Linux Smart Enumeration : Tool For Pentesting & CTFs With Verbosity Levels

Linux Smart Enumeration is a tool for pentesting and CTFs with verbosity levels. This script will show relevant information about the security of the local Linux system.

It has 3 levels of verbosity so you can control how much information you see.

In the default level you should see the highly important security flaws in the system. The level 1 (./lse.sh -l1) shows interesting information that should help you to privesc. The level 2 (./lse.sh -l2) will just dump all the information it gathers about the system.

By default it will ask you some questions: mainly the current user password (if you know it 😉 so it can do some additional tests.

How to use it?

The idea is to get the information gradually.

First you should execute it just like ./lse.sh. If you see some green yes!, you probably have already some good stuff to work with.

If not, you should try the level 1 verbosity with ./lse.sh -l1 and you will see some more information that can be interesting.

If that does not help, level 2 will just dump everything you can gather about the service using ./lse.sh -l2. In this case you might find useful to use ./lse.sh -l2 | less -r.

You can also select what tests to execute by passing the -s parameter. With it you can select specific tests or sections to be executed. For example ./lse.sh -l2 -s usr010,net,pro will execute the test usr010 and all the tests in the sections netand pro.
