DIRB is a Web Content Scanner. It looks for existing (and/or hidden) Web
|
|
Objects. It basically works by launching a dictionary based attack against
|
|
a web server and analizing the response.
|
|
|
|
DIRB comes with a set of preconfigured attack wordlists for easy usage but
|
|
you can use your custom wordlists. Also DIRB sometimes can be used as a
|
|
classic CGI scanner, but remember it is a content scanner not a vulnerability
|
|
scanner.
|
|
|
|
DIRB main purpose is to help in professional web application auditing.
|
|
Especially in security related testing. It covers some holes not covered by
|
|
classic web vulnerability scanners. DIRB looks for specific web objects that
|
|
other generic CGI scanners can't look for. It doesn't search vulnerabilities
|
|
nor does it look for web content that could be vulnerable.
