kandi X-RAY | SemiAutoRecon Summary
SemiAutoRecon is a multi-threaded network reconnaissance tool which performs semi-automated enumeration of services. It is intended as a time-saving tool for use in CTFs and other penetration testing environments (e.g. OSCP). It is most definitely not useful in real-world engagements. The tool works by firstly performing port scans / service detection scans (with explicit permission from the user). From those initial results, the tool will launch further enumeration scans of those services using a number of different tools (with explicit permission from the user). For example, if HTTP is found, feroxbuster will be launched (as well as many others), provided the user gives permission. Everything in the tool is highly configurable. The default configuration performs no automated exploitation to keep the tool in line with OSCP exam rules. If you wish to add semi-automatic exploit tools to the configuration, you do so at your own risk. The author will not be held responsible for negative actions that result from the mis-use of this tool.

QUESTION
I have not, but shall DAST* security test, out of curiosity, an IoT device; Nodemcu esp8266 www server I built. It's showing a HTML page (on a mobile phone for example) that allows to control and interact with a camera module and a A/C relay. With it I can for example show images captured in the camera I even think it has some image recognition built in, and I can switch on and off a relay for electrical current to a light bulb (110/220v A/C power)
Before I start pentest I though I better start thinking of what types of exploits one would be able to find and detect? Which sinister exploits I will be able to find, or rather ought be able to find given a proper pentest exercise? (And if I do not find exploits, my approach to the pentest of the Iot might be wrong)
I ponder it might be a totally pointless exercise since the esp8266 www server (or rather its LUA programming libraries) might not have any security built into it, so basically it is "open doors" and everything with it is unsafe ?
The test report might just conclude what I can foresee be that the the "user input needs to be sanitized"?
Anyone have any idea what such pentest of a generic IoT device generally reports? Maybe it is possible to crash or reset the IoT device? Buffer overruns, XXS, call own code ?
I might use ZAP or Burpsuite or similar DAST security test tool.
- I could of course SAST test it instead, or too, but I think it will be hard to find a static code analyzer for the NodeMCU libraries and NUA scripting language easily ? I found some references here though: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8227299 but it seems to be a long read.
So if someone just have a short answer what to expect in a DAST scan/pentest , it would be much appreciated.
Stay safe and secure out there ! Zombieboy
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-08 at 01:04I do my vulnerability scanning with OpenVAS (I assume this is what you mean by pentesting?). I am not aware of any IOT focused Tools.
If your server is running on esp8266, i would imagine that there is no much room for authentication and encryption of http traffic, but correct me if i am wrong).
Vulnerability Scan results might show things like unencrypted http traffic, credentials transmitted in cleartext (if you have any credentials fields in the pages served by the web server) etc. Depending on if there is encryption, you might also see weak encryption findings.
You might get some false positives on your lua webserver reacting like other known webservers when exploits are applied. I have seen this kind of false positive specially on DoS vulnerabilities when a vulnerability scan is testing a vulnerability and the server becomes unresponsive. Depending on how invasive your vulnerability scanner is, you might get a lot of false positives for DoS on such a constrained platform.

Install SemiAutoRecon
It is recommended you use pipx to install SemiAutoRecon. pipx will install SemiAutoRecon in it's own virtual environment, and make it available in the global context, avoiding conflicting package dependencies and the resulting instability. First, install pipx using the following commands:. You will have to re-source your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc file (or open a new tab) after running these commands in order to use pipx.
Alternatively you can use pip to install SemiAutoRecon using the following command:. Note that if you want to run SemiAutoRecon using sudo (required for faster SYN scanning and UDP scanning), you will have to run the above command as the root user (or using sudo). Similarly to pipx, if installed using pip you can run SemiAutoRecon by simply executing semiautorecon.
If you'd prefer not to use pip or pipx, you can always still install and execute semiautorecon.py manually as a script. From within the SemiAutoRecon directory, install the dependencies:.
