What is Metabigor?

Metabigor by j3ssie is an Intelligence tool, its goal is to do OSINT tasks and more but without any API key.

OSINT stands for “open source intelligence.” It’s all about finding the information you can legally access, through legal means. OSINT is mainly done online, but it can be done offline as well. Pentesters use OSINT to research their targets, and threat intelligence specialists use OSINT to learn about cyber threats.

Installation

go install github.com/j3ssie/metabigor@latest

Main features

• Searching information about IP Address, ASN and Organization.
• Wrapper for running rustscan, masscan and nmap more efficient on IP/CIDR.
• Finding more related domains of the target by applying various techniques (certificate, whois, Google Analytics, etc).
• Get Summary about IP address (powered by @thebl4ckturtle)

Usage

Discovery IP of a company/organization – metabigor net

The difference between net and netd command is that netd will get the dynamic result from the third-party source while net command will get the static result from the database.

# discovery IP of a company/organization

echo 'company' | metabigor net --org -o /tmp/result.txt

# discovery IP of an ASN

echo 'ASN1111' | metabigor net --asn -o /tmp/result.txt

cat list_of_ASNs | metabigor net --asn -o /tmp/result.txt

echo 'ASN1111' | metabigor netd --asn -o /tmp/result.txt

Finding more related domains of the target by applying various techniques (certificate, whois, Google Analytics, etc) – metabigor related

Note some of the results are not 100% accurate. Please do a manual check first before put it directly to other tools to scan.

Some specific technique require different input so please see the usage of each technique.

Using certificate to find related domains on crt.sh

# Getting more related domains by searching for certificate info

echo Target Inc | metabigor cert --json| jq -r .Domain| unfurl format %r.%t | sort -u # this is old command

# Getting more related domains by searching for certificate info

echo example Inc | metabigor related -s cert

Wrapper for running rustscan, masscan and nmap more efficient on IP/CIDR – metabigor scan

This command will require you to install masscan, rustscan and nmap first or at least the pre-scan result of them.

# Only run masscan full ports

echo 1.2.3.4/24 | metabigor scan -o result.txt

# only run nmap detail scan based on pre-scan data

echo 1.2.3.4:21 | metabigor scan -s -c 10

echo 1.2.3.4:21 | metabigor scan --tmp /tmp/raw-result/ -s -o result.txt

# run nmap detail scan based on pre-scan data of rustscan

echo 1.2.3.4 -> [80,443,2222] | metabigor scan -R

# only run scan with zmap

cat ranges.txt | metabigor scan -p 443,80 -z

Using Reverse Whois to find related domains

echo example.com | metabigor related -s whois

Getting more related by searching for Google Analytics ID

# Get it directly from the URL

echo https://example.com | metabigor related -s google-analytic

# You can also search it directly from the UA ID too

metabigor related -s google-analytic -i UA-9152XXX --debug

Get Summary about IP address (powered by @thebl4ckturtle) – metabigor ipc

This will show you the summary of the IP address provided like ASN, Organization, Country, etc.

cat list_of_ips.txt | metabigor ipc --json

Extract Shodan IPInfo from internetdb.shodan.io

echo 1.2.3.4 | metabigor ip -open

1.2.3.4:80

1.2.3.4:443

# lookup CIDR range

echo 1.2.3.4/24 | metabigor ip -open -c 20

1.2.3.4:80

1.2.3.5:80

# get raw JSON response

echo 1.2.3.4 | metabigor ip -json
