Intrigue-core is an API-first intelligence gathering framework for Internet reconnaissance and research.

Setting up a development environment:
The following are presumed available and configured in your environment

• redis
• sudo
• nmap
• zmap
• masscan
• java runtime

Sudo is used to allow root access for certain commands ^ , so make sure this doesn’t require a password:

your-username ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/masscan, /usr/sbin/zmap, /usr/bin/nmap

Starting up…Make sure you have redis installed and running. (Use Homebrew if you’re on OSX).
Install all gem dependencies with Bundler (http://bundler.io/)

bundle install

Start the web and background workers. Intrigue will start on 127.0.0.0:7777.

foreman start

Using the web interface
To use the web interface, browse to http://127.0.0.1:7777
Getting started should be pretty straightforward, try running a “dns_brute_sub” task on your domain. Now, try with the “use_file” option set to true.
Now, browse to the web interface.
 

API usage via core-cli:

A command line utility has been added for convenience, core-cli.
List all available tasks:

$ bundle exec ./core-cli.rb list

Start a task:

$ bundle exec ./core-cli.rb start dns_lookup_forward DnsRecord#intrigue.io

Start a task with options:

$ bundle exec ./core-cli.rb start dns_brute_sub DnsRecord#intrigue.io resolver=8.8.8.8#brute_list=1,2,3,4,www#use_permutations=true
[+] Starting task
[+] Task complete!
[+] Start Results
  DnsRecord#www.intrigue.io
  IpAddress#192.0.78.13
[ ] End Results

Check for a list of subdomains on intrigue.io:

$ bundle exec ./core-cli.rb start dns_brute_sub DnsRecord#intrigue.io resolver=8.8.8.8#brute_list=a,b,c,proxy,test,www

Check the Alexa top 1000 domains for the existence of security headers:

$ for x in `cat data/domains.txt | head -n 1000`; do bundle exec ./core-cli.rb start dns_brute_sub DnsRecord#$x;done

API usage via rubygem

$ gem install intrigue
$ irb
> require 'intrigue'
> x =  Intrigue.new
  # Create an entity hash, must have a :type key
  # and (in the case of most tasks)  a :attributes key
  # with a hash containing a :name key (as shown below)
> entity = {
    :type => "String",
    :attributes => { :name => "intrigue.io"}
  }
  # Create a list of options (this can be empty)
> options_list = [
    { :name => "resolver", :value => "8.8.8.8" }
  ]
> x.start "example", entity_hash, options_list
> id  = x.start "example", entity_hash, options_list
> puts x.get_log id
> puts x.get_result id

API usage via curl:
You can use the tried and true curl utility to request a task run. Specify the task type, specify an entity, and the appropriate options:

$ curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "task": "example", "entity": { "type": "String", "attributes": { "name": "8.8.8.8" } }, "options": {} }' http://127.0.0.1:7777/v1/task_runs
