RouterOS Scanner

Forensics tool for Mikrotik devices. Search for suspicious properties and weak security points that need to be fixed on the router.

This tool’s functionalities include the following:

  • Get the version of the device and map it to CVEs
  • Check for scheduled tasks
  • Look for traffic redirection rules
  • Look for DNS cache poisoning
  • Look for default ports change
  • Look for non-default users
  • Look for suspicious files
  • Look for proxy, socks and FW rules

Executing and arguments

This tool requires Python 3.8 or later.

Install required Python packages

pip install -r requirements.txt

The arguments:

args Description Must / Optional
-i The tested Mikrotik IP address Must
-p The tested Mikrotik SSH port Optional
-u User name with admin Permissions Must
-ps The password of the given user name (empty password by default) Optional
-J Print the results as json format (prints txt format by default) Optional
-concise Print a shortened text output focusing on recommendations and suspicious data Optional
-update Update the CVE Json file (the file is updated automatically if it hasn't been updated in the last month) Optional

Executing examples:

 ./main.py -i 192.168.88.1 -u admin
 ./main.py -i 192.168.88.1 -p 22 -u admin
 ./main.py -i 192.168.88.1 -p 2000 -u admin -ps 123456
 ./main.py -i 192.168.88.1 -p 2000 -u admin -ps 123456 -J

Output:

The output includes 3 sections for each test:

  1. raw data - all the data we search in.
  2. suspicious - things we found out as suspicious - should be checked if they are legitimate or malicious.
  3. recommendation - things we found out as weak security points and recommendations for fixing them.

More info & solution:

Researchers developed this forensic tool while investigating how MikroTik devices are used in Trickbot C2 infrastructure. You can read more about the research here.

Microsoft Defender for IoT is an agentless network-layer security solution that allows organizations to continuously monitor and discover assets, detect threats, and manage vulnerabilities in their IoT/OT and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) devices, on-premises and in Azure-connected environments.
