pentesttools 0.0.7

Pentest-Tools.com Vulnerability Scanners Library

PTT-CLI

Command Line Interface for PentestTools.

Installing

PentestTools Python module is delivered through PyPI, so it can be installed directly via pip:

pip install pentesttools

Usage

The pentesttools package provides a command line interface through the ptt utility. Right now it supports the Website Scanner service.

Example for the simplest scan:

ptt run website_scanner <url>

This runs a freemium Website Scanner scan on the <url>. Unlike in the platform itself, you can omit the schema part from the url.

Global arguments, like a suitable key for a deep scan, have to be passed straight to ptt. Tool arguments have to be passed to the tool.

ptt --key <key> run website_scanner --scan_type deep <url>

If you want the command to fail if the report contains vulnerabilities with a higher risk than some value, you can use the --fail argument.

ptt --fail high run website_scanner <url>

You can also run ptt using docker. The docker image has ptt as an entrypoint, so you don't have to type it anymore. Note that the old ptt-scan name is still used on docker.

docker run pentesttoolscom/ptt-scan:latest run website_scanner <url>

Development installation

If you want to easily modify the sources and your modifications:

pip install --edit .

Uninstalling

pip uninstall pentesttools
