Web-fu - The Ultimate Web Hacking Chrome Extension
BROWSER INTEGRATION
This tool has many advantages, as a browser-embedded webhacking tool, is very useful for scanning browser-authenticated applications, if browser can authenticate and access to the web application, the tool also can. Note that some other tools do not support neither certificate authentication nor web vpn accesses.
The integration with chrome, provides a more comfortable and agile way of web-hacking, and you have all the application data loaded on the hacking tool, you don't need to copy the url, cookies, etc. to the tool, just right click and hack.
The browser rendering engine is also used in this tool, to draw the html of the responses.
FALSES POSITIVES
When I coded this tool, I was obsessed with false positives, which is the main problem in all detection tools. I have implemented a gauss algorithm, to reduce the faslse positives automatically which works very very well, and save a lot of time to the pentester.
VIDEO
Here is a video, with some of the web-fu functionalitites:
VISUAL FEATURES
This tool has a visual crawler. Normal crawlers doesn't parse the ajvascript, this tool does. The visual crawler loads each link of the web site, rendering the html and executing all the javascript as a normal load, then the links are processed from he DOM and clicked.
A visual form cracker, is also available, althow is experimental and only works on some kind of forms.
SCANNING FEATURES
The web-fu's portscanner, has a database of a common web ports, like 80,81,8080 and so on.
The cracker module, can bruteforce web directories to find new attack vectors, and can fuzz get and post parameters for discovering vulns, and also crack passwords. There are 9 preloaded wordlists, and you can also load a custom wordlist. Prefilters, falsepositive reductor and render will be helpful. The scanners support SSL, if the website can be loaded in the chrome, can be scanned by web-fu.
ENCODERS & DECODERS
The supported encoders and decoders are: base64, urlescape and urlencode
OTHER FEATURES
A web notepad is available, saving the information on the browser localStorage, there is one notepad per site. A cookie editor is also very useful for pentesting. The inteceptor, is like a web proxy but from the inside of the browser, you can intercept a request There is also a session locker and a exploit web search.
CHROME STORE
Here is the link to the chrome store, the prize is about one euro, very cheap if you compare with other scanners: Web-Fu on Chrome Store
With webfu, you will do the best web site pentest and vulnerability assessment.

Linux Command Line Hackery Series - Part 6
Welcome back to Linux Command Line Hackery series, I hope you've enjoyed this series so far and would have learned something (at least a bit). Today we're going to get into user management, that is we are going to learn commands that will help us add and remove users and groups. So bring it on...
Before we get into adding new users to our system lets first talk about a command that will be useful if you are a non-root user.
Command: sudo
Syntax: sudo [options] command
Description: sudo allows a permitted user to execute a command as a superuser or another user.
Since the commands to follow need root privileges, if you are not root then don't forget to prefix these commands with sudo command. And yes you'll need to enter the root password in order to execute any command with sudo as root.
Command: useradd
Syntax: useradd [options] username
Description: this command is used for creating new user but is kinda old school.
Lets try to add a new user to our box.
[Note: I'm performing these commands as root user, you'll need root privileges to add a new user to your box. If you aren't root then you can try these commands by prefixing the sudo command at the very beginning of these command like this sudo useradd joe. You'll be prompted for your root password, enter it and you're good to go]
useradd joe
To verify that this command has really added a user to our box we can look at three files that store a users data on a Linux box, which are:
/etc/passwd -> this file stores information about a user separated by colons in this manner, first is login name, then in past there used to be an encrypted password hash at the second place however since the password hashes were moved to shadow file now it has a cross (x) there, then there is user id, after it is the user's group id, following it is a comment field, then the next field contains users home directory, and at last is the login shell of the user.
/etc/group -> this file stores information about groups, that is id of the group and to which group an user belongs.
/etc/shadow -> this file stores the encrypted password of users.
Using our command line techniques we learned so far lets check out these files and verify if our user has been created:
cat /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/shadow | grep joe
In the above screenshot you can notice an ! in the /etc/shadow, this means the password of this user has not been set yet. That means we have to set the password of user joe manually, lets do just that.
Command: passwd
Syntax: passwd [options] [username]
Description: this command is used to change the password of user accounts.
Note that this command needs root privileges. So if you are not root then prefix this command with sudo.
passwd joe
After typing this command, you'll be prompted password and then for verifying your password. The password won't show up on the terminal.
Now joe's account is up and running with a password.
The useradd command is a old school command, lets create a new user with a different command which is kinda interactive.
Command: adduser
Syntax: adduser [options] user
Description: adduser command adds a user to the system. It is more friendly front-end to the useradd command.
So lets create a new user with adduser.
adduser jane
as seen in the image it prompts for password, full name and many other things and thus is easy to use.
OK now we know how to create a user its time to create a group which is very easy.
Command: addgroup
Syntax: addgroup [options] groupname
Description: This command is used to create a new group or add an existing user to an existing group.
We create a new group like this
addgroup grownups
So now we have a group called grownups, you can verify it by looking at /etc/group file.
Since joe is not a grownup user yet but jane is we'll add jane to grownups group like this:
addgroup jane grownups
Now jane is the member of grownups.
Its time to learn how to remove a user from our system and how to remove a group from the system, lets get straight to that.
Command: deluser
Syntax: deluser [options] username
Description: remove a user from system.
Lets remove joe from our system
deluser joe
Yes its as easy as that. But remember by default deluser will remove the user without removing the home directory or any other files owned by the user. Removing the home directory can be achieved by using the --remove-home option.
deluser jane --remove-home
Also the --remove-all-files option removes all the files from the system owned by the user (better watch-out). And to create a backup of all the files before deleting use the --backup option.
We don't need grownups group so lets remove it.
Command: delgroup
Syntax: delgroup [options] groupname
Description: remove a group from the system.
To remove grownups group just type:
delgroup grownups
That's it for today hope you got something in your head.
