Nebula - Cloud C2 Framework, Which At The Moment Offers Reconnaissance, Enumeration, Exploitation, Post Exploitation On AWS


Nebula is a Cloud and (hopefully) DevOps Penetration Testing framework. It is build with modules for each provider and each functionality. As of April 2021, it only covers AWS, but is currently an ongoing project and hopefully will continue to grow to test GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, Docker, or automation engines like Ansible, Terraform, Chef, etc.


Currently covers:

  • S3 Bucket name bruteforce
  • IAM, EC2, S3 and Lambda Enumeration
  • IAM, EC2, and S3 exploitation
  • Custom HTTP User-Agent

There are currently 50 modules covering:

  • Reconnaissance
  • Enumeration
  • Exploit
  • Cleanup

Installation

Docker

From Dockerhub

Clone the Nebula Repo from Github and pull Nebula Docker image:

git clone https://github.com/gl4ssesbo1/Nebuladocker pull gl4ssesbo1/nebula:latest

and then run main.py through:

docker run -v Nebula:/app -ti gl4ssesbo1/nebula:latest main.py

Remember to not forget -v option, because it allows files to be saved on the system even after removing the docker image.


Using DockerFile

Clone the Nebula Repo from Github and build Docker image locally:

git clone https://github.com/gl4ssesbo1/Nebuladocker build -t nebula .

then run main.py through:

docker run -v Nebula:/app -ti nebula main.py

Remember to not forget -v option, because it allows files to be saved on the system even after removing the docker image.


Installed on System

Nebula is coded in python3.8 and tested on python3.8 and 3.9. It uses boto3 library to access AWS. To install, just install python 3.8+ and install libraries required from requirements.txt

python3.8 -m pip install -r requirements.txt 

Then install session-manager-plugin. This is needed for SSM modules:

curl "https://s3.amazonaws.com/session-manager-downloads/plugin/latest/ubuntu_64bit/session-manager-plugin.deb" -o "session-manager-plugin.deb"dpkg -i session-manager-plugin.deb

On windows devices, since less is not installed, I got one from https://github.com/jftuga/less-Windows The prebuilt binary is saved on directory less_binary. Just add that directory to the PATH environment variable and it will be ok.

Then just run main.py

python3.8 ./main.py

Using Modules

To use a module, just type use and the name of the module. The 3 brackets will have the name of the module.

(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>> use module enum/aws_iam_get_group(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>>

Options

Using options, we can list the information on the module:

If not supplied, all instances will be enumerated.(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>>

If not supplied, all instances will be enumerated.(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>>

Also unsetting them, using unset.

(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>> unset INSTANCE-ID(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>>

Running the module

To run the module, if it requires credentials, you will need to have imported a set of credentials with the permission required to run it. This is shown on a module's options as:

Needs Credentials: True-----------------------------

To run it, just enter run. Depending on the output, it will either show a pagainated view, or just print it. The pagination, uses less binary, which for Windows uses the binary from https://github.com/jftuga/less-Windows. A copy of the exe is on less_binary directory. The output is also saved on files on the workspace directory:

(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>> run[*] Content dumped on file './workspaces/work1/16_04_2021_18_16_48_ec2_enum_instances'.

Credentials

####Inputing Credentials Nebula can use both AccessKeyID + SecretKey combination and AccessKeyID + SecretKey+SessionKey combination to authenticate into the infratructure. To insert a set of credentials, use:

Credentials set. Use 'show credentials' to check them. [*] Currect credential profile set to 'test1'.Use 'show current-creds' to check them. ">
()()(AWS) >>> set credentials test1Profile Name: test1Access Key ID: A*********2Secret Key ID: a****************************7Region: us-west-3Do you also have a session token?[y/N][*] Credentials set. Use 'show credentials' to check them.[*] Currect credential profile set to 'test1'.Use 'show current-creds' to check them.

