Description Determining the identity of a webserver is a hard problem. One consistant method is to ask the webserver. Unfortunately there's no promise the server will respond honestly.
ipscanner is written as a tool to provide a best guess about webservers based on header response.
ipscanner is written for python3, but may work with some versions of python2.
ipscanner is written for OSX and linux enviornments running python.
To install, unzip the package and run
make install
To uninstall
make uninstall
To clean build folders
make clean
For other make targets see makefile
Example:
ipscanner --servers nginx --csv ip_example_file.txt
Expected Result:
URL: http://159.89.34.233 ServerType: nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu) Listable: False
URL: http://159.89.34.233/list/ ServerType: nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu) Listable: True
URL: http://159.89.34.233/nolist/ ServerType: nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu) Listable: False
--ips [IPS [IPS ...]]
ips to be scanned,as comma separated list without
protocol(http/s) (default: None)
--json Output results as Json (default: False)
--all Show results for all server types. (default: False)
--verbose Verbose output for debugging (default: False)
--servers [SERVERS [SERVERS ...]]
Define Server types in comma separated list
Ex:--servers nginx, nginx/1, IIS (default: ['nginx/1.2','IIS/7.0'])
Tests are run using pytest.
All test files are located in the tests directory and must begin with test_
All tests must pass before install.
- Regarding using sudo for install: sudo for install of python projects is less than ideal. A better alternative would be building the project inside a virtual enviornment or container such as docker.
