dirb:tldr:05a28
The command "dirb ${https:--example-org} -r" is a task executed in a command-line interface. Here's a breakdown of its components:
-
"dirb" is the name of the command being run. It stands for "Directory Buster," which is a tool used for scanning web servers and discovering hidden files and directories.
-
"${https:--example-org}" is a placeholder or variable representing the target URL. In this case, it is set as "https://example.org," but it could be replaced with any other URL.
-
"-r" is an option or flag that stands for "recursive." When used with dirb, it instructs the tool to perform a recursive search, exploring directories and subdirectories within the target URL.
Therefore, when the command is executed, it will run the dirb tool with the target URL "https://example.org" and perform a recursive search on its directories and subdirectories, looking for hidden files and directories.
