# honeypot.rs
Honeypot that scopes [CVE-2023-46604 (Apache ActiveMQ RCE Vulnerability)](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-46604) and focused on getting Indicators of Compromise. This honeypot can be used in any Threat Intelligence infrastructure to get attacker's IP adresses, Post-Exploitation samples and malware samples. This information can be helpful to detect and prevent attacks in future.
# How it works?
In real case attacker sends specific packet to Apache ActiveMQ service. This packet contains ExceptionResponse with Class `org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext` and Message which contains XML payload url.

| _Attack Example_ |
Secondly, vulnerable service downloads XML payload which commonly contains RCE command.

|:--:|
| _XML Payload Example_ |
This honeypot simulates vulnerable Apache ActiveMQ service and extracts attacker's ip addresses, XML payload url and RCE command from XML payload. Then this information can be parsed from JSON.
Honeypot logs can be checked by path `logfile` that you specified in `Service.toml`.

Honeypot also creates JSON output with parsable indicators. You can specify path of `outfile` in `Service.toml`.

# Installation
Honeypot can be deployed on your own server (for example VPS or VDS) in docker variant.
### Configuration
Service configuration file `Service.toml` can be changed by your own:
```
service_ip = "0.0.0.0" # listen ip address
service_port = 61616 # port (default for Apache ActiveMQ 61616)
logfile = "logs/service.log" # main log file
outfile = "logs/out.json" # output json for parsing
api_enabled = false # enabled or disable api for downloading honeypot results (true/false)
api_ip = "0.0.0.0" # listen ip address for api
api_port = 9123 # port for api
api_user = "user" # user for api auth
api_password = "" # password for api auth
```
You can enable api if you want to have access to `out.json`. Results can be downloaded using curl:
```
curl -X POST http://<api_ip>:<api_port>/ --data 'username=<api_user>&password=<api_password>'
```
### Using docker
```
git clone https://github.com/mranv/honeypot.rs -b main
cd activemq-honeypot
docker compose up --build -d
```
You also should disable original Apache ActiveMQ (if exists) and make sure that configured port not used by another process. Service building can take some time.
You also can change `LevelFilter` to `Debug` in `main.rs` and get more helpful debug info
