Java Chains is a self-hosted web platform for generating Java exploitation payloads, aimed at security researchers. It supports common Java payload generation plus JNDI, FakeMySQL, and JRMP testing through a web interface and bundled services.

Use cases

  • generate java deserialization payloads for pentests
  • test jndi injection vulnerabilities
  • spin up a fake mysql server for exploitation testing
  • run a jrmp listener during security assessments
  • generate memory shell payloads for java apps

When to choose

  • you are a security researcher testing java applications for deserialization or JNDI vulnerabilities
  • you need an integrated platform with JNDI/LDAP/RMI/FakeMySQL/JRMP services in one tool
  • you want a web UI instead of assembling individual exploit tools

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose vulnerability scanner rather than a payload generation tool
  • you require a project with an explicit open-source license for commercial use
  • you are not working on java-specific security testing
