Advanced Subdomain Security Scanner (Metasploit Module)

Listen to this Post

2025-02-15

This Metasploit auxiliary module is designed to enhance subdomain security by scanning all subdomains of a given domain. It performs the following tasks:
– Open Port Scanning: Utilizes Nmap to identify open ports.
– Vulnerability Scanning: Employs Nuclei to detect vulnerabilities.
– Azure Tenant Information: Extracts Azure tenant details.
– Custom Output: Saves results to a user-defined file.

Key Features:

  • Automatic Subdomain Discovery (via subfinder)
  • Full Port Scanning (via Nmap)
  • Comprehensive Vulnerability Scanning (via nuclei)
  • Azure Tenant ID Detection
  • Custom Output File for Results

Example Commands for Practice:

1. Subdomain Discovery:

subfinder -d example.com -o subdomains.txt 

2. Port Scanning with Nmap:

nmap -iL subdomains.txt -oA nmap_scan_results 

3. Vulnerability Scanning with Nuclei:

nuclei -l subdomains.txt -t vulnerabilities -o nuclei_results.txt 

4. Metasploit Module Execution:

use auxiliary/scanner/http/subdomain_security_scanner 
set DOMAIN example.com 
set OUTPUT_FILE results.txt 
run 

What Undercode Say:

Subdomain security is a critical aspect of cybersecurity, as attackers often exploit overlooked subdomains to gain unauthorized access. This Metasploit module simplifies the process of identifying vulnerabilities and misconfigurations across subdomains. By integrating tools like Nmap and Nuclei, it provides a comprehensive approach to subdomain enumeration and security assessment.

For Linux users, commands like grep, awk, and `sed` can be used to filter and analyze scan results. For example:

grep "high" nuclei_results.txt | awk '{print $2}' 

This command extracts high-severity vulnerabilities from the Nuclei scan results.

Windows users can leverage PowerShell for similar tasks. For instance:

Get-Content results.txt | Select-String "Azure" 

This command filters Azure-related information from the scan results.

By combining these tools and techniques, cybersecurity professionals can significantly enhance their subdomain security posture, ensuring robust protection against potential threats.
