feroxbuster:tldr:28740
The command you provided is using the tool "feroxbuster" to perform a web content discovery and directory/file enumeration task. Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
feroxbuster
is the actual command that is being executed. -
--url "${https:--example-com}"
specifies the target URL where the tool will perform the scanning. In this case, it is set to "https://example.com". The--url
flag is used to indicate the target. -
--wordlist ${filename}
specifies the wordlist that will be used for the content discovery. The${filename}
is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path and filename of the wordlist file. For example,--wordlist /path/to/wordlist.txt
. -
--threads ${100}
sets the number of threads (parallel connections) that will be used during the scanning process. The${100}
is another placeholder that should be replaced with the desired number of threads. For example,--threads 50
. -
--extensions "${php,txt}"
specifies the file extensions that will be checked during the enumeration. In this case, it is set to search for files with ".php" and ".txt" extensions. The${php,txt}
is a placeholder that, like the previous ones, should be replaced with the desired file extensions. For example,--extensions "php,txt,html"
. -
--random-agent
instructs the tool to use a random User-Agent string for each request sent. This can help avoid detections or blocking based on a specific User-Agent.
Overall, this command is telling feroxbuster to perform a web content discovery and directory/file enumeration on the specified URL, using a given wordlist, number of threads, and file extensions, while randomly rotating User-Agent strings for each request.
