Running tlsx

Input for tlsx

tlsx requires ip to make TLS connection and accept multiple format as listed below:

173.0.84.0/24 # CIDR input
93.184.216.34 # IP input
example.com # DNS input
example.com:443 # DNS input with port
https://example.com:443 # URL input port

Input host can be provided using -host / -u flag, and multiple values can be provided using comma-separated input, similarly file input is supported using -list / -l flag.

Example of comma-separated host input:

$ tlsx -u 93.184.216.34,example.com,example.com:443,https://example.com:443 -silent

Example of file based host input:

$ tlsx -list host_list.txt

Port Input:

tlsx connects on port 443 by default, which can be customized using -port / -p flag, single or multiple ports can be specified using comma sperated input or new line delimited file containing list of ports to connect.

Example of comma-separated port input:

$ tlsx -u hackerone.com -p 443,8443

Example of file based port input:

$ tlsx -u hackerone.com -p port_list.txt

Note:

When input host contains port in it, for example, 8.8.8.8:443 or hackerone.com:8443, port specified with host will be used to make TLS connection instead of default or one provided using -port / -p flag.

TLS Probe (default run)

This will run the tool against the given CIDR range and returns hosts that accepts tls connection on port 443.

$ echo 173.0.84.0/24 | tlsx

For ease of automation, optionally -resp-only flag can be used to list only dns names in CLI output.

$ echo 173.0.84.0/24 | tlsx -san -cn -silent -resp-only

subdomains obtained from TLS certificates can be further piped to other PD tools for further inspection, here is an example piping tls subdomains to dnsx to filter passive subdomains and passing to httpx to list hosts running active web services.

$ echo 173.0.84.0/24 | tlsx -san -cn -silent -resp-only | dnsx -silent | httpx

JSON Output

tlsx does support multiple probe flags to query specific data, but all the information is always available in JSON format, for automation and post processing using -json output is most convenient option to use.

Configuration

Scan Mode

tlsx provides multiple options to make TLS connection, crypto/tls being default option which is standard crypto library in Go.

Available TLS Connection modes:

  • ctls (crypto/tls) - default
  • ztls (zcrypto/tls)
  • auto (ctls with ztls fallback support)

Some pointers for the specific mode / library is highlighted in linked discussions, auto mode is supported to ensure the maximum coverage and scans for the hosts running older version of TLS by retrying the connection using ztls mode upon any connection error.

An example of using ztls mode to scan website using old / outdated TLS version.

$ echo tls-v1-0.badssl.com | tlsx -port 1010 -sm ztls

tls-v1-0.badssl.com:1010

Pre-Handshake (Early Termination)

tlsx supports terminating SSL connection early which leads to faster scanning and less connection request (disconnecting after TLS serverhello and certificate data is gathered).

For more detail, please refer to Hunting-Certificates-And-Servers by @erbbysam

An example of using -pre-handshake mode:

$ tlsx -u example.com -pre-handshake

example.com:443

Note:

pre-handshake mode utilizes ztls (zcrypto/tls) which also means the support is limited till TLS v1.2 as TLS v1.3 is not supported by ztls library.

TLS Version

Minimum and Maximum TLS versions can be specified using -min-version and -max-version flags, as default these value are set by underlying used library.

The acceptable values for TLS version is specified below.

  • ssl30
  • tls10
  • tls11
  • tls12

Here is an example using max-version to scan for hosts supporting an older version of TLS, i.e TLS v1.0

$ tlsx -u example.com -max-version tls10

Custom Cipher

Supported custom cipher can provided using -cipher-input / -ci flag, supported cipher list for each mode is available at wiki page.

$ tlsx -u example.com -ci TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 -cipher
$ tlsx -u example.com -ci cipher_list.txt -cipher
