WhatWaf - Detect And Bypass Web Application Firewalls And Protection Systems
WhatWaf is an advanced firewall detection tool who's goal is to give you the idea of "There's a WAF?". WhatWaf works by detecting a firewall on a web application, and attempting to detect a bypass (or two) for said firewall, on the specified target.

- Ability to try over 20 different tampering techniques
- Ability to pass your own payloads either from a file or from the terminal
- Payloads that are guaranteed to produce at least one WAF triggering
- Ability to bypass firewalls using both SQLi techniques and cross site scripting techniques
- Ability to run behind Tor

And finally, lets try one of the bypasses that it tells us to try:
