## Overview

SneakyScanner is deployed as a Docker container running a Flask web application with an integrated network scanner. The application requires privileged mode and host networking to perform network scans using masscan and nmap.

**Architecture:**
- **Web Application**: Flask app on port 5000 with modern web UI
- **Database**: SQLite (persisted to volume)
- **Background Jobs**: APScheduler for async scan execution
- **Scanner**: masscan, nmap, sslyze, Playwright
- **Config Creator**: Web-based CIDR-to-YAML configuration builder
- **Scheduling**: Cron-based scheduled scans with dashboard management

---

## Prerequisites

### System Requirements

- **Operating System**: Linux (Ubuntu 20.04+, Debian 11+, or similar)
- **Docker**: Version 20.10+ or Docker Engine 24.0+
- **Docker Compose**: Version 2.0+ (or docker-compose 1.29+)
- **Memory**: Minimum 2GB RAM (4GB+ recommended)
- **Disk Space**: Minimum 5GB free space
- **Permissions**: Root/sudo access for Docker privileged mode

### Network Requirements

- Outbound internet access for Docker image downloads
- Access to target networks for scanning
- Port 5000 available on host (or configure alternative)

### Install Docker and Docker Compose

**Ubuntu/Debian:**
```bash
# Install Docker
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
sudo sh get-docker.sh

# Add your user to docker group
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
newgrp docker

# Verify installation
docker --version
docker compose version
```

**Other Linux distributions:** See [Docker installation guide](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/)

---

## Quick Start

For users who want to get started immediately with the web application:

**Option 1: Automated Setup (Recommended)**

```bash
# 1. Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd SneakyScan

# 2. Run the setup script
./setup.sh

# 3. Access the web interface
# Open browser to: http://localhost:5000
# Login with password from ./admin_password.txt or ./logs/admin_password.txt
```

The setup script automatically:
- Generates secure random keys (SECRET_KEY, ENCRYPTION_KEY)
- Prompts for password or generates a random one
- Creates required directories
- Builds Docker image
- Starts the application
- Auto-initializes database on first run

**Option 2: Manual Setup**

```bash
# 1. Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd SneakyScan

# 2. Create environment file
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and set SECRET_KEY and SNEAKYSCANNER_ENCRYPTION_KEY
# Optionally set INITIAL_PASSWORD (leave blank for auto-generation)
nano .env

# 3. Build and start (database auto-initializes on first run)
docker compose up --build -d

# 4. Check logs for auto-generated password (if not set in .env)
docker compose logs web | grep "Password"
# Or check: ./logs/admin_password.txt

# 5. Access the web interface
# Open browser to: http://localhost:5000
```

**Alternative: Standalone CLI Scanner**

For quick one-off scans without the web interface:

```bash
# Build and run with standalone compose file
docker compose -f docker-compose-standalone.yml build
docker compose -f docker-compose-standalone.yml up

# Results saved to ./output/ directory
```

**Note**: `docker-compose.yml` (web application) is now the default. Use `docker-compose-standalone.yml` for CLI-only scans.

---

## Configuration

### Environment Variables

SneakyScanner is configured via environment variables. The recommended approach is to use a `.env` file.

#### Creating Your .env File

```bash
# Copy the example file
cp .env.example .env

# Generate secure keys
# SECRET_KEY: Flask session secret (64-character hex string)
python3 -c "import secrets; print('SECRET_KEY=' + secrets.token_hex(32))" >> .env

# SNEAKYSCANNER_ENCRYPTION_KEY: Fernet key for database encryption (32 url-safe base64 bytes)
python3 -c "from cryptography.fernet import Fernet; print('SNEAKYSCANNER_ENCRYPTION_KEY=' + Fernet.generate_key().decode())" >> .env

# Edit other settings as needed
nano .env
```

