Feroxbuster
Feroxbuster is an HTTP directory brute forcer and web resource enumerator designed to discover hidden files and directories on web servers. It functions as a recursive URL scanner that identifies unlinked endpoints and API resources by combining wordlist-based scanning with automated crawling.
The tool operates as a proxy-aware fuzzer, allowing network requests to be routed through HTTP or SOCKS proxies for traffic interception or anonymity. It utilizes recursive directory crawling to automatically queue discovered paths and find nested content.
The system includes capabilities for discovery result filtering based on HTTP status codes, content size, and file extensions. It supports integration with security toolchains by reading targets from standard input and piping results to other command line utilities. Request customization is available for modifying headers, query parameters, and data payloads.
Features
- Web Resource Discovery Scanners - Automates the mapping of web server structures to discover undocumented endpoints and hidden content.
- Web Enumeration - Identifies unlinked URLs and endpoints by recursively scanning and analyzing HTTP response codes.
- Web Security Testing - Scans for unlinked resources and sensitive files to identify vulnerabilities in web applications and APIs.
- Asynchronous Request Execution - Implements a high-performance asynchronous request pipeline to manage thousands of concurrent network requests.
- Resource Discovery Brute-Forcing - Uses pre-defined wordlists to iteratively guess and discover hidden files and directories on web servers.
- Web Directory Enumeration Tools - Discovers hidden files and directories on web servers using recursive wordlist-based brute-force scanning.
