ronin-recon
Description
ronin-recon is a micro-framework and tool for performing reconnaissance. ronin-recon uses multiple workers which process different value types (ex: IP, host, URL, etc) and produce new values. ronin-recon contains built-in recon workers and supports loading additional 3rd-party workers from Ruby files or 3rd-party git repositories. ronin-recon has a unique queue design and uses asynchronous I/O to maximize efficiency.
Features
- Uses asynchronous I/O and fibers.
- Supports defining recon modules as plain old Ruby class.
- Provides built-in recon workers for:
- IP range enumeration.
- DNS lookup of host-names.
- Querying nameservers.
- Querying mailservers.
- DNS reverse lookup of IP addresses.
- DNS SRV record enumeration.
- DNS subdomain enumeration.
- Service/port scanning with
nmap
. - Enumerates the Common Name (
CN
) andsubjectAltName
s within all SSL/TLS certificates. - Web spidering.
- HTTP directory enumeration.
- Supports loading additional recon modules from Ruby files or from installed 3rd-party git repositories.
- Builds a network graph of all discovered assets.
- Provides a simple CLI for listing workers or performing recon.
- Supports many different output file formats:
- Supports automatically saving recon results into ronin-db.
Anti-Features
- Does not require API keys to run.
- Not just a script that runs a bunch of other recon tools.
- Does not use AI.

Summary: Looks up the IPs of a host-name
Description:
Resolves the IP addresses of domains, host names, nameservers,
and mailservers.
Accepts:
* domains
* hosts
* nameservers
* mailservers
Outputs:
* IP address
Intensity: passive
Run the recon engine on a single domain:
$ ronin-recon run example.com
Run the recon engine on a single host-name:
$ ronin-recon run www.example.com
Run the recon engine on a single IP address:
$ ronin-recon run 1.1.1.1
Run the recon engine on an IP range:
$ ronin-recon run 1.1.1.1/24
Run the recon engine on multiple targets:
$ ronin-recon run example1.com example2.com secret.foo.example1.com secret.bar.example2.com 1.1.1.1/24
Run the recon engine and ignore specific hosts, IPs, URLs, etc.:
$ ronin-recon run --ignore staging.example.com example.com
Save the recon results to a plain-text file:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.txt example.com
Save the recon results to a directory of multiple plain-text files:
$ ronin-recon run -o output_dir example.com
Save the recon results to a CSV file:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.csv example.com
Save the recon results to a JSON file:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.json example.com
Save the recon results to a NDJSON file:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.ndjson example.com
Save the recon results to a PNG image:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.png example.com
Save the recon results to a SVG image:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.svg example.com
Save the recon results to a PDF image:
$ ronin-recon run -o output.pdf example.com
Generate a boilerplate recon worker file, with some custom information:
$ ronin-recon new example_worker.rb \
--author Postmodern \
--description "This is an example."
Generate a ronin repository of your own recon workers:
$ ronin-repos new my-repo
$ cd my-repo/
$ mkdir recon
$ ronin-recon new recon/my_recon.rb \
--author You \
--description "This is my recon worker."
$ vim recon/my_recon.rb
$ git add recon/my_recon.rb
$ git commit
$ git push
Examples
Defining a custom recon worker:
require 'ronin/recon/worker'
module Ronin
module Recon
module DNS
class FooBar
register 'dns/foo_bar'
summary 'My DNS recon technique'
description <<~DESC
This recon worker uses the foo-bar technique.
Bla bla bla bla.
DESC
author 'John Smith', email: '...'
accepts Domain
outputs Host
intensity :passive
param :wordlist, String, desc: 'Optional wordlist to use'
def process(value)
# ...
yield Host.new(discovered_host_name)
# ...
end
end
end
end
end
Manually running the recon engine:
require 'ronin/recon/engine'
domain = Ronin::Recon::Values::Domain.new('github.com')
Ronin::Recon::Engine.run([domain], max_depth: 3) do |value,parent|
case value
when Ronin::Recon::Values::Domain
puts "Found domain #{value} for #{parent}"
when Ronin::Recon::Values::Nameserver
puts "Found nameserver #{value} for #{parent}"
when Ronin::Recon::Values::Mailserver
puts "Found mailserver #{value} for #{parent}"
when Ronin::Recon::Values::Host
puts "Found host #{value} for #{parent}"
when Ronin::Recon::Values::IP
puts "Found IP address #{value} for #{parent}"
end
end