And you will get some inputs allowing you to set them. Session token can be added when entering credentials, by inputing y when asked Do you also have a session token?[y/N].

####Using Credentials To use another credential, just enter:

()()(AWS) >>> use credentials test1[*] Currect credential profile set to 'test1'.Use 'show current-creds' to check them.

####Current Credentials When you enter the credentials, they are automatically made the current credentials, meaning the ones you will authenticate with. To check the current credentials, use:

()()(AWS) >>> show current-creds{    "profile": "test1",    "access_key_id": "A*********2",    "secret_key": "a****************************7",    "region": "us-west-3"}

####Removing Credentials In case you don't want your credentials, you can can remove them using:

()()(AWS) >>> remove credentials test1You are about to remove credential 'test1'. Are you sure? [y/N] y

####Dumping and importing credentials In case you want your credentials saved on the machine, you can use:

()()(AWS) >>> dump credentials[*] Credentials dumped on file './credentials/16_04_2021_17_37_59'.

And they will be saved on a file containing the time and date of the dump on directory credentials on Nebula directory. To import them, just enter:

()()(AWS) >>> import credentials 16_04_2021_17_37_59()()(AWS) >>> show credentials[    {        "profile": "test1",        "access_key_id": "A*********2",        "secret_key": "a****************************7",        "region": "us-west-3"    }]

Workspaces

Nebula uses workspaces to save the output from every command. The output is saved as json data (except for s3_name_fuzzer which saves it as XML) on a folder created on directory workspaces.


Create Workspaces

To create one, enter:

()()(AWS) >>> create workspace work1[*] Workspace 'work1' created.[*] Current workspace set at 'work1'.(work1)()(AWS) >>> ls ./workspaces    Directory: C:\Users\***\Desktop\Nebula\workspacesMode                 LastWriteTime         Length Name----                 -------------         ------ ----d-----         4/16/2021   5:42 PM                work1-a----         4/16/2021   4:40 PM              0 __init__.py

When created, the first brackets will contain the name of the workspace you are working at. If you want to use an existing workspace, just type:

()()(AWS) >>> use workspace work1(work1)()(AWS) >>>

Workspaces are required to be used, so even if you are not using any at the moment, while running a module, it will ask you to create one with random name or to just create one with a custom name yourself.

()()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>> runA workspace is not configured. Workstation 'qxryiuct' will be created. Are you sure? [y/N] n[*] Create a workstation first using 'create workstation <workstation name>'.()()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>>

List workspaces

To get a list of workspaces, use:

(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>> show workspaces-----------------------------------Workspaces:-----------------------------------        work1(work1)()(enum/aws_ec2_enum_instances) >>>

Remove Workspaces

To remove a workspace, enter:

()()(AWS) >>> remove workspace work1[*] Are you sure you want to delete the workspace? [y/N] y()()(AWS) >>> show workspaces-----------------------------------Workspaces:-----------------------------------()()(AWS) >>>

User Agents

User agents can be set as linux ones, windows ones or custom. To show them, just use show.

()()(AWS) >>> set user-agent linuxUser Agent: Boto3/1.9.89 Python/3.8.1 Linux/4.1.2-34-generic was set()()(AWS) >>> show user-agent[*] User Agent is: Boto3/1.9.89 Python/3.8.1 Linux/4.1.2-34-generic()()(AWS) >>> set user-agent windowsUser Agent: Boto3/1.7.48 Python/3.9.1 Windows/7 Botocore/1.10.48 was set()()(AWS) >>> show user-agent[*] User Agent is: Boto3/1.7.48 Python/3.9.1 Windows/7 Botocore/1.10.48()()(AWS) >>> set user-agent customEnter the User-Agent you want: sthUser Agent: sth was set()()(AWS) >>> show user-agent[*] User Agent is: sth()()(AWS) >>>

To unset a user agent, enter:

()()(AWS) >>> unset user-agent[*] User Agent set to empty.

Which will have the system's user agent.