#### Key Configuration Options

| Variable | Description | Default | Required |
|----------|-------------|---------|----------|
| `FLASK_ENV` | Environment mode (`production` or `development`) | `production` | Yes |
| `FLASK_DEBUG` | Enable debug mode (`true` or `false`) | `false` | Yes |
| `SECRET_KEY` | Flask session secret (change in production!) | `dev-secret-key-change-in-production` | **Yes** |
| `SNEAKYSCANNER_ENCRYPTION_KEY` | Encryption key for sensitive settings | (empty) | **Yes** |
| `DATABASE_URL` | SQLite database path | `sqlite:////app/data/sneakyscanner.db` | Yes |
| `INITIAL_PASSWORD` | Password for first-run initialization (leave empty to auto-generate) | (empty) | No |
| `LOG_LEVEL` | Logging level (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR) | `INFO` | No |
| `SCHEDULER_EXECUTORS` | Number of concurrent scan threads | `2` | No |
| `SCHEDULER_JOB_DEFAULTS_MAX_INSTANCES` | Max instances of same job | `3` | No |
| `CORS_ORIGINS` | CORS allowed origins (comma-separated) | `*` | No |

**Important Security Note:**
- **ALWAYS** change `SECRET_KEY` and `SNEAKYSCANNER_ENCRYPTION_KEY` in production
- Never commit `.env` file to version control
- Use strong, randomly-generated keys

---

## First-Time Setup

### Step 1: Prepare Directories

The application needs these directories (created automatically by Docker):

```bash
# Verify directories exist
ls -la configs/ data/ output/ logs/

# If missing, create them
mkdir -p configs data output logs
```

### Step 2: Configure Scan Targets

You can create scan configurations in two ways:

**Option A: Using the Web UI (Recommended - Phase 4 Feature)**

1. Navigate to **Configs** in the web interface
2. Click **"Create New Config"**
3. Use the CIDR-based config creator for quick setup:
   - Enter site name
   - Enter CIDR range (e.g., `192.168.1.0/24`)
   - Select expected ports from dropdowns
   - Click **"Generate Config"**
4. Or use the **YAML Editor** for advanced configurations
5. Save and use immediately in scans or schedules

**Option B: Manual YAML Files**

Create YAML configuration files manually in the `configs/` directory:

```bash
# Example configuration
cat > configs/my-network.yaml <<EOF
title: "My Network Infrastructure"
sites:
  - name: "Web Servers"
    cidr: "192.168.1.0/24"  # Scan entire subnet
    expected_ports:
      - port: 80
        protocol: tcp
        service: "http"
      - port: 443
        protocol: tcp
        service: "https"
      - port: 22
        protocol: tcp
        service: "ssh"
    ping_expected: true
EOF
```

**Note**: Phase 4 introduced a powerful config creator in the web UI that makes it easy to generate configs from CIDR ranges without manually editing YAML.

### Step 3: Build Docker Image

```bash
# Build the image (takes 5-10 minutes on first run)
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml build

# Verify image was created
docker images | grep sneakyscanner
```

### Step 4: Initialize Database

**Automatic Initialization (Recommended)**

As of Phase 5, the database is automatically initialized on first run:

```bash
# Just start the application
docker compose up -d

# On first run, the entrypoint script will:
# - Detect no existing database
# - Generate a random password (if INITIAL_PASSWORD not set in .env)
# - Save password to ./logs/admin_password.txt
# - Initialize database schema
# - Create default settings and alert rules
# - Start the Flask application

# Check logs to see the auto-generated password
docker compose logs web | grep "Password"

# Or view the password file
cat logs/admin_password.txt
```

**Manual Initialization (Advanced)**

You can still manually initialize the database if needed:

```bash
# Initialize database and set application password
docker compose run --rm init-db --password "YourSecurePassword" --force

# The init-db command will:
# - Create database schema
# - Set the application password (bcrypt hashed)
# - Create default settings with encryption
# - Create default alert rules

# Verify database was created
ls -lh data/sneakyscanner.db
```

**Password Management:**
- Leave `INITIAL_PASSWORD` blank in `.env` for auto-generation
- Auto-generated passwords are saved to `./logs/admin_password.txt`
- For custom password, set `INITIAL_PASSWORD` in `.env`
- Minimum 8 characters recommended
- Use a strong, unique password
- Store securely (password manager)

**Note**: The init-db service is defined with `profiles: [tools]` in docker-compose.yml, which means it won't start automatically with `docker compose up`. However, the web service now handles initialization automatically via the entrypoint script.

