I found a somewhat peculiar powershell script today, the purpose of the script is to obtain administrator privileges and disable Windows antivirus, task manager and cmd by exploiting these privileges. In the git hub repostery the creator recommended converting the ps1 script to .exe and running it as such, surprisingly the executable worked even though my Windows Defender was active, I retested it several times, first trying to run the UAC bypass manually and then reusing the program, strangely the antivirus blocks my attempts but the magic program from github defeats the antivirus even though it doesn't seem like there's anything special to me. The thing that leaves me baffled is that the method used is simply the fudhelper that real-time protection normally blocks without problems. Is there anyone who knows about powershell or UAC bypass who can explain to me how this works? If anyone wants to help me learn more I can send them the github link privately but they have to write to me because I don't have an updated account.
uac bypass in powershell is working .... Why ? |

Fodhelper method.. this is what ScrubCrypt used as well. Fodhelper runs with escalated (admin) privs and then is manipulated with registry keys, bypassing UAC.
I know that the government has me on a list
I got my own list that has the government on it I'm on my best behavior in the key of a major Making all this money change my name and see you later

Normally windows real time protection prevents you from launching fodhelper.exe from powershell, I don't know if converting it to executable is normal for the script to bypass windows defender but I don't think so (Aug 20, 2024 05:51 AM)ttbr0 Wrote: looks like new code. its not surprising nor uncommon that newly rewritten code can bypass av because signatures are fragile like that. yes but in itself it is a very normal code, in short the ps1 in the bypassing section has the same 5 scripts that were used 4 years ago, I would like to understand what is special and why (Aug 19, 2024 03:34 PM)DramaKing Wrote: Centsicles should be interested in this.

Whether it currently bypasses Norton, I don't know. I'm also commenting out some lines because it changes a long list of registry keys. Be careful.

Be careful. didn't really wait for you reponse tbh (sorry),i tried it but .ps1 file got blocked and came up with the message something about "this files is dangerous" thats definitely not norton,and the registry file didnt let me execute because i didnt have admin |
