🌈 bannergrab(1) — a network service banner grabbing tool 🌈

✨ NAME ✨

bannergrab — a network service banner grabbing tool. bestie, it grabs banners, no cap. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bannergrab [options] host port

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay bestie, bannergrab performs connection, trigger and basic service information collection.

There are basic banner grabbing modes, and the first mode (the default one) sends triggers to the services and performs basic information collection. The second mode (--no-triggers) only connects to the service and returns the connection banner.

By default, if bannergrab has a trigger for the port number that is specified, the trigger for that port is used. If no trigger is listed for a port, the default one is used. No attempt is made to determine the type of service operating on a port.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --help — show a summary of options. your fave "what do i even type" button ✨
  • --version — show the program's version, like a little era check 💫
  • --show-triggers — lists the triggers used by bannergrab.
  • --trigger=<trigger> — specify the trigger to use. specify DEFAULT to use the default trigger.
  • --no-triggers — collect only the connection banner; no triggers are sent and no SSL. it's giving "just say hi, no extra questions" 💅
  • --udp — connect to a port using UDP. the default is to use TCP.
  • --no-ssl — prevent SSL connection creation. no sparkly SSL era for this run 🙅
  • --no-hex — output containing non-printable characters are converted to hex. this option prevents the conversion. sometimes you want the raw chaos, not the hex glow-up 😭
  • --conn-time=<secs> — connection timeout (default is 5s).
  • --read-time=<secs> — read timeout (default is 3s).
  • --verbose — show additional program details such as any errors.
