What is the NmapMCP MCP Server?

Nmapmcp mcp server connects NmapMCP to AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. NmapMCP is a robust integration of the Nmap scanning tool with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling seamless network scanning capabilities within MCP-compatible environments. This project allows users to perform various network scans, such as top ports scanning, DNS brute force, and more.

What NmapMCP does

NmapMCP is a robust integration of the Nmap scanning tool with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling seamless network scanning capabilities within MCP-compatible environments. This project allows users to perform various network scans, such as top ports scanning, DNS brute force, and more, directly through MCP interfaces.

Key capabilities

  • Top Ports Scanning: — Quickly identify the most commonly used ports on target hosts to assess potential entry points
  • DNS Brute Force: — Discover subdomains associated with a target domain, aiding in comprehensive domain mapping
  • List Scan: — Obtain a list of active hosts within a specified range without port scanning, useful for network inventory
  • OS Detection: — Determine the operating system of a target host by analyzing network responses, assisting in vulnerability assessment
  • Version Detection: — Identify service versions running on open ports to detect outdated or vulnerable services
  • FIN Scan: — Perform stealthy scans by sending FIN packets to detect open ports without establishing a full connection
  • Idle Scan: — Conduct highly stealthy scans by leveraging idle hosts to probe target systems, minimizing detection risks
  • Ping Scan: — Detect active hosts in a network by sending ICMP echo requests, useful for network mapping
