Amass - In-depth DNS Enumeration And Network Mapping


The OWASP Amass tool suite obtains subdomain names by scraping data sources, recursive brute forcing, crawling web archives, permuting/altering names and reverse DNS sweeping. Additionally, Amass uses the IP addresses obtained during resolution to discover associated netblocks and ASNs. All the information is then used to build maps of the target networks.

Information Gathering Techniques Used:
  • DNS: Basic enumeration, Brute forcing (upon request), Reverse DNS sweeping, Subdomain name alterations/permutations, Zone transfers (upon request)
  • Scraping: Ask, Baidu, Bing, CommonCrawl, DNSDB, DNSDumpster, DNSTable, Dogpile, Exalead, FindSubdomains, Google, IPv4Info, Netcraft, PTRArchive, Riddler, SiteDossier, ThreatCrowd, VirusTotal, Yahoo
  • Certificates: Active pulls (upon request), Censys, CertDB, CertSpotter, Crtsh, Entrust
  • APIs: BinaryEdge, BufferOver, CIRCL, HackerTarget, PassiveTotal, Robtex, SecurityTrails, Shodan, Twitter, Umbrella, URLScan
  • Web Archives: ArchiveIt, ArchiveToday, Arquivo, LoCArchive, OpenUKArchive, UKGovArchive, Wayback

How to Install

Prebuilt
A precompiled version is available for each release.
If your operating environment supports Snap, you can click here to install, or perform the following from the command-line:
sudo snap install amass
On Kali, follow these steps to install Snap and Amass + use AppArmor (for autoload):
sudo apt install snapd
 sudo systemctl start snapd
 sudo systemctl enable snapd
 sudo systemctl start apparmor
 sudo systemctl enable apparmor
Add the Snap bin directory to your PATH:
export PATH=$PATH:/snap/bin
Periodically, execute the following command to update all your snap packages:
sudo snap refresh
For Homebrew on Mac, the following two commands will install Amass into your macOS environment:
brew tap caffix/amass
 brew install amass

Using Docker
  1. Build the Docker image:
sudo docker build -t amass https://github.com/OWASP/Amass.git
  1. Run the Docker image:
sudo docker run amass --passive -d example.com
The wordlists maintained in the Amass git repository are available in /wordlists/ within the docker container. For example, to use all.txt:
sudo docker run amass -w /wordlists/all.txt -d example.com

From Source
If you prefer to build your own binary from the latest release of the source code, make sure you have a correctly configured Go >= 1.10 environment. More information about how to achieve this can be found on the golang website. Then, take the following steps:
  1. Download OWASP Amass:
go get -u github.com/OWASP/Amass/...
  1. If you wish to rebuild the binaries from the source code:
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/OWASP/Amass
 
 go install ./...
At this point, the binaries should be in $GOPATH/bin.
  1. Several wordlists can be found in the following directory:
ls $GOPATH/src/github.com/OWASP/Amass/wordlists/
