NMAP SCRIPTING ENGINE (NSE)
The Nmap Scripting Engine (NSE) is one of Nmap's most powerful
and flexible features. It allows users to write (and share)
simple scripts (using the Lua programming language
) to automate a wide variety of networking tasks. Those scripts
are executed in parallel with the speed and efficiency you expect
from Nmap. Users can rely on the growing and diverse set of
scripts distributed with Nmap, or write their own to meet custom
needs.
Tasks we had in mind when creating the system include network
discovery, more sophisticated version detection, vulnerability
detection. NSE can even be used for vulnerability exploitation.
To reflect those different uses and to simplify the choice of
which scripts to run, each script contains a field associating it
with one or more categories. Currently defined categories are
auth, broadcast, default. discovery, dos, exploit, external,
fuzzer, intrusive, malware, safe, version, and vuln. These are
all described at
https://nmap.org/book/nse-usage.html#nse-categories
Scripts are not run in a sandbox and thus could accidentally or
maliciously damage your system or invade your privacy. Never run
scripts from third parties unless you trust the authors or have
carefully audited the scripts yourself.
The Nmap Scripting Engine is described in detail at
https://nmap.org/book/nse.html
and is controlled by the following options:
-sC
Performs a script scan using the default set of scripts. It
is equivalent to --script=default. Some of the scripts in
this category are considered intrusive and should not be run
against a target network without permission.
--script filename|category|directory/|expression[,...]
Runs a script scan using the comma-separated list of
filenames, script categories, and directories. Each element
in the list may also be a Boolean expression describing a
more complex set of scripts. Each element is interpreted
first as an expression, then as a category, and finally as a
file or directory name.
There are two special features for advanced users only. One
is to prefix script names and expressions with + to force
them to run even if they normally wouldn't (e.g. the relevant
service wasn't detected on the target port). The other is
that the argument all may be used to specify every script in
Nmap's database. Be cautious with this because NSE contains
dangerous scripts such as exploits, brute force
authentication crackers, and denial of service attacks.
File and directory names may be relative or absolute.
Absolute names are used directly. Relative paths are looked
for in the scripts of each of the following places until
found:
--datadir
$NMAPDIR
~/.nmap (not searched on Windows)
APPDATA\nmap (only on Windows)
the directory containing the nmap executable
the directory containing the nmap executable, followed by
../share/nmap (not searched on Windows)
NMAPDATADIR (not searched on Windows)
the current directory.
When a directory name ending in / is given, Nmap loads every
file in the directory whose name ends with .nse. All other
files are ignored and directories are not searched
recursively. When a filename is given, it does not have to
have the .nse extension; it will be added automatically if
necessary. Nmap scripts are stored in a scripts subdirectory
of the Nmap data directory by default (see
https://nmap.org/book/data-files.html
For efficiency, scripts are indexed in a database stored in
scripts/script.db, which lists the category or categories in
which each script belongs. When referring to scripts from
script.db by name, you can use a shell-style '*' wildcard.
nmap --script "http-*"
Loads all scripts whose name starts with http-, such as
http-auth and http-open-proxy. The argument to --script
had to be in quotes to protect the wildcard from the
shell.
More complicated script selection can be done using the and,
or, and not operators to build Boolean expressions. The
operators have the same precedence
nmap --script "not intrusive"
Loads every script except for those in the intrusive
category.
nmap --script "default or safe"
This is functionally equivalent to nmap --script
"default,safe". It loads all scripts that are in the
default category or the safe category or both.
nmap --script "default and safe"
Loads those scripts that are in both the default and safe
categories.
nmap --script "(default or safe or intrusive) and not http-*"
Loads scripts in the default, safe, or intrusive
categories, except for those whose names start with
http-.
--script-args n1=v1,n2={n3=v3},n4={v4,v5}
Lets you provide arguments to NSE scripts. Arguments are a
comma-separated list of name=value pairs. Names and values
may be strings not containing whitespace or the characters
'{', '}', '=', or ','. To include one of these characters in
a string, enclose the string in single or double quotes.
Within a quoted string, '\' escapes a quote. A backslash is
only used to escape quotation marks in this special case; in
all other cases a backslash is interpreted literally. Values
may also be tables enclosed in {}, just as in Lua. A table
may contain simple string values or more name-value pairs,
including nested tables. Many scripts qualify their arguments
with the script name, as in xmpp-info.server_name. You may
use that full qualified version to affect just the specified
script, or you may pass the unqualified version (server_name
in this case) to affect all scripts using that argument name.
A script will first check for its fully qualified argument
name (the name specified in its documentation) before it
accepts an unqualified argument name. A complex example of
script arguments is --script-args
'user=foo,pass=",{}=bar",whois={whodb=nofollow+ripe},xmpp-info.server_name=localhost'.

https://nmap.org/nsedoc/
--script-args-file filename
Lets you load arguments to NSE scripts from a file. Any
arguments on the command line supersede ones in the file. The
file can be an absolute path, or a path relative to Nmap's
usual search path (NMAPDIR, etc.) Arguments can be
comma-separated or newline-separated, but otherwise follow
the same rules as for --script-args, without requiring
special quoting and escaping, since they are not parsed by
the shell.
--script-help filename|category|directory|expression|all[,...]
Shows help about scripts. For each script matching the given
specification, Nmap prints the script name, its categories,
and its description. The specifications are the same as those
accepted by --script; so for example if you want help about
the ftp-anon script, you would run nmap --script-help
ftp-anon. In addition to getting help for individual scripts,
you can use this as a preview of what scripts will be run for
a specification, for example with nmap --script-help default.
--script-trace
This option does what --packet-trace does, just one ISO layer
higher. If this option is specified all incoming and outgoing
communication performed by a script is printed. The displayed
information includes the communication protocol, the source,
the target and the transmitted data. If more than 5% of all
transmitted data is not printable, then the trace output is
in a hex dump format. Specifying --packet-trace enables
script tracing too.
--script-updatedb
This option updates the script database found in
scripts/script.db which is used by Nmap to determine the
available default scripts and categories. It is only
necessary to update the database if you have added or removed
NSE scripts from the default scripts directory or if you have
changed the categories of any script. This option is
generally used by itself: nmap --script-updatedb.
