miniss

miniss (mini ss) displays a list of open listening sockets. It is a minimal alternative to ss or netstat.

The goal of miniss is not to reinvent the wheel but rather to offer a static binary that can be deployed by pentester or CTF players on containers or hardened environment where the classical ss or netstat binaries have been removed.

Build

A pre-compiled static binary is provided only for x86_64-linux-gnu, see releases. Else read the build instructions.

Install
