Skill UI

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for performing privilege escalation assessments post-initial compromise. It guides testers in identifying paths from low-privilege access to root or SYSTEM-level control on both Linux and Windows operating systems. Techniques covered include abusing SUID binaries, exploiting misconfigured services, leveraging kernel vulnerabilities, and harvesting credentials.

This skill covers advanced techniques used in red teaming and penetration testing to elevate privileges from a low-level user to root access on a compromised Linux system. It details how to enumerate and exploit various vectors, including SUID/SGID binaries, misconfigured sudo rules, kernel vulnerabilities (e.g., Dirty Pipe), Cron job abuse, and abusing system services. Essential for comprehensive security assessments.
