Top 12 Netcat Open-Source Projects

  • nmap

    Nmap - the Network Mapper. Github mirror of official SVN repository.

    • Project mention: NMAP-formatter: convert NMAP results to HTML, CSV, JSON, graphviz (dot), SQLite | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-26

    https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/635

    This looks like a reasonable mitigation for the lack of native JSON output.

  • websocat

    Command-line client for WebSockets, like netcat (or curl) for ws:// with advanced socat-like functions

    • Project mention: Show HN: ScaleSocket – Turn any script into a multiplayer WebSocket server | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-20

    It's similar to running netcat in server mode, wrapping a script. It's even closer to doing that using websocat [1], whereby one does not have to do the websocket header juggling.

    The main difference is that while netcat or websocat will spawn a new process for each connecting client, ScaleSocket has a concept of rooms (channels). For a room, a process is spawned once only. All clients connecting to the same room are routed to the same process. This is not straight forward to do using the forementioned tools.

    There's a small comparison page [2] where I have mentioned some alternative tools.

    Next, start a second terminal on your desktop, download rustcat wget https://github.com/robiot/rustcat/releases/download/v3.0.0/rcat-v3.0.0-linux-x86_64 -O rcat chmod +x rcat and start listening for shells: ./rcat listen -ib 55600
