pymap: A simple Python script for educational purposes, designed for network scanning and service-based vulnerability detection.
This project is a Python script that scans a network environment to detect active devices, open ports, running services, and potential security vulnerabilities. It uses Nmap for network scanning, analyzes service version information, queries the NVD/CVE database for relevant vulnerabilities, and generates a PDF report with the results.
- 🔍 Network Scanning — Performs in-depth Nmap scans on specified IP addresses, CIDR blocks, or domains.
- 🧾 Service & Version Detection — Collects service and version information for detected services.
⚠️ Vulnerability Detection — Queries collected service/version data against the NVD/CVE database.- 📄 PDF Reporting — Compiles scan results and detected vulnerabilities into a detailed PDF report.
- 🌐 Automatic Subnet Detection — Automatically detects the local subnet if no target is specified and performs the scan.
- ⚡ Parallel Processing (ThreadPoolExecutor) — Executes vulnerability scans in parallel for improved performance in large networks.
- Python — Core language.
- Nmap — Network scanning.
- Requests — Fetching CVE data via HTTP.
- Netifaces — Detect local network interfaces and subnet information.
- ReportLab — Generating PDF reports.
- Concurrent.Futures — Parallel processing.
