Output

**Prerequisites:** * An Azure Virtual Machine (VM) with the AADInternals tool installed * AADInternals installation: [https://github.com/AzureAD/aadinternals](https://github.com/AzureAD/aadinternals) * Azure Active Directory (AAD) credentials with elevated permissions **Steps:** 1. **Enable Remote PowerShell:** - On the target VM, run: `Enable-PSRemoting -Force` 2. **Establish a Remote PowerShell Connection:** - On your local machine, open Windows PowerShell and run:

     Enter-PSSession -ComputerName <VM_Name> -Credential <AAD_Credentials>
     

- Replace `<VM_Name>` with the name of the target VM and `<AAD_Credentials>` with your AAD credentials. 3. **Copy AADInternals to the VM:** - Copy the AADInternals scripts to a directory on the VM, such as `C:\Temp\AADInternals`. 4. **Run the Script:** - Run the desired AADInternals script on the VM using remote PowerShell. For example, to reset the local administrator password:

     .\Reset-LocalAdminPassword.ps1 [-User <username>]
     

- Replace `<username>` with the username of the local administrator account you want to reset. 5. **Exit Remote PowerShell:** - Exit the remote PowerShell session by running:

     Exit-PSSession
     

**Example Commands:** * **Reset local administrator password:**

  Enter-PSSession -ComputerName myvm -Credential myAADCredentials
  .\Reset-LocalAdminPassword.ps1 -User Administrator
  

* **Dump Azure AD access tokens:**

  Enter-PSSession -ComputerName myvm -Credential myAADCredentials
  .\Dump-AzureADTokens.ps1

How do I run a script on Azure VMs via AADInternals?

Output

**Prerequisites:** * An Azure subscription * An Azure VM deployed in the subscription * AADInternals module installed on a computer (download from https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Samples/tree/main/samples/active-directory-interoperability/aadinternals) **Steps:** 1. **Establish Azure CLI Session and Azure AD Authentication:** - Open Azure Cloud Shell or a local terminal and run the following command to sign in to Azure:

   az login
   

- Ensure you are using AAD credentials. 2. **Retrieve VM Information:** - Use the `az vm show` command to gather details about the VM you want to target:

   az vm show --name <VM_NAME> --resource-group <RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME> --query [output_properties] -o tsv
   

- Make note of the `primaryPublicIpAddress` and `computerName` properties. 3. **Connect to VM Using AADInternals:** - Open an elevated command prompt on the computer where AADInternals is installed. - Use the `AADConnect` script to establish a connection to the VM:

   aadconnect.ps1 -computerName <COMPUTER_NAME> -ipAddress <PRIMARY_PUBLIC_IP_ADDRESS> -username <USER_NAME> -password <PASSWORD>
   

- Replace `<COMPUTER_NAME>` with the VM's `computerName`, `<PRIMARY_PUBLIC_IP_ADDRESS>` with the VM's `primaryPublicIpAddress`, `<USER_NAME>` with the username, and `<PASSWORD>` with the password for the user account on the VM. 4. **Execute Script on VM:** - Once connected, you can execute scripts on the VM by prefixing the command with `psexec`:

   psexec.exe -i -s "script.ps1"
   

- For example, to change the computer name:

   psexec.exe -i -s "wmic computersystem where name='%computername%' call rename name=%newcomputername%"
   

5. **Disconnect from VM:** - When finished, enter `exit` to disconnect from the VM. **Note:** * The AADInternals module allows you to bypass Azure security mechanisms, so use it responsibly. * If you encounter any errors, ensure you have the correct Azure AD credentials and the required permissions for the targeted VM.

How do I run a script on Azure VMs via AADInternals?

Output

**Prerequisites:** * Azure Virtual Machine (VM) with an AAD identity * Azure Active Directory Premium P2 license * Windows Sysinternals Suite from Microsoft * Access to an Azure AD-joined Windows machine **Procedure:** 1. **Grant permissions to the service principal:** - Sign in to the Azure portal and navigate to **Azure Active Directory**. - Select **Enterprise Applications** and then **All applications**. - Search for and select the service principal for AADInternals (typically **AADInternals**). - Click **Owners** and add the service principal for the VM (which has an AAD identity). 2. **Copy files to the VM:** - Download the **Sysinternals Suite** from Microsoft and extract the **PsExec.exe** file to a local directory. - Sign in to the Azure AD-joined Windows machine and create a shared folder. - Copy the **PsExec.exe** file to the shared folder. 3. **Establish a remote connection to the VM:** - Open an elevated PowerShell prompt on the AD-joined machine. - Run the following command to establish a remote PowerShell session to the VM:

