description	ONVIF device security scanner for testing authentication and brute-forcing credentials. Use when you need to assess security of IP cameras or ONVIF-enabled devices.

Onvifscan - ONVIF Security Scanner

You are helping the user scan ONVIF devices for security issues including authentication bypasses and weak credentials using the onvifscan tool.

Tool Overview

Onvifscan is an ONVIF device security scanner that can:

When the user asks to scan ONVIF devices, test IP cameras, or assess IoT device security:

Determine scan type:
- auth: Authentication and access control testing (recommended to start)
- brute: Credential brute-forcing on password-protected endpoints
Get target information:
- Ask for the device URL/IP
- Determine which scan type to run
- Check if they have custom wordlists
Execute the scan:
- Use the onvifscan command from the iothackbot bin directory
- Format: onvifscan <subcommand> <url> [options]

Tests ONVIF endpoints for authentication requirements:

onvifscan auth http://192.168.1.100

Options:

Attempts credential brute-forcing on protected endpoints:

onvifscan brute http://192.168.1.100

Options:

--usernames <file>: Custom usernames wordlist (default: built-in onvif-usernames.txt)
--passwords <file>: Custom passwords wordlist (default: built-in onvif-passwords.txt)
--format text|json|quiet: Output format

Quick auth check on a device:

onvifscan auth 192.168.1.100

Auth check with verbose output:

onvifscan auth http://192.168.1.100:8080 -v

Brute force with custom wordlists:

onvifscan brute 192.168.1.100 --usernames custom-users.txt --passwords custom-pass.txt

URLs can omit http:// - it will be added automatically
Auth scan is non-destructive and safe to run
Use -a flag with caution - may test destructive endpoints
Brute force is rate-limited to prevent device overload (max 20 attempts by default)
Built-in wordlists located in wordlists/ directory
