Vulnerable Application

Description

This module takes advantage of OSGi consoles exposed by some Java-based middleware servers.

The OSGi console is a telnet-based server that can be used for remote debugging and dynamic loading/removal of Java bundles running on an OSGi based server.

Test setup

Linux environment

Follow these steps to run the vulnerable application on a Linux host:

  1. Create a test environment directory mkdir testenv && cd testenv

  2. Download the setup script wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/QKaiser/66c8a618eef2a7801c0bbb1aa43d724a/raw/e098f6ea31717311bd6ce5b3be94744dddfc2388/setup.sh

  3. Set appropriate permission chmod +x setup.sh

  4. Execute setup script ./setup.sh

  5. Launch the vulnerable application with this command so it listens on port TCP/5555 java -jar org.eclipse.osgi.jar -console 5555

  6. Verify that the server is running, you should be prompted with osgi> telnet localhost 5555

  7. From the telnet console, enable the second second server. This one listens on port 2019 by default. Set the IP to an address linked to an external interface if attacker machine is on another host. telnetd --ip=127.0.0.1 start

Windows environment

Follow these steps to run the vulnerable application on a Windows host:

  1. Download the Eclipse Equinox SDK from https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/equinox/drops/R-Oxygen.2-201711300510/equinox-SDK-Oxygen.2.zip&r=1

  2. Create a test directory. Let's name it osgi_test for clarity.

  3. Create a directory named configuration in osgi_test

  4. Create a file named config.ini in your configuration directory. The file should contain the following lines only:

osgi.bundles=org.eclipse.equinox.console@start, org.apache.felix.gogo.command@start, org.apache.felix.gogo.shell@start, org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime@start
eclipse.ignoreApp=true
osgi.noShutdown=true

  1. Create an empty plugins directory in osgi_test directory

  2. Extract plugins/org.apache.felix.gogo.command_(version).jar from the SDK as org.apache.felix.gogo.command.jar in osgi_test directory.

  3. Extract plugins/org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime_(version).jar from the SDK as org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.jar in osgi_test directory.

  4. Extract plugins/org.apache.felix.gogo.shell_(version).jar from the SDK as org.apache.felix.gogo.shell.jar in osgi_test directory.

  5. Extract plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.console_(version).jar from the SDK as org.eclipse.equinox.console.jar in osgi_test directory.

  6. Extract plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_(version).jar from the SDK as org.eclipse.osgi.jar in osgi_test directory.

  7. At the end of those steps, your osgi_test directory should contain the following items:

.
├── configuration
│   └── config.ini
├── org.apache.felix.gogo.command.jar
├── org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime.jar
├── org.apache.felix.gogo.shell.jar
├── org.eclipse.equinox.console.jar
├── org.eclipse.osgi.jar
└── plugins

  1. Launch the vulnerable application with this command so it listens on port TCP/5555 java -jar org.eclipse.osgi.jar -console 5555

  2. Verify that the server is running, you should be prompted with osgi> telnet localhost 5555

  3. From the telnet console, enable the second second server. This one listens on port 2019 by default. Set the IP to an address linked to an external interface if attacker machine is on another host. telnetd --ip=127.0.0.1 start

If you don't want to go through all those steps manually I recommend you to run the setup script on a Linux host, mount the directory on a Windows VM and start from step 11.

Verification Steps

You can verify the module against the vulnerable application with those steps:

  1. Install the application

  2. Start msfconsole

  3. Do: use exploit/multi/misc/osgi_console_exec

  4. Do: set RHOST 127.0.0.1

  5. Do: set RPORT 5555 or set RPORT 2019

  6. Do: check. The target should appear vulnerable.

  7. Do: set payload with the payload of your choosing.

  8. Do: run

  9. You should get a shell.

Options

TIME_WAIT

Time to wait for payload to be executed. The default value is set to 20 seconds.
