You can grab the full module on our github (weвЂ™ve also made a pull request to the master branch).

With just a few changes and some simplifications, we managed to get a working module to upload our choice of JSP command shell to a vulnerable Tomcat instance. This turned out to be much more fruitful (fruitier?). But, as it turns out that one does a ton of stuff we donвЂ™t need! The next approach was to take an existing JSP module, adobe_robohelper_authbypass, and go from there. So, now to build a metasploit module and take advantage of some of the more useful payloads the framework has to offer.Д«eing a Tomcat vulnerability, we decided to start with an existing Tomcat module, exploit/multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload and tweak it to our needs.

#APACHE TOMCAT VULNERABILITIES CODE#

Yep! Our proof of concept code and test environment both look to be in order. Are we actually working with a legitimate set-up?ДЄ 201 Response from our POC request to /1.jsp/ results in the jsp code executing server side, outputting вЂњhelloвЂќ to the browser. Our next step was to take the POC and test it out on our environment.

#APACHE TOMCAT VULNERABILITIES WINDOWS#

Our setup is as follows: Windows Server 212 R2 (Amazon AMI), Apache Tomcat 7.0.81, вЂњreadonlyвЂќ initialization variable set to вЂњfalseвЂќ. This was fairly straightforward to set up and a quick trip to the Apache Tomcat archives armed us with a vulnerable version (7.0.81). We first needed a vulnerable version of Tomcat running on a Windows server to test the POC. Since this exploit is fairly straightforward and can give us remote code execution on our engagements, we decided to test it out, then weaponize it in the form of a Metasploit module рџ™‚ This vulnerability allows an attacker to gain potentially privileged remote code execution on the system. A recent example of this is CVE-2017-12617, in which servers with PUTs enabled are subject to arbitrary JSP file uploads via specially crafted requests. On top of these issues, Apache Tomcat is often running as a System service, elevating its allure even further.Дespite this scrutiny by security professionals, we continue to see more vulnerabilities discovered.

With ample opportunities to exploit security misconfigurations in the management GUI (tomcat:tomcatвЂ¦.) or technical vulnerabilities, itвЂ™s no wonder attackers continue to pay attention to the platform.

#APACHE TOMCAT VULNERABILITIES UPGRADE#

Solution Upgrade to Apache Tomcat version 8.5.68 or later.Tomcat has been a staple target for penetration testers and malicious actors for years. (CVE-2021-33037) Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number. Specifically: - Tomcat incorrectly ignored the transfer encoding header if the client declared it would only accept an HTTP/1.0 response - Tomcat honoured the identify encoding and - Tomcat did not ensure that, if present, the chunked encoding was the final encoding. Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.6, 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.46 and 8.5.0 to 8.5.66 did not correctly parse the HTTP transfer-encoding request header in some circumstances leading to the possibility to request smuggling when used with a reverse proxy. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_8.5.68_security-8 advisory. Synopsis The remote Apache Tomcat server is affected by a vulnerability Description The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 8.5.68.
