2. Scan Details
#

Introduction
#

This report outlines the results of a network vulnerability scan conducted on the system with IP address 192.168.238.135 using Nmap. The goal is to identify any potential vulnerabilities by checking open ports, services, and version details.

Scope of the Scan
#

  • Target:
    The target IP address was generated from ifconfig.

  • Type of Scan:
    An overall scan was performed to detect vulnerabilities, service detection, and script-based analysis.

Commands Used:
#

nmap -sV  # Service detection
nmap --script vuln 192.168.238.135  # Vulnerability scanning
nmap -A -T4 -oX scan.xml 192.168.238.135  # Aggressive scan with XML output

3. Scan Results Overview
#

The scan revealed 1 open port on the target system while the rest were closed. Among the services detected, outdated SSH and HTTP services were identified as vulnerabilities.

4. Detailed Findings
#

The scan results were converted to XML format to facilitate further analysis and HTML-based reporting.

5. Vulnerability Analysis and Recommendations
#

Identified Vulnerability:
#

  • Service: OpenSSH (Port 22)
  • CVE: CVE-2016-0777
  • Risk: Unauthorized access potential
  • Recommendation: Upgrade OpenSSH to version 7.4 or higher and implement key-based authentication.

6. Conclusion
#

Nmap is an effective scanning tool, but additional assessments with OpenVAS will be conducted to compare results. The system at 192.168.238.135 requires updates for SSH and HTTP services. Regular patching and firewall implementation are recommended.
