If you have hardware access, it is basically game over. You can also bypass Linux root password by changing grub parameters. Unless the disk is encrypted that is. So on unencrypted system, you can take over by restarting the system.
It's the default theme when explorer is not working correctly. If you kill explorer in most Windows versions and start it back up it will briefly display in classic theme. It seems like it's built-in or something.
I used it as a backdoor on the school laptops once. There installation and update routine used the SYSTEM user and of of the setup.exe's opened a browser with a "thank you for using us" message... definitely didn't give me a chance to grab a cmd from the local filesystem and do a lot of other shit. I never bricked them though, that was the one thing I made sure of.
I used it a few times as well. SYSTEM user can bypass any login feature on win7, and allow anyone to delete rollback/disk image software such as DeepFreeze.
SYSTEM tampering is difficult to detect unless you're actively looking for it. Session 0 is only a session without a session token, naturally things there run as system. you can run things as SYSTEM anywhere else just fine.
This reminds me of tricks in older NT-based Windows (NT3/4/2K/XP/2K3) where you could change a registry setting for the default user's screensaver from logon.scr to cmd.exe, optionally lower the timeout value, reboot, wait at the login screen for cmd to pop up, and have fun without ever logging in!

I don't think you can, because if VNC is basically remote control, you're still sending mouse inputs. If the session doesn't accept those, it neither won't via VNC. But hey, you could try !
I remember that remote desktop software like VNC installed as a service wouldn't initially work on Windows 7, because they just connected you to the empty session 0 and you couldn't do anything. I wonder how TeamViewer etc. worked around this, since they seem to work just fine, as does later versions of UltraVNC.
Interesting that they even carried that feature over to Win10 at all. (Since Win10 was supposed to be so modern and backwards compatability was cut down greatly. Also, they probably wanted companies to finally move on from old code, since they blocked mouse/keyboard input first and thus encouraged customers to annoy the hell out of them.) Also, while this may not be in direct connection with Session 0, there is a way to enable GUI Interaction for services (at least in services.msc). Maybe, possibly, that could do something? I never coded a service, but I know you can do a lot with a custom one. (Like PsExec which uses a service to elevate to SYSTEM.) Also I think Process Explorer could do something interesting (Reading process info about a session 0 process, trying to read threads or send a message to that session), but I currently can't check that.
@@FlyTechVideos Possibly. It just shows up as a checkbox under _every_ service in services.msc and AFAIK its still there under the newest windows version (Where ui0detect got removed) I have never used it, just saw it and thought that these may be connected.

Is it possible to redirect the output of cmd.exe to some program of your own so you can have a working command line in Session 0? In the latest versions of Windows 10, I mean.
I think PsExec actually redirects the output of a program to where it was called from IF it's used to run a program on a remote computer, so you can get a remote shell through it without using things like SSH... So it definetly is possible in some way
I have seen session 0 before! It was on my school computer where when we are logging in, pressing ctrl+alt+del would ended up in session 0. Although we cannot run anything on it and after a few seconds it would return to the main screen automatically, we thought that this may speed up the log in process. Never thought it was something special.
@@lxmental I don't think Session 0 can do much harm. Besides, if Session 0 did turn out to be a virus, why would they package it with the computer then?
It's not a virus, its just good practice. Session Isolation has been a thing for a while now, its just used to keep services from being possibly exploited and used as a priv escalation vector

Can you do a video on SECDRV.SYS and possibly how to safely re-enable it on Windows 10? It is known as "Secure Drive" and it was used for DRM like SafeDisk for some old disk games used to prevent disk copying. This was completely removed in Windows 10 and later removed in 8.1, 8 and 7. I am not sure in Vista but Windows XP still has it. The removal of this broke a whole lot of good old games as the system can't read the disk properly any more.

Fly você já tentou, no Windows 10, em um computador com touchscreen?
Guy: Is that Windows Server 2003?
Flytech: No. It's Session 0 on Windows 7.
wait . . . if we cant access session 0 keyboard/mouse input, could you put a network backdoor in there and connect to it from the normal session? 😎
I think this can be done using SSH's feature that allows to pass input to the connected device.

what happens if you delete the NT File?
What file exactly? Can you please specify?
FlyTech Videos so you go to the system32 folder, and there should be a NT file somewhere