### Step 5: Verify Configuration

```bash
# Check database file was created
ls -lh data/sneakyscanner.db

# Verify Docker Compose configuration
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml config
```

---

## Running the Application

### Starting the Application

```bash
# Start in detached mode (background)
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d

# View logs during startup
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs -f web

# Expected output:
# web_1  | INFO:werkzeug: * Running on http://0.0.0.0:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
```

### Accessing the Web Interface

1. Open browser to: **http://localhost:5000**
2. Login with the password you set during database initialization (username is not required - single-user mode)
3. Dashboard will display:
   - Recent scans with status indicators
   - Summary statistics (total scans, IPs, ports, services)
   - Trend charts showing infrastructure changes over time
   - Quick actions (run scan, create config, view schedules)

### Stopping the Application

```bash
# Stop containers (preserves data)
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml down

# Stop and remove volumes (WARNING: deletes all data!)
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml down -v
```

### Restarting the Application

```bash
# Restart all services
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml restart

# Restart only the web service
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml restart web
```

### Viewing Logs

```bash
# View all logs
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs

# Follow logs in real-time
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs -f

# View last 100 lines
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs --tail=100

# View logs for specific service
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs web
```

---

## Using the Web Interface

### Dashboard Overview

The dashboard provides a central view of your scanning activity:

**Key Sections:**
- **Summary Statistics**: Total scans, IPs discovered, open ports, services detected
- **Recent Scans**: Last 10 scans with status, timestamp, and quick actions
- **Trend Charts**: Port count trends over time using Chart.js
- **Quick Actions**: Buttons to run scans, create configs, manage schedules

## Volume Management

### Understanding Volumes

SneakyScanner uses several mounted volumes for data persistence:

| Volume | Container Path | Purpose | Important? |
|--------|----------------|---------|------------|
| `./configs` | `/app/configs` | Scan configuration files (managed via web UI) | Yes |
| `./data` | `/app/data` | SQLite database (contains all scan history) | **Critical** |
| `./output` | `/app/output` | Scan results (JSON, HTML, ZIP, screenshots) | Yes |
| `./logs` | `/app/logs` | Application logs (rotating file handler) | No |

**Note**: As of Phase 4, the `./configs` volume is read-write to support the web-based config creator and editor. The web UI can now create, edit, and delete configuration files directly.

### Backing Up Data

```bash
# Create backup directory
mkdir -p backups/$(date +%Y%m%d)

# Backup database
cp data/sneakyscanner.db backups/$(date +%Y%m%d)/

# Backup scan outputs
tar -czf backups/$(date +%Y%m%d)/output.tar.gz output/

# Backup configurations
tar -czf backups/$(date +%Y%m%d)/configs.tar.gz configs/
```

### Restoring Data

```bash
# Stop application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml down

# Restore database
cp backups/YYYYMMDD/sneakyscanner.db data/

# Restore outputs
tar -xzf backups/YYYYMMDD/output.tar.gz

# Restart application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
```

### Cleaning Up Old Scan Results

**Option A: Using the Web UI (Recommended)**
1. Navigate to **Scans** page
2. Select scans you want to delete
3. Click **"Delete"** button
4. Confirm deletion (removes database records and all associated files)

**Option B: Manual Cleanup**
```bash
# Find old scan results (older than 30 days)
find output/ -type f -name "scan_report_*.json" -mtime +30

# Delete old scan results and screenshots
find output/ -type f -mtime +30 -delete
find output/ -type d -empty -delete

# Note: Manual deletion doesn't remove database records
# Use the web UI or API for complete cleanup
```

**Option C: Using the API**
```bash
# Delete a specific scan (removes DB records + files)
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:5000/api/scans/{scan_id} \
  -b cookies.txt
```

