Aryma 03d283cf49 refactor(payload): rename apollo to ares and update documentation
This commit renames the Apollo payload type to Ares, moving all associated files and updating documentation accordingly. The change includes:
- Renaming directories from `apollo` to `ares`
- Updating documentation image references
- Maintaining the same code functionality while changing the payload name
- Adding new Ares-specific documentation files
- Removing old Apollo documentation files

The rename is done to reflect the new payload name while preserving all existing functionality.

Summary

Use mimikatz's sekurlsa::pth module to spawn a new process with a user's Kerberos keys.

Arguments

Domain

Domain that the specified user is part of.

User

Username for which you've obtained credential material for.

NTLM

NTLM password hash of the specified user.

AES128 (Optional)

The AES128 key of the user. Used for over pass the hash.

AES256 (Optional)

The AES256 key of the user. Used for over pass the hash.

Run (Optional)

Program to spawn using alternate credentials. Default: cmd.exe.

{{% notice info %}} When choosing a program to spawn, consider whether or not you need the process to be long-lived. A process that spawns and exits immediately will not be a good candidate to perform steal_token against, for example, as the process will no longer exist when attempting to impersonate the credential material. {{% /notice %}}

Usage

pth -Domain [domain.local] -User [username] -NTLM [ntlm_hash_val] [-AES128 [aes_128_val] -AES256 [aes_256_val] -Run [cmd.exe]]

Example

pth -Domain contoso.local -User djhohnstein -NTLM 21BC7DCD88EE195ECF3728677A47815B
pth -Domain contoso.local -User djhohnstein -NTLM 21BC7DCD88EE195ECF3728677A47815B -Run powershell.exe
