For security teams conducting authorized assessments, Cable represents a significant addition to the Active Directory testing toolkit, offering a comprehensive suite of reconnaissance and exploitation modules in a single, well-documented framework. Security researchers and penetration testers have a powerful new tool in their arsenal with the recent development of Cable, an advanced post-exploitation toolkit designed specifically for Active Directory environments. Cable operates as a modular command-line tool that enables security professionals to thoroughly assess Active Directory security postures after initial access has been achieved. The toolkit is published under the GPL-3.0 license, making it freely available for security professionals to use in authorized penetration testing and security assessment activities. Created by developer Logan Goins, this .NET-based utility provides comprehensive capabilities for reconnaissance and exploitation of Discretionary Access Control List (DACL) vulnerabilities within enterprise networks. The developer notes that the tool serves both as a learning project and as a means to expand knowledge of “Active Directory focused offensive security”.
