Loading vulnerability…
Apache Axis2, as deployed in products such as SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.2 and CA ARCserve D2D r15, contains a default password ('axis2') for the admin account. This default credential can be used by remote attackers to authenticate to the Axis2 administrative interface and upload malicious web services, leading to arbitrary code execution on the affected system.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (axis2_deployer.rb) that exploits an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the Apache Axis2 Web Admin Module and SAP BusinessObjects (CVE-2010-0219). The exploit works by logging into the Axis2 admin interface (default credentials: admin/axis2), uploading a malicious Java JAR file as a web service via a SOAP request, and then executing arbitrary code on the server. The module supports multiple platforms (Java, Windows, Linux) and leverages Metasploit's payload system to deliver and execute the attacker's code. The main endpoints targeted are the Axis2 admin login and upload interfaces, typically accessible at /axis2-admin/login and /axis2-admin/upload (or /dswsbobje/axis2-admin/login for SAP BusinessObjects). The exploit is weaponized, as it is part of the Metasploit framework and allows for customizable payloads.
This repository contains a single Python exploit script targeting Apache Axis2 servers with the admin interface enabled. The script automates the process of logging in to the Axis2 admin panel (using default credentials), uploading a malicious AAR file (webshell.aar), and deploying a webshell (webshell.jsp) on the server. It then attempts to execute commands via the uploaded service and locates the webshell's path for further access. The exploit requires the attacker to supply the target URL and have the webshell.aar file present. The script demonstrates a full exploitation chain: authentication bypass (if default credentials are used), file upload, remote code execution, and webshell deployment. The main attack vector is network-based, exploiting exposed Axis2 admin interfaces. The endpoints used are all HTTP(S) requests to the Axis2 admin and services paths. The code is operational and can be used for real-world exploitation if the target is vulnerable.
