Description

Following the discussion on #1224, this change extends --generate-st so you can request a normal service ticket for any SPN (TGT + getKerberosTGS, same idea as Impacket’s getST.py) without --delegate, while keeping the existing S4U flow when --delegate is used. It also renames --delegate-spn to --spn, since that flag is no longer only about delegation, it is the SPN for both constrained-delegation/RBCD and plain ST export.

Checklist:

Insert an "x" inside the brackets for completed and relevant items (do not delete options)

  • I have ran Ruff against my changes (poetry: poetry run ruff check ., use --fix to automatically fix what it can)
  • I have added or updated the tests/e2e_commands.txt file if necessary (new modules or features are required to be added to the e2e tests)
  • If reliant on changes of third party dependencies, such as Impacket, dploot, lsassy, etc, I have linked the relevant PRs in those projects
  • I have linked relevant sources that describes the added technique (blog posts, documentation, etc)
  • I have performed a self-review of my own code (not an AI review)
  • I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas
  • I have made corresponding changes to the documentation (PR here: https://github.com/Pennyw0rth/NetExec-Wiki)
