Module Options

Here is a complete list of user-desc module options:

# cme ldap -M user-desc --options
[*] user-desc module options:

        LDAP_FILTER     Custom LDAP search filter (fully replaces the default search)
        DESC_FILTER     An additional seach filter for descriptions (supports wildcard *)
        DESC_INVERT     An additional seach filter for descriptions (shows non matching)
        USER_FILTER     An additional seach filter for usernames (supports wildcard *)
        USER_INVERT     An additional seach filter for usernames (shows non matching)
        KEYWORDS        Use a custom set of keywords (comma separated)
        ADD_KEYWORDS    Add additional keywords to the default set (comma separated)

Note that none of these options is required. If you want to change any of the default values, you can do so by adding, e.g. -o LDAP_FILTER=VALUE parameter to the command line.

Module Usage

This is how to use the user-desc module while using the ldap protocol:

Syntax:
# cme ldap <TARGET[s]> -u <USERNAME> -p <PASSWORD> -d <DOMAIN> -M user-desc

Local admin
# cme ldap 10.0.5.1 -u Administrator -p P@ss123 -d . -M user-desc
# cme ldap 10.0.5.1 -u Administrator -p P@ss123 --local-auth -M user-desc

Domain user
# cme ldap 10.0.5.1 -u bkpadmin -p P@ss123 -d target.corp -M user-desc

CrackMapExec also supports passing the hash, so you can specify NTLM hash instead of a password:

# cme ldap 10.0.5.1 -u Administrator -H 432b022dc22aa5afe884e986b8383ff2 -d . -M user-desc
# cme ldap 10.0.5.1 -u bkpadmin -H 432b022dc22aa5afe884e986b8383ff2 -d target.corp -M user-desc
The user-desc module can be also used against multiple hosts. Here's how to run it against multiple hosts:

# cme ldap target_list.txt -u Administrator -p P@ss123 -d . -M user-desc
# cme ldap 10.0.5.0/24 -u Administrator -p P@ss123 -d . -M user-desc
# cme ldap 10.0.5.1-100 -u Administrator -p P@ss123 -d . -M user-desc
