PentestGPT Benchmark Suite

This directory contains benchmark suites for evaluating PentestGPT's automated penetration testing capabilities. Benchmarks provide standardized test environments with realistic vulnerability scenarios across various security domains.

Current Version: PentestGPT v1.0

Table of Contents

Overview

The PentestGPT benchmark system provides a framework for evaluating automated penetration testing capabilities against standardized vulnerability challenges. Each benchmark suite contains Docker-containerized challenges with varying difficulty levels and vulnerability types.

Supported Benchmarks

XBOW Validation Benchmarks

The XBOW validation benchmark suite is the first benchmark suite supported by PentestGPT. It provides a comprehensive set of 104 vulnerability challenges designed to test automated penetration testing capabilities.

Statistics

  • Total Benchmarks: 104
  • Difficulty Levels: 3 (Level 1: Easy, Level 2: Medium, Level 3: Hard)
  • Vulnerability Categories: 15+ (SQLi, XSS, IDOR, SSTI, RCE, etc.)
  • Format: Docker containers with vulnerability challenges

Vulnerability Categories

The XBOW benchmarks cover the following vulnerability types:

Category Description Count
XSS Cross-Site Scripting 27
IDOR Insecure Direct Object Reference 16
Default Credentials Weak authentication 19
Privilege Escalation Vertical/horizontal privilege escalation 14
SSTI Server-Side Template Injection 14

JWT JWT vulnerabilities 3
SSRF Server-Side Request Forgery 3
Race Condition Concurrency vulnerabilities 1
HTTP Smuggling Request smuggling 1

Running Benchmarks

Basic Commands

# List all available benchmarks
pentestgpt-benchmark list

# Filter by difficulty level (1, 2, or 3)
pentestgpt-benchmark list --levels 1

# Filter by vulnerability tag
pentestgpt-benchmark list --tags sqli

# Show all tags for each benchmark
pentestgpt-benchmark list --show-tags

# Start a specific benchmark
pentestgpt-benchmark start XBEN-001-24

# Check running benchmarks
pentestgpt-benchmark status

# Stop a benchmark
pentestgpt-benchmark stop XBEN-001-24

Manual Testing Workflow

  1. Start a benchmark container:
pentestgpt-benchmark start XBEN-037-24
# Container will be accessible at http://0.0.0.0:<port>
  1. Connect to PentestGPT container:
make connect
  1. Run PentestGPT against the benchmark:
pentestgpt --target http://host.docker.internal:<port>
  1. Clean up when done:
pentestgpt-benchmark stop XBEN-037-24

Automated Testing

For comprehensive automated testing, use the standalone benchmark runner.

Setup

# Navigate to the runner directory
cd benchmark/standalone-xbow-benchmark-runner

# Ensure Docker is running
docker ps

Usage

# Preview what will be executed (recommended first step)
python3 run_benchmarks.py --dry-run --range 1-5 --pattern-flag

# Run a single benchmark with strict flag validation
python3 run_benchmarks.py --range 1-1 --pattern-flag

# Run multiple benchmarks
python3 run_benchmarks.py --range 1-10 --pattern-flag

# Run all 104 benchmarks
python3 run_benchmarks.py --all --pattern-flag

# Run with extended timeout (default is 15 minutes)
python3 run_benchmarks.py --range 1-10 --pattern-flag --timeout 1800

# Resume interrupted run
python3 run_benchmarks.py --resume --pattern-flag

# See all options
python3 run_benchmarks.py --help

Features

  • Automated execution: Headless benchmark testing via Docker
  • Comprehensive logging: Per-benchmark logs saved to logs/ directory
  • Flag verification: Automatic detection and validation using regex patterns
  • Resumption support: Resume interrupted runs without re-running completed benchmarks
  • Cost tracking: API cost and execution time analysis
  • Summary reports: Detailed results with success rates, costs, and timing statistics

See standalone-xbow-benchmark-runner/README.md for detailed usage instructions.

Benchmark Structure

All benchmark suites follow a consistent structure:

benchmark/
├── <benchmark-suite-name>/
│   ├── <BENCHMARK-ID>/
│   │   ├── benchmark.json        # Metadata (name, tags, level, port)
│   │   ├── docker-compose.yml    # Container configuration
│   │   ├── challenge/            # Vulnerable application code
│   │   └── solution/             # Reference solution (optional)
│   └── ...
└── standalone-<suite>-runner/    # Automated runner (optional)

XBOW Benchmark Structure

xbow-validation-benchmarks/
├── XBEN-001-24/
│   ├── benchmark.json
│   ├── docker-compose.yml
│   ├── challenge/
│   └── solution/
└── ...

Benchmark Metadata

Each benchmark.json contains:

{
  "name": "XBEN-001-24",
  "description": "SQL Injection vulnerability",
  "level": 1,
  "tags": ["sqli", "web"],
  "port": 8001,
  "flag_format": "HTB{...}"
}

Difficulty Levels

  • Level 1 (Easy): Single-step vulnerabilities, basic exploitation
  • Level 2 (Medium): Multi-step attacks, moderate complexity
  • Level 3 (Hard): Advanced exploitation, chained vulnerabilities

Adding New Benchmark Suites

PentestGPT's benchmark system is designed to support multiple benchmark suites. To add a new benchmark suite:

Requirements

  1. Directory structure: Create a new directory under benchmark/ with a descriptive name
  2. Benchmark metadata: Each challenge must have a benchmark.json file with:
    • name: Unique benchmark identifier
    • description: Brief description of the vulnerability
    • level: Difficulty level (1-3)
    • tags: List of vulnerability categories
    • port: Port the container exposes
    • flag_format: Expected flag format (e.g., FLAG{...})
  3. Docker containerization: Each challenge must have a docker-compose.yml
  4. Registry integration: Update pentestgpt/benchmark/registry.py to discover the new suite

Contributing Individual Benchmarks

To add new benchmarks to an existing suite (e.g., XBOW):

  1. Create a new directory following the suite's naming convention
  2. Add benchmark.json with appropriate metadata
  3. Create docker-compose.yml with the vulnerable application
  4. Include challenge files in challenge/ directory
  5. Optionally add reference solution in solution/
  6. Test the benchmark manually before submitting
