Script `bittorrent-discovery`

Script types: prerule
Categories: discovery, safe
Download: https://svn.nmap.org/nmap/scripts/bittorrent-discovery.nse

Script Summary

Discovers bittorrent peers sharing a file based on a user-supplied torrent file or magnet link. Peers implement the Bittorrent protocol and share the torrent, whereas the nodes (only shown if the include-nodes NSE argument is given) implement the DHT protocol and are used to track the peers. The sets of peers and nodes are not the same, but they usually intersect.

If the newtargets script-arg is supplied it adds the discovered peers as targets.

Script Arguments

bittorrent-discovery.include-nodes: boolean selecting whether to show only nodes
bittorrent-discovery.timeout: desired (not actual) timeout for the DHT discovery (default = 30s)
bittorrent-discovery.magnet: a string containing the magnet link of the torrent
bittorrent-discovery.torrent: a string containing the filename of the torrent file
max-newtargets, newtargets: See the documentation for the target library.
http.host, http.max-body-size, http.max-cache-size, http.max-pipeline, http.pipeline, http.truncated-ok, http.useragent: See the documentation for the http library.
slaxml.debug: See the documentation for the slaxml library.
smbdomain, smbhash, smbnoguest, smbpassword, smbtype, smbusername: See the documentation for the smbauth library.
