Quickstart

Basic scan

Run a basic scan against a host:

driftmux --host example.org

Scan a specific IP:

driftmux --host 193.146.75.190

Specify ports manually

If service discovery is unstable or the target is behind filtering, pass known ports explicitly:

driftmux --host 193.146.75.190 --ports 80,443,8443

This avoids relying on a discovery pass and tells Nmap exactly which ports should be inspected.

Use a profile

Passive profile:

driftmux --host example.org --profile passive

Fast profile:

driftmux --host example.org --profile fast

Deep profile:

driftmux --host example.org --profile deep

Use NVD enrichment

Run a scan and only keep vulnerabilities above a given CVSS threshold:

driftmux --host example.org \
  --vuln-backend nvd \
  --min-cvss 7.0

Run Nmap scripts

You can pass Nmap scripts to improve fingerprinting for web services:

driftmux --host example.org \
  --ports 80,443,8443 \
  --nmap-script http-title,http-server-header,http-headers,ssl-cert

Output

A typical console result looks like this:
