Description

This plugin will try to find new URL’s based on the input. If the input is for example:

  • http://a/a.html

The plugin will request:

  • http://a/a.html.tgz
  • http://a/a.tgz
  • http://a/a.zip

    • … etc

If the response is different from the 404 page (whatever it may be, automatic detection is performed), then we have found a new URL. This plugin searches for backup files, source code, and other common extensions. One configurable parameter exist:

  • fuzz_images
