Cisco OCS

Mass Cisco scanner for attempting to exploit Cisco devices across an IP range. It checks multiple IPs for vulnerabilities and logs results.

Description

cisco-ocs is a tool designed for mass scanning of Cisco devices within a specified IP range. It attempts to exploit vulnerabilities in Cisco routers and similar network equipment. The tool is particularly useful for penetration testers identifying weak or vulnerable Cisco devices in a target network.

Use cases include network reconnaissance and vulnerability assessment during authorized security testing. It logs interactions with each IP and reports whether the device is vulnerable. The tool operates under the GPL license and was coded by OverIP.

It requires libc6 as a dependency and is lightweight with an installed size of 25 KB.

How It Works

The tool scans a range of IP addresses provided as start and end points. For each IP, it logs the interaction, attempts exploitation specific to Cisco devices, and reports if the router is vulnerable. It uses network protocols to probe Cisco equipment, likely targeting known vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS or related services.

Installation
