-- Interface with Nmap internals.
--
-- The nmap
module is an interface with Nmap's internal functions
-- and data structures. The API provides target host details such as port
-- states and version detection results. It also offers an interface to the
-- Nsock library for efficient network I/O.
-- @copyright Same as Nmap--See http://nmap.org/book/man-legal.html
module "nmap"
--- Returns the debugging level as a non-negative integer.
--
-- The debugging level can be set with the -d
option.
-- @return The debugging level.
-- @usage if nmap.debugging() > 0 then ... end
function debugging()
--- Determines whether Nmap was compiled with SSL support.
--
-- This can be used to avoid sending SSL probes when SSL is not available.
-- @return True if Nmap was compiled with SSL support, false otherwise.
function have_ssl()
--- Returns the verbosity level as a non-negative integer.
--
-- The verbosity level can be set with the -v
option. When
-- a script is given by name with the --script
option, as
-- opposed to being selected by default or by category, its verbosity
-- level is automatically increased by one.
-- @return The verbosity level.
-- @usage if nmap.verbosity() > 0 then ... end
function verbosity()
--- Returns whether a script should be able to perform privileged operations
--
-- @return True if Nmap is running privileged, false otherwise.
function is_privileged()
--- Searches for the specified file and returns a string containing its path if
-- it is found and readable (to the process).
--
-- If the file is not found, not readable, or is a directory, nil
-- is returned.
-- @usage
-- nmap.fetchfile("nmap-rpc") --> "/usr/local/share/nmap/nmap-rpc"
-- @param filename Filename to search for.
-- @return String representing the full path to the file or nil
.
function fetchfile(filename)
--- Returns the timing level as a non-negative integer.
--
-- Possible return values vary from 0
to 5
,
-- corresponding to the six built-in Nmap timing templates. The timing level
-- can be set with the -T
option.
-- @return The timing level.
function timing_level()
--- Gets a port table for a port on a given host.
--
-- This function takes a host table and a port table and returns a port table
-- for the queried port. The port table returned is similar in structure to the
-- ones passed to the hostrule
, portrule
, and
-- action
functions. If the given port was not scanned the function
-- returns nil
.
--
-- You can of course reuse the host and port tables passed to a script's rule
-- function. The purpose of this call is to be able to match scripts against
-- more than one open port. For example if the target host has an open port 22
-- and a running identd server, then you can write a script which will only fire
-- if both ports are open and there is an identification server on port 113.
-- While it is possible to specify IP addresses different to the currently
-- scanned target, the result will only be correct if the target is in the
-- currently scanned group of hosts.
-- @param host Host table, containing an ip
field.
-- @param port Port table, containing number
and
-- protocol
fields.
-- @return A new port table holding the status and information for the port, or nil
.
-- @usage p = nmap.get_port_state({ip="127.0.0.1"}, {number="80", protocol="tcp"})
function get_port_state(host, port)
--- Iterates over port tables matching protocol and state for a given host
--
-- This function takes a host table, previous port table, port protocol and
-- port state to return matching port tables on a host.
--
-- The first time you call this function, pass nil
for the port
-- parameter to get the first matching port table. From then on, pass the
-- previous port table returned by this function to the port parameter for the
-- next matching port table.
--
-- @param host Host table, containing an ip
field
-- @param port Port table, containing a number
field; or nil
-- for first port
-- @param proto Port protocol, such as "tcp"
-- @param state Port state, such as "open"
-- @return Next port table for host, or nil
when exhausted
-- @usage port = nmap.get_ports(host, port, "tcp", "open")
function get_ports(host, port, proto, state)
--- Sets the state of a port on a given host.
--
-- Using this function, the final port state, reflected in Nmap's results, can
-- be changed for a target. This is useful when Nmap detects a port as
-- open|filtered
, but the script successfully connects to that
-- port. In this case, the script can set the port state to open
.
-- This function doesn't change the original port table passed a script's
-- action function.
-- @param host Host table, containing an ip
field.
-- @param port Port table, containing number
and
-- protocol
fields.
-- @param state Port state, like "open"
or "closed"
.
function set_port_state(host, port, state)
--- Sets version information on a port.
--
-- NSE scripts are sometimes able to determine the service name and application
-- version listening on a port. A whole script category (version
)
-- was designed for this purpose. This function is used to record version
-- information when it is discovered.
--
-- The host and port arguments to this function should either be the tables
-- passed to the action method or they should have the same structure. The port
-- argument specifies the port to operate on through its number
-- and protocol
fields. and also contains the new version
-- information to set. The version detection fields this function looks at are
-- name
, product
, version
,
-- extrainfo
, hostname
, ostype
,
-- devicetype
, and service_tunnel
. All these keys are
-- optional.
--
-- The probestate
argument describes the state in which the script
-- completed. It is a string, one of: "hardmatched"
,
-- "softmatched"
, "nomatch"
,
-- "tcpwrapped"
, or "incomplete"
.
-- "hardmatched"
is almost always used (and is the default),
-- as it signifies a
-- successful match. The other possible states are generally only used for
-- standard version detection rather than the NSE enhancement.
-- @param host Host table, containing an ip
field.
-- @param port Port table, containing number
and
-- protocol
fields, as well as any additional version information
-- fields.
-- @param probestate The state of the probe: "hardmatched"
,
-- "softmatched"
, "nomatch"
,
-- "tcpwrapped"
, or "incomplete"
.

