Hello everyone in this
video. We are going to learn about IMAP capabilities
using nmap.
So what is IMAP IMAP stands for internet message
access protocol which is
one of the protocol which is used for receiving
of emails.
We have also seen a protocol which is used for receiving of
emails, which is POP3.
IMAP works on the port number 1 4
3
Sometimes it's also works over SSL on
different port number which is 445.
so
if you discover the IMAP capabilities, then
you are able to identify that how
the IMAP is able to communicate with
the target web servers. Also, you
are able to identify the server version and
the IP address where the IMAP service is
being running.
and installed
you can always add The Hyphen V to
see the output in verbose mode and the example of
doing this particular scan is given over here.
So it is the Practical time and let's see how
you can run this particular scan to
enumerate the IMAP capabilities.
As you can see here. This is the particular command
that we are going to use.
To enumerate the IMAP capabilities as you can see I have
run the scan already and this can
has been completed successfully.
Perfect.
If you look over here, the script that we are used
is IMAP capabilities to identify the
capabilities which are running off IMAP. This
is the output of the NEC script as
you can see login referrals capabilities ID have
post login listed pre-log in more authentication
plane triple zero one, which basically
means that IMAP is
authenticated and you have to log in to see
the IMAP.
configuration
Also, if you look at the bottom over
here, then we have identified the particular
server where the IMAP is configured for
is hacker udemy.com and the IP address
is again this loopback IB, which is
our computers IP address, which is our systems.
Loopback IP address.
I hope you guys understood how you can
perform this particular scan and detect the capabilities.
Thank you.
