Q:If you guys were an attacker
that was out to cause real damage
or get profit, how would you go
on aboutwhat we would do,
A:This is it ?
control as many machines in that
country, penetrate critical systems
and get as much intel/info as

8. Causing Chaos.
And that’s what we are gonna talk about
today!

9. How it all got started
We’re hackers! We love knowing how to break things and
how others would go on about breaking things!
The difference between us and others is simple:
• We want to break things legally and find a way to fix
things.
• We want to learn about new things and help people.

10. PORT SCANNING….

11. How it all got started
We saw some talks that really inspired us given by two great
people
HD Moore Fyodor

12. However…
We also ran into a bit of a problem…
Portscanning might or might not be illegal in Portugal!
No one is actually sure, and we talked with multiple people:
• Police
• Sysadmins
• Researchers
• Security professionals

13. What to do ?
• So, if you can’t port scan, how do u find out what ur
enemies attack surface is ?
• How do u know out if the entire infrastructure u rely on
everyday is vulnerable or safe?
• Security by obscurity? Right that works well….

14. What to do ?
• We and did the portscans, on passive mode, no system was
penetrated in any way what so ever.
• We did it slowly, and with plenty of time between scans as
to not cause any DoS issues.

15. Port scanning
• Tools of the trade:
• Nmap
• Wkhtmltoimage
• Python
• Scapy
• Linux
• NodeJS
• MongoDB
• C
• Redbull + Lots of nights awake +
Frustration

16. Port scanning - Process
1. Get Portugal’s CIDRs
2. Decide on a set of services you consider important
3. Check which ip’s have those port’s open
Actual scanning.
4. Check versions running of those services

17. Port scanning - Process
1. Get Portugal’s CIDRs
There are two places where you can get these:

19. Port scanning - Process
3. Check which ip’s have those port’s open
4. Check versions running of those services
This is where it get’s tricky!

20. Port scanning - Process
• Portugal on the internet….
5,822,240 allocated ip’s
Dynamic ips
GPRS

21. Port scanning - Process
• So as we mentioned, we devided the actual scanning into two
parts! And you might be wondering why…
Common nmap scan for TCP
nmap -iL ipswithftp -oA port21-FTP-with-Services -sS -sV -p21-T5 -PN
The problem of this, is that DNS resolution and –sV (Service detection) are very slow.
So how do we solve this problem? We obviously want the domains the ips are
associated with, and the versions of the services running.

22. Port scanning - Process
• Do the fast things on the 6 mil ips and then do the slow stuff
merely on the ips that are running the service we want to
analyse. • nmap -iL CIDRSPT.txt -oA port21-FTP -sS -
p21 -T5 -PN --host-timeout 1501 –min-
hostgroup 400 --min-parallelism 10 -n
• Then we will have the list of ips that have FTP running on port
21 on 3 files:
• Port21-FTP.xml
• Port21-FTP.gnmap
• Port21-FTP.nmap
• Extract ips from gnmap:
cat port21-FTP.gnmap | grep -w "21/open" | awk '{print $2}' >
IPSWITHFTP.TXT

23. Port scanning - Process
• Do the show things only the ips that have our service running.
• nmap -iL IPSWITHFTP.txt -oA port21-FTP-FINAL -sV -p21 -T5
-PN --host-timeout 1501 –min-hostgroup 400 --min-
parallelism 10
• Then we will have the list of ips that have FTP running on port
21 AND the version of those services on 3 files:
• Port21-FTP-FINAL.xml
• Port21-FTP-FINAL.gnmap
• Port21-FTP-FINAL.nmap

24. Port scanning - Process
• However…we still have UDP… and let me tell u….

25. Port scanning - Process
Nmap also has a UDP mode… -sU however it doesn’t work very
well without -sV (read: its shit!), when testing it on our lab we
noticed that most of the times nmap wasn’t able to detect if
there was a service running or not.
The reason for this is: “UDP scanning is slow as open/filtered
ports typically don't respond so nmap has to time out and then
retransmit whilst closed ports will send a ICMP port
unreachable error, which systems typically rate limit.”
When we started, it took us around 4 Weeks to scan UDP on
the entire country on 1 port….