     Enter-PSSession -ComputerName <VM Name> -Credential <VM AAD Identity>
     

4. **Create the startup script:** - In the remote PowerShell session, create a batch script file (.bat) that will run the desired commands. For example:

     @echo off
     cd C:\shared
     .\PsExec.exe \\.\pipe\NETHSTSVC qq user.domain.svc /accepteula notepad
     

- Save the script file to a location on the VM (e.g., `C:\temp\startup.bat`). 5. **Set up the startup task:** - Run the following PowerShell commands to create a scheduled task that will run the script at system startup:

     schtasks /Create /SC atlogon /TN AzureVMScript /TR "C:\temp\startup.bat"
     schtasks /Run /TN AzureVMScript
     

6. **Restart the VM:** - Exit the remote PowerShell session. - Restart the Azure VM to trigger the startup script. 7. **Verify the script execution:** - Reconnect to the VM using the remote PowerShell session as outlined in step 3. - Check the output of the script by running the following command:

     notepad.exe C:\Users\<User>\Documents\PSExec.txt
     

**Additional Notes:** * Replace `<VM Name>` with the name of your Azure VM. * Replace `<VM AAD Identity>` with the AAD identity of the VM (typically in the format `azurecrhelper@<Tenant ID>.onmicrosoft.com`). * You can modify the startup script to execute any commands you need. * Ensure that the necessary permissions are granted to the VM's AAD identity and the service principal for AADInternals. * The startup script will continue running even if the remote PowerShell session is disconnected.

How do I run a script on Azure VMs via AADInternals?

Output

**Prerequisites:** * Install the AADInternals PowerShell module on the local machine. * Configure Azure AD authentication using a service principal or user account. * Obtain the subscription ID, resource group name, and VM name. **Steps:** 1. **Open a PowerShell console.** 2. **Authenticate to Azure AD:** - Service principal:

     Connect-AzureAD -TenantId <tenant-id> -ApplicationId <appId> -CertificateFilePath <certificate-path>
     

- User account:

     Connect-AzureAD -Credential <credential>
     

3. **Set the context to the subscription:**

   Select-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionId <subscription-id>
   

4. **Obtain the VM object:**

   $vm = Get-AzureRmVM -Name <vm-name> -ResourceGroupName <resource-group-name>
   

5. **Invoke AADInternals to remotely execute a script:**

   Invoke-ADInternalsScript -TargetEndpoint $vm.Outputs.PowerShellEndpoint -ScriptPath "C:\path\to\script.ps1"
   

**Example:** To run the `'Hello World'` script on an Azure VM using a service principal:

# Prerequisites
$subscriptionId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
$resourceGroupName = "MyResourceGroup"
$vmName = "MyVM"
$tenantId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
$appId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
$certificatePath = "C:\path\to\certificate.pfx"

# Authentication
Connect-AzureAD -TenantId $tenantId -ApplicationId $appId -CertificateFilePath $certificatePath

# Subscription
Select-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionId $subscriptionId

# VM object
$vm = Get-AzureRmVM -Name $vmName -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName

# Remote script execution
Invoke-ADInternalsScript -TargetEndpoint $vm.Outputs.PowerShellEndpoint -ScriptPath "C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Scripts\Hello-World.ps1"

**Note:** * The target VM must have a listening PowerShell Endpoint for remote execution to work. * For additional security, consider using stored credentials in AADInternals for passwordless authentication.

How do I run a script on Azure VMs via AADInternals?

Output

**Prerequisites:** * Azure Subscription with AAD credentials * Application Registration with Service Principal in the Azure AD tenant * Azure VM created and running in the subscription **Steps:** 1. **Download AADInternals:** - Navigate to https://github.com/Azure/aad-pod-identity/releases/ and download the latest release compatible with your OS. 2. **Copy AADInternals to the VM:** - Use a tool like SFTP or SCP to copy `aad-pod-identity-*.tar.gz` to the VM. 3. **Extract AADInternals:** - On the VM, run the following command to extract the files:

   tar -xf aad-pod-identity-*.tar.gz
   

4. **Establish AAD Connection:** - Run the following command to initialise the AAD connection using your service principal credentials:

   aadpod-init --servicePrincipal <Application ID> --secret <Client secret>
   

- Provide your Application ID and Client secret from the service principal. 5. **Run the Script:** - Create a script on the VM in a file named `myscript.sh`. - For example:

   echo Hello World!
   

- Run the script using the following command:

   aadpod-run myscript.sh
   

**Additional Notes:** * To elevate the script to run as root, use `aadpod-run --privileged myscript.sh`. * You can pass arguments to the script by adding them after the script name. * The script runs in the context of AAD service principal, so the permissions of the service principal determine the script's capabilities. * To re-establish AAD connection if the credentials change, run `aadpod-rerun` before executing any more scripts.
