A tool for auditing endpoints defined in exposed (Swagger/OpenAPI) definition files.

sj is a command line tool designed to assist with auditing of exposed Swagger/OpenAPI definition files by checking the associated API endpoints for weak authentication. It also provides command templates for manual vulnerability testing.
It does this by parsing the definition file for paths, parameters, and accepted methods before using the results with one of five sub-commands:
automate - Crafts a series of requests and analyzes the status code of the response.prepare - Generates a list of commands to use for manual testing.endpoints - Generates a list of raw API routes. Path values will not be replaced with test data.brute - Sends a series of requests to a target to find operation definitions based on commonly used file paths.convert - Converts a definition file from v2 to v3.To compile from source, ensure you have Go version >= 1.22.5 installed and run go build from within the repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/BishopFox/sj.git
$ cd sj/
$ go build .
To install the latest version of the tool, run:
$ go install github.com/BishopFox/sj@latest
# Note: you may also need to place the path to your Go binaries within your PATH environment variable:
$ export PATH=$PATH:~/go/bin
Use the
automatecommand to send a series of requests to each defined endpoint and analyze the status code of each response.
$ sj automate -u https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json -qi -p http://127.0.0.1:8080

You can use the --replay-proxy flag to replay matched requests through a separate proxy (e.g., Burp Suite). This lets you route all traffic through one proxy (or direct) while only sending interesting results to your interception proxy:
$ sj automate -u https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json -qi --replay-proxy http://127.0.0.1:8080
You can also combine it with --proxy to route scanning traffic through a different proxy while replaying matches to Burp:
$ sj automate -u https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json -qi -p http://proxy:9090 --replay-proxy http://127.0.0.1:8080
You can also request verbose output to see the partial (or full) response:
$ sj automate -u https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json -qi -p http://127.0.0.1:8080 -v

Use the
preparecommand to prepare a list of commands for manual testing. Currently supports bothcurlandsqlmap. You will likely have to modify these slightly.
$ sj prepare -u https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json -qi -p http://127.0.0.1:8080