26. Port scanning - Process
Solution ?
SCAPY!
Server
Client
Service running on

27. Port scanning - Process
Result of that script ?
On lab testing….

28. Port scanning - Process
Result of that script ?
On internet testing….

29. Port scanning - Process
When we started, it took us around +4 Weeks to scan UDP on the entire country on 1
port using NMap…. -We took this as a baseline first run to improve…
Our second run, we used python+scapy and it went down!!
1 week – well not bad for a second run, but 1 week for a port ?
Our third run, we used python+multithreading fu + scapy + blackmamba – 3 days –
and this was the best we brought it down to without bringing in the big guns (read:
“asking HD Moore for help”)
Forth run – C
Yup entire .pt (1 port ) scanned in 4 minutes and 45 seconds.

30. Port scanning - End
So we had our kick ass
friends, send us our kick ass
raw results… now what do
we do with them ?

31. Port scanning - End
Terminals are fun, BUT we want an easier
way to look at our data…
So…. We wrote a tool:
PTCoreSec Command Center!

32. First version

33. Second version

34. Third version

35. Fourth version – Current Stable

36. Fifth version – Currently Under development

37. Port scanning - Demo
DEMO TIME!

38. Port scanning – The project
While we were preparing for
codebits…
We received something in
the mail….

39. Port scanning – The project
Raspi

40. Port scanning – The project
And it got us thinking…
Port scanning, doesn’t
require a great CPU, nor
a huge amount of ram…

41. Port scanning – The project
So we decided to create a
distributed port scanning
project…

42. Port scanning – The project
We grabbed the
And added a custom set of
scripts to it…

43. Port scanning – The project

44. Port scanning – How does it work?
Step 1 – PTCoreSec admins request a job
(scan) on the backend.
Step 2 – Server side checks current
number of live raspi minions.
Step 3 – Server divides de CIDRS by the
different clients and sends them over.
Step 4 – Clients (minions) do the scans
and XMLRPC send them back to the
server.
Step 5 – Server imports these scans into
the MongoDB backend.

Cameras…. Simply connected online and without
authentication…

102. A little tip…
If you want to quickly check for
stuff (web related) that has no
authentication, use NMAP!

103. A little tip…
First, let’s get wkhtmltoimage:
wget http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltoimage-0.11.0_rc1-static-
i386.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf wkhtmltoimage-0.11.0_rc1-static-i386.tar.bz2
cp wkhtmltoimage-i386 /usr/local/bin/
Next, let’s get and install the Nmap module:
git clone git://github.com/SpiderLabs/Nmap-Tools.git
cd Nmap-Tools/NSE/
cp http-screenshot.nse /usr/local/share/nmap/scripts/
nmap --script-updatedb

104. A little tip…
Then, do your shodan search and use:
This automatically exports a list of ips
u can import into nmap

105. A little tip…
Then…

106. A little tip…
And nmap, will automatically take
screen shots of the first pages that
appear and store them, then u just
need to look at those!

107. To end…

108. Open
ports!

109. SCARY SHIT!
DEFACE 1 SCARY?
NO!

110. SCARY
SHIT!
DEFACE 2 SCARY?
Well… disturbing, scary? Not so much!

111. SCARY SHIT!

112. SCARY SHIT!

113. SCARY SHIT!

114. Shodan – the bad part
• Imports nmap scans from their servers
on a rotational basis, so its not always
100% updated! Confirmed this by
correlating some of the shodan results
with our personal results!
• For example on mysql servers, Shodan
would find 785, where our results
showed 3000+

115. Shodan – the good part
• Good querying system
• If port scanning is illegal in your
country, you’re out of trouble if
u use shodan, because ur just
querying data acquired by them.
