Automated Penetration Testing Tool

Overview

Advanced automated penetration testing framework designed for comprehensive security assessments. This tool provides multi-layered scanning capabilities including port scanning, vulnerability detection, subdomain enumeration, web application testing, and automated reporting.

Features

Core Capabilities

• Port Scanning: Fast TCP/UDP port scanning with service detection
• Subdomain Enumeration: Multiple techniques (DNS brute-force, certificate transparency, API queries)
• Vulnerability Scanning: CVE detection, misconfigurations, weak ciphers
• Web Application Testing: SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, directory traversal detection
• SSL/TLS Analysis: Certificate validation, cipher suite testing, protocol vulnerabilities
• DNS Analysis: Zone transfers, DNS record enumeration, cache poisoning checks
• WAF Detection: Identifies Web Application Firewalls and security measures
• Technology Fingerprinting: CMS detection, framework identification, server fingerprinting
• Automated Reporting: HTML, JSON, and PDF reports with severity ratings

Advanced Features

• Multi-threaded scanning for performance optimization
• Configurable scan profiles (quick, standard, deep)
• Rate limiting and stealth mode
• Custom payload injection
• Integration with CVE databases
• CI/CD pipeline integration
• Docker containerization
• REST API for automation

Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or higher
• pip package manager
• Virtual environment (recommended)

Quick Start

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/pangerlkr/automated-pentest-tool.git
cd automated-pentest-tool

# Create virtual environment
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Run basic scan
python main.py --target example.com --scan-type quick

Docker Installation

# Build image
docker build -t pentest-tool .

# Run container
docker run -it pentest-tool --target example.com

# Using docker-compose
docker-compose up

Usage

Basic Scanning

# Quick scan (ports + basic enum)
python main.py --target example.com --scan-type quick

# Standard scan (comprehensive)
python main.py --target example.com --scan-type standard

# Deep scan (all modules)
python main.py --target example.com --scan-type deep --output report.html

Advanced Options

# Subdomain enumeration
python main.py --target example.com --module subdomain --wordlist subdomains.txt

# Port scanning with custom range
python main.py --target example.com --module port --ports 1-10000 --threads 100

# Vulnerability scanning
python main.py --target example.com --module vuln --cve-check --exploit-db

# Web application testing
python main.py --target https://example.com --module web --test-sqli --test-xss

# Stealth mode with rate limiting
python main.py --target example.com --stealth --rate-limit 10

API Usage

import requests

# Start scan via API
response = requests.post('http://localhost:5000/api/scan', json={
    'target': 'example.com',
    'scan_type': 'standard',
    'modules': ['port', 'subdomain', 'vuln']
})

scan_id = response.json()['scan_id']

# Check scan status
status = requests.get(f'http://localhost:5000/api/scan/{scan_id}/status')

# Get results
results = requests.get(f'http://localhost:5000/api/scan/{scan_id}/results')
