pathbuster 0.4.9

A path-normalization pentesting tool.
pathbuster-0.4.9 is not a library.
Visit the last successful build: pathbuster-0.5.6


What's New?

  • Removed redundant --filter-status which filtered the status codes but also missed a ton of valid findings.
  • Removed redundant --filter-body-size which filtered the response sizes but also missed a ton of valid findings.
  • Implemented --drop-after-fail which will ignore requests with the same response code multiple times in a row.
  • Added in a --proxy argument, so you can now perform proxy-related tasks such as sending everything to burp.
  • Pathbuster will now give you an eta on when the tool will finish processing all jobs.

Bug fixes?

  • Fixed a bug with the ETA, it would not produce the correct results.
  • Fixed a bug with the --proxy argument as well as some other small bugs.
  • Fixed a ton of performance issues and included directory bruteforcing at the end.
  • Massive performance and accuracy increases using itertools instead of double for loops reducing O(n^2) time complexity.
