A Bash-based automated scanner tool for detecting the CVE-2025-0133 Reflected XSS vulnerability in Palo Alto GlobalProtect Gateway & Portal using nuclei and shodanx.
Author:
Date: 2025-06-23
Severity: Medium
CVE ID: CVE-2025-0133
Vulnerability Type: Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Tested Against: Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect Portal (PAN-OS)
This tool helps penetration testers and security researchers quickly identify vulnerable domains or IPs related to the CVE-2025-0133 issue.
It leverages nuclei templates and Shodan query integration (shodanx) to find and scan targets efficiently.
- Automatically detects if input is a single domain or a file containing multiple domains/IPs
- Runs
shodanxon single domains to gather related hosts - Uses
nucleiwith a custom CVE-2025-0133 template to scan targets - Displays scan results in a clean tabular format on the command line
- Shows scan start and end times
- Prompts to save results in both
.txtand.jsonformats - Built-in help and usage instructions
- Linux environment with Bash shell
- nuclei installed and accessible in
$PATH - shodanx) installed and configured
- The
CVE-2025-0133nuclei template file located at:
/home/user/nuclei-templates/http/cves/2025/CVE-2025-0133.yaml(update path as needed)
🔹 1. Install ShodanX
pip install git+https://github.com/RevoltSecurities/ShodanX If the error shows: "error: externally-managed-environment"
pip install git+https://github.com/RevoltSecurities/ShodanX --break-system-packages
⚠️ Note:--break-system-packagesoption is needed on some systems (especially Debian/Ubuntu) to allow pip to install packages outside a virtual environment without permission errors.
👉 Make sure shodanx is available in your $PATH.
You can test it with:
shodanx -h🔹 2. Install Nuclei
go install -v github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v3/cmd/nuclei@latestCheck if installed:
nuclei -versionThen update the templates:
nuclei -update-templates┌──(user㉿administrator)-[~]
└─$ ./cve20250133.sh -h
Usage: ./cve20250133.sh <domain-or-file>
Scan CVE-2025-0133 vulnerabilities using nuclei and shodanx.
If input is a file, scan domains/IPs from the file.
If input is a domain, run shodanx to find related IPs/domains and scan them.
Options:
-h, --help, help Show this help message and exit.
