A proof-of-concept tool for generating payloads that exploit unsafe .NET object deserialization.
ysoserial.net is a collection of utilities and property-oriented programming "gadget chains" discovered in common .NET libraries that can, under the right conditions, exploit .NET applications performing unsafe deserialization of objects. The main driver program takes a user-specified command and wraps it in the user-specified gadget chain, then serializes these objects to stdout. When an application with the required gadgets on the classpath unsafely deserializes this data, the chain will automatically be invoked and cause the command to be executed on the application host.
It should be noted that the vulnerability lies in the application performing unsafe deserialization and NOT in having gadgets on the classpath.

$ ./ysoserial -h
ysoserial.net generates deserialization payloads for a variety of .NET formatters.
Available formatters:
ActivitySurrogateSelector (ActivitySurrogateSelector gadget by James Forshaw. This gadget ignores the command parameter and executes the constructor of ExploitClass class.)
Formatters:
BinaryFormatter
ObjectStateFormatter
SoapFormatter
LosFormatter
ObjectDataProvider (ObjectDataProvider Gadget by Oleksandr Mirosh and Alvaro Munoz)
Formatters:
Json.Net
FastJson
JavaScriptSerializer
XmlSerializer
DataContractSerializer
PSObject (PSObject Gadget by Oleksandr Mirosh and Alvaro Munoz. Target must run a system not patched for CVE-2017-8565 (Published: 07/11/2017))
Formatters:
BinaryFormatter
ObjectStateFormatter
SoapFormatter
NetDataContractSerializer
LosFormatter
TypeConfuseDelegate (TypeConfuseDelegate gadget by James Forshaw)
Formatters:
BinaryFormatter
ObjectStateFormatter
NetDataContractSerializer
LosFormatter
WindowsIdentity (WindowsIdentity Gadget by Levi Broderick)
Formatters:
BinaryFormatter
Json.Net
DataContractSerializer
Usage: ysoserial.exe [options]
Options:
-o, --output=VALUE the output format (raw|base64).
-g, --gadget=VALUE the gadget chain.
-f, --formatter=VALUE the formatter.
-c, --command=VALUE the command to be executed.
-t, --test whether to run payload locally. Default: false
-h, --help show this message and exit
Note: XmlSerializer and DataContractSerializer formatters generate a wrapper Xml format including the expected type on the "type" attribute of the root node, as used, for example, in DotNetNuke. You may need to modify the generated xml based on how XmlSerializer gets the expected type in your case.
