BannerGrab is a tool that performs connection, trigger-based and basic information collection from network services. The program has two modes of operation; simple connection banner grabbing and the default mode which makes use of service triggers to enumerate additional information.

BannerGrab can connect to TCP services, UDP services and can connect to SSL services. SSL service banner grabbing will also return the SSL connection details.

Requirements

BannerGrab requires the GNU C compiler and has been tested on Linux, but should work on other UNIX type systems. It has even been known to run from an iPhone.

BannerGrab has an optional requirement of the OpenSSL library to perform SSL-based grabs. However, SSL support can be disabled.

Download

BannerGrab can be downloaded from the Source Forge project site at sourceforge.net/projects/bannergrab.

Compiling

BannerGrab includes a Makefile, so it can be built in the usual way:

make
make install (as root)

However, it can be manually compiled as follows:

gcc -lssl -o bannergrab bannergrab.c

On Mac OS-X systems it can be compiled as follows:

gcc -lssl -lcrypto -o bannergrab bannergrab.c

It can be compiled without OpenSSL support as follows:

gcc -DNOSSL -o bannergrab bannergrab.c

Running

BannerGrab can be run in its simplest form by specifying a host and port as the parameters. For example:

bannergrab 127.0.0.1 80

More advanced options can be shown using the online help with the following command:

bannergrab --help
