# Exploit Title: Apache James Server 2.3.2 - Remote Command Execution (RCE) (Authenticated) (2)
# Date: 27/09/2021
# Exploit Author: shinris3n
# Vendor Homepage: http://james.apache.org/server/
# Software Link: http://ftp.ps.pl/pub/apache/james/server/apache-james-2.3.2.zip
# Version: Apache James Server 2.3.2
# Tested on: Ubuntu
# Info: This exploit works on default installation of Apache James Server 2.3.2
# Info: Example paths that will automatically execute payload on some action: /etc/bash_completion.d , /etc/pm/config.d

'''
This Python 3 implementation is based on the original (Python 2) exploit code developed by 
Jakub Palaczynski, Marcin Woloszyn, Maciej Grabiec.  The following modifications were made:

1 - Made required changes to print and socket commands for Python 3 compatibility.
1 - Changed the default payload to a basic bash reverse shell script and added a netcat option.
2 - Changed the command line syntax to allow user input of remote ip, local ip and listener port to correspond with #2.
3 - Added a payload that can be used for testing remote command execution and connectivity.
4 - Added payload and listener information output based on payload selection and user input.
5 - Added execution output clarifications and additional informational comments throughout the code.
