Attempts to gain root access to all servers and present them in an easy-to-see and use format.
Overview
This script gets all servers, opens all ports possible, and attempts to gain root access, all while presenting the user with easy-to-read and useful information.
How to Use
Create each script below and paste the code appropriately.
Run the script!
Commands:
run RootAccessor.ns
Runs the script against all servers. Displays results.
run RootAccessor.ns -h
brings up the help menu for the script. The script does not process any further if it contains “-h” as an argument.
run RootAccessor.ns -s
lists all servers with root access as a space-separated list if users want to utilize them as arguments in other scripts.
run RootAccessor.ns joesguns n00dles max-hardware
attempts to gain root access on target servers (each argument is a server name).
run RootAccessor.ns joesguns n00dles max-hardware -s run RootAccessor.ns -s joesguns n00dles max-hardware run RootAccessor.ns joesguns n00dles -s max-hardware
“-s” can be added as an argument at any time.
RootAccessor.ns Script
Create a new script with whatever name you’d like. I called mine “RootAccessor.ns”. Paste the below code into it. It contains 3 functions that make up the entire script.
/** @param {NS} ns **/ import {allServers} from "./lib-getServers.ns"; export async function main(ns) { var approved = []; var deniedhack = []; var deniedports = []; var denied = []; var other = []; var files = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]; var maxPorts = 0; //suppress all default log messages ns.tail(); ns.disableLog('ALL'); ns.clearLog(); //check for help argument. if (ns.args.includes("-h")) {help(ns); return;} ns.print("For script help use argument '-h' "); ns.print("Executing..."); //process argument calls var target = []; if (ns.args.length > 0) { if (ns.args[0] === "-s") { target = await allServers(ns); } else { target = ns.args; } } else { target = await allServers(ns); } //check max ports available to open if (ns.fileExists("BruteSSH.exe")) {files[0] = 1; maxPorts++; ns.print("BruteSSH.exe file exists");} else {ns.print("BruteSSH.exe not found");} if (ns.fileExists("FTPCrack.exe")) {files[1] = 1; maxPorts++; ns.print("FTPCrack.exe file exists");} else {ns.print("FTPCrack.exe not found");} if (ns.fileExists("relaySMTP.exe")) {files[2] = 1; maxPorts++; ns.print("relaySMTP.exe file exists");} else {ns.print("relaySMTP.exe not found");} if (ns.fileExists("HTTPWorm.exe")) {files[3] = 1; maxPorts++; ns.print("HTTPWorm.exe file exists");} else {ns.print("HTTPWorm.exe not found");} if (ns.fileExists("SQLInject.exe")) {files[4] = 1; maxPorts++; ns.print("SQLInject.exe file exists");} else {ns.print("SQLInject.exe not found");} ns.print("Maximum ports able to open: [" + maxPorts + "]\n"); //open all ports and attempt root access for (const n of target) { if (ns.serverExists(n)) { const serverHackLvl = ns.getServerRequiredHackingLevel(n); const playerHackingLvl = ns.getHackingLevel(); if (playerHackingLvl >= serverHackLvl) { if (files[0]) { ns.brutessh(n); } if (files[1]) { ns.ftpcrack(n); } if (files[2]) { ns.relaysmtp(n);} if (files[3]) { ns.httpworm(n); } if (files[4]) { ns.sqlinject(n);} gainRootAccess(n, maxPorts, approved, deniedports, denied, other, ns); } else { denied.push(n); deniedhack.push("[DENIED] - hack level too low [" + playerHackingLvl + '/' + serverHackLvl + "] for " + n); } } } //output results if (deniedhack.length>0) ns.print(deniedhack.join("\n")); if (deniedports.length>0) ns.print(deniedports.join("\n")); if (other.length>0) ns.print("[ALREADY ACQUIRED ROOT ACCESS] for " + other.join("\n[ALREADY ACQUIRED ROOT ACCESS] for ")); if (approved.length>0) ns.print("[ROOT ACCESS APPROVED] for " + approved.join("\n[ROOT ACCESS APPROVED] for ")); if (ns.args.includes("-s")) { ns.print("Copiable list of rooted servers:\n" + approved.join(" ") + other.join(" ")); } } function gainRootAccess(server, portCount, approved, deniedports, denied, other, ns) { if (!ns.hasRootAccess(server)) { if (portCount >= ns.getServerNumPortsRequired(server)) { ns.nuke(server); approved.push(server); } else { denied.push(server); deniedports.push("[ROOT ACCESS DENIED] for " + server + " - Not enough open PORTS"); } } else { other.push(server); } } function help(ns) { const text = [ "<========================HELP=====================>\n", "- Script takes in [N] arguments or none at all.", " [N]: server names that you wish to be rooted.", " e.g.: run rootAccessor.ns n00dles joesguns zer0\n", "- No args will attempt root access on all servers\n", "- include argument '-s' as an argument to print", " copiable list of all rooted servers\n", "<=================================================>" ]; ns.print(text.join("\n")); }
lib-getServers.ns Script
Create a new script named “lib-getServers.ns” and paste the below helper function.
/** @param {NS} ns **/ export function allServers(ns, removePurchased=true) { if (removePurchased) var pservs = ns.getPurchasedServers(); const nodes = new Set; function dfs(node) { nodes.add(node); for (const neighbor of ns.scan(node)) { if (removePurchased) { if (!pservs.includes(neighbor)) { if (!nodes.has(neighbor)) { dfs(neighbor); } } } else { if (!nodes.has(neighbor)) { dfs(neighbor); } } } } dfs("home"); return [...nodes]; }
