Tentacle is a POC vulnerability verification and exploits framework. It supports a free extension of exploits and uses POC scripts. It supports calls to Zoomeye, Fofa, Shodan, and other APIs to perform bulk vulnerability verification for multiple targets.Â
Tentacle is an open-source vulnerability verification and exploits framework that is coded in Python3. It supports easy addition of exploits and even facilitates bulk vulnerability verification across targets using search engines such as Google, Baidu, Bing and internet-connected search engines such as ZoomEye, FOFA, Shodan, etc.
This tool also supports verification of commonly exposed default passwords for the following services and web applications such as ActiveMQ, DB2, FTP, MySQL, Oracle, phpMyAdmin, POP3, RabbitMQ, Redis, rsync, SMB, SMTP, SQL Server, SSH, Sybase, TELNET, Tomcat, WebLogic, and Zabbix.
Tentacle also checks for common vulnerabilities such as storage of backup files, existence of crossdomain.xml, cross-site tracing, open directory listing, HTTP OPTIONS method testing, information disclosure via various other files such as web config, etc.

Tentacle supports verification of the following exploits
After installing Tentacle on a new setup off Parrot Security OS, I got two errors. I managed to solve both of these by these commands:
1
sudo apt install python3-openpyxl
1
sudo pip3 install aiohttp_socks
Â
Usage
When you run Tentacle for the first time, the configuration file conf/tentacle.conf will be generated automatically.
Â
1
nano tentacle.conf
1
vim tentacle.conf
Â
Â
Show help for tentacle.
1
python3 tentacle.py --help
Â
Show all modules, and you can see it in script path.
1
python3 tentacle.py --show
Â
Show all function of module by -f show or -f help
1
python3 tentacle.py -m script/web/web_status -f show
1
python3 tentacle.py -m script/web/web_status -f help
Â
Load target by iS/iN/iF/iT/iX/iE/gg/sd/ze/ff
Â
Scan port and then it will try to send the poc

Â
Use function of a module by -m and -f (e.g. -m web_status -f prove), and you should make sure the function of the module is exist.

Dear people, I do a lot of things on the Internet and I do it all for free. If I don’t get enough to support myself, it becomes very difficult to maintain my web presence, which takes a lot of time, and the server costs also have to be paid.
