Subdomain finder one-liners

Find subdomains from various sources and add them to output.txt file.

Sublist3r

OWASP Opendoor

python3 opendoor.py --host 10.10.10.6 --scan=directories -t 50

Cansina

python ./cansina.py -u 10.10.10.6 -p ./directories.dat --persist -t 50 --show-type --full-path -b 403,404

Dirb

dirb http://example.com -r

Dirsearch

One of the best tools for discovering sub-directories and metadata search.

GitHub - maurosoria/dirsearch: Web path scannerGitHub

python3 dirsearch.py -u http://192.168.56.122 -e php,exe.elf.cgi,asp,txt,pdf,png,jpg -r  -t 5  -w db/dicc.txt -x 403,404

Gobuster

Used for both subdomain/vhost and subdirectory discovery.

gobuster dir -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirb/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt -u 10.10.10

Some useful options:

-x → extention
dir → directory brutforce
dns → subdomain bruteforce
-c → cookie string
-e → print full url
-U → username for auth
-p → password for basic auth
-P → proxy [http(s)://host:port]
-s → set positive status codes will be overwritten with statuscodesblacklist if set) (default "200,204,301,302,307,401,403")
-u → url
-o → output to a file
-k → skip ssl
-a → set user agent

Gobuster Web Content Discovery

gobuster -u http:/// -w /usr/share/seclists/Discovery/ Web_Content/common.txt -s '200,204,301,302,307,403,500' -e

Gobuster subdomain brute forcing

gobuster dns -w /usr/share/seclists/Discovery/ DNS/subdomains-top1million-110000.txt -d target.com

Gobuster subdomain vhost search

gobuster vhost -u example.com -w /usr/share/seclists/Discovery/Web-Content/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt

Dirbuster

Add URL with port, example: http://127.0.0.1:80/

Wordlist for bruteforce is in /usr/share/wordlists/dirbuster
Set go faster 200 threats (usually works best) in file extensions add any file type you want to look for like rar, docx, zip, etc.

Wfuzz

It can fuzz any given location in a url, the location is specified by the "FUZZ" parameter:

wfuzz -u http://sneakycorp.htb -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirbuster/directory-list -2.3-small.txt -H 'Host: FUZZ.sneakycorp.htb' --hw 1

Find files and extensions, Hide 404 codes:

wfuzz -u http://10.10.15.205/firstdirc/seconddir/FUZZ.extension -w /usr/share/dirbuster/wordl
