pivotnacci

Pivot into the internal network by deploying HTTP agents. Pivotnacci allows you to create a socks server which communicates with HTTP agents. The architecture looks like the following:

This tool was inspired by the great reGeorg. However, it includes some improvements:

  • Support for balanced servers
  • Customizable polling interval, useful to reduce detection rates
  • Auto drop connections closed by a server
  • Modular and cleaner code
  • Installation through pip
  • Password-protected agents

Supported socks protocols

  • Socks 4
  • Socks 5
    • No authentication
    • User password
Download Tool
  • GSSAPI
  • Installation

    From python packages:

    root@kitploit:~
    pip3 install pivotnacci
    

    From repository:

    root@kitploit:~
    git clone https://github.com/blackarrowsec/pivotnacci.git
    cd pivotnacci/
    pip3 install -r requirements.txt # to avoid installing on the OS
    python3 setup.py install # to install on the OS
    

    Usage

    1. Upload the required agent (php, jsp or aspx) to a webserver
    2. Start the socks server once the agent is deployed
    3. Configure proxychains or any other proxy client (the default listening port for pivotnacci socks server is 1080)
    root@kitploit:~
    $ pivotnacci -h
    usage: pivotnacci [-h] [-s addr] [-p port] [--verbose] [--ack-message message]
                      [--password password] [--user-agent user_agent]
                      [--header header] [--proxy [protocol://]host[:port]]
                      [--type type] [--polling-interval milliseconds]
                      [--request-tries number] [--retry-interval milliseconds]
                      url
    
    Socks server for HTTP agents
    
    positional arguments:
      url                   The url of the agent
    
    optional arguments:
      -h, --help            show this help message and exit
      -s addr, --source addr
                            The default listening address (default: 127.0.0.1)
      -p port, --port port  The default listening port (default: 1080)
      --verbose, -v
      --ack-message message, -a message
                            Message returned by the agent web page (default:
                            Server Error 500 (Internal Error))
      --password password   Password to communicate with the agent (default: )
      --user-agent user_agent, -A user_agent
                            The User-Agent header sent to the agent (default:
                            pivotnacci/0.0.1)
      --header header, -H header
                            Send custom header. Specify in the form 'Name: Value'
                            (default: None)
      --proxy [protocol://]host[:port], -x [protocol://]host[:port]
                            Set the HTTP proxy to use.(Environment variables
                            HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY are also supported)
                            (default: None)
      --type type, -t type  To specify agent type in case is not automatically
                            detected. Options are ['php', 'jsp', 'aspx'] (default:
                            None)
      --polling-interval milliseconds
                            Interval to poll the agents (for recv operations)
                            (default: 100)
      --request-tries number
                            The number of retries for each request to an agent. To
                            use in case of balanced servers (default: 50)
      --retry-interval milliseconds
                            Interval to retry a failure request (due a balanced
                            server) (default: 100)
    

    Examples

    Using an agent with password s3cr3t (AGENT_PASSWORD variable must be modified at the agent side as well):

    root@kitploit:~
    pivotnacci  https://domain.com/agent.php --password "s3cr3t"
    

    Using a custom HTTP Host header and a custom CustomAgent User-Agent:

    root@kitploit:~
    pivotnacci  https://domain.com/agent.jsp -H 'Host: vhost.domain.com' -A 'CustomAgent'
    

    Setting a different agent message 418 I'm a teapot (ACK_MESSAGE variable must be modified at the agent side as well):

    root@kitploit:~
    pivotnacci https://domain.com/agent.aspx --ack-message "418 I'm a teapot"
    

    Reduce detection rate (e.g. WAF) by setting the polling interval to 2 seconds:

    root@kitploit:~
    pivotnacci  https://domain.com/agent.php --polling-interval 2000
