The Locksmith Active Directory (AD) Certificate Services (CS) remediation tool has been updated: https://github.com/TrimarcJake/Locksmith

New features:
- Support for Restricted Admin Mode. If RAM is detected, Locksmith will ask to be re-run using the -Credential switch.
- If the AD Powershell module is not installed on Win 10/11, Locksmith will attempt to install it for you.
Note: previously only available on server-class OSes.
- New functions for checking user type and elevation status.
- Auto-generated snippets for ownership issues (a subset of ESC4/ESC5).
- Support for non-English Active Directory evironments!

Next planned updates:
- Add individual CA Hosts to $SafeUsers using SIDs.
- Perform additional environment checks before attempting to run.
- Rename modes to something that makes sense.

@jerry @lerg Great to hear you guys finally doing another #DefensiveSecurity Podcast :) Thanks, it was a fun listen, and I hope you can keep it up !!

I was driving down to catch up with my good friend @justcallmepips yesterday morning and I was listening to a couple of podcasts, including this one.

So there was
@kurtseifried and @joshbressers chatting away as usual.

Then @jerry shows up and I'm like "That voice sounds familiar. I'm sure I've heard him before." and it was bugging the hell out of me.
It wasn't until Kurt (I think) mentioned the #DefensiveSecurity #podcast that it twigged with me.
