Decepticon

EtherNet/IP + CIP (TCP 44818 / UDP 2222) attack playbook — List Identity broadcast, pylogix tag-database dump, tag read/write on Allen-Bradley ControlLogix/CompactLogix, CIP Forward Open, PLC mode change (Stop/Run), and historical Rockwell auth-bypass CVEs. North American ICS dominant protocol.

Entra Conditional Access bypass — discover policy gaps, exploit legacy-auth protocols (IMAP/POP/SMTP-AUTH/EWS), spoof device/platform/UA/location conditions, abuse service-principals + app-based auth excluded from CA, and break-glass account misuse.

Entra ID OAuth device-code phishing for token theft, illicit consent grant via malicious app registration with delegated Graph scopes, refresh-token replay, and primary-refresh-token (PRT) abuse concepts.

Entra ID / M365 reconnaissance — unauthenticated tenant discovery via OpenID config, GetUserRealm, autodiscover; user enumeration via login response codes and OneDrive; federation/MFA/CA posture; authenticated enumeration with ROADtools (roadrecon), AADInternals, MSGraph.

Entra ID privilege escalation + persistence — app role/owner abuse, service-principal credential addition, dynamic group membership abuse, Administrative Unit role assignment, hybrid identity attacks (Connect, PHS, PTA, Seamless SSO, Golden SAML), Graph API privesc paths.

Author and deploy an evilginx2 phishlet to reverse-proxy a real login and capture the post-authentication session cookie, defeating MFA via session-token theft.

Evil-twin rogue AP with KARMA/Mana PNL-probe response, captive-portal credential capture, and post-association MITM for PSK/open networks. Distinct from wpa-enterprise-eap which targets 802.1X.

Hunt LLM excessive agency (OWASP LLM06:2025) — agentic systems granted too many tools, too broad permissions per tool, or unsupervised authority to act on the user / business behalf, producing financial loss, data loss, or destructive operations from a single bad token.

OS Command Injection — exploiting applications that pass user input to OS commands without sanitization. Covers injection operators (;, |, ||, &&, $(), backticks, newline), blind detection (time-based, OOB callback), and bypass techniques (space, keyword, encoding).

Insecure deserialization — RCE via malicious serialized objects in Java (ysoserial), PHP (PHPGGC), .NET (ysoserial.net), and Python (pickle). Covers gadget chain selection, payload generation, and injection into cookies, POST bodies, ViewState, and API endpoints.

Stage 5 exploit construction playbook. Weaponizes validated primitives into multi-step chains that reach crown jewels. Load at exploiter-agent startup.

Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) — authorization bypass through predictable object references (sequential IDs, UUIDs, filenames, encoded IDs). Covers horizontal/vertical privilege escalation, ID enumeration, HTTP method tampering, and JWT sub claim manipulation.

Exploitation finding documentation — initial access reports, exploit chain documentation, CVSS v4.0 scoring, shell/credential inventory, detection gap analysis.

Evidence-led exploit technical methods and evidence interpretation for the relevant environment.

Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) — exploiting server-side URL fetching to access internal services, cloud metadata (AWS/GCP/Azure), internal APIs, and port scanning. Covers IP bypass techniques, DNS rebinding, Gopher protocol smuggling, and redirect-based bypass.

Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) — RCE through template engines. Covers Jinja2 (Python/Flask), Twig (PHP/Symfony), Freemarker (Java), ERB (Ruby), Razor (.NET). Includes engine fingerprinting, MRO chain construction, and filter bypass.

XML External Entity (XXE) injection — local file reading via XML parsers, SOAP/WSDL API exploitation, blind out-of-band exfiltration, SVG/DOCX/XLSX upload XXE. Use for any challenge involving XML processing, SOAP endpoints, WSDL services, or XML-based file upload parsing.

Arbitrary file upload exploitation — webshell upload, extension bypass, content-type manipulation, and upload-to-RCE techniques.

FIN7 (Carbon Spider / Sangria Tempest) adversary-emulation playbook — revenue-targeted spearphishing with phone follow-up, EDR-evasion tradecraft, AD compromise, and big-game-hunting ransomware. Use when emulating a high-end financially-motivated crew that graduated from POS theft to ransomware. Triggers on: 'emulate FIN7', 'Carbanak', 'Carbon Spider', 'Sangria Tempest', 'big game hunting', 'EDR evasion', 'AvNeutralizer'.

Adversary-emulation profile for FIN7 (G0046; aka Carbanak, Carbon Spider, Sangria Tempest, GOLD NIAGARA, ELBRUS) — a financially motivated Russian-speaking crime group, mapping its TTPs to Decepticon tooling for authorized red-team emulation.
