Web Content Discovery Tool
Project description
Cansina
IMPORTANT: Clone this repository with:
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/deibit/cansina
Cansina is a Web Content Discovery Application.
It is well known Web applications don't publish all their resources or public links, so the only way to discover these resources is requesting for them and check the response.
Cansina duty is to help you making requests and filtering and inspecting the responses to tell apart if it is an existing resource or just an annoying or disguised 404.
Feature requests and comments are welcome.
Cansina is included in BlackArch Linux, give it a try!
Speed
Wanna make Cansina run faster? Grab my cup of coffee.
Cansina downloads page content for inspection by default (Yep, Cansina does not racing for speed). but you can disable GET requests and make them HEAD (no body page download). Also, do no print the fancy terminal interface (you will lost some hackish points).
- Put -H to make requests lighter
- Put --no-progress to print no fancy information in the screen
- Raise default threads to ten with -t 10 (or even more if you don't mind noise and faulty tries)
Integrated tree viewer
Cansina integrates a tree viewer (thanks to asciitree package) to output a project sqlite base stored results (http 200 status code by now).
./cansina.py -V output/http_testphp.vulnweb.com.sqlite
Windows
Untested in Windows. It should work with --no-progress
Installation
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/deibit/cansina
cd cansina
pip install -r requirements.txt
From release tagged Py27, Cansina is made with Python 3.x in mind.
Last version with Python 2.7 support
Usage
Wiki is full of documentation and examples. But as a fast example:
python3 cansina.py -u <site_url> -p <payload_file>
Help summary:
python3 cansina.py -h
Options
usage: cansina.py -u url -p payload [options]
Cansina is a web content discovery tool. It makes requests and analyze the
responses trying to figure out whether the resource is or not accessible.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-A AUTHENTICATION Basic Authentication (e.g: user:password)
-C COOKIES your cookies (e.g: key:value)
-D Check for fake 404 (warning: machine decision)
-H Make HTTP HEAD requests
-P PROXIES Set a http and/or https proxy (ex:
http://127.0.0.1:8080,https://...
-S Remove ending slash for payloads
-T REQUEST_DELAY Time (a float number, e.g: 0.25 or 1.75) between
requests
-U Make payload requests upper-case
-a USER_AGENT The preferred user-agent (default provided)
-b BANNED List of banned response codes
-B UNBANNED List of unbanned response codes, mark all response as
invalid without unbanned response codes, higher
priority than banned
-c CONTENT Inspect content looking for a particular string
-d DISCRIMINATOR If this string if found it will be treated as a 404
-e EXTENSION Extension list to use e.g: php,asp,...(default none)
-o OUTPUT Write (append) results in CSV format to a file; -o
<filename>
-p PAYLOAD A single file, a file with filenames (.payload) or a
directory (will do *.txt)
-s SIZE_DISCRIMINATOR
Will skip pages with this size in bytes (or a list of
sizes 0,500,1500...)
-t THREADS Number of threads (default 4)
-u TARGET Target url
-r RESUME Resume a session
-R Parse robots.txt and check its contents
--recursive Recursive descend on path directories
--no-persist Do not Use HTTP persistent connections
--full-path Show full path instead of only resources
--show-type Show content-type in results
--no-follow Do not follow redirections
--line CONTINUE_LINE Continue payload in line <n>
--resumer Save session in a file
--headers HEADERS Set personalized headers: key=value;key=value...
--capitalize Transform 'word' into 'Word'.
--strip-extension Strip word extension: word.ext into word
--alpha Filter non alphanumeric words from wordlist
--no-progress Don't show tested words and progress. (For dumb
terminals)
--no-colors Don't use output colors to keep output clean, e.g.
when redirecting output to file
