Cmdkey Saved Credentials
The cmdkey command can be used to create, list, and delete stored usernames and passwords.
Users may wish to store credentials for a specific host or use it to store credentials for terminal services connections to connect to a remote host using Remote Desktop without needing to enter a password.
This may help us either move laterally to another system with a different user or escalate privileges on the current host to leverage stored credentials for another user.
cmdkey /list
We can also attempt to reuse the credentials using
runas
to send ourselves a reverse shell as that user, run a binary, or launch a PowerShell or CMD console with a command such as:
Run Commands as Another User Windows
runas /savecred /user:inlanefreight\bob "COMMAND HERE"
