As the name might suggest AutoSploit attempts to automate the exploitation of remote hosts.

Targets can be collected automatically through Shodan, Censys or Zoomeye. But options to add your custom targets and host lists have been included as well. The available Metasploit modules have been selected to facilitate Remote Code Execution and to attempt to gain Reverse TCP Shells and/or Meterpreter sessions. Workspace, local host and local port for MSF facilitated back connections are configured by filling out the dialog that comes up before the exploit component is started

Operational Security Consideration

Receiving back connections on your local machine might not be the best idea from an OPSEC standpoint. Instead consider running this tool from a VPS that has all the dependencies required, available.

The new version of AutoSploit has a feature that allows you to set a proxy before you connect and a custom user-agent.

Installation

Installing AutoSploit is very simple, you can find the latest stable release here. You can also download the master branch as a zip or tarball or follow one of the below methods;

Cloning

sudo -s << EOF
git clone https://github.com/NullArray/Autosploit.git
cd AutoSploit
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
python2 autosploit.py
EOF

Docker

sudo -s << EOF
git clone https://github.com/NullArray/AutoSploit.git
cd AutoSploit
chmod +x install.sh
./installsh
cd AutoSploit/Docker
docker network create -d bridge haknet
docker run --network haknet --name msfdb -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=s3cr3t -d postgres
docker build -t autosploit .
docker run -it --network haknet -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 4444:4444 autosploit
EOF

On any Linux system the following should work;

git clone https://github.com/NullArray/AutoSploit
cd AutoSploit
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

If you want to run AutoSploit on a macOS system, AutoSploit is compatible with macOS, however, you have to be inside a virtual environment for it to run successfully. To do this, do the following;

sudo -s << '_EOF'
pip2 install virtualenv --user
git clone https://github.com/NullArray/AutoSploit.git
virtualenv <PATH-TO-YOUR-ENV>
source <PATH-TO-YOUR-ENV>/bin/activate
cd <PATH-TO-AUTOSPLOIT>
pip2 install -r requirements.txt
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
python autosploit.py
_EOF

More information on running Docker can be found here

Usage

Starting the program with python autosploit.py will open an AutoSploit terminal session. The options for which are as follows.

1. Usage And Legal
2. Gather Hosts
3. Custom Hosts
4. Add Single Host
5. View Gathered Hosts
6. Exploit Gathered Hosts
99. Quit

Choosing option 2 will prompt you for a platform specific search query. Enter IIS or Apache in example and choose a search engine. After doing so the collected hosts will be saved to be used in the Exploit component.

As of version 2.0 AutoSploit can be started with a number of command line arguments/flags as well. Type python autosploit.py -h to display all the options available to you. I’ve posted the options below as well for reference.

usage: python autosploit.py -[c|z|s|a] -[q] QUERY
                            [-C] WORKSPACE LHOST LPORT [-e] [--whitewash] PATH
                            [--ruby-exec] [--msf-path] PATH [-E] EXPLOIT-FILE-PATH
                            [--rand-agent] [--proxy] PROTO://IP:PORT [-P] AGENT

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

search engines:
  possible search engines to use

  -c, --censys          use censys.io as the search engine to gather hosts
  -z, --zoomeye         use zoomeye.org as the search engine to gather hosts
  -s, --shodan          use shodan.io as the search engine to gather hosts
  -a, --all             search all available search engines to gather hosts

requests:
  arguments to edit your requests

  --proxy PROTO://IP:PORT
                        run behind a proxy while performing the searches
  --random-agent        use a random HTTP User-Agent header
  -P USER-AGENT, --personal-agent USER-AGENT
                        pass a personal User-Agent to use for HTTP requests
  -q QUERY, --query QUERY
                        pass your search query

exploits:
  arguments to edit your exploits

  -E PATH, --exploit-file PATH
                        provide a text file to convert into JSON and save for
                        later use
  -C WORKSPACE LHOST LPORT, --config WORKSPACE LHOST LPORT
                        set the configuration for MSF (IE -C default 127.0.0.1
                        8080)
  -e, --exploit         start exploiting the already gathered hosts

misc arguments:
  arguments that don't fit anywhere else

  --ruby-exec           if you need to run the Ruby executable with MSF use
                        this
  --msf-path MSF-PATH   pass the path to your framework if it is not in your
                        ENV PATH
  --whitelist PATH      only exploit hosts listed in the whitelist file

If you want to run AutoSploit on a macOS system, AutoSploit is compatible with macOS, however, you have to be inside a virtual environment for it to run successfully. To do this, do the following;

sudo -s << '_EOF' 
pip2 install virtualenv --user

python autosploit.py

Dependencies

Note: All dependencies should be installed using the above installation method, however, if you find they are not:

AutoSploit depends on the following Python2.7 modules.

requests
psutil

Should you find you do not have these installed get them with pip like so.

pip install requests psutil

or

pip install -r requirements.txt

Since the program invokes functionality from the Metasploit Framework you need to have this installed also. Get it from Rapid7 by clicking here.
