EGO Vulnerability Scanner – Revolutionizing Cybersecurity With Advanced Scanning Capabilities

EGO is a vulnerability scanner developed by chickenpwny at PolitoInc. It was created to provide a platform for hackers to store multiple projects in a REST API.

Recognizing a need for such a tool, EGO was developed to utilize various open-source security tools and libraries to perform comprehensive reconnaissance scans.

EGO provides a user-friendly GUI interface, eliminating the need for spreadsheets and files to record reconnaissance data. You can access the data using scripts or tools like Jupyter Notebook to interact with the database and identify vulnerabilities.

EGO also provides a REST API for reconnaissance agents to connect back to. This allows penetration testers to scan isolated networks and retrieve nmap logs using only the HTTP protocol.

Installation

1. Install the required Python packages:
2. Install Postgres and create a user named ‘postgres’.

sudo -i -u postgres psql
CREATEUSER postgres;
ALTER USER postgres WITH PASSWORD 'test';
CREATE DATABASE test;
\l -list
\q

1. In the settings.py file, change the DATABASES PASSWORD AND USER to the Postgres values.
2. Install nmap:

sudo apt-get install nmap

5. Install nuclei: First we need to install go1.21

sudo apt-get update
wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.21.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -xvf go1.21.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo mv go /usr/local
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export PATH=$GOPATH/bin:$GOROOT/bin:$PATH
source ~/.profile

go install -v github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v3/cmd/nuclei@latest

All settings and switches for the agents are controlled by the REST API. The agents find the REST API using /EGO_agent/EgoSettings.py.

Configuration

EgoAgentUser = "ego" EgoAgentPassWord = "password" HostAddress = "http://127.0.0.1" Port = "5000" api_accessKey = ""
