Cloud edge

Lookup an IP to find the cloud provider and other details based on the provider's published JSON data

Cloud edge is a recon tool focused on exploring cloud service providers. It can be used for cloud attribution and forensics, pentesting, bug bounty, red teaming, or general R&D of cloud providers. Edge automatically loads Cloud Service Provider (CSP) published IP address ranges (AWS, Azure, GCP) JSON files and performs a prefix lookup based on the input IP address. Can be used to integrate in with other recon tooling. In a black box network pentest, edge quickly discovers which cloud CSP the customer is hosted with, or just double-verifying the scope for rules of engagement. Each of the big three CSPs (Amazon, Azure, GCP) publish a list of all of their IP prefixes and/or netblocks. In some cases this also includes the region/data center and service name. This can be useful for recon and this tool can quickly parse and do a lookup based on IP prefix.

Input and Output

Here are a few notes on how the tool works for inputs and output.

JSON files from cloud providers

When the tool runs, it automatically tries to download and load the three cloud provider IP address ranges JSON files to the working directory. Here is how it works:

By default it will attempt to download the three files from the URLs below unless you disable the automated download with (-nd) flag.

These three files are already included in this github repository, so downloading them will update any necessary changes. Once downloaded, you can run the tool with -nd to avoid superfluous downloads.

If found in working directory, all IP prefixes are loaded into memory. The cloud provider IP ranges json files always attempt to load from the working directory. Enabling the actual lookup is done with the -prefix flag.

When -dns mode is enabled, DNS lookups for both A and CNAME records are buffered without display until all DNS queries are finished. After the queries are finished, the output is displayed.

One idea is to initially run the tool to download all three files, making sure they are up-to-date. Then subsequent runs with -nd to improve performance and not download every run.

Default [INF] Mode enabled

By the default the output displays Informational messages starting with [INF]. This can be disabled with -silent flag. The output will look like this:

./edge -single 140.179.144.130
[INF] Single IP prefix lookup of 140.179.144.130
[INF] Matched IP [140.179.144.130] to Cloud Provider via prefix [AWS:140.179.144.128/25]
[INF] Matched IP [140.179.144.130] to Cloud Service [API_GATEWAY] and Region [cn-north-1]
140.179.144.130,Provider:AWS;Prefix:140.179.144.128/25;Region:cn-north-1;Service:API_GATEWAY

Informational messages will tell you if a record is found through a DNS 'A' record, DNS 'CNAME' record, Certificate (crt.sh), or if a prefix match is found. Prefix matches will tell you the cloud provider detected with the matching prefix, as well as the cloud service and region if applicable. Azure regions are not currently detected but AWS ones are.

Default CSV Output

With -dns or crt mode, the output is is sent by default to the console as comma delimited results. This makes it easy to use other tools to parse these results.

FQDN,IP,SOURCE,CNAME,DESCRIPTION
  • FQDN: This is the DNS lookup as a FQDN.
  • IP: This is the IP address returned from an A record if found.
  • SOURCE: This is the source of the lookup. Either A, CNAME, or Certificate.
  • CNAME: This returns the CNAME or ALIAS if the request is a CNAME.
  • DESCRIPTION: This returns any results from the IP address ranges description if -prefix is enabled.

With -prefix mode and either -ip or -nmap, the output is sent by default to the console as comma delimited results:

IP,DESCRIPTION

The IP is the IP address and the DESCRIPTION is the results from the IP address ranges lookup in the cloud provider IP address ranges JSON files, if applicable.

With -ptr mode and either ip or nmap, the output is sent by default to the console as comma delimited results:

IP,PTR

The IP is the IP address and the PTR is the results from the DNS PTR lookup if found.

IP Address files with -IP

The -ip flag signals to iterate through a list of IP addresses and can be used in prefix or ptr mode. When you run the tool with -ip <hosts.txt>, it expects each IP address in a separate line, and will iterate through the list doing lookups. Here is an example of the file contents:

user@host:~/demo$ cat ip.txt 
3.133.110.237
18.117.232.92
18.221.247.211
3.137.199.52

Nmap XML files

The -nmap flag signals to parse an nmap XML file. It will look for any host in the nmap scan file marked as "Up." For example, -nmap scan1.xml will tell the tool to parse the scan1.xml file and look for any hosts marked as Up by nmap. You then run it with either -ptr or -prefix to do a lookup of the IP.

Subdomain enumeration with -wordlist

The tool performs classic subdomain enumeration by iterating through a wordlist containing hostnames, one hostname per line. This is used in -dns mode with -wordlist <hosts.txt>. An example of what this looks like for the hosts.txt file:

user@host:~/demo$ more subdomains-5k.txt

This tool was inspired from many other tools and authors, including dnsrecon and gobuster. Yeah I know. Not a lot new here - just another subdomain enumeration tool. I just really wanted to learn Golang :-)
