Tactical Nmap for Beginner Network Reconnaissance « Null Byte :: WonderHowTo

When it comes to attacking devices on a network, you can't hit what you can't see. Nmap gives you the ability to explore any devices connected to a network, finding information like the operating system a device is running and which applications are listening on open ports. This information lets a hacker design an attack that perfectly suits the target environment.Network Reconnaissance for BeginnersAfter gaining access to a Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or remote network, the first step for most hackers is to conduct recon to explore the network and learn more about any available targets. You may be familiar with some devices that announce themselves on a network, like other computers advertising file sharing. While this is a useful way of discovering devices on the same network as you, most devices do not advertise their presence on the network in this obvious of a fashion.The solution to the problem of exploring a network is network scanning, made possible by programs likeNmapandarp-scan. We're only interested in the former here, which allows for highly detailed exploration and mapping of local and remote networks, though we can use Nmap to perform an ARP scan as you'll see later on. With Nmap, you can see who is on the network, what applications or operating system a target is running, and what the available attack surface is.Don't Miss:Top 5 Intrusive Nmap Scripts Hackers & Pentesters Should KnowUsing Nmap for Local NetworksRunning an Nmap scan is often the best way to discover the size of the network and the number of devices that are connected to it. Running a "fast" Nmap scan (-F) on a network range can produce a list of all of the IP addresses belonging to active hosts on the network, plus some extra information.sudo nmap -F 192.168.0.0/24

MAC Address: 60:A3:7D:30:24:60 (Apple)The data provided, combined with some basic information about services a device is running, can be used by itself as a list of targets for other hacking tools, but the capabilities of Nmap go far beyond simple host discovery.The amount of info on a local network an Nmap scan can gather is impressive, including the MAC address and manufacturer of connected devices, the operating system a device is using, and the version of any services that are running on the device. Once you know how many devices are on the network and roughly what they are, the next step is to scan and examine devices of interest on the network.Another key function of Nmap is to allow for port scanning of either individual devices or ranges of IP addresses including many devices. This allows an attacker to learn the minute details of a device they have discovered on a network, including information about ports open and services running. Ports are gateways that another device can connect through, so finding a bunch of services running on open ports can be a huge benefit to a hacker, especially if one of them has a version that is out of date and vulnerable.Using Nmap for Remote NetworksIn addition to scanning local networks, Nmap can also show information about remote networks as well. In fact, you can run Nmap against a website you want to examine, and it will parse it and retrieve the IP address associated with that web domain.nmap -F wonderhowto.com

Fortunately, Nmap is cross-platform and works onWindows,Linux, andmacOS, and comes preinstalled on many systems. If you don't have it, it'seasy to install.You'll also need a network to connect to and scan to try these techniques, but be aware that scanning is often seen as a prelude to an attack and may be met with increased scrutiny. What this means is that if you have a job that monitors suspicious behavior, scanning their entire network is a great way to gain attention.Don't Miss:Get Started Writing Your Own NSE Scripts for NmapStep 1: Configure Nmap to Scan a Single TargetTo run a basic scan, we can identify an IP address of interest to run the scan against.

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 38.60 secondsEven against a single target, a basic scan can yield a lot of information. Here, we simply ran the scan on the IP address for WonderHowTo.com. This can be run against a device on your local network, like a router, or a remote server, like the one hosting WonderHowTo.com.Step 2: Calculate the Subnet & Scan a Range to Discover DevicesIn order to identify other devices on a local network, it's useful to calculate the subnet range. This is the range of possible IP addresses given out to devices on a network, and knowing it allows you to scan through all the possible IP addresses a device on the network could have.A handy tool to do this for you isIPcalc. This tool will take your IP address (which is easy to find by typingifconfigorip ain a terminal window) and calculate the subnet range based on it. Doing so will give you a number like "192.168.0.0/24," which specifies a range of IP addresses. In the example below, the subnet is calculated as 127.0.0.0/24.ipcalc 127.0.0.1

Address:    127.0.0.1           01111111.00000000.00000000. 00000001

Hosts/Net:  254                  Class A, LoopbackIn order to run a scan including information about the services running on devices we find, we can open a terminal window and type the following command, adding in your network range where I use "172.16.42.0/24" as an example. The scan is a little slow, so you can also use an-Fflag instead of the-Ato do a faster scan of the most common ports.nmap 172.16.42.0/24 -A

For instance, to scan for devices with a port 80 open and save them to a list, we can use some Linux tools and the-oG"greppable output" flag to help us cut through the output Nmap provides.Don't Miss:How to Conduct Active Recon & DOS Attacks with NmapBy runningnmap -p 80 -oG - 192.168.0.0/24— with the network range substituted for yours — you can add| awk '/80\/open/ {print $2}' >> port80.txtto output the IP addresses belonging to discovered devices to a TXT file called "port80.txt."nmap -p 80 -oG - 192.168.0.1 | awk '/80\/open/ {print $2}' >> port80.txt
cat port80.txtHere, theawkcommand is looking for lines containing the port number and the result "open," with the second string in each line (in this case, the IP address) saved by thecatcommand to a new file called port80.txtStep 4: Identify the Operating System on Discovered DevicesOne of the most helpful things to know about a device we discover on a network is the operating system it's running. Here, we can take the TXT target list we populated in the previous step and run an operating system scan, which requires root privileges. We can use the-Oflag to run an operating system scan, and the-iLflag to tell Nmap we want to read from a TXT file of target hosts.sudo nmap -O -iL port80.txt

Nmap done: 3 IP addresses (3 hosts up) scanned in 67.32 secondsThis tactic allows us to get as much information as possible about the operating system from whatever list of targets we want to run it against, whether internal network targets or a list of website IP addresses.The next step is discovering the versions of the applications running on open ports. This may show us a port that is running software that is out of date and has a known vulnerability. To run this scan, you can use the-sVflag against a target.sudo nmap -sV 192.168.0.2 -D 192.168.0.1,192.168.0.2,192.168.0.3

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 26.24 secondsHere, we've found some very specific information about our host, allowing us to potentially identify an attack against the software listening behind the port.Step 5: Advanced Scans & WorkaroundsThere may be some circumstances where you're having a difficult time scanning a network because the ping sent by Nmap are dropped by a firewall on the router. This can make it look like no devices are up, when you know they are. To avoid this, you can include the-Pnflag, which will drop the ping and sometimes allow you to connect directly to devices and get a response.If you're scanning on a network you don't want to be detected on, you can perform a decoy scan with the-Dflag to make it more difficult to detect who is conducting the scan on the network. An example would look like the command below, and requires root privileges.sudo nmap -sS 192.168.0.2 -D 192.168.0.1,192.168.0.2,192.168.0.3

If your employer looks for suspicious behavior on their networks, extensively scanning can be easily interpreted as the threatening behavior if you have no good reason to be performing the scan.One of the most powerful things about Nmap is that it's scriptable with options like-oGand can be used to feed into other tools, so if you've ever imagined building a tool that needs to be aware of other devices on the same network, Nmap might be just what you're looking for.I hope you enjoyed this guide to using Nmap to map and explore devices on a network!
