I'm actively using paketto/scanrand 1.10 as a >>very fast vanilla-bruteforce-scanner for >>scanning subnets or bigger nets quickly. Version 1.10 does it's dirty work very fast, >>faster than every other scanner i tried - i >>like this speed and wouldn't really expect >>more features.
The thing about this version is that it doesn't have the capacity to do any icmp detection of hosts before it tries to scan them, I don't want it to try to scan non existant hosts in a range. I find the "-f" parameter to feed it a target list doesn't work either. Another issue I'm having with it is after its finished scanning a host (first host in a designated block even) that it doesn't seem to exit one of its functions properly and just sits there doing nothing (there's no activity on the wire either). Also the target input variables aren't anywhere near as good as they are in nmap. I am using this emerged from gentoo, so it may be something specific to my build.
Has a lot of NMAP like code in it, almost like >>it copied and pasted from nmap to scanrand for the port >>scanning, but what do I know.. :)
Which parts would those be? They HMAC/SHA1 stamped packets for return authenticity or the fact that it segregates sending/recieving of packets into two different processes? :D ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
