Java signed applet Hack Windows 8 Java vulnerability

Purpose of this tutorial

In this tutorial we will look at how difficult it can be to hack modern operating systems. While you won't be getting the kind of results you were expecting, you will learn a lot here. The exploit will not work at first go, it will not work in the second go, it will eventually work, but we would have modified too many settings in the target OS to call it success. We will be using a pretty mainstream exploit here, the java signed applet exploit.
(Just in case you're new here. You need to have Kali Linux installed, as well as have some basic info about metasploit. Here is the collection of all tutorials. Read first few or maybe all. I write new posts assuming you've read the previous ones)

Hack any Windows Version

In the previous tutorials we have hacked Windows XP and tested a few Payloads and its features. In this tutorial, we will use a Java exploit to hack any Windows version. Now there are some things that you need to know-
  1. There are no 'type something on console and press enter' exploits for modern Operating Systems. They invest enough in security to patch any such vulnerabilities. 
  2. The modern operating systems have exploits where the user has to do something like click on a link, install some program, and in our case, allow java plugin to be used.
  3. The Operating systems are quite secure, however the applications installed by the users almost always have some bugs which can be exploited, and then by privilege escalation methods, you can get a administrator shell. Jave is widely used, and is, unfortunately, quite secure (but we will still use a  Java exploit here)
  4. If you have the latest OS and latest version of Java installed, then they already know how to deal with these kind of attacks and it won't work. We will use Windows 8 and Java 7 build 60 (I upgraded it today), and our exploit will not work. We will then see how to make it work. We will learn a lot of new things. Please follow along only if you have curiosity for knowledge, not just desire to hack.

Java Signed Applet Exploit (browser based exploit)

Some official words here, to help with your digestion-

This exploit dynamically creates a .jar file via the Msf::Exploit::Java mixin, then signs the it. The resultin
g signed applet is presented to the victim via a web page with an applet tag. The victim's JVM will pop a dialog asking if they trust the signed applet. On older versions the dialog will display the value of CERTCN in the "Publisher" line. Newer JVMs display "UNKNOWN" when the signature is not trusted (i.e., it's not signed by a trusted CA). The SigningCert option allows you to provide a trusted code signing cert, the values in which will override CERTCN. If SigningCert is not given, a randomly generated self-signed cert will be used. Either way, once the user clicks "run", the applet executes with full user permissions.

Follow these steps

On our Windows 8 machine

If you haven't installed Java then this is what you'll see.
If you have installed Java then this is what you'll see.


Now after you click run this time, you might end up seeing a dialog which blocked access to java plugin even after we allowed it.
If you are using an older version of Java, you might have gained access already, unless your antivirus detected the payload, which is basically a trojan (if you succeed here, a session will be created in metasploit, but it will be in background. See the end of tutorial to find out how to use that session and then come back here to see the scenario in case of Windows 8, there are things to learn) But it my case, now it's time to realize that we've taken a head on collision with a really secure operating system and the latest version of Java. Now, as I said, this will not work, but you can still give it your best shot.

Why won't it work

Java Sandbox

In technical terms : The java-sandbox allows you to securely execute untrusted code (for example, user generated scripts in scripting languages such as groovy or rhino) from within your application. It allows you to specify resources and classes that may be used by the code, thus, separating the execution from the application's execution environment. It allows to wrap execution environments in threads or even execute them remotely on different jvms.(sourceforge)

In less technical terms:In April, Oracle instituted a number of changes starting with Java 7u21. The new update introduced prompts warning users that an unsigned applet could potentially harm the user’s computer. This came months after Oracle changed Java’s default security settings from medium to high, essentially preventing unsigned applets from executing automatically, requiring instead a user to allow the applet to proceed. Developers must now sign their applets with a certificate from a trusted Certificate Authority. (threatpost)

In English : New versions of Java have an added feature known as Java sandbox. Whenever a java applet is loaded on a browser, it will firstly require user's permission to execute. After the user has given permission, the applet will load inside a sandbox (which is a runtime environment seperated from rest of the computer, like a cage, and the java applet is harmless as long as it is inside). That doesn't solve their problem though, as sandbox stops the Java applet to do much, thereby destroying the whole purpose, even for the genuine developers. So, Java restricts the unsigned applets from exercising much of their functionality, and only the signed applets can do anything. So, hats off to Oracle, for proving that even client side vulnerabilities are not that easy. And sorry to disappoint you guys, but I had to tell you how secure the modern operating systems are. Nevertheless, going to Java control panel, and security tab, will lead you to the conclusion that the Java security level is high by default. And even more mind boggling is the fact that the security levels are - medium, high, very high. Guess the days of 'low' security are gone. However, medium is just what we are looking for.
Sandbox is enabled in high level. 
Sandbox is disabled in medium level. That will solve our purpose here.
Now we opened our java applet again and this time a really dangerous looking security warning dialog came up. Nevertheless, we clicked on "I accept" and then run.
As if this wasn't enough. Windows had to interfere. I could almost hear Windows Defender saying, Java is good, but Microsoft still trusts it's own antivirus for security. Our exploit failed yet again. This time it was the antivirus.
You might have guessed, disable the antivirus.

Now, finally, I refreshed the URL, accepted the warning and allowed the applet to run. I got a new session on Metasploit. The sweet smell of success was highly diluted by the fact that we really rigged the game in our favour. In a real life scenario, you can't expect the AV to be disabled and the security settings set to anything other than the default value.

Conclusion

If you've followed along so far, you might be feeling disappointed. While the feeling is natural, it is quite unnecessary. A better way to look at it is the first step in real world pentesting. All this while we were dealing with non-existent scenarios. Old unpatched grandma's Windows XP machines. These don't exist in the real world. In reality we have to deal with strong defenses, limited rights, antiviruses, firewalls, etc. Soon you'll be writing your own exploits (okay not that soon), and evading firewalls and antiviruses (what we did here is not called evasion, you can't simply turn off antivirus protection like that as you don't have access to the computer). In the next few tutorials we'll see how to get around all the things we did and shouldn't have done (disabling AV and reducing Java protection level). There are things that can't be avoided (the target has to go to a URL containing the applet and allow it to run), but we will try to make things as real world as possible. We will also move to some non-traditional exploits, as their AV detection rate is much less. We will look into encryption and anti-virus evasion in detail. Lot of things need to be done. Just remember, you are in hand to hand combat with one of the most secure systems you'll come across, and it's not gonna be easy.
