Errors when running v4.7

[robertstrom]

I have tried running several certipy-ad find commands to try to determine whether any of our ADCS configurations are vulnerable and have been experiencing errors while running the tool.

Here is one of the commands that I have run

certipy-ad find -dc-ip <dc_ip> -u <user_id> -p $PASS -enabled -debug

The output results are contained in the attached certipy_4.7_error.txt file.

Most of the checks seem to run and I am not sure what, if any, impact these errors are having on the functionality of the tool checks.

I am running certipy on Kali

PRETTY_NAME="Kali GNU/Linux Rolling" NAME="Kali GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="2023.4" VERSION="2023.4" VERSION_CODENAME=kali-rolling ID=kali

NOTE: This Kali has been upgraded from pervious versions and has had previous versions of certipy installed (not sure if that could be contributing to the problem so I figured that I would mention it).

VERY cool tool / thanks very much for all of your work on this!

Please upgrade to the latest version. This error should've been fixed in the latest one.

I believe that I have removed all previous traces of any previous versions of certipy and installed the current version and things appear to be mostly working. When running the command without the -vulnerable argument things appear to work and I do get a resulting text, json, and zip file with results.

When I run the command with the -vulnerable argument I get similar errors as shown below

This is running the command without the -vulnerable argument

This is the tail end of the results without the -vulnerable argument showing the results files created and it shows the basic error when running the command with the -vulnerable argument

This is a screenshot of the debug error when running the command with the -vulnerable argument

Here is the text of the error message

Strange. Can you try with -scheme ldap

[robertstrom]

Here are the things that I tried and the results

This command works without error and produces results files

/home/rstrom/.local/bin/certipy find -dc-ip <dc_ip> -u <user_id> -p $PASS -scheme ldap

This command errors

/home/rstrom/.local/bin/certipy find -dc-ip <dc_ip> -u <user_id> -p $PASS -scheme ldap - vulnerable

This is the same command as above with debug added

/home/rstrom/.local/bin/certipy find -dc-ip <dc_ip> -u <user_id> -p $PASS -scheme ldap -vulnerable -debug

Here is the complete debug message

In case you haven't figure this out yet, I think the issue you are facing (similar to what i faced) is that the timeout isn't set long enough to resolve all the SIDs.

If you do -timeout 30, you should be good

[sonam0690]

I am facing the similar issue as above and -timeout is not working. Any other solution/suggestions?
