FIDIUS Architecture

Architecture

The Fidius System consists of different components connected to each other. The main Component is the Fidius-Core provided in this package. On one side the Fidius C&C-Server GUI connects to the Core with an XML-RPC Interface. On the other side the Core connects to msfdrb Server which provides and DRb interface to msf. The msfdrb Server is also provided in this package.

Metasploit

You will need a copy of the open source Metasploit Framework. It is also possible (and recommended) to get a more recent git copy:

$ git clone git://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework.git

Configuration

You need to setup your configuration. To do so, edit the file config/fidius.yml. There is an example configuration at config/fidius.yml.example and you should use that as a base for your own configuration. A full example configuration file is in config/fidius.yml.example-full

In that config file, you will find different sections:

  • databases – This is an ActiveRecord configuration. Depending on the database adapter, different key/value pairs must be defined.

    • In normal use the development subsection is used as the general database for this program.
    • The section evasiondb is used to store the data from the Fidius EvasionDB.

  • metasploit – This is the configuration for the interprocess communication between the architectures core and the Metasploit framework wrapper (msfdrb).

    • The keys :host and :port define the socket for the communication (you may change the values if you are concerned about an already used port).
    • With :path, you have to define the (full) path to your local Metasploit copy. This must point to the base path of the Metasploit framework (where the msfconsole et. al. are located).

  • xmlrpc – This is the configuration for the architectures XMLRPC interface. You need to define these keys:

    • :host and :port: The XMLRPC server will user these keys to create and listen on a socket for incoming connections.
    • The FIDIUS Command&Control server will try to connect to this server, so that configuration should match these values.

  • prelude – This is the configuration for the ids to test.

    • The key :host defines the IP address of the prelude host used in this network.

Gems needed

Run bundle to install all required gems:

$ gem install bundler $ bundle install

Setup Database

The database must be setup before using this software.

   $ rake db:migrate

Start your engines

To run the FIDIUS environments, you need to follow these steps. (Note: the servers may not act as "real" daemons, so you may run each of them in a separate terminal.)

  1. Start the Metasploit framework daemon.

    $ ./bin/msfdrbd start

  2. Start the architectures XMLRPC interface.

    $ ./bin/xmlserver start

  3. Start the FIDIUS Command&Control server.

    $ cd <path to fidius c&c server>
$ rails s

  4. Go to localhost:3000.
