almandin/ntdsdotsqliteA small utility to translate NTDS.dit files to SQLite format.
This software can be used either directly as a CLI utility or as a library to get an SQLite database from an NTDS.DIT one. Encrypted bits can be decrypted if the associated system hive is provided altogether.
python -m pip install ntdsdotsqlite
ntdsdotsqlite NTDS.DIT --system SYSTEM -o NTDS.sqlite
usage: NTDS.sqlite [-h] [--system SYSTEM] -o OUTFILE NTDS
This tool helps dumping NTDS.DIT file to an SQLite database
positional arguments:
NTDS The NTDS.DIT file
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--system SYSTEM The SYSTEM hive to decrypt hashes. If not provided, hashes will be encrypted inside the sqlite database.
-o OUTFILE, --outfile OUTFILE
The sqlite database. Example : NTDS.sqlite
The SQL model is described in the sql_model.md file in this repository. Basicaly, not all objects are extracted (at all), but the following are retrieved as of today : domain object, user accounts, machine accounts, groups, organizational units and containers. I thought these would be the most useful. If you need more object classes to be extracted or additional attributes, feel free to open an issue or a pull request !
Performances can be a bit low for huge NTDS files. The whole NTDS is not stored in memory to prevent memory exhaustion when working on huge files (NTDS databases can grow to several gigabytes).
