NAME

Masscan::Scanner - A Perl module which helps in using the masscan port scanner.

VERSION

version 20200329.150259

SYNOPSIS

    use Masscan::Scanner;

    my @hosts     = qw(::1 127.0.0.1);
    my @ports     = qw(22 80 443 1-100);
    my @arguments = qw(--banners);

    my $mas = Masscan::Scanner->new(hosts => \@hosts, ports => \@ports, arguments => \@arguments);

    # Add extra hosts or ports
    $mas->add_host('10.0.0.1');
    $mas->add_host('10.0.0.0/24');
    $mas->add_port(25);
    $mas->add_port(110);

    # Can add port ranges too
    $mas->add_port('1024-2048');
    $mas->add_port('3000-65535');

    # Can add domains but will incur a performance penalty hence IP(s) and CIDR(s) recommended.
    # When a domain is added to the list of hosts to be scanned this module will attempt to
    # resolve all of the A records for the domain name provided and then add the IP(s) to the
    # scan list.
    $mas->add_host('averna.id.au');
    $mas->add_host('duckduckgo.com');

    # It is usually required that masscan is run as a privilaged user.
    # Obviously this module can be successfully run as the root user.
    # However, if this is being run by an unprivilaged user then sudo can be enabled.
    #
    # PLEASE NOTE: This module assumes the user can run the masscan command without
    # providing their password. Usually this is achieved by permitting the user to
    # run masscan within the /etc/sudoers file like so:a
    #
    # In /etc/sudoers: user averna = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/masscan
    $mas->sudo(1);

    # Turn on verbose mode
    # Default is off
    $mas->verbose(1);

    # Add extra masscan arguments
    $mas->add_argument('--rate 100000');

    # Set the full path to masscan binary
    # Default is the module will automatically find the binary full path if it's
    # withing the users environment path.
    $mas->binary('/usr/bin/masscan');

    # Set the name servers to be used for DNS resolution
    # Default is to use a list of public DNS servers.
    $mas->name_servers(['192.168.0.100', '192.168.0.101']);

    # Will initiate the masscan.
    # If the scan is successful returns True otherwise returns False.
    my $scan = $mas->scan;

    # Returns the scan results
    my $res = $mas->scan_results if ($scan);

METHODS

add_host

    This method allows the addition of a host to the host list to be scaned.

    my $mas = Masscan::Scanner->new();
    $mas->add_host('127.0.0.1');

add_port

    This method allows the addition of a port or port range to the port list to be scaned.

    my $mas = Masscan::Scanner->new();
    $mas->add_port(443);
    $mas->add_port('1-65535');

add_argument

    This method allows the addition of masscan command line arguments.

    my $mas = Masscan::Scanner->new(hosts => ['127.0.0.1', '10.0.0.1'], ports => [80. 443]);
    $mas->add_argument('--banners');
    $mas->add_argument('--rate 100000');

scan

    Will initiate the scan of what hosts & ports have been provided.
    Returns true fi the scan was successful otherwise returns false.

    my $mas = Masscan::Scanner->new();
    $mas->hosts(['127.0.0.1', '::1']);
    $mas->ports(['22', '80', '443']);
    $mas->add_port('1024');

    $mas->scan;

scan_results

    Returns the result of the masscan as a Perl data structure.

    my $mas = Masscan::Scanner->new();
    $mas->hosts(['127.0.0.1', '::1']);
    $mas->ports(['22', '80', '443']);
    $mas->add_port('1024');

    my $scan = $mas->scan;

    if ($scan)
    {
        my $res = $mas->scan_results;
    }

SCAN RESULTS

    The scan_results method returns a data structure like so:

    {
        'scan_results' => [
                              {
