For detailed information about scan methods, see the Hunt Methods page.

Scanning IPv6 addresses

SyMiniCS fully supports the scanning of IPv6 addresses. To scan an IPv6 target, enclose the address in square brackets, eg:

SyMiniCS [2001:4860:0:2001::68]

Threads

SyMiniCS now supports multi-process and multi-threaded host scans. Learn below how to use this functionality.

Multi-Threaded Scans

In order to perform a multi-threaded host scan you need to use the -hl parameter. Examples:

 SyMiniCS -hl:Hosts.lst
 SyMiniCS -hl:Hosts.lst -hm:xss -sn:AnyName

Host list files must have one target host per line. Example:

www.host1.com
www.host2.com
www.host3.com:8080
www.host4.com:443

Optional: The -hmax parameter allows to set the maximum number of host threads (default is 10). Example:

 SyMiniCS -hl:Hosts.lst -hmax:5

In this example, 5 hosts will be scanned, hosts in excess will be on queue

Sequential Scans

The -hseq parameter enables the sequential host scan mode (disables multi-threaded host scans).

Session Management

Syhunt Suite includes a new utility (SesmanCS.exe) to pause/unpause, list and stop SyMiniCS sessions. The supported commands are listed below.

Supported Commands

Usage Examples:
    SesmanCS -pa
    SesmanCS -p:CustomerX

Available parameters:
-p:[session name]   Pauses a session
-u:[session name]   Unpauses a session
-s:[session name]   Stops a session
-lai                Lists all sessions (active and inactive)
-la                 Lists active sessions
-pa                 Pauses active sessions
-ua                 Unpauses active sessions
-sa                 Stops active sessions
-help (or /?)       Displays this list

Reports

SyMiniCS reports are automatically generated and saved if the -gr parameter is provided.

You can also open the session with the main Syhunt Suite UI by calling:

 SySuite.exe -s:[session name]

Or by launching Syhunt Suite, and using the menu File -> Load session... option.

FAQs

What is the correct command line syntax to do a code scan?

Q: I'm using SyMiniCS -hm:cs -srcdir:"C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aaa" to do code scan, but it is not working. What is the correct command line syntax to do a code scan?

It is still necessary to provide a host address as reference (no connections to the target host will be made). Example:

 SyMiniCS.exe 127.0.0.1 -hm:cs -srcdir:"C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aaa"
