sicat

SICAT is a powerful tool designed to aggregate and search for vulnerabilities and exploits from multiple high-profile sources. It simplifies the reconnaissance phase by automatically checking reputable databases based on keywords, Nmap scan results, or detected web technologies.

Key Improvements & Features

This version of SICAT introduces significant enhancements over the original implementation:

1. Modern Web Interface

• New GUI: A stunning, dark-themed web interface accessible via --web-interface.
• Hacker Aesthetics: Features animated ASCII art, “Matrix-like” loading screens, and a minimalist search engine feel.
• Interactive: Real-time visual feedback during scans and easy-to-use toggle chips for source selection.

2. Professional Reporting

• HTML Reports: Generates detailed, interactive HTML reports (-r) using DataTables.
• Features: Sortable columns, search filtering, pagination, and a clean, responsive design matching the CLI’s dark theme.

3. Intelligent Keyword Generation

• Auto-Discovery: Automatically builds search keywords from:
  • Nmap Scans: Live IP scanning (-nmap) or XML file parsing (-nmap-file).
  • Web Technology Detection: Wappalyzer integration (-web) to identify running stacks (CMS, Server, Frameworks).
• Keyword Builder: Deduplicates and refines keywords for more accurate search results.

4. New & Enhanced Sources

Expanded search capabilities across 8 major databases:

• Exploit-DB: Classic exploit archive.
• NVD NIST: National Vulnerability Database.
• CVE.org: Official CVE records.
• GitHub: Public repositories and PoCs.
• Nuclei Templates: Community-curated vulnerability templates.
• Wordfence CVE: Nuclei templates specifically for WordPress vulnerabilities.
• Metasploit Framework: Replaceable modules.
• NSE Scripts: Nmap Scripting Engine scripts.

5. Optimized Experience

• Refined CLI: Cleaner argparse help, better console output tables, and silent mode (-s).
• Performance: Multithreaded scanning structure (where applicable) for faster gathering.

Installation

Linux / WSL / MacOS

Quickly install dependencies and add sicat to your system path using the installer script. This supports standard Debian/Ubuntu, Kali (fixes PEP 668 errors), Fedora, Arch, and MacOS environments.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/justakazh/sicat.git
cd sicat

# Make script executable
chmod +x install.sh

# Run installer
./install.sh

Windows

Double-click install.bat or run it from the command prompt. This will:

1. Check for Python and Nmap.
2. Install Nmap via Winget if missing (requires Admin).
3. Install Python dependencies.
4. Verify the sicat command is available in your PATH.

Docker

You can also run SICAT in a container to avoid dependency issues.

1. Build the image:

   docker build -t sicat .
   

2. Run the container:

   docker run --rm -it sicat -k "wordpress"
   

Manual Installation (Advanced)

# Install system-wide
pip install .

# Or for development
pip install -e .

Configuration

Some modules (like GitHub, Nuclei Templates, Wordfence CVE) require a GitHub Personal Access Token to avoid API rate limits.

1. Auto-Generate: Run sicat once, and it will create ~/.sicat/config.json.
2. Edit: Open ~/.sicat/config.json and add your token:

{
    "gh_token": "YOUR_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN"
}

Usage

CLI Mode

Basic Search:

sicat -k "WordPress 5.8"

Search Specific Sources:

sicat -k "Apache Struts" -edb -gh -nuclei

Generate HTML Report:

sicat -k "Joomla" -o results.json -r report.html

Auto-Scan via Nmap:

# Scans the target IP with Nmap first, then searches exploits for found services
sicat -nmap 192.168.1.10 -edb -cve

Auto-Scan via Web Detection:

# Detects technologies (e.g. Laravel, Vue.js) and searches exploits for them
sicat -web https://example.com -gh -nvd

Web Interface Mode

Launch the web GUI to run scans from your browser:

sicat --web-interface

Navigate to http://localhost:5000 in your browser.
