Webstor - A Script To Quickly Enumerate All Websites Across All Of Your Organization'S Networks, Store Their Responses, And Query For Known Web Technologies, Such As Those With Zero-Day Vulnerabilities

 

WebStor is a tool implemented in Python under the MIT license for quickly enumerating all websites across all of your organization's networks, storing their responses, and querying for known web technologies and versions, such as those with zero-day vulnerabilities. It is intended, in particular, to solve the unique problem presented in mid to large sized organizations with decentralized administration, wherein it can be almost impossible to track all of the web technologies deployed by various administrators distributed across different units and networks.


WebStor achieves its goal by performing the following actions:

  1. Performs DNS zone transfers to collect an organization's A and CNAME records.
  2. Uses Masscan to scan for open HTTP/HTTPS ports on an organization's net ranges, as well as any IP addresses outside those ranges that were present in the organization's A and CNAME records.
  3. Uses the Python requests library to collect all responses and store in a MariaDB database. All DNS names corresponding to an IP with open HTTP/HTTPS ports will be included in requests in addition to the IP address, so that sites using different headers will not cause a website to be missed.
  4. Downloads Wappalyzer web technologies database and stores in MariaDB database, enabling users to query the location(s) of a common web technology by name.
  5. Allows users to query the location(s) where custom regexes are contained within stored responses.

Supported platforms

WebStor presently will run on Linux systems. As it is written in Python, conversion to support Windows would be trivial and is likely to happen in the future.


Prerequisites

Applications
  • Masscan
    • If you will be using a cron job to update the database (typical), it is critical that you configure sudo nopasswd for any user executing Masscan scanning via WebStor.
  • MariaDB 10.0.5 or later
    • The default credentials tried by WebStor will be root and a blank password. See the "Secure options" section for configuring WebStor to use other usernames and passwords to connect to the database.

Python libraries
  • pip3 install dnspython
  • pip3 install beautifulsoup4
  • pip3 install mysql-connector-python
  • pip3 install js-regex
  • pip3 install gevent
  • pip3 install requests

Availability via PyPI
  • If you are simply looking to run WebStor and not edit it, you may install the prerequisite applications and then use 'sudo pip3 install webstor'.
  • After installing WebStor via PyPI, webstor will be in the path and can be run with at the command line regardless of working directory with 'webstor' instead of 'webstor.py', e.g. 'webstor -g'.

Steps to initially configure WebStor and populate database:

NOTE: These steps assume your organization uses just one TSIG key for zone transfers and that all records can be queried from one DNS server. If this is not the case, see the secure/esoteric use cases section below.

  1. Obtain a TSIG key file that allows you to pull zone transfers, place it in your working directory.
  2. Obtain a newline-delimited list file of all your organization's network ranges (CIDR notation). If you are using vast amounts of private RFC1918 space, most notably 10.X space, do not simply add 10.0.0.0/8 as this would cause Masscan to take a very long time later on. Instead, use multiple smaller blocks that are actually allocated (such as 10.10.3.0/24). With a typical corporate or university network as of the time of this writing, you can expect every million IP addresses scanned to take about 15 minutes during the masscan with WebStor's current throttling settings.
  3. Create a text file with the domains names for which you will be pulling zone transfers. At the top of the file, insert two lines: the first with name of your TSIG key (if you don't know what it is, it will be in the first line of your TSIG file right after "key"), and the second line must be the name or IP address of your DNS server. The rest of the file must be every DNS domain name for your organization, one per line. For a typical large university, this will be names like engineering.stateu.edu.
  4. Run ./webstor.py -g to show the config and confirm database functionality.
  5. Run ./webstor.py -tI <tsig file> -mI <net ranges file> -zI <domains file> NOTE: during the TSIG import part of this process you will be asked for a domain to associate with the TSIG and a DNS server to target for that TSIG. This is because the TSIG file itself does not contain this information. Simply provide any one of your domains, e.g. stateu.edu, and your DNS server's IP address. The information in the domain import file, processed afterward, will supercede the domain association.
  6. Webstor is now ready to collect data. Run ./webstor.py -z -m -r -w. This will collect DNS records via zone transfer, scan for open web ports with Masscan, perform HTTP/HTTPS requests against all hosts with open web ports (the superset of those in your network ranges and hosts with DNS records falling outside those ranges), and store the responses in the database. The -w option also downloads the most recent copy of the Wappalyzer Web Technologies database from GitHub.

Example usage
# Search for a string/regex associated with a web technology:
./webstor.py -sP "content=\"wordpress 4.[7-9]"
# A list of sites with this regex, expected responses from Wordpress v4.7-9 sites,
# will be returned.

# To save the regex in the example above as a custom fingerprint you can query
# by name (and do not need to remember the regex each time):
./webstor.py -c "wordpress4.7-9,content=\"wordpress 4.[7-9]"

# After the above command has been run, the query may be performed simply with:
./webstor.py -sC wordpress4.7-9

# Using WebStor to search for Wordpress sites via Wappalyzer definitions:
./webstor.py -sW wordpress
# A list of reachable Wordpress sites on your organization's networks will be
# returned. NOTE: Wappalyzer searches may be slower than pattern/regex searches
# due to the number of properties being queried to verify.

Results shown by name and IP

Sites are queried based on responses to both names and IP addresses. This is important because some webservers host multiple sites under multiple names. Some other servers may serve only a default site or a hosting provider's default response when requested by IP (e.g. https://68.66.216.42), and an actual line-of-business site when queried by name (e.g. https://www.seekerdlp.com). For this reason, if you have a named site that also is served when the webserver's IP is requested, you will see query results for both.


Keeping results fresh

It is recommended that you set up a cron job to run WebStor daily so that your query results will always reflect the current state of your network.


Secure options

If you do not want to use default MariaDB credentials (root, blank password), you can use the -q option to specify the path to a file with credentials. The first line of the file must be the server, e.g. localhost. The second line must be the sql user name. The third line must be the password.

If you do not wish to store your TSIG in key the database, you may use the -tF option to specify the path to an ACLed TSIG key file.

If your organization utilizes multiple TSIG keys, you will need to store them in the database. They can each be added with the -tI option and domains can be through the normal options, specifying the appropriate key and server.
