LinEnum is a shell script that performs scripted local Linux enumeration and privilege escalation checks. It gathers system, user, network, and service information and flags potential privilege escalation vectors.

Use cases

  • enumerate a linux host for privilege escalation
  • find misconfigured sudo permissions on a server
  • audit cron jobs and world-writable files
  • gather system info during a pentest
  • check for weak credentials and restricted file access
  • ctf linux box enumeration

When to choose

  • you need a single self-contained shell script with no dependencies
  • you want quick local enumeration on a linux target
  • you are doing CTF or authorized penetration testing

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained tool with active development
  • you want a full vulnerability scanner rather than an enumerator
  • you cannot run scripts on the target host
