26. Perform S3 Bucket Enumeration using various S3 Bucket Enumeration Tools

In this practical, we will learn how to perform S3 bucket enumeration using various S3 bucket enumeration tools.

Step 1: Install and Configure S3 Bucket Enumeration Tools​

  1. Install the following S3 bucket enumeration tools:

    • S3Scanner
    • BucketStream
    • S3Enum

  2. Configure each tool by providing the necessary API keys or credentials.

Step 2: Enumerate S3 Buckets​

  1. Run S3Scanner with the following command:

    s3scanner --target <target_domain>

    Replace <target_domain> with the domain or IP address of the target.

  2. S3Scanner will scan for open S3 buckets and provide a list of discovered buckets.

  3. Run BucketStream with the following command:

    bucketstream --target <target_domain>

    Replace <target_domain> with the domain or IP address of the target.

  4. BucketStream will continuously monitor for newly created or modified S3 buckets and display the results.

  5. Run S3Enum with the following command:

    s3enum --target <target_domain>

    Replace <target_domain> with the domain or IP address of the target.

  6. S3Enum will perform a comprehensive enumeration of S3 buckets and provide detailed information about each bucket.

Step 3: Analyze Results​

  1. Analyze the results from each tool to identify open or misconfigured S3 buckets.

  2. Pay attention to buckets that have public access or contain sensitive information.

  3. Document the findings and take appropriate actions to secure any identified vulnerabilities.

Step 4: Documenting the Process​

  1. Open a new markdown file named Practical-26.md.

  2. Write a detailed step-by-step explanation of the S3 bucket enumeration process.

  3. Use appropriate markdown tags to format the document and make it easy to read.

  4. Include any screenshots or code snippets that are relevant to the process.

  5. Save the file and submit it as part of your assignment.

Remember to always perform S3 bucket enumeration responsibly and with proper authorization.

Good luck with your assignment!
