Raccoon - A High Performance Offensive Security Tool For Reconnaissance And Vulnerability Scanning

Offensive Security Tool for Reconnaissance and Information Gathering.

Features

DNS details
DNS visual mapping using DNS dumpster
WHOIS information
TLS Data - supported ciphers, TLS versions, certificate details, and SANs
Port Scan
Services and scripts scan
URL fuzzing and dir/file detection
Subdomain enumeration - uses Google Dorking, DNS dumpster queries, SAN discovery, and brute-force
Web application data retrieval:
- CMS detection
- Web server info and X-Powered-By
- robots.txt and sitemap extraction
- Cookie inspection
- Extracts all fuzzable URLs
- Discovers HTML forms
- Retrieves all Email addresses
Detects known WAFs
Supports anonymous routing through Tor/Proxies
Uses asyncio for improved performance
Saves output to files - separates targets by folders and modules by files

Roadmap and TODOs

Support multiple hosts (read from the file)
Rate limit evasion
OWASP vulnerabilities scan (RFI, RCE, XSS, SQLi etc.)
SearchSploit lookup on results
IP ranges support
CIDR notation support
More output formats

About
A raccoon is a tool made for reconnaissance and information gathering with an emphasis on simplicity.
It will do everything from fetching DNS records, retrieving WHOIS information, obtaining TLS data, detecting WAF presence and up to threaded dir busting and subdomain enumeration. Every scan outputs to a corresponding file.
As most of Raccoon's scans are independent and do not rely on each other's results, it utilizes Python's asyncio to run most scans asynchronously.
Raccoon supports Tor/proxy for anonymous routing. It uses default wordlists (for URL fuzzing and subdomain discovery) from the amazing SecLists repository but different lists can be passed as arguments.
For more options - see "Usage".

Installation
For the latest stable version:

pip install raccoon-scanner

Or clone the GitHub repository for the latest features and changes:

git clone https://github.com/evyatarmeged/Raccoon.git
cd Raccoon
python raccoon_src/main.py

Prerequisites
Raccoon uses Nmap to scan ports as well as utilizes some other Nmap scripts and features. It is mandatory that you have it installed before running Raccoon.
OpenSSL is also used for TLS/SSL scans and should be installed as well.

Usage

Usage: raccoon [OPTIONS]

Options:
  --version                      Show the version and exit.
  -t, --target TEXT              Target to scan  [required]
  -d, --dns-records TEXT         Comma separated DNS records to query.
                                 Defaults to: A,MX,NS,CNAME,SOA,TXT
  --tor-routing                  Route HTTP traffic through Tor (uses port
                                 9050). Slows total runtime significantly
  --proxy-list TEXT              Path to proxy list file that would be used
                                 for routing HTTP traffic. A proxy from the
                                 list will be chosen at random for each
                                 request. Slows total runtime
  --proxy TEXT                   Proxy address to route HTTP traffic through.
                                 Slows total runtime
  -w, --wordlist TEXT            Path to wordlist that would be used for URL
                                 fuzzing
  -T, --threads INTEGER          Number of threads to use for URL
                                 Fuzzing/Subdomain enumeration. Default: 25
  --ignored-response-codes TEXT  Comma separated list of HTTP status code to
                                 ignore for fuzzing. Defaults to:
                                 302,400,401,402,403,404,503,504
  --subdomain-list TEXT          Path to subdomain list file that would be
                                 used for enumeration
  -S, --scripts                  Run Nmap scan with -sC flag
  -s, --services                 Run Nmap scan with -sV flag
  -f, --full-scan                Run Nmap scan with both -sV and -sC
  -p, --port TEXT                Use this port range for Nmap scan instead of
                                 the default
  --tls-port INTEGER             Use this port for TLS queries. Default: 443
  --skip-health-check            Do not test for target host availability
  -fr, --follow-redirects        Follow redirects when fuzzing. Default: True
  --no-url-fuzzing               Do not fuzz URLs
  --no-sub-enum                  Do not bruteforce subdomains

  -o, --outdir TEXT              Directory destination for scan output
  --help                         Show this message and exit.
