Admin

Overview

dirsearch is a simple command line tool designed to brute force directories and files in websites.

Installation & Usage

git clone https://github.com/maurosoria/dirsearch.git
cd dirsearch
python3 dirsearch.py -u <URL> -e <EXTENSION>

you can also use this alias to send directly to proxy python3 /path/to/dirsearch/dirsearch.py --http-proxy=localhost:8080

                        Max recursion level (subdirs) (Default: 1 [only
                        rootdir + 1 dir])
    --suppress-empty, --suppress-empty
    --scan-subdir=SCANSUBDIRS, --scan-subdirs=SCANSUBDIRS

    --exclude-regexps=EXCLUDEREGEXPS
                        Exclude responses by regexps, separated by comma
                        (example: "Not foun[a-z]{1}", "^Error$")
    -c COOKIE, --cookie=COOKIE
    --ua=USERAGENT, --user-agent=USERAGENT
    -F, --follow-redirects
    -H HEADERS, --header=HEADERS
                        Headers to add (example: --header "Referer:
                        example.com" --header "User-Agent: IE"
    --random-agents, --random-user-agents

  Connection Settings:
    --timeout=TIMEOUT   Connection timeout
    --ip=IP             Resolve name to IP address
    --proxy=HTTPPROXY, --http-proxy=HTTPPROXY
                        Http Proxy (example: localhost:8080

                        Method to use, default: GET, possible also: HEAD;POST
    --max-retries=MAXRETRIES
    -b, --request-by-hostname
                        By default dirsearch will request by IP for speed.
                        This forces requests by hostname

  Reports:
    --simple-report=SIMPLEOUTPUTFILE
                        Only found paths
    --plain-text-report=PLAINTEXTOUTPUTFILE

Operating Systems supported

  • Windows XP/7/8/10
  • GNU/Linux
  • MacOSX

Features

  • Multithreaded
  • Keep alive connections
  • Support for multiple extensions (-e|–extensions asp,php)
  • Reporting (plain text, JSON)
  • Heuristically detects invalid web pages
  • Recursive brute forcing
  • HTTP proxy support
  • User agent randomization
  • Batch processing
  • Request delaying
  • Option to remove dot from extension when forcing (–nd, example%EXT% instead of example.%EXT%)
  • Options to display only items with response length from range (–min & –max)
  • Option to whitelist response codes (-i 200,500)
  • Option to remove output from console (-q, keeps output to files)
  • Option to add custom suffixes to filenames without dots (–suff .BAK,.old, example.%EXT%%SUFFIX%)

About wordlists

Dictionaries must be text files. Each line will be processed as such, except that the special word %EXT% is used, which will generate one entry for each extension (-e | –extension) passed as an argument.

Example:

  • example/
  • example.%EXT%

Passing the extensions “asp” and “aspx” will generate the following dictionary:

  • example/
  • example.asp
  • example.aspx

You can also use -f | –force-extensions switch to append extensions to every word in the wordlists (like DirBuster).

How to use

Some examples how to use dirsearch – those are the most common arguments. If you need all, just use the “-h” argument.
