PJL Honeypot

This is a very basic PJL or Jetdirect honeypot created as a byproduct of TUM's honeypot and malware analysis course.

When connecting to it via PRET, you probably won't notice a difference to other printers, and dropping PCL files will store them in a configurable directory (see usage).

The honeypot is a standalone Python 3 script and is contained in a single file, allowing you to drop it on your existing honeypots easily. Furthermore, you can use the Dockerfile to include it in your honeypot setup conveniently. Please refer to the docker-compose.yml for using the image within a compose environment.

Usage

# no args => shows usage
$ python3 jetdirect.py
usage: jetdirect.py PORT PCL_DIRECTORY [LOGFILE]

# use it e.g like this to
# - listen on port 9100
# - store printed pages in ./prints/
# - log to ./jetdirect.log
$ python3 jetdirect.py 9100 ./prints ./jetdirect.log

Additionally, there's a Makefile, which can be used to build and run the honeypot's Docker image:

# build the docker image
$ make build

# run the honeypot
$ make run

# remove the docker image
$ make clean

# connect to localhost via telnet
$ make jetdirect

Hacking

This honeypot is built around a commands dictionary, containing most commands specified in HP's PJL handbook. You can modify that dictionary to match your needs. Commands are traversed via the dictionary, thus INFO CONFIG will first go to the INFO dictionary, and then search the CONFIG key.

Once the honeypot finds a value, it'll interpret it. If it's a plain string, that's what will be sent back to the attacker. If it's a function or lambda, the first argument will be the command string passed in, so you can do your own processing.

The filesystem is stored in fs, a read-only dictionary-like structure, allowing traversal and file information. If you want to store actual files in there, simply add their contents via fs.add_file(), the "directories" will then be created automatically.
