usage: shocker.py

-h, --help show this help message and exit

--Host HOST, -H HOST A target hostname or IP address

--file FILE, -f FILE File containing a list of targets

--port PORT, -p PORT The target port number (default=80)

--command COMMAND Command to execute (default=/bin/uname -a)

--cgi CGI, -c CGI Single CGI to check (e.g. /cgi-bin/test.cgi)

--proxy PROXY A BIT BROKEN RIGHT NOW Proxy to be used in the form 'ip:port'

--ssl, -s Use SSL (default=False)

--threads THREADS, -t THREADS Maximum number of threads (default=10, max=100)

--verbose, -v Be verbose in output

./shocker.py -H 127.0.0.1 --command "/bin/cat /etc/passwd" -c /cgi-bin/test.cgi

Scans for http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/test.cgi and, if found, attempts to cat /etc/passwd

./shocker.py -H www.example.com -p 8001 -s

Scan www.example.com on port 8001 using SSL for all scripts in cgi_list and attempts the default exploit for any found

./shocker.py -f ./hostlist

Scans all hosts listed in the file ./hostlist with the default options

Python 2.7+

Changes in version 1.1 (June 2018)

• Added some additinoal debugging functionality and corrected help text

Changes in version 1.0 (March 2016)

• Some additional scripts contributed and updates to some comments, URLs and contact details

Changes in version 0.72 (December 2014)

• Minor corrections to logic and typos

Changes in version 0.71 (December 2014)

• Added timeout to urllib2.urlopen requests using a global 'TIMEOUT'

Changes in version 0.7 (November 2014)

• Add interactive 'psuedo console' for further exploitation of a chosen vulnerable server
• Attemped to clean up output buffering issues by wrapping sys.stdout in a class which flushes on every call to write
• Added a progress indicator for use in time consuming tasks to reassure non vebose users

Changes in version 0.6 (October 2014)

• Preventing return codes other than 200 from being considered successes
• Added ability to specify multiple targets in a file
• Moved the 'cgi_list' list of scripts to attempt to exploit to a file
• Fixed some output formatting issues
• Fixed valid hostname/IP regex to allow single word hostnames

Changes in version 0.5 (October 2014)

• Added ability to specify a single script to target rather than using cgi_list
• Introduced a timeout on socket operations for host_check
• Added some usage examples in the script header
• Added an epilogue to the help text indicating presence of examples

Changes in version 0.4 (October 2014)

• Introduced a thread count limit defaulting to 10
• Removed colour support until I can figure out how to make it work in Windows and *nix equally well
• Spelling corrections
• More comprehensive cgi_list
• Removes success_flag from output

Pre 0.4 (October 2014)

• No idea

• Identify and respond correctly to HTTP/200 response - false positives - Low priority/hassle
• Implement curses for *nix systems - For the whole application or only psuedo terminal? - Low priority/prettiness
• Thread the initial host check now that multiple targets are supported (and could be make this bit time consuming)
• Change verbose to integer value - quiet, normal, verbose, debug?
• Add option to skip initial host checks for the sake of speed?
• Add a summary of results before exiting
• Save results to a file? Format?
• Eventually the idea is to include multiple possible vectors but currently only one is checked.
• Add Windows and *nix colour support - Low priority/prettiness
• Add a timeout in interactive mode for commands which don't return, e.g. /bin/cat /dev/zero
• Prettify - Low priority/pretinness (obviously)
• Add support for scanning and explointing SSH and SMTP? https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Shellshock+via+SMTP/18879
• Add SOCKS proxy support, potentially using https://github.com/rpicard/socksonsocks/ from Rober Picard
• Other stuff. Probably.
