overview

What react2shell-scanner does

react2shell-scanner checks hosts for the React Server Components and Next.js RCE flaws CVE-2025-55182 and CVE-2025-66478. It confirms the condition instead of guessing from a version banner.

Run it after httpx has narrowed an estate to live Next.js hosts. Use -l for bulk lists, -t and --timeout for concurrency, and -q for vulnerable-only output.

Prefer this focused check when you only need these two CVEs. For broad template-driven coverage across many issues, use nuclei instead.

use cases

Where react2shell-scanner fits

Check an estate for the Next.js RCE

Scan a host list for CVE-2025-55182 and CVE-2025-66478 to find which Next.js deployments are exposed to remote code execution.

Keep output to vulnerable hosts only

Enable quiet mode so a scan over thousands of hosts returns only the vulnerable ones, ready to feed triage without filtering noise.

Verify a finding before escalating

Switch on verbose mode to see the response details behind each vulnerable host, confirming the detection before raising it.

Scan hosts with broken certificates

Use insecure mode (-k) when live targets present self-signed or mismatched TLS certs that would otherwise abort the check.

guidance

Choosing react2shell-scanner

Use react2shell-scanner to confirm the RSC/Next.js RCE on hosts you have already discovered and probed. It is a targeted CVE check, not a discovery tool, so feed it live hosts from httpx. For broad template-driven scanning across many CVEs, use nuclei.

nuclei

Template-driven scanner covering many issues. react2shell-scanner is a focused check for these two CVEs.

log4j-scan

A single-vulnerability scanner for Log4Shell. Same focused-check pattern aimed at a different flaw.

httpx

Probes and classifies hosts. Run it first so the RCE check targets only live Next.js deployments.

faq

react2shell-scanner questions

The RSC and Next.js remote-code-execution flaws CVE-2025-55182 and CVE-2025-66478, with a confirmation check rather than a version guess.

Run react2shell-scanner yourself

A host list is probed by httpx, then react2shell-scanner checks the live hosts for the Next.js RCE and writes the vulnerable hosts as output.
