Can you run this for infinite time for capturing data?

yes, but lots of time it will be the same data, so need to filter it.

If you enable STARTTLS mode, Python crashes with TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface - you need to either run bytes(string, "utf-8") or string.encode("utf-8") on the offending lines (123, 126, and 130), like so:

        s.send('ehlo starttlstest\n'.encode("utf-8"))
        if not 'STARTTLS'.encode("utf-8") in re:
        s.send('starttls\n'.encode("utf-8"))

String values and binary values don't mix well.

@danhunsaker it is shorter to just prefix those lines with b:

s.send(b'ehlo starttlstest\n')

if not b'STARTTLS' in re:

s.send(b'starttls\n')

Updated the gist

Not an option I had discovered. Will update locally accordingly.

STARTTLS support is rather ... stupid. It should check the protocol (by checking the initial server message) and send a feature detection/TLS start command accordingly. Issue upstream as well, of course.

Or alternately the approach adapted from the OpenSSL binary, provided here, properly updated for python 3, of course. Prefer more automated approaches, myself, whenever possible.

I am getting the error as follows:

bleeding...
File "\Path\hb-test.py", line 51
pdat = ''.join(chr(c) if 32 <= c <= 126 else '.' for c in lin)
Syntax Error: invalid syntax

(indicating the error at 'if' part in the line).

What would be the issue and how to resolve the same?

Thanks

Hi i am getting following error msg. when executing query, can you look at it and say what could be a problem?

File "main.py", line 21
return decode_hex(x.replace(' ', '').replace('\n', ''))[0]

Sorry for my stupid question but can you please explain me how all of its works, i am definately maling some logic error in process. I am running script under Python 3x, through CMD line C:/python34/python.exe test.py
where i have to identify server to scan? where i have to identify port to scan?
