WhatWaf?

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.

SIDE-NOTE: Any issue that is not the newest version of WhatWaf will be closed without discussion

SECONDARY SIDE NOTE: I do not have much time to update this project anymore, updates will be slow