## Health Monitoring

### Health Check Endpoint

SneakyScanner includes a built-in health check endpoint used by Docker's healthcheck:

```bash
# Check application health
curl http://localhost:5000/api/settings/health

# Expected response (200 OK):
# {"status": "healthy"}

# This endpoint is also used by Docker Compose healthcheck
# Defined in docker-compose.yml:
# - Interval: 60s (check every minute)
# - Timeout: 10s
# - Retries: 3
# - Start period: 40s (grace period for app startup)
```

### Docker Health Status

```bash
# Check container health status
docker ps | grep sneakyscanner-web

# View health check logs
docker inspect sneakyscanner-web | grep -A 10 Health
```

### Monitoring Logs

```bash
# Watch for errors in logs
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs -f | grep ERROR

# Check application log file
tail -f logs/sneakyscanner.log
```

---

## Troubleshooting

### Container Won't Start

**Problem**: Container exits immediately after starting

```bash
# Check logs for errors
docker compose logs web

# Common issues:
# 1. Permission issues with volumes - check directory ownership
# 2. Port 5000 already in use - change FLASK_PORT or stop conflicting service
# 3. Database initialization failed - check logs for specific error

# Check if database initialization is stuck
docker compose logs web | grep -A 20 "First Run Detected"

# If initialization failed, clean up and retry
docker compose down
rm -rf data/.db_initialized  # Remove marker file
docker compose up -d
```

### Database Initialization Fails

**Problem**: Automatic database initialization fails on first run

```bash
# Check database directory permissions
ls -la data/

# Fix permissions if needed
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER data/

# View initialization logs
docker compose logs web | grep -A 50 "Initializing database"

# Clean up and retry initialization
docker compose down
rm -rf data/sneakyscanner.db data/.db_initialized
docker compose up -d

# Or manually initialize with specific password
docker compose down
rm -rf data/sneakyscanner.db data/.db_initialized
docker compose run --rm init-db --password "YourPassword" --force
docker compose up -d
```

**Can't Find Password File**

**Problem**: Password file not created or can't be found

```bash
# Check both possible locations
cat admin_password.txt      # Created by setup.sh
cat logs/admin_password.txt  # Created by Docker entrypoint

# Check container logs for password
docker compose logs web | grep -i password

# If password file is missing, manually set one
docker compose down
docker compose run --rm init-db --password "YourNewPassword" --force
docker compose up -d
```

### Scans Fail with "Permission Denied"

**Problem**: Scanner cannot run masscan/nmap

```bash
# Verify container is running in privileged mode
docker inspect sneakyscanner-web | grep Privileged
# Should show: "Privileged": true

# Verify network mode is host
docker inspect sneakyscanner-web | grep NetworkMode
# Should show: "NetworkMode": "host"

# If not, verify docker-compose.yml has:
# privileged: true
# network_mode: host
```

### Can't Access Web Interface

**Problem**: Browser can't connect to http://localhost:5000

```bash
# Verify container is running
docker ps | grep sneakyscanner-web

# Check if Flask is listening
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml exec web netstat -tlnp | grep 5000

# Check firewall rules
sudo ufw status | grep 5000

# Try from container host
curl http://localhost:5000/api/settings/health

# Check logs for binding errors
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs web | grep -i bind
```

### Background Scans Not Running

**Problem**: Scans stay in "running" status forever

```bash
# Check scheduler is initialized
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs web | grep -i scheduler

# Check for job execution errors
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs web | grep -i "execute_scan"

# Verify APScheduler environment variables
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml exec web env | grep SCHEDULER

# Check for scan job errors
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs web | grep -E "(ERROR|Exception|Traceback)"

# Verify scanner executables are available
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml exec web which masscan nmap
```

### Config Files Not Appearing in Web UI

**Problem**: Manually created configs don't show up in web interface

```bash
# Check file permissions (must be readable by web container)
ls -la configs/

# Fix permissions if needed
sudo chown -R 1000:1000 configs/
chmod 644 configs/*.yaml

# Verify YAML syntax is valid
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml exec web python3 -c \
  "import yaml; yaml.safe_load(open('/app/configs/your-config.yaml'))"

# Check web logs for parsing errors
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs web | grep -i "config"
```

