Nmap

Host Discovery

  • Scan Type Example Command
  • ARP Scan sudo nmap -PR -sn MACHINE_IP/24
  • ICMP Echo Scan sudo nmap -PE -sn MACHINE_IP/24
  • ICMP Timestamp Scan sudo nmap -PP -sn MACHINE_IP/24
  • ICMP Address Mask Scan sudo nmap -PM -sn MACHINE_IP/24
  • TCP SYN Ping Scan sudo nmap -PS22,80,443 -sn MACHINE_IP/30
  • TCP ACK Ping Scan sudo nmap -PA22,80,443 -sn MACHINE_IP/30
  • UDP Ping Scan sudo nmap -PU53,161,162 -sn MACHINE_IP/30
  • Remember to add -sn if you are only interested in host discovery without port-scanning. Omitting -sn will let Nmap default to port-scanning the live hosts.

Option Purpose

  • -n no DNS lookup
  • -R reverse-DNS lookup for all hosts
  • -sn host discovery only

Port Scan Type Example Command

  • TCP Connect Scan nmap -sT MACHINE_IP
  • TCP SYN Scan sudo nmap -sS MACHINE_IP
  • UDP Scan sudo nmap -sU MACHINE_IP
  • These scan types should get you started discovering running TCP and UDP services on a target host.

Option Purpose

  • -p- all ports
  • -p1-1023 scan ports 1 to 1023
  • -F 100 most common ports
  • -r scan ports in consecutive order
  • -T<0-5> -T0 being the slowest and T5 the fastest
  • --max-rate 50 rate <= 50 packets/sec
  • --min-rate 15 rate >= 15 packets/sec
  • --min-parallelism 100 at least 100 probes in parallel

Nmap Results

  • Open: indicates that a service is listening on the specified port.
  • Closed: indicates that no service is listening on the specified port, although the port is accessible. By accessible, we mean that it is reachable and is not blocked by a firewall or other security appliances/programs.
  • Filtered: means that Nmap cannot determine if the port is open or closed because the port is not accessible. This state is usually due to a firewall preventing Nmap from reaching that port. Nmap’s packets may be blocked from reaching the port; alternatively, the responses are blocked from reaching Nmap’s host.
  • Unfiltered: means that Nmap cannot determine if the port is open or closed, although the port is accessible. This state is encountered when using an ACK scan -sA.
  • Open|Filtered: This means that Nmap cannot determine whether the port is open or filtered.
  • Closed|Filtered: This means that Nmap cannot decide whether a port is closed or filtered.

Nmap Advanced Scanning

Port Scan Type Example Command

  • TCP Null Scan sudo nmap -sN MACHINE_IP
  • TCP FIN Scan sudo nmap -sF MACHINE_IP
  • TCP Xmas Scan sudo nmap -sX MACHINE_IP
  • Three above scan types can be efficient when scanning a target behind a stateless (non-stateful) firewall. A stateless firewall will check if the incoming packet has the SYN flag set to detect a connection attempt. Using a flag combination that does not match the SYN packet makes it possible to deceive the firewall and reach the system behind it.
  • TCP Maimon Scan sudo nmap -sM MACHINE_IP
  • TCP ACK Scan sudo nmap -sA MACHINE_IP
  • TCP Window Scan sudo nmap -sW MACHINE_IP
  • Custom TCP Scan sudo nmap --scanflags URGACKPSHRSTSYNFIN MACHINE_IP
  • Spoofed Source IP sudo nmap -S SPOOFED_IP MACHINE_IP
  • Spoofed MAC Address --spoof-mac SPOOFED_MAC
  • Decoy Scan nmap -D DECOY_IP,ME MACHINE_IP
  • Idle (Zombie) Scan sudo nmap -sI ZOMBIE_IP MACHINE_IP
  • Fragment IP data into 8 bytes -f
  • Fragment IP data into 16 bytes -ff

Option Purpose

  • --source-port PORT_NUM specify source port number
  • --data-length NUM append random data to reach given length
  • These scan types rely on setting TCP flags in unexpected ways to prompt ports for a reply. Null, FIN, and Xmas scan provoke a response from closed ports, while Maimon, ACK, and Window scans provoke a response from open and closed ports.

Option Purpose

  • --reason explains how Nmap made its conclusion
  • -v verbose
  • -vv very verbose
  • -d debugging
  • -dd more details for debugging

Subnet enumeration 

user@slingshot:~$ nmap -n -sn 10.130.10.0/24 --packet-trace

Starting Nmap 7.60 ( https://nmap.org )
SENT (0.0509s) ICMP [10.254.252.2 > 10.130.10.1 Echo request (type=8/code=0) id=65308 seq=0] IP [ttl=44 id=3373 iplen=28 ]

  • --packet-trace will show you the enumeration packets sent out

Top 3000 Packets

  • By default nmap will scan the top 1000 ports, if you dont want to scan all 65536 ports but want to scan more than just 1000 you can scan 3000 like seen below 
sudo nmap -n -sT 10.130.10.33 --top-ports 3000
