Router exploits shovel is an automated application generation tool for stack overflow types on wireless routers. The tool implements the key functions of exploits, it can adapt to the length of the data padding on the stack, generate the ROP chain, generate the encoded shellcode, and finally assemble them into a complete attack code. The user only needs to attach the attack code to the overflow location of the POC to complete the Exploit of the remote code execution.
The tool supports MIPSel and MIPSeb.Run on Ubuntu 16.04 64bit.
Automated Application Generation for Stack Overflow Types on Wireless Routers
Install
Make sure you have git, python3 and setuptools installed. Download source code from our Github:
$ git clone https://github.com/arthastang/Router-Exploit-Shovel.git
Set up environment and install dependencies:
$ cd Router-Exploit-Shovel/
$ python3 setup.py install
Usage
$ python3 Router_Exploit_Shovel.py -h
Usage: Router_Exploit_Shovel.py [options]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-b BINARYFILEPATH, --binaryFile=BINARYFILEPATH
input binary file path
--ba=BINARYBASEADDR, --binaryBaseAddr=BINARYBASEADDR
input binary base address,default=0x00400000
-l LIBRARYFILEPATH, --libraryFile=LIBRARYFILEPATH
input libc file path
--la=LIBRARYBASEADDR, --libraryBaseAddr=LIBRARYBASEADDR
input library base address,default=0x2aae2000
-o OVERFLOWFUNCTIONPOINTOFFSET, --overflowPoint=OVERFLOWFUNCTIONPOINTOFFSET
input overflow function point offset
--arch=ARCH input architecture of elf files,[little] or

ROP chain generation
This tool uses pattern to generate ROP chains. Extract patterns from common ROP exploitation procedure. Use regex matching to find available gadgets to fill up chain strings. Base64 encoding is to avoid duplicate character escapes. For example:
chainString: (gadget2)(gadget1)BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB(sleep)CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC(call_code)DDDD(stack_gadget)\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44\x22\x51\x44\x44
