This enumeration defines types of information that can be queried or set for tokens. The enumeration is partially documented in Windows Driver Kit and in Windows SDK.

Applicable to

Members

TokenUser (1)

Retrieves the user SID associated with the token.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_USER or SE_TOKEN_USER N/A
Required access TOKEN_QUERY N/A

Remarks

The user SID is considered enabled for granting access checks when its attributes don't include the SE_GROUP_USE_FOR_DENY_ONLY flag. Note that this behavior differs from token groups which explicitly require SE_GROUP_ENABLED flag to be set. In other words, an enabled user has attributes set to zero; a filtered/disabled user (see NtFilterToken) has attributes set to SE_GROUP_USE_FOR_DENY_ONLY.

TokenGroups (2)

Retrieves the list of SIDs (group membership) associated with the token.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_GROUPS N/A
Required access TOKEN_QUERY N/A

Remarks

A group SID is considered enabled for granting access checks when its attributes include SE_GROUP_ENABLED. A group SID is considered enabled for denying access checks when its attributes include either SE_GROUP_ENABLED or SE_GROUP_USE_FOR_DENY_ONLY.

See also

TokenPrivileges (3)

Retrieves the list of privileges present in the token.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_PRIVILEGES N/A
Required access TOKEN_QUERY N/A

Remarks

A privilege is considered enabled for access checks when its attributes include SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED.

See also

TokenOwner (4)

Retrieves or sets the default owner SID for newly created objects.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_OWNER TOKEN_OWNER
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT

Remarks

When changing the value, the provided SID must be either the user of the token or one of the groups that have the SE_GROUP_OWNER flag. Otherwise, the request fails with STATUS_INVALID_OWNER.

See also

TokenPrimaryGroup (5)

Retrieves or sets the default primary group SID for newly created objects.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_PRIMARY_GROUP TOKEN_PRIMARY_GROUP
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT

Remarks

When changing the value, the provided SID must be either the user or one of the groups of the token. Otherwise, the request fails with STATUS_INVALID_PRIMARY_GROUP.

See also

TokenDefaultDacl (6)

Retrieves or sets the default discretionary ACL (DACL) for newly created objects.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_DEFAULT_DACL TOKEN_DEFAULT_DACL
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT

See also

Required access TOKEN_QUERY N/A

TokenRestrictedSids (11)

Retrieves the list of restricting groups for the secondary access check added via NtFilterToken.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_GROUPS N/A

See also

TokenSessionId (12)

Retrieves or sets the session ID of the token.

Query Set
Type ULONG ULONG
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT | TOKEN_ADJUST_SESSIONID
Required privilege None SeTcbPrivilege

Remarks

Attempting to change the session ID of a token that is assigned as a primary process token results in STATUS_TOKEN_ALREADY_IN_USE.

TokenGroupsAndPrivileges (13)

Retrieves the list of SIDs, restricting SIDs, and privileges present in the token.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_GROUPS_AND_PRIVILEGES N/A
Required access TOKEN_QUERY N/A

See also

TokenSessionReference (14)

Allows releasing token's reference to the associated logon session.

Query Set
Type N/A ULONG (0) or BOOL (FALSE)

See also

TokenAuditPolicy (16)

TokenOrigin (17)

Query Set
Type TOKEN_ORIGIN TOKEN_ORIGIN
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT
Required privilege None SeTcbPrivilege

TokenElevationType (18)

Determines the elevation type of the logon session associated with the token.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_ELEVATION_TYPE N/A
Required access TOKEN_QUERY N/A

Remarks

This information is not per se a property of the token but rather its logon session.

Query Set
Type TOKEN_LINKED_TOKEN TOKEN_LINKED_TOKEN
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT | TOKEN_QUERY (on both handles)
Required privilege None SeCreateTokenPrivilege

Remarks

Querying this information class returns a primary token when the caller has SeTcbPrivilege enabled and an identification-level token otherwise.

Settings linked token requires both tokens to be primary and belong to logon sessions that are not already linked. The token passed in the first parameter to NtSetInformationToken provides the logon session to be marked as elevated while the token passed via the buffer becomes the limited logon session.

TokenElevation (20)

Determines whether the token is elevated by checking if it contains any sensitive groups (see RtlIsElevatedRid) or privileges.

Query Set

Type TOKEN_MANDATORY_LABEL TOKEN_MANDATORY_LABEL
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT
Required privilege None None to lower; SeTcbPrivilege to raise

Query Set
Type ULONG or BOOL ULONG or BOOL
Required access TOKEN_QUERY TOKEN_ADJUST_DEFAULT
