Abusing trust on IPv6 with Active Directory
It’s been many years since Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) was created and became the de facto network protocol suite that is currently implemented on all devices that use a network to communicate. As you read earlier in this book, there are many network protocols that were not built with security in mind. One such protocol is the Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6). While IPv6 is the latest implementation of IP and is the successor of IPv4, this protocol is also vulnerable to a lot of network-based cyberattacks.
As an aspiring penetration tester, you can exploit the trust used within an Active Directory domain over an IPv6 network and compromise the Windows domain and the domain controller on the network. In this section, you will learn how to use a tool known as mitm6 to exploit the security vulnerabilities within IPv6 while performing an NTLM relay attack to gain control of the Active Directory domain...
