Using Self-Hosted server
Using the server flag, interactsh-client can be configured to connect with a self-hosted Interactsh server, this flag accepts single or multiple server separated by comma.
interactsh-client -server hackwithautomation.com
We maintain a list of default Interactsh servers to use with interactsh-client:
- oast.pro
- oast.live
- oast.site
- oast.online
- oast.fun
- oast.me
Default servers are subject to change/rotate/down at any time, thus we recommend using a self-hosted interactsh server if you are experiencing issues with the default server.
Using Protected Self-Hosted server
Using the token flag, interactsh-client can connect to a self-hosted Interactsh server that is protected with authentication.
interactsh-client -server hackwithautomation.com -token XXX
Using with Notify
If you are away from your terminal, you may use notify to send a real-time interaction notification to any supported platform.
interactsh-client | notify
Interactsh Web Client
Interactsh-web is a free and open-source web client that displays Interactsh interactions in a well-managed dashboard in your browser. It uses the browser's local storage to store and display all incoming interactions. By default, the web client is configured to use interact.sh as default interactsh server, and supports other self-hosted public/authencaited interactsh servers as well.
A hosted instance of interactsh-web client is available at https://app.interactsh.com
Interactsh Docker Client
A Docker image is also provided with interactsh client that is ready to run and can be used in the following way:
docker run projectdiscovery/interactsh-client:latest
docker run projectdiscovery/interactsh-client:latest

Note: While running interactsh server on Cloud VM's like Amazon EC2, Goolge Cloud Platform (GCP), it is required to update the security rules to allow "all traffic" for inbound connections. |
There are more useful capabilities supported by interactsh-server that are not enabled by default and are intended to be used only by self-hosted servers.
Interactsh Server behind a reverse proxy
interactsh-server might require custom ports for services if the default ones are already busy. If this is the case but still default ports are required as part of the payload, it's possible to configure interactsh-server behind a reverse proxy, by port-forwarding HTTP/TCP/UDP based services via http/stream proxy directive (proxy_pass).
Nginx
Assuming that interactsh-server essential services run on the following ports:
- HTTP: 8080/TCP
- HTTPS: 8440/TCP
- SMTP: 8025/TCP
- DNS: 8053/UDP
- DNS: 8053/TCP
The nginx configuration file to forward the traffic would look like the following one:
# http/https
http {
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name mysite.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/interactsh.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/interactsh.key;
location / {
proxy_pass https://interachsh.mysite.com:80/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
}
}
}
stream {
# smtp
server {
listen 25;
proxy_pass interachsh.mysite.com:8025;
}
# dns
server {
listen 53;
proxy_pass interachsh.mysite.com:8053;
}
server {
listen 53 udp;
proxy_pass interachsh.mysite.com:8053;
}
}

Custom Server Index
Index page for http server can be customized while running custom interactsh server using -http-index flag.
interactsh-server -d hackwithautomation.com -http-index banner.html
{DOMAIN} placeholder is also supported in index file to replace with server domain name.
Static File Hosting
Interactsh http server optionally enables file hosting to help in security testing. This capability can be used with a self-hosted server to serve files for common payloads for XSS, XXE, RCE and other attacks.
To use this feature, -http-directory flag can be used which accepts diretory as input and files are served under /s/ direcotry.
interactsh-server -d hackwithautomation.com -http-directory ./paylods
Dynamic HTTP Response
Interactsh http server optionally enables responding with dynamic HTTP response by using query parameters. This feature can be enabled by using -dr or -dynamic-resp flag.
The following query parameter names are supported - body, header, status and delay. Multiple header parameters can be specified to set multiple headers.
- body (response body)
- header (response header)
- status (response status code)
- delay (response time)
curl -i 'https://hackwithautomation.com/x?status=307&body=this+is+example+body&delay=1&header=header1:value1&header=header1:value12'
HTTP/2 307
header1: value1
header1: value12
server: hackwithautomation.com
x-interactsh-version: 1.0.7
content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
content-length: 20
date: Tue, 13 Sep 2022 12:31:05 GMT
this is example body
Note:
- Dynamic HTTP Response feature is disabled as default.
- By design, this feature lets anyone run client-side code / redirects using your interactsh domain / server
- Using this option with an isolated domain is recommended to avoid security impact on associated root/subdomains.
Wildcard Interaction
To enable wildcard interaction for configured Interactsh domain wildcard flag can be used with implicit authentication protection via the auth flag if the token flag is omitted.
interactsh-server -domain hackwithautomation.com -wildcard

Supported Protocols
FTP
FTP support can be enabled with the -ftp flag and is recommended for self-hosted instances only. The FTP agent simulates a fully-functional FTP server agent with authentication that captures authentications with every file operation. By default, the agent listens on port 21 (this can be changed with the -ftp-port flag) and lists in read-only mode the content of the OS default temporary directory (customizable with the -ftp-dir option).
Example of starting the FTP daemon and capturing a login interaction:
$ sudo go run . -ftp -skip-acme -debug -domain localhost

External Supported Protocols
SMB
The -smb flag enables the Samba protocol (only for self-hosted instances). The samba protocol uses impacket smbserver class to simulate a samba daemon share listening on port 445 unless changed by the -smb-port flag. When enabled, interactsh executes under the hoods the script smb_server.py. Hence Python3 and impacket dependencies are required.
Example of enabling the samba server:
$ sudo interactsh-server -smb -skip-acme -debug -domain localhost
Responder
Responder is wrapped in a docker container exposing various service ports via docker port forwarding. The interactions are retrieved by monitoring the shared log file Responder-Session.log in the temp folder. To use it on a self-hosted instance, it's necessary first to build the docker container and tag it as interactsh(docker daemon must be configured correctly and with port forwarding capabilities):
docker build . -t interactsh
Then run the service with:
$ sudo interactsh-server -responder -d localhost
On default settings, the daemon listens on the following ports:
- UDP: 137, 138, 1434
- TCP: 21 (might collide with FTP daemon if used), 110, 135, 139, 389, 445, 1433, 3141, 3128
Interactsh Integration
Use as library
The examples uses interactsh client library to get external interactions for a generated URL by making a http request to the URL.
Nuclei - OAST
Nuclei vulnerability scanner utilize Interactsh for automated payload generation and detection of out of band based security vulnerabilities.
See Nuclei + Interactsh Integration blog and guide document for more information.
Cloud Metadata
Interactsh server supports DNS records for cloud metadata services, which is useful for testing SSRF-related vulnerabilities.
Currently supported metadata services:
Example:
- aws.interact.sh points to 169.254.169.254
- alibaba.interact.sh points to 100.100.100.200
