This is a dockerized application that is vulnerable to the Spring4Shell vulnerability. Full Java source for the war is provided and modifiable, the war will get re-built whenever the docker image is built. There is nothing special about this application, it's a simple hello world that's based off Spring tutorials.

- Docker + Docker-Compose
- Python3 + requests library
- Clone the repository
- Run the container:
docker-compose up --build
- App should now be available at http://localhost:8080/helloworld/greeting
- Run the exploit.py script:
python3 .\exploit.py -url "http://localhost:8080/helloworld/greeting" -f shell
- Visit the created webshell! Modify the
cmd
GET parameter for your commands. (http://localhost:8080/shell.jsp
by default)
As of this writing, the container (possibly just Tomcat) must be restarted between exploitations. I'm actively trying to resolve this, PRs/DMs @Rezn0k are welcome!
