IP4scout

IP4scout was born from the need of having a real-time feed of open ports. Instead of scanning Internet in one shot, it takes a ports list and probe random hosts at a predefined rate.

Scanning at 5kps for 10 ports, statistically has an average of 2 weeks between 2 hosts.

Leaks are random, so is this!

Features

SYN/ACK scanning
Blacklist support
Low memory/CPU footprint
Rate limiting

Usage

ip4scout random -h

Displays help for the random command (only implementation atm)

Flag	Description	Example
--blacklist-file	Loads a list of network (CIDR format) from a file	ip4scout random --blacklist-file=blacklist.txt
--source-port	Use this port a source for the SYN packets	ip4scout random --source-port=12345
--ports	List of ports to randomly send SYN packets to	ip4scout random --port=21,23,443
--rate-limit	Maximum number of packet per seconds	ip4scout random --rate-limit=1000
--disable-recommended	Disable ip4scout's built-in list of non-recommended networks	ipscout random --disable-recommended

Installation Instructions

From Binary

libpcap is required to run this software, check your distribution's package manager.

The installation is easy. You can download the pre-built binaries for your platform from the Releases page.

▶ apt-get install -y libpcap0.8
▶ chmod +x ip4scout-linux-64
▶ mv ip4scout-linux-64 /usr/local/bin/ip4scout

From Source

You're going to need libpcap's headers and go1.14+ to built ip4scout.

▶ apt-get install -y libpcap-dev
▶ GO111MODULE=on go get -u -v github.com/LeakIX/ip4scout/cmd/ip4scout
▶ ${GOPATH}/bin/ip4scout random -h

Running ip4scout

▶ ip4scout random -p 3304-3308,9200-9210 -r 10000 -b blacklist.txt

Handling output

ip4scout speaks l9format which is a JSON schema targeted at network recon.

l9filter allows translation between this format and plenty others.

Human output

▶ ip4scout random --ports=3306,9200,6379|tee results.json|l9filter transform -i l9 -o human

Will display human-readable results on stdout while saving the scan results to results.json

Hostport output

▶ ip4scout random -p 3304-3308,9200-9210|tee results.json|l9filter transform -i l9 -o hostport

Will display host:port results on stdout while saving the scan results to results.json
