description	System exploitation testing - Active Directory attacks, privilege escalation (Linux/Windows), and exploit development.

System

Test system-level security including Active Directory, privilege escalation, and exploit development.

Techniques

Type	Key Vectors
Active Directory	Kerberoasting, AS-REP roasting, DCSync, PtH, Golden/RODC Ticket, RBCD, ACL abuse, KeyList, Shadow Credentials, ADCS (ESC1-9/16)
Privilege Escalation	SUID/sudo abuse, kernel exploits, service misconfig, token manipulation
Exploit Development	Buffer overflow, format string, ROP chains, shellcode, heap exploitation

Workflow

1. Enumerate system and domain information
2. Identify escalation paths and misconfigurations
3. Exploit with appropriate techniques
4. Demonstrate impact (domain admin, root access)
5. Document attack chain with evidence