function clock_ms()
--- Gets the link-level hardware type of an interface.
--
-- This function takes a dnet-style interface name and returns a string
-- representing the hardware type of the interface. Possible return values are
-- "ethernet"
, "loopback"
, "p2p"
, or
-- nil
if none of the other types apply.
-- @param interface_name The name of the interface.
-- @return "ethernet"

,
-- "p2p"
, or nil
.
-- @usage iface_type = nmap.get_interface_list("eth0")
function get_interface_link(interface_name)
--- Create a mutex on an object.
--
-- This function returns another function that works as a mutex on the object
-- passed. This object can be any Lua data type except nil
,
-- Booleans, and Numbers. The Mutex (the returned function) allows you to lock,
-- try to lock, and release the mutex. The Mutex function takes only one
-- argument, which must be one of
-- * "lock"
: makes a blocking lock on the mutex. If the mutex is busy then the thread will yield and wait. The function returns with the mutex locked.
-- * "trylock"
: makes a non-blocking lock on the mutex. If the mutex is busy then it immediately returns a false value. Otherwise, the mutex locks the mutex and returns true.
-- * "done"
: releases the mutex and allows another thread to lock it. If the thread does not have a lock on the mutex, an error will be raised.
-- * "running"
: returns the thread locked on the mutex or nil
if no thread is locked. This should only be used for debugging as it interferes with finished threads from being collected.
--
-- NSE maintains a weak reference to the Mutex function so other calls to
-- nmap.mutex with the same object will return the same function (Mutex);
-- however, if you discard your reference to the Mutex then it may be collected
-- and subsequent calls to nmap.mutex with the object will return a different
-- Mutex!
-- @param object Object to create a mutex for.
-- @return Mutex function which takes one of the following arguments:
-- "lock"
, "trylock"
, "done"
, or
-- "running"
.
-- @usage
-- id = "My Script's Unique ID"

-- local mutex = nmap.mutex(id)
-- function action(host, port)
-- mutex "lock"
-- -- do stuff
-- mutex "done"
-- return script_output
-- end
function mutex(object)
--- Create a condition variable for an object.
--
-- This function returns a function that works as a Condition Variable for the
-- given object parameter. The object can be any Lua data type except
-- nil
, Booleans, and Numbers. The Condition Variable (returned
-- function) allows you wait, signal, and broadcast on the condition variable.
-- The Condition Variable function takes only one argument, which must be one of
-- * "wait"
: Wait on the condition variable until another thread wakes us.
-- * "signal"
: Wake up a single thread from the waiting set of threads for this condition variable.
-- * "broadcast"
: Wake up all threads in the waiting set of threads for this condition variable.
--
-- NSE maintains a weak reference to the Condition Variable so other calls to
-- nmap.condvar with the same object will return the same function (Condition
-- Variable); however, if you discard your reference to the Condition
-- Variable then it may be collected; and, subsequent calls to nmap.condvar with
-- the object will return a different Condition Variable function!
--
-- In NSE, Condition Variables are typically used to coordinate with threads
-- created using the stdnse.new_thread facility. The worker threads must
-- wait until work is available that the master thread (the actual running
-- script) will provide. Once work is created, the master thread will awaken
-- one or more workers so that the work can be done.
--
-- It is important to check the predicate (the test to see if your worker
-- thread should "wait" or not) BEFORE and AFTER the call to wait. You are
-- not guaranteed spurious wakeups will not occur (that is, there is no
-- guarantee your thread will not be awakened when no thread called
-- "signal"
or "broadcast"
on the condition variable).
-- One important check for your worker threads, before and after waiting,
-- should be to check that the master script thread is still alive.
-- (To check that the master script thread is alive, obtain the "base" thread
-- using stdnse.base and use coroutine.status). You do not want your worker
-- threads to continue when the script has ended for reasons unknown to your
-- worker thread. You are guaranteed that all threads waiting on a
-- condition variable will be awakened if any thread that has accessed
-- the condition variable via nmap.condvar
ends for any
-- reason. This is essential to prevent deadlock with threads
-- waiting for another thread to awaken
-- them that has ended unexpectedly.
-- @see stdnse.new_thread
-- @see stdnse.base
-- @param object Object to create a condition variable for.
-- @return ConditionVariable Condition variable function.
-- @usage
-- local myobject = {}
-- local cv = nmap.condvar(myobject)
-- cv "wait" -- waits until another thread calls cv "signal"
function condvar(object)
--- Creates a new exception handler.
--
-- This function returns an exception handler function. The exception handler is
-- meant to be wrapped around other function calls that may raise an exception.
-- A function raises an exception by making its first return value false and its
-- second return value a message describing the error. When an exception occurs,
-- the exception handler optionally calls a user-provided cleanup function, then
-- terminates the script. When an exception does not occur (the wrapped
-- function's first return value is true), the exception handler strips off the
-- first return value and returns the rest.
--
-- The optional cleanup function is passed as the sole argument to
-- new_try
. It can be used to release sockets or other resources
-- before the script terminates.
--
-- A function that may raise an exception must follow the return protocol
-- understood by this function: on an exception its return values are
-- false
or nil
followed by an error message; on
-- success its return values are any true value followed by any other results.
-- @param handler User cleanup function (optional).
-- @usage
-- local result, socket, try, catch
--

