Hack The Box Meetup Bypassing UAC with Fodhelper

Join us for the next session of HTB Meetup Beni Mellal, Morocco, where we take a hands-on look at bypassing Windows User Account Control (UAC) using the Fodhelper technique — a classic and still widely relevant privilege escalation method used in real-world red team engagements.
We'll walk through how the technique works under the hood, why it bypasses UAC's default consent flow, and how to apply it in practice.
