# AD ACL / DACL abuse
## When it applies
You have domain creds and BloodHound shows your principal (or one you control) has a dangerous
**ACL edge** over another object — a user, group, computer, GPO, or the domain. These edges chain
into a path to Domain Admin without any CVE.
## Why it works
AD access control is a web of object permissions. Over-permissive ACLs let you *modify* other
principals: reset a password, add yourself to a privileged group, take ownership then rewrite the
DACL, or grant yourself DCSync — each turning a small right into control.
## Method — abuse per edge (BloodHound names the edge; it also shows the command)
