CreateProcessAsUser error 1314

Question

Hi!

I want create a process under another user. So I use LogonUser and CreateProcessAsUser. But my problem is, that CreatePtocessAsUser always returns the errorcode 1314, which means "A required privilige is not held by the client". So my question is, what I am doing wrong? Or how can i give the priviliges to the handle? (I think the handle should have the privileges, or I am wrong?) Sorry for my english mistakes, but my english knowledge isn't the best :)

Plesase help if anyone knows how to correct my application.

This a part of my code.

STARTUPINFO StartInfo;
PROCESS_INFORMATION ProcInfo;
TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tp;
memset(&ProcInfo, 0, sizeof(ProcInfo));
memset(&StartInfo, 0 , sizeof(StartInfo)); 
StartInfo.cb = sizeof(StartInfo); 
HANDLE handle = NULL;

if (!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(),
TOKEN_ALL_ACCESS, &handle)) printf("\nOpenProcessError");

if (!LookupPrivilegeValue(NULL,SE_TCB_NAME,
//SE_TCB_NAME,
&tp.Privileges[0].Luid)) {
printf("\nLookupPriv error");
}

tp.PrivilegeCount = 1;
tp.Privileges[0].Attributes =
SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;//SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
if (!AdjustTokenPrivileges(handle, FALSE, &tp, 0, NULL, 0)) {
printf("\nAdjustToken error");
}

i = LogonUser(user, domain, password, LOGON32_LOGON_INTERACTIVE, LOGON32_PROVIDER_DEFAULT, &handle);
printf("\nLogonUser return  : %d",i);
i = GetLastError();
printf("\nLogonUser getlast : %d",i);
if (! ImpersonateLoggedOnUser(handle) ) printf("\nImpLoggedOnUser!");

i = CreateProcessAsUser(handle, "c:\\windows\\system32\\notepad.exe",NULL, NULL, NULL, true, 
CREATE_UNICODE_ENVIRONMENT |NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS | CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE, NULL, NULL, 
&StartInfo, &ProcInfo);    
printf("\nCreateProcessAsUser return  : %d",i);
i = GetLastError();
printf("\nCreateProcessAsUser getlast : %d",i);

CloseHandle(handle); 
CloseHandle(ProcInfo.hProcess); 
CloseHandle(ProcInfo.hThread);

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The local account that is running your app must have these privileges enabled in the Local Security Policy:

• Act as part of the operating system
• Create a token object
• Log on as a batch job

Answer 2

Your code adds the SE_TCB_NAME privilege to your token.

MSDN says "Typically, the process that calls the CreateProcessAsUser function must have the SE_ASSIGNPRIMARYTOKEN_NAME and SE_INCREASE_QUOTA_NAME privileges."
