Flan Scan is a lightweight network vulnerability scanner from Cloudflare that wraps Nmap and the vulners script to detect open ports, service versions, and matching CVEs. It runs in a Docker container, supports Kubernetes deployment, and can push reports to S3 or GCS.

Use cases

• scan my network for open ports and service versions
• find CVEs affecting hosts on my network
• run a vulnerability scanner in a container
• deploy nmap-based vulnerability scanning on Kubernetes
• generate vulnerability scan reports in latex or html
• upload nmap scan results to S3 or GCS

When to choose

• you want a simple Dockerized wrapper around Nmap with CVE matching
• you need scheduled network vulnerability scans with report output in multiple formats
• you want scan results pushed to cloud storage buckets

When to avoid

• you need an authenticated web application vulnerability scanner
• you want agent-based continuous asset monitoring rather than periodic network scans
• you need features beyond what Nmap and the vulners script provide
