Description:

pythonlibnmap 0.7.3

Code status

Use cases
libnmap is a python library enabling python developers to manipulate
nmap process and data.
libnmap is what you were looking for if you need to implement the
following:

automate or schedule nmap scans on a regular basis
manipulate nmap scans results to do reporting
compare and diff nmap scans to generate graphs
batch process scan reports
…

The above uses cases will be easy to implement with the help of the
libnmap modules.

libnmap modules
The lib currently offers the following modules:

process: enables you to launch nmap scans
parse: enables you to parse nmap reports or scan results (only
XML so far) from a file, a string,…
report: enables you to manipulate a parsed scan result and
de/serialize scan results in a json format
diff: enables you to see what changed between two scans
common: contains basic nmap objects like NmapHost and
NmapService. It is to note that each object can be “diff()ed” with
another similar object.
plugins: enables you to support datastores for your scan results
directly in the “NmapReport” object. from report module:

mongodb: insert/get/getAll/delete
sqlalchemy: insert/get/getAll/delete
aws s3: insert/get/getAll/delete (not supported for python3 since
boto is not supporting py3)
csv: todo (easy to implement)
elastic search: todo

Documentation
All the documentation is available on read the
docs. This documentation contains
small code samples that you directly reuse.

Dependencies
libnmap has by default no dependencies, except defusedxml if you need to
import untrusted XML scans data.
The only additional python modules you’ll have to install depends if you
wish to use libnmap to store reports on an exotic data store via
libnmap’s independents plugins.
Below the list of optional dependencies:

sqlalchemy (+the driver
ie:MySQL-python)
pymongo
boto

Security
If you are importing/parsing untrusted XML scan outputs with
python-libnmap, install defusedxml library:
ronald@brouette:~/dev$ pip install defusedxml
This will prevent you from being vulnerable to XML External Entities
attacks.
For more information, read the official libnmap
documentation
This note relates to a cascaded CVE vulnerability from the python core
library XML ElementTree. Nevertheless, python-libnmap has been assigned
an official
CVE
to track this issue.
This CVE is addressed from v0.7.2.

Python Support
The libnmap code is tested against the following python interpreters:

Python 2.7
Python 3.6
Python 3.7
Python 3.8

Install
You can install libnmap via pip:
ronald@brouette:~$ pip install python-libnmap
or via git and dist utils (à l’ancienne):
ronald@brouette:~$ git clone https://github.com/savon-noir/python-libnmap.git
ronald@brouette:~$ cd python-libnmap
ronald@brouette:~$ python setup.py install
or via git and pip:
ronald@brouette:~$ git clone https://github.com/savon-noir/python-libnmap.git
ronald@brouette:~$ cd python-libnmap
ronald@brouette:~$ pip install .

Examples
Some codes samples are available in the examples directory or in the
documentation.
Among other example, you notice an sample code pushing nmap scan reports
in an ElasticSearch instance and allowing you to create fancy dashboards
in Kibana like the screenshot below:
