Below are the usage of all the tool for beginner.

CRLFuzz:

CRLFuzz is an indispensable tool for testing CRLF (Carriage Return Line Feed) injection vulnerabilities. It enables you to inject various payloads, analyze server responses, and uncover potential security weaknesses in web applications. For example, you can scan for CRLF injection vulnerabilities in *.example.com using the following command:

crlfuzz -u https://*.example.com/ -p /path/to/payloads.txt

FFUF:

FFUF is a versatile web fuzzer that helps you discover hidden files and directories on web servers. By fuzzing URLs associated with the target domain, such as subdomains.example.com, you can uncover potential entry points that may lead to security vulnerabilities. For example, you can run a directory fuzzing scan on *.example.com using the following command:

ffuf -u https://*.example.com/FUZZ -w /path/to/wordlist.txt

Kite:

Kite is a robust API testing tool designed to find and exploit security flaws in APIs. With its user-friendly interface and comprehensive features, you can efficiently analyze APIs associated with the target domain, such as api.example.com, and identify potential vulnerabilities. For example, you can perform a SQL injection scan on the API endpoint of *.example.com using the following command:

kite sqlmap -u https://api.example.com/endpoint?id=1 --level=5 --risk=3

Dalfox:

Dalfox is a powerful parameter analysis and XSS scanner. By analyzing parameters in web applications on the target domain, you can detect and exploit XSS vulnerabilities, helping you uncover critical security issues in endpoints like login.example.com. For example, you can run a parameter analysis scan on *.example.com using the following command:

dalfox url https://*.example.com/?param1=value1 --bypass-urlencode -o output.html

Nuclei:

Nuclei is a versatile and customizable vulnerability scanner that helps you identify security weaknesses in various types of applications. With its wide range of pre-built templates, you can easily scan for common vulnerabilities and misconfigurations on the target domain, such as *.example.com. For example, you can run a template-based scan on *.example.com using the following command:

nuclei -l /path/to/targets.txt -t /path/to/templates/directory/

RustScan:

RustScan is a fast and comprehensive port scanner that allows you to discover open ports on target systems. By quickly identifying open services, you can prioritize your bug bounty efforts and focus on potential attack vectors. For example, you can scan *.example.com for open ports using the following command:

rustscan -a *.example.com

SQLMap (continued):

SQLMap is a popular tool for detecting and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities. It automates the process of identifying and exploiting SQL injection flaws, helping you uncover data leaks and gain unauthorized access. For example, you can run a SQLMap scan on *.example.com using the following command:

sqlmap -u https://*.example.com/endpoint?id=1 --level=5 --risk=3

Nmap:

Nmap is a powerful network exploration tool that allows you to discover hosts and services on a network. By scanning target systems, you can identify open ports, detect potential vulnerabilities, and gather valuable information. For example, you can perform a port scan on *.example.com using the following command:

nmap -p 1-65535 *.example.com

Waybackurls:

Waybackurls is a tool that extracts URLs from the Wayback Machine's archive. It helps you uncover hidden or forgotten subdomains and endpoints that may be vulnerable to security flaws. For example, you can extract URLs from the Wayback Machine for *.example.com using the following command:

waybackurls example.com > waybackurls.txt

Subfinder:

Subfinder is a subdomain discovery tool that helps you identify subdomains associated with a target domain. By expanding your attack surface, you can find additional entry points and increase your chances of finding vulnerabilities. For example, you can run a subdomain enumeration on example.com using the following command:

subfinder -d example.com -o subdomains.txt

XSStrike:

XSStrike is a specialized tool designed to detect and exploit cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. It analyzes web applications and helps you craft payloads to test for XSS vulnerabilities, allowing you to discover critical security flaws. For example, you can scan *.example.com for XSS vulnerabilities using the following command:

xsstrike -u https://*.example.com/

NoSQLMap:

NoSQLMap is an automated tool for detecting and exploiting NoSQL database vulnerabilities. It helps you detect and exploit NoSQL injection vulnerabilities, which can lead to unauthorized data access or data manipulation. For example, you can run a NoSQLMap scan on *.example.com using the following command:

nosqlmap -u https://*.example.com/endpoint?param=value

GitDumper:

GitDumper is a tool that allows you to extract sensitive information from exposed Git repositories. It helps you identify repositories that have been inadvertently exposed, potentially leading to source code leaks or other security issues. For example, you can extract data from Git repositories associated with *.example.com using the following command:

gitdumper https://*.example.com/.git/ output_directory

FeroxBuster:

FeroxBuster is a fast and versatile content discovery tool. It assists you in finding hidden files and directories on web servers, helping you uncover potential vulnerabilities or sensitive information. For example, you can perform a content discovery scan on *.example.com using the following command:

feroxbuster -u https://*.example.com/ -w /path/to/wordlist.txt

Gobuster:

Gobuster is a directory and DNS brute-forcing tool. By brute-forcing directories and subdomains, you can uncover hidden endpoints and potential vulnerabilities. For example, you can run a directory brute-forcing scan on *.example.com using the following command:

gobuster dir -u https://*.example.com/ -w /path/to/wordlist.txt

Arjun (continued):

Arjun is a parameter-based HTTP parameter discovery suite. It helps you identify potential vulnerabilities by scanning for hidden parameters and parameter pollution issues. For example, you can run an Arjun scan on *.example.com using the following command:

arjun -u https://*.example.com/endpoint --get -t 10

WPScan:

WPScan is a specialized tool for WordPress security testing. It helps you identify vulnerabilities in WordPress installations, themes, and plugins, allowing you to secure WordPress-based websites effectively. For example, you can run a WPScan on *.example.com using the following command:

wpscan --url https://*.example.com/
