#Nmap comes with 586 #NSE scripts. 148 of them are default (-sC) or version (-sV) scripts. The rest (438) have to be invoked directly or by category, so many folks don't use them. Here are my top 18 NSE scripts you should run in 2018: #DiscoveringNSE
#DiscoveringNSE 1/18: Fingerprint 100s of web apps and embedded devices with http-enum. Got Nikto? http-enum uses that fingerprint file, too. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts… Found a device with a web interface? Check for default creds with http-default-accounts. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 2/18: Import a list of targets to scan directly from the XML output of another scan with targets-xml. Lots of scripts that discover new addresses let you scan them in the same command with --script-args newtargets nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 3/18: Enumerate subdomains with dns-brute. Brute-force resolve common hostnames and SRV records against discovered DNS servers. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 4/18: All 38 scripts in the "broadcast and safe" categories. Find targets & discover services like ATAoE, DB2, DHCP, DNSSD, Dropbox, NetBIOS, OSPF2, UPnP, WPAD, and XDMCP on your local LAN: --script 'broadcast and safe' nmap.org/nsedoc/categor…
#DiscoveringNSE 5/18: Use Hollywood-style byte-by-byte bruteforce to find #IPv6 PTR DNS records with dns-ip6-arpa-scan. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 6/18: IPv6 network address ranges are absurdly large. Find and scan #IPv6 targets on your local LAN with targets-ipv6-multicast-* scripts. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 7/18: Find internal/private IP addresses leaked in some HTTP services and SSL certificates with http-bigip-cookie, ssl-cert-intaddr, http-internal-ip-disclosure nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 8/18: Hack the Gibson or other IBM mainframe systems with scripts by @mainframed767: tn3270-screen, tso-enum, tso-brute, vtam-enum, cics-info, cics-enum, cics-user-enum, cics-brute nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 9/18: Shameless self-promotion: I've done a bunch to improve auth support for #VNC scripts, adding Apple Remote Desktop, VeNCrypt, Tight, and TLS types. Enumerate with vnc-info, brute force with vnc-brute, grab screen info with vnc-title. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 10/18: Check general web security with fast scripts & deep spiders like http-security-headers, http-cookie-flags, http-crossdomainxml, http-csrf, http-errors, http-dombased-xss, http-fileupload-exploiter, http-rfi-spider nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 11/18: Formidible SSH security checks with new libssh2-based scripts: ssh-publickey-acceptance, ssh-run, ssh-auth-methods, ssh-brute nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 12/18: Enumerate all SMB versions with smb-protocols. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts… Then take advantage of awesome new SMB2 support by @calderpwn: smb2-vuln-uptime, smb2-capabilities, smb2-security-mode, smb2-time nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 13/18: The "external" NSE category contains scripts that query third-party services. Use shodan-api to query @shodanhq with Nmap: nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts… (Other fun external scripts: http-xssed, http-google-malware, targets-asn, asn-query)
#DiscoveringNSE 14/18: Geolocate your targets and plot them on @googlemaps, thanks to @mak_kolybabi. Run one of the ip-geolocation scripts along with ip-geolocation-map-kml (or use your API key with -google or -bing). nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 15/18: NSE has 73 #BruteForce credential testing scripts. Why not check out http-form-brute, which can handle all sorts of complicated CSRF and cookie schemes, and works great against Django, Wordpress, MediaWiki, Joomla, and Drupal. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 16/18: Spider a site for emails, IP addresses, #creditcard numbers, SSN, or write your own custom patterns with http-grep nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 17/18: Check for weak TLS/SSL configurations everywhere, even SMTP, RDP, VNC, etc. with ssl-enum-ciphers (Related scripts include ssl-dh-params, ssl-heartbleed, ssl-poodle, tls-ticketbleed, etc.) nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
#DiscoveringNSE 18/18: Keep up with the latest big #vulnerabilities like #Struts RCE (http-vuln-cve2017-5638), Intel #AMT privesc (http-vuln-cve2017-5689), MS17-010 (smb-vuln-ms17-010), and lots more. nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts…
