Smap a powerful replacement for Nmap

Introduction

Smap: A Drop-In Replacement For Nmap Powered By Shodan.Io Smap is a replica of Nmap which uses shodan.io’s free API for port scanning. It takes the same command-line arguments as Nmap and produces the same output which makes it a drop-in replacement for Nmap.

Features

• Scans 200 hosts per second
• Doesn’t require any account/api key
• Vulnerability detection
• Supports all nmap’s output formats
• Service and version fingerprinting
• Makes no contact to the targets

Installation

• You can download a pre-built binary from here
• Smap is also available on AUR as smap-git (builds from source) and smap-bin (pre-built binary).

Usage

Smap takes the same arguments as Nmap but options other than -p , -h , -o* , -iL are ignored. If you are unfamiliar with Nmap, here’s how to use Smap.

Specifying targets

• You can specify targets as follows:

  smap 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.2
  

• You can also use a list of targets, separated by newlines.

  smap -iL targets.txt
  

  Output

  Smap supports 6 output formats which can be used with the -o* as follows. If you want to print the output to the terminal, use hyphen ( -) as filename.

Supported formats:

• oX : nmap’s xml format
• oG : nmap’s greppable format
• oN : nmap’s default format
• oA : output in all 3 formats above at once
• oP : IP:PORT pairs separated by newlines
• oS : custom smap format
• oJ : json

Specifying ports

Smap scans 1237 ports by default. If you want to display results for certain ports, use the -p option.
