Pentest Network Scanner
Stage
- PTES: 2-3
- MITRE: TA0007 - Discovery
Objective
Identify exposed network services and protocol-level attack surface.
Required Workflow
- Validate scope before any active action and reject out-of-scope targets.
- Run only authorized checks aligned to PTES, OWASP WSTG, NIST SP 800-115, and MITRE ATT&CK.
- Write findings in canonical finding_schema format with reproducible PoC notes.
- Honor dry-run mode and require explicit --i-have-authorization for live execution.
- Export deterministic artifacts for downstream skill consumption.
Execution
python skills/pentest-network-scanner/scripts/network_scanner.py --scope scope.json --target <target> --input <path> --output <path> --format json --dry-run
Outputs
