image

Features

  • Comprehensive Scanning: Tests URL parameters, POST parameters, headers, and DOM content for XSS vulnerabilities.
  • Multiple Browser Support: Compatible with both Firefox and Chrome for testing.
  • Headless Mode: Option to run scans in headless browser mode for faster & traditional execution.
  • Paralellised Scanning: Utilises multi-threading for efficient scanning of multiple targets.
  • Customizable: Supports custom headers, cookies, and payload files.
  • Crawling Capability: Can crawl websites to discover and test additional pages.
  • Detailed Reporting: Provides comprehensive output with color-coded console logs and optional file output.
  • DOM XSS Detection: Advanced detection of DOM-based XSS vulnerabilities.
  • Payload Customization: Automatically customises payloads with unique identifiers for accurate detection.
  • Tamper Techniques: WAF evasion techniques
  • Detection of SQLi: Validates whether SQLi is also indicative within responses
  • WAF Detection: The ability to detect a firewall running on a target, using behavioural and static checks

Future Development

  • Enhance payload generation dependant on context of target
  • Modular refactoring
  • More 'smart' payloads for DOM XSS
  • Getting gud
