No it's not the same as #519.

Describe the bug

Parsing the config fails.

To Reproduce

➜ cme smb 10.0.x.x -u user -H hash
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/cme", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('crackmapexec==5.2.3', 'console_scripts', 'cme')())

    d = self._unify_values(section, vars)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/configparser.py", line 1153, in _unify_values
    raise NoSectionError(section) from None
configparser.NoSectionError: No section: 'BloodHound'

In #519 the workaround was to disable bloodhound by setting bh_enabled = False but here I have the default config file where it's already disabled.

/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/cme/data/cme.conf

[CME]
workspace = default
last_used_db = smb
pwn3d_label = Pwn3d!

[BloodHound]
bh_enabled = False
bh_uri = 127.0.0.1
bh_port = 7687
bh_user = neo4j
bh_pass = neo4j

[Empire]
api_host = 127.0.0.1
api_port = 1337
username = empireadmin
password = Password123!

[Metasploit]
rpc_host = 127.0.0.1
rpc_port = 55552
password = abc123

yet the config parser says the BloodHound section doesn't exist when it's is and the config file is at the right place.

Crackmapexec info

  • OS: ArchLinux
  • Version of CME 5.2.3
  • Installed from apt or using latest release ? last commit (780, e9bcd09)

Solution

~/.cme/cme.conf was set too but without [BloodHound] and have precedence over /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/cme/data/cme.conf

PS : I log this just as knowledge base.

~/.cme/cme.conf is the one and only one :)

/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/cme/data/cme.conf is the default config when you install cme and you don't have a conf in ~/.cme/cme.conf the conf will be copied in to ~/.cme/cme.conf. So if you modify /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/cme/data/cme.conf, just delete the ~/.cme/cme.conf and relaunch cme