### Health Check Failing

**Problem**: Docker health check shows "unhealthy"

```bash
# Run health check manually
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml exec web \
  python3 -c "import urllib.request; print(urllib.request.urlopen('http://localhost:5000/api/settings/health').read())"

# Check if health endpoint exists
curl -v http://localhost:5000/api/settings/health

# Common causes:
# 1. Application crashed - check logs
# 2. Database locked - check for long-running scans
# 3. Flask not fully started - wait 40s (start_period)
```

## Security Considerations

### Production Deployment Checklist

- [ ] Changed `SECRET_KEY` to random value (64+ character hex string)
- [ ] Changed `SNEAKYSCANNER_ENCRYPTION_KEY` to random Fernet key
- [ ] Set strong application password via init-db
- [ ] Set `FLASK_ENV=production`
- [ ] Set `FLASK_DEBUG=false`
- [ ] Configured proper `CORS_ORIGINS` (not `*`)
- [ ] Using HTTPS/TLS (reverse proxy recommended)
- [ ] Restricted network access (firewall rules)
- [ ] Regular backups configured (database + configs)
- [ ] Log monitoring enabled
- [ ] Scheduled scans configured with appropriate frequency
- [ ] Alert rules configured (Phase 5 - coming soon)
- [ ] Webhook/email notifications configured (Phase 5 - coming soon)

### Network Security

**Privileged Mode Considerations:**
- Container runs with `--privileged` flag for raw socket access (masscan/nmap)
- This grants extensive host capabilities - only run on trusted networks
- Restrict Docker host access with firewall rules
- Consider running on dedicated scan server

**Recommendations:**
```bash
# Restrict access to port 5000 with firewall
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to any port 5000
sudo ufw enable

# Or use reverse proxy (nginx, Apache) with authentication
```

### HTTPS/TLS Setup

SneakyScanner does not include built-in TLS. For production, use a reverse proxy:

**Example nginx configuration:**
```nginx
server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name scanner.example.com;

    ssl_certificate /path/to/cert.pem;

### File Permissions

```bash
# Ensure proper ownership of data directories
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER data/ output/ logs/

# Restrict database file permissions
chmod 600 data/sneakyscanner.db

# Configs should be read-only
chmod 444 configs/*.yaml
```

## Upgrading

### Upgrading to New Version

```bash
# 1. Stop the application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml down

# 2. Backup database
cp data/sneakyscanner.db data/sneakyscanner.db.backup

# 3. Pull latest code
git pull origin master

# 4. Rebuild Docker image
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml build

# 5. Run database migrations
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml run --rm web alembic upgrade head

# 6. Start application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d

# 7. Verify upgrade
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml logs -f
curl http://localhost:5000/api/settings/health
```

### Rolling Back

If upgrade fails:

```bash
# Stop new version
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml down

# Restore database backup
cp data/sneakyscanner.db.backup data/sneakyscanner.db

# Checkout previous version
git checkout <previous-version-tag>

# Rebuild and start
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml build
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
```

## Backup and Restore

### Automated Backup Script

Create `backup.sh`:

```bash
#!/bin/bash
BACKUP_DIR="backups/$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)"
mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"

# Stop application for consistent backup
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml stop web

# Backup database
cp data/sneakyscanner.db "$BACKUP_DIR/"

# Backup outputs (last 30 days only)
find output/ -type f -mtime -30 -exec cp --parents {} "$BACKUP_DIR/" \;

# Backup configs
cp -r configs/ "$BACKUP_DIR/"

# Restart application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml start web

echo "Backup complete: $BACKUP_DIR"
```

Make executable and schedule with cron:

```bash
chmod +x backup.sh

# Add to crontab (daily at 2 AM)
crontab -e
# Add line:
0 2 * * * /path/to/SneakyScan/backup.sh
```

### Restore from Backup

```bash
# Stop application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml down

# Restore files
cp backups/YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS/sneakyscanner.db data/
cp -r backups/YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS/configs/* configs/
cp -r backups/YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS/output/* output/

# Start application
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
```
