InitPenTest

Initializes a pentest folder structure and creates two scripts: initial_scan.sh and detailed_scan.sh. The first script runs a full nmap scan on the specified IP address and stores the results in scans/initial.nmap. The second script runs a detailed nmap scan on the open ports found in scans/initial.nmap, limits the scope of the scan to the IP's subnet, and stores the results in scans/detailed.nmap.

Usage:

initpentest [folder] [ip_address]

Installation

I did not add the #!/bin/bash command on top of the file for the simple reason that I am sourcing this file from my .zshrc, mostly our of preference: I also removed the .sh extension, again, out of preference for partial scripts.

# Loading initpentest  
source ~/.initpentest

Structure

Here is an overview of the structure it creates

.[folder]
├── exploit
├── loot
├── Notes.md
├── scans
│   ├── detailed.nmap
│   └── initial.nmap
└── scripts
    ├── detailed_scan.sh
    └── initial_scan.sh

The Notes.md folder has a basic header pre-filled with the name of the folder (usually the name of the machine targetted) along with the IP Address with this format:

Important: This format within Notes.md is used by the scripts to target the right IP Address.

# Machine Name
## <Ip Address>

This was a test project with OpenAI ChatGPT, so credits where due, but I worked all night to fix the dump mistakes it would do. I probably made some more mistakes myself in the process.
