Action: post_response
The contents of the JSON message from the agent to Mythic when posting tasking responses is as follows:
Base64( CallbackUUID + JSON(
{
"action": "post_response",
"responses": [
{
"task_id": "uuid of task",
... response message (see below)
},
{
"task_id": "uuid of task",
... response message (see below)
}
], //if we were passing messages on behalf of other agents
"delegates": [
{"message": agentMessage, "c2_profile": "ProfileName", "uuid": "uuid here"},
{"message": agentMessage, "c2_profile": "ProfileName", "uuid": "uuid here"}
]
}
)
)
There are two things to note here:
responses- This parameter is a list of all the responses for each tasking.- For each element in the responses array, we have a dictionary of information about the response. We also have a
task_idfield to indicate which task this response is for. After that though, comes the actual response output from the task.- If you don't want to hook a certain feature (like sending keystrokes, downloading files, creating artifacts, etc), but just want to return output to the user, the response section can be as simple as:
{"task_id": "uuid of task", "user_output": "output of task here"}
- Each response style is described in Hooking Features. The format described in each of the Hooking features sections replaces the
... response messagepiece above- To continue adding to that JSON response, you can indicate that a command is finished by adding
"completed": trueor indicate that there was an error with"status": "error".
delegates- This parameter is not required, but allows for an agent to forward on messages from other callbacks. This is the peer-to-peer scenario where inner messages are passed externally by the egress point. Each of these messages is a self-contained "Agent Message".
Mythic responds with the following message format for post_response requests:
Base64( CallbackUUID + JSON(
{
"action": "post_response",
"responses": [
{
"task_id": UUID,
"status": "success" or "error",
"error": 'error message if it exists'
}
],
//if we were passing messages on behalf of other agents
"delegates": [
{"message": agentMessage, "c2_profile": "ProfileName", "uuid": "uuid here"},
{"message": agentMessage, "c2_profile": "ProfileName", "uuid": "uuid here"}
]
}
)
)
There are two things to note here:
responses- This parameter is always a list and contains a success or error + error message for each task that was responded to.delegates- This parameter contains any responses for the messages that came through in the first message
