People, PLEASE at least take the time to read the OP before just adding comments. You don't get any "temporary domain admin privileges." Period. Authenticating against cached domain credentials on a local system cannot be used for ANYTHING other than logging on to the local system when a controller is not available. Period. Now, please read this part carefully: *You must be a local administrator to use utilities to overwrite the cached verifier of cached credentials.* The most you can do is to allow yourself to log on as an account that has local admin. YOU ARE ALREADY A LOCAL ADMIN AT THIS POINT.
1) You MUST be local admin to access the cached domain credentials.
2) You can't log on to any network resources as the cached user.
3) You can't long on to another workstation as the cached user.
4) You can't access any EFS or other user-based data as the cached user.
to see confidential files..
I would expect that the intent is to use another flaw for a normal
user to become a local admin, and then jump to domain admin via this.
So yes. In an enterprise environment, the "domain administrator" is "bigger".

exploit was published in January 2009.
Attackers without a registered account or with a comment level account
can exploit cross site scripting (XSS) to steal cookies from other
users, cross site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability to execute
administrator functions including adding a new administrator account and
can exploit a file path disclosure vulnerability.
Attackers with an administrator account, possibly gained by using the
exploits described above can exploit local file inclusion and command
execution vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary commands. Journalist and
Wow. I guess you didn't read the post either. I'm a bit surprised that a Sr. Network Engineer thinks that Group Policies "differentiate between local and Domain administrators." You're making it sound like you think Group Policy application has some "magic permissions" or something, or that a "domain administrator" is a "bigger" administrator than the local administrator.
Group Policy loads from the client via the Group Policy Client service. If I'm a local admin, I can just set my local system to not process group policy via the GPExtensions hive. Done. If I take the domain admin out of my local administrators, they can't do anything. Done.
How exactly do you think this is problematic for "shops that differentiate between desktop support and AD support"? (whatever that means).

A vulnerability was found in the way that WordPress handles some URL
requests. This results in unprivileged users viewing the content of
plugins configuration pages, and also in some plugins modifying plugin
options and injecting JavaScript code. Arbitrary native code may be run
by a malicious attacker if the blog administrator runs injected
JavasScript code that edits blog PHP code. Many WordPress-powered blogs,
hosted outside 'wordpress.com', allow any person to create unprivileged
users called subscribers. Other sensitive username information
disclosures were found in WordPress.

Your objections are mostly true in a normal sense. However, it is not
true when Group Policy is taken into account. Group Policies
differentiate between local and Domain administrators and so this
vulnerability is problematic for shops that differentiate between
desktop support and AD support.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
1.5 Input passed via the "search" GET parameter to /admin/xsell.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in administrator's browser session in context of affected website.
The following PoC demonstrates the vulnerability:
http://[host]/admin/xsell.php?search=%27%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E
displaying unsanitized user input received from an invalid
login attempt.
This can be exploited without valid credentials or social
engineering. Access to device administration IP address is
needed and an administrator has to view event log at some point,
however.
Successful attack requires that an administrator visits event
log page, thus enabling the attacker to control the chassis
and blade configuration by running the injected content which

Default credentials
+------------------
Default credentials are assigned for several predefined user accounts
on the device including the administrative user account. Any user
with network access to the device can log in as an administrator and
take complete control over the vulnerable device.
* CSCtb83495 ( registered customers only) has been assigned the CVE
identifier CVE-2010-0595.
While we are at it... quite a few Thin Clients based on Windows XPe
deply with Administrator / Administrator and User / User as default
user / pass combinations. By default User is part of the
Administrator group. For an Aded bonus there is a VNC password of Wyse

If administrator login time is known and session is still valid, it

Burp Intruder) can be used for this.
Successful exploitation requires that administrator login time is

* Cross-Site-Request-Forgery (XSRF) (CVE-2010-3891)
The forms in the administrator interface are not protected against XSRF. The
attacker can do any action in the context of the victim.
An example attack scenario could be:
The attacker creates a malicious website with a prepared form to add a new
user, which will be submitted on load.

Severity
========
Mild. It requires an administrator to be logged in and to be tricked into a specially
crafted webpage.
Summary
=======
Log into bytehoard using a non privileged user.
Perform any desired actions, then log out.
Click on the "Lost Details" link.
Input the desired username you want to have access to ("admin" to get
administrator access) and submit the data.
The system will either return an error message or a "mail sent" message.
Ignore the last message and go directly to the index.php page (easily
obtained by erasing the "?page=passreset" part)
You should have access to the desired account.

2. This issue is not about a user on the host compromising a virtual guest.
It is about a *non-privileged* user on the host being logged in to guest
machines as an administrator, and a worm--running in the context of that
non-privileged user on the host--being able to access the admin-level
context of the guest machines without knowing those administrator
credentials. Also remember that since I am talking about a non-privileged
user on the host, there will be limits on what this user could do to
accomplish some of the other attacks mentioned.

The reason I wrote this article was not to explain how to create a hidden
user account. I wrote the article to show you that you can modify the SAM
in real time in a way that is undetectable by ANYONE. This modification
allows you to masquerade any user account as the built-in Administrator.
Christian,
"Continued Access" to a system means that someone has compromised a system
