NMAP Cheat Sheet
Base nmap Syntax:
nmap [ScanType] [Options] {targets}
If no port range is specified, Nmap scans the 1,000 most popular ports.
-p <port1>-<port2>
: Scans a port range-p <port1>,<port2>,...
: Scans a port list-pU:53,U:110,T20-445
: Mix TCP and UDP-r
: Scans linearly (does not randomize ports)--top-ports <n>
: Scan n most popular ports-p-65535
: Leaving off the initial port in range makes Nmap scan start at port 1-p-
: Leaving off the end port in range makes Nmap scan all ports-F
: (Fast (limited port) scan)
Port Status
- Open: This indicates that an application is listening for connections on this port.
- Closed: This indicates that the probes were received but there is no application listening on this port.
- Filtered: This indicates that the probes were not received and the state could not be established. It also indicates that the probes are being dropped by some kind of filtering.
- Unfiltered: This indicates that the probes were received but a state could not be established.
- Open/Filtered: This indicates that the port was filtered or open but Nmap couldn’t establish the state.
- Closed/Filtered: This indicates that the port was filtered or closed but Nmap couldn’t establish the state.
Scan Types
-sn
: Probe only (host discovery, not port scan)-sS
: SYN Scan-sT
: TCP Connect Scan-sU
: UDP Scan-sV
: Version Scan-O
: Used for OS Detection/fingerprinting--scanflags
: Sets custom list of TCP usingURG ACK PSH RST SYN FIN
in any order
Probing Options
-Pn
: Don't probe (assume all hosts are up)-PB
: Default probe (TCP 80, 445 & ICMP)-PS<portlist>
: Checks if ssytems are online by probing TCP ports-PE
: Using ICMP Echo Request-PP
: Using ICMP Timestamp Request-PM
: Using ICMP Netmask Request
Timing Options
-T0
(Paranoid): Very slow, used for IDS evasion-T1
(Sneaky): Quite slow, used for IDS evasion-T2
(Polite): Slows down to consume less bandwidth, runs ~10 times slower than default-T3
(Normal): Default, a dynamic timing model based on target responsiveness-T4
(Aggressive): Assumes a fast and reliable network and may overwhelm targets-T5
(Insane): Very aggressive; will likely overwhelm targets or miss open ports
Fine-Grained Timing Options
--min-hostgroup/max-hostgroup <size>
: Parallel host scan group sizes--min-parallelism/max-parallelism <numprobes>
: Probes parallelization--min-rtt-timeout/max-rtttimeout/initial-rtt-timeout <time>
: Specifies probe round trip time.--max-retries <tries>
: Caps number of port scan probe retransmissions.--host-timeout <time>
: Gives up on target after this long--scan-delay/--max-scan-delay <time>
: Adjusts delay between probes--min-rate <number>
: Send packets no slower than<number>
per second--max-rate <number>
: Send packets no faster than<number>
per second
Nmap Scripting Engine
The full list of Nmap Scripting Engine scripts: http://nmap.org/nsedoc/
nmap -sC
runs default scripts...
Running individual or groups of scripts:
nmap --script=<ScriptName>| <ScriptCategory>|<ScriptDir>
Using the list of script arguments:
nmap --script-args=<Name1=Value1,...>
Updating the script database:
nmap --script-updatedb
Some particularly useful scripts include:
- dns-zone-transfer: Attempts to pull a zone file (AXFR) from a DNS server.
$ nmap --script dns-zonetransfer.nse --script-args dns-zonetransfer.domain=<domain> -p53 <hosts>
- http-robots.txt: Harvests robots.txt files from discovered web servers.
$ nmap --script http-robots.txt <hosts>
- smb-brute: Attempts to determine valid username and password combinations via automated guessing.
$ nmap --script smb-brute.nse -p445 <hosts>
- smb-psexec: Attempts to run a series of programs on the target machine, using credentials provided as scriptargs.
$ nmap --script smb-psexec.nse –script-args=smbuser=<username>,smbpass=<password>[,config=<config>] -p445 <hosts>
Nmap Scripting Engine Categories
The most common Nmap scripting engine categories:
- auth: Utilize credentials or bypass authentication on target hosts.
- broadcast: Discover hosts not included on command line by broadcasting on local network.
- brute: Attempt to guess passwords on target systems, for a variety of protocols, including http, SNMP, IAX, MySQL, VNC, etc.
- default: Scripts run automatically when -sC or -A are used.
- discovery: Try to learn more information about target hosts through public sources of information, SNMP, directory services, and more.
- dos: May cause denial of service conditions in target hosts.
- exploit: Attempt to exploit target systems.
- external: Interact with third-party systems not included in target list.
- fuzzer: Send unexpected input in network protocol fields.
- intrusive: May crash target, consume excessive resources, or otherwise impact target machines in a malicious fashion.
- malware: Look for signs of malware infection on the target hosts.
- safe: Designed not to impact target in a negative fashion.
- version: Measure the version of software or protocols on the target hosts.
- vul: Measure whether target systems have a known vulnerability.
Output Options
-oN
: Standard Nmap output-oG
: Greppable format-oX
: XML format-oA
: Generate Nmap, Greppable, and XML output files using basename for files
Additional Options
-n
: Disables reverse IP address lookups-6
: Uses IPv6 only-A
: Uses several features, including OS Detection, Version Detection, Script Scanning (default), and traceroute--reason
: Displays the reason Nmap thinks that the port is open, closed, or filtered
