UACMe

Defeating Windows User Account Control by abusing built-in Windows AutoElevate backdoor. This project demonstrates various UAC bypass techniques and serves as an educational resource for understanding Windows security mechanisms.

⚠️ Warning: This tool demonstrates security vulnerabilities that could be exploited maliciously. Use responsibly and only in controlled environments.

System Requirements

• Operating Systems: Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11 (x86-32/x64, client, some methods however works on server version too)
• User Account: Administrator account with UAC set on default settings

Usage

Run the executable from command line using the following syntax:

akagi32.exe [Method_Number] [Optional_Command]

or

akagi64.exe [Method_Number] [Optional_Command]

Parameters:

• Method_Number: Number corresponding to the UAC bypass method (see Methods List below)
• Optional_Command: Full path to an executable file to run with elevated privileges
  • If omitted, the program will launch an elevated command prompt (%systemroot%\system32\cmd.exe)

Examples:

akagi32.exe 23
akagi64.exe 61
akagi32.exe 23 c:\windows\system32\calc.exe
akagi64.exe 61 c:\windows\system32\charmap.exe

Note: Since version 3.5.0, all previously "fixed" methods are considered obsolete and have been removed. If you need them, use v3.2.x branch.

Note: As of version 3.7.0, methods "fixed" between 3.5.0 and 3.7.0 have been removed from UACMe methods table. If you need them, use the v3.6.x_plus branch The code for these methods is still available in the current branch for historical purposes.
