Yes, it's open source: https://github.com/lissy93/web-check :) Why I'm building this? There are a lot of tools out there for discovering meta and security data relating to a website, IP or server. But currently, there isn't anything that does everything, all in one place and without a paywall/ user sign up. It's still a WIP, and I'm working on a new version, with some more comprehensive checks, so any feedback would be much appreciated :)

This is a simple single-file python program that can find basic XSS (cross-site scripting) vulnerabilities in a target url. Most XSS discovery tools use a payload refelection strategy in which payloads are injected in url parameters and the GET response is inspected for places where the payload content is reflected. This is a very low precision XSS detection strategy because most reflection does not support execution. This program uses a different approach, and instead opens the target url in a browser, tests alert(...) payloads directly in the browser context, and listens for an alert being…

Hey HN, I built an automated system that tracks malicious Chrome/Edge extensions daily. The database updates automatically by monitoring chrome-stats for removed extensions and scanning security blogs. Currently tracking 1000+ known malicious extensions with extension IDs, names, and dates. I'm working on detection tools (GUI + CLI) to scan locally installed extensions against this database, but wanted to share the raw data first since maintained threat intelligence lists like this are hard to find. The automation runs 24/7 and pushes updates to GitHub. Free to use for research,…

Hi HN! Ah yes, another web scraper. There are so many out there, so why make another one? Because I wanted one that's stupid simple and stupid fast. Unlike most web scrapers, Easy Scraper doesn’t make you build a new scraper for each site or individually select fields. You just open it and bam, your data's ready to go. My favorite use case for instantly extracting data anywhere is being able to easily talk to ChatGPT about custom datasets. For example, here's a 1-minute demo of me scraping my Twitter followers to find the ones that live in San Francisco:…

I made a website to make able to open suspicious links safely, You can open the "suspicious link" by putting it on the website, and behind the scenes on the server, there is a VM (Virtual Machine) that contains Chromium, and an API that will receive your "suspicious link" and open it in a thread using Chromium. What result will I receive ?: You get the downloaded files that are downloaded when you open the link. Also, it takes a screenshot of the page behind that link to be able to see what it looks like, and it will give you the requests made by that link when it was opened.…

http://webscanner.tk/quickscan/ Hi! I made this project over the couse of a week to help teach myself more about Django and web app development. I am studying computer security in school and web security is one of my passions. It is a tool that helps web developers ensure that they have implemented helpful security mechanisms like HTTPOnly flags, X-Frame-Options, etc. There are hundreds of tools that offer to scan websites for things like cross-site scripting, mySQL injection, etc. This tool simply looks for information that is available via one or two GET requests (the headers, protocols,…

Hello friends, It probably exists or someone made it before but I couldn't find it so I created one myself. I also noticed people check each other's profiles often so this might come in handy. Screenshot of the usage (ignore the red arrow it doesn't come with the extension): https://imgur.com/a/gvJ93ne This Chrome extension does one simple thing. If you want to check the user information listed in the profile including username, creation date, karma, and about. You just need to hover over the username. I was clicking on users before and it was a waste of time I thought…
