YAML Schema Modify - Add attribute to check if admin/root/required

[ghost]

A question was posed in the Atomic Channel about checking wether or not a test requires admin (Windows ) or root privileges.

I support this idea. Just need to think through where to put that check.
Update validation scripts
Retroactively update existing tests to have this added to all the existing test.

I think we’d do this as a Boolean field inside the windows executor.

What would you expect execution frameworks to do if they encountered that field being true?

I think we need Linux/Mac too, to incorporate root access/requirements

Executor's could be modified to check and filter to either include or exclude.

Executor's could also check current privileges and then branch based on true/false

I guess I would like to see it in the YAML for the test, rather than the executor.

I actually think since this already in the MITRE ATT&CK we could just pull in that attribute from the API.
"x_mitre_permissions_required": Attribute

I don't think we can used x_mitre_permissions_required because that is more focused on the technique rather than the specific test command being executed.
