSSL) can harbor catastrophic flaws.

The lesson?

Continuous auditing > blind trust.

Abusing Windows COM objects for stealthy execution?

Use 'MMC20.Application' to execute commands outside direct process lineage tracking.

Works well against naive EDR correlation.

Public Wi-Fi isn’t your friend. 🛑

Even with HTTPS, evil twin APs, SSL stripping & MITM attacks are still a thing.

Use a trusted VPN, or better yet .. just don’t connect.

Your data isn’t worth the risk.

2017:
WannaCry spreads like wildfire, exploiting SMBv1 with EternalBlue.

Lesson?

Patching isn't optional.

If your infra still has unpatched, exposed SMB services in 2025, you’re just waiting for the next worm.

When we go back to 2010, Stuxnet attack redefined cyber-physical warfare.

Kerberos ticket delegation attacks are still underutilized.

Combine constrained delegation with 'S4U2Proxy' to impersonate high-privilege accounts without dumping creds.

Sysmon logs deep process activity, while Sigma translates TTPs into actionable detections.

Injecting shellcode?

Avoid VirtualAlloc/WriteProcessMemory detection..

Use (NtMapViewOfSection) with a shared memory section between processes.

It bypasses common EDR hooks.

Subtle persistence wins.

🛡️ Your password manager vault is only as strong as your master password.

If it's weak,

you've just created a single point of failure for all your credentials.

Go long, go random & enable MFA on the vault itself.

DNS tunneling remains a powerful covert channel for exfiltration.

Split your payload into TXT record chunks, encode in #Base32 & send via recursive queries.

Always test against DNS inspection solutions.
