Evil Java


amoeba

Recommended Posts

  • 4 weeks later...

I have played a little bit with the Evil Java applet and found that the possibility to lure someone is quite slim.. The user would have to be quite braindead for you to achieve the attack.

Just to make it clear I did not start a listener in Metasploit, nor did I test this in the "right side" of the pineapple. The reason for this is both that I'm not sure how to change the listener address in the attack, and I didn't want to create a BT VM in my laptop for this test.

This test is made from the WAN/LAN side. And MSE went totally crazy when I entered this site, so the test is run without any AV.

Firstly the site is.. well not too bad

But the warning speaks for itself

Especially when the AV is amok at this point.

That said, I have also tested a couple of java attacks from SET in backtrack, but I haven't found any that actually fools MSE. If anyone have any tips to what java attacks one might use without AV going insane would be great! Otherwise I don't see any point in using time on this.

In regards to what you can do with it is potentially own the users machine ;)

Get the executable signed by java/oracle :P

I'm afraid this is easier said than done.. I have no knowledge about this at all, but I'll bet that Oracle protects their signed java applets as good as they can.. However the java client on users computers is breached every now and then.. <_<

In my opinion I think most (normal) users have some kind of AV that the computer was originally delivered with, maybe not very god ones, but nevertheless I think that any attacks/pentests should be as stealth as possible i.e. no alert in AV.

People that are not using AV would be more aware and not install an applet like the one above, and user not aware would be aware because of the AV.

Ya I was completely kidding. No way would you ever want to do this on a Pentest, Unless you want Oracle to come down on you like a ton of bricks.

Still, how someone could make a signed java applet by Oracle? Do you need a java compagnie or...?
