pukpuk 3.3.0

HTTP discovery toolkit

pukpuk

HTTP discovery and change monitoring tool

About

Pukpuk ("pook-pook") is a simple utility that stores screenshots and HTTP responses for a given network range or URLs. It does so by looking for open ports, parsing certificates and performing reverse DNS lookups.

Requirements

• Python 3.11, 3.12
• chromium (for screen grabbing functionality)

Basic Usage

Scan CIDR network using default ports

$ pukpuk -N 10.0.0.0/24

Scan IP range and examine ports 80/http, 443/https and 8443 (auto-detect)

$ pukpuk -N 10.0.1.1-10.0.2.15 -p 80/http,443/https,8443

Skip discovery and load URLs from a file

$ pukpuk -U urls.txt

Installation

Using PyPI

$ pip3 install pukpuk

Troubleshooting

libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work

$ LD_PRELOAD=libgcc_s.so.1 pukpuk

Doesn't discover ports that exist for sure

In case of larger scans and possibility of dealing with a firewall experiment with increasing --socket-timeout, using less --workers, splitting the scan into smaller parts using text file input or give randomization a chance.

CLI

usage: pukpuk [-h] [-N NETWORK] [-H HOSTS] [-U URLS] [-p PORTS] [-b BROWSER] [-r] [-o OUTPUT_DIR] [-u USER_AGENT] [-w WORKERS] [--process-timeout PROCESS_TIMEOUT] [--socket-timeout SOCKET_TIMEOUT] [--skip-screens] [--grabbing-attempts GRABBING_ATTEMPTS] [-v] [-d | -q]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -N NETWORK, --network NETWORK
                        Accepts network in CIDR notation or an IP range and performs discovery using ports in `-p`, e.g. "10.0.0.0/24", "10.0.1.1-10.2.1.1"
  -H HOSTS, --hosts HOSTS
                        Loads hosts from a file and performs discovery using ports in `-p`
  -U URLS, --urls URLS  Loads specific URLs from a file, skips discovery and ignores the `-p` argument for these
  -p PORTS, --ports PORTS
                        Comma separated port list for HTTP service discovery [Default: 80/http, 443/https]
  -b BROWSER, --browser BROWSER
                        Chromium browser path for headless screen grabbing [Default: chromium]
  -r, --randomize       Randomize scanning order
  -o OUTPUT_DIR, --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR
                        Path where results (text files, images) will be stored [Default: YYYYMMDD_HHMM.pukpuk]
  -u USER_AGENT, --user-agent USER_AGENT
                        Browser User-Agent header [Default: python-requests/2.28.1]
  -w WORKERS, --workers WORKERS
                        Number of concurrent workers [Default: 15]
  --process-timeout PROCESS_TIMEOUT
                        Process timeout in seconds [Default: 20]
  --socket-timeout SOCKET_TIMEOUT
                        Socket timeout in seconds [Default: 3]
  --skip-screens        Skip screen grabbing
  --grabbing-attempts GRABBING_ATTEMPTS
                        Number of screen grabbing attempts [Default: 3]