function new_try(handler)
--- Returns a new NSE socket object.
--
-- To allow for efficient and parallelizable network I/O, NSE provides an
-- interface to Nsock, the Nmap socket library. The smart callback mechanism
-- Nsock uses is fully transparent to NSE scripts. The main benefit of NSE's
-- sockets is that they never block on I/O operations, allowing many scripts to
-- be run in parallel. The I/O parallelism is fully transparent to authors of
-- NSE scripts. In NSE you can either program as if you were using a single
-- non-blocking socket or you can program as if your connection is blocking.
-- Seemingly blocking I/O calls still return once a specified timeout has been
-- exceeded.
--
-- NSE sockets are the recommended way to do network I/O. They support
-- connect
-style sending and receiving over TCP and UDP (and SSL),
-- as well as raw socket receiving.
-- @return A new NSE socket.

-- @usage local socket = nmap.new_socket()
function new_socket()
--- Sets the local address of a socket.
--
-- This socket method sets the local address and port of a socket. It must be

function bind(addr, port)
--- Establishes a connection.
--
-- This method puts a socket in a state ready for communication. It takes as
-- arguments a host descriptor (either an IP address or a hostname), a port
-- number and optionally a protocol. The protocol must be one of
-- "tcp"
, "udp"
or "ssl"
; it is
-- "tcp"
if not specified.
--
-- On success the function returns a true value. On failure it returns a false
-- value (false
or nil
) and an error string. Those
-- strings are taken from the gai_strerror
C function. They are
-- (with the error code in parentheses):
-- * "Address family for hostname not supported"
(EAI_ADDRFAMILY
)
-- * "Temporary failure in name resolution"
(EAI_AGAIN
)
-- * "Bad value for ai_flags"

--- Sends data on an open socket.
--
-- This socket method sends the data contained in the data string through an
-- open connection. On success the function returns a true value. If the send

-- * "TIMEOUT"
: The operation took longer than the specified timeout for the socket.
-- * "ERROR"
: An error occurred inside the underlying Nsock library.
-- * "CANCELLED"
: The operation was cancelled.

: For example the script scan is aborted due to a faulty script.
-- * "EOF"
: An EOF was read (probably will not occur for a send operation).

--- Receives data from an open socket.
--
-- The receive method does a non-blocking receive operation on an open socket.
-- On success the function returns true along with the received data. On

function receive_bytes(n)
--- Reads from a socket using a buffer and an arbitrary delimiter.
--
-- This method reads data from the network until it encounters the given
-- delimiter string (or matches the function passed in). This function
-- continues to read from the network until the delimiter is found or the
-- function times out. If data is read beyond the delimiter, that data is
-- saved in a buffer for the next call to receive_buf
. This
-- buffer is cleared on subsequent calls to other Network I/O API functions.
--
-- The first argument may be either a pattern or a function. If a pattern, that
-- pattern is used to separate the data. If a function, it must take exactly
-- one parameter (the buffer) and its return values must be in the same format
-- as those of string.find
(offsets to the start and the end of
-- the delimiter inside the buffer, or nil
if the delimiter is not
-- found). The nselib match.lua
module provides functions for
-- matching against regular expressions or byte counts. These functions are
-- suitable as arguments to receive_buf

is a Boolean value
-- controlling whether the delimiting string is returned along with the
-- received data (true) or discarded (false).
--
-- On success the function returns true along with the received data. On failure
-- the function returns false
or nil
along with an
-- error string. Possible error messages are the same as those that the other
-- receive functions can return, with the addition of
-- * "Error inside splitting-function"
: The first argument was a function which caused an error while being called.
-- * "Error in string.find (nsockobj:receive_buf)!"
