What can SourceWolf do?

  • Crawl through responses to find hidden endpoints, either by sending requests, or from the local response files (if any).

  • Create a list of javascript variables found in the source

  • Extract all the social media links from the websites to identify potentially broken links

  • Brute forcing host using a wordlist.

  • Get the status codes for a list of URLs / Filtering out the live domains from a list of hosts.

All the features mentioned above execute with great speed.

  • SourceWolf uses the Session module from the requests library, which means, it reuses the TCP connection, making it really fast.

  • SourceWolf provides you with an option to crawl the responses files locally so that you aren't sending requests again to an endpoint, whose response you already have a copy of.

  • The final endpoints are in a complete form with a host like https://example.com/api/admin are not as /api/admin. This can come useful, when you are scanning a list of hosts.


Installation

  • git clone https://github.com/ksharinarayanan/SourceWolf (or) Download the latest release!
  • cd SourceWolf/
  • pip3 install -r requirements.txt

--local LOCAL         Directory with local response files to crawl for
--no-colors           Remove colors from the output
--update-info         Check for the latest version, and update if required
SourceWolf has 3 modes, which corresponds to it's 3 core features.
  • Crawl response mode:

Complete usage:

  python3 sourcewolf.py -l domains -o output/ -c crawl_output

domains is the list of URLs, which you want to crawl in the format:

https://example.com/
https://exisiting.example.com/
https://exisiting.example.com/dashboard
https://example.com/hitme

output/ is the directory where the response text files of the input file are stored.

They are stored in the format output/2XX, output/3XX, output/4XX, and output/5XX.
output/2XX stores 2XX status code responses, and so on!


crawl_output specified using the -c flag is used to store the output, inside a directory which SourceWolf produces by crawling the HTTP response files, stored inside the output/ directory (currently only endpoints)

The crawl_output/ directory contains:

endpoints - All the endpoints found
jsvars - All the javascript variables

The directory will have more files, as more modules, and features are integrated into SourceWolf.


(OR)

For a single URL,

  python3 sourcewolf.py -u example.com/api/endpoint -o output/ -c crawl_output

Only the flag -l is replaced by -u, everything else remains the same.


  • Brute force mode

python3 sourcewolf.py -b https://hackerone.com/FUZZ -w /path/to/wordlist -s status

-w flag is optional. If not specified, it will use a default wordlist with 6124 words

SourceWolf replace the FUZZ keyword from the -b value with the words from wordlist, and sends the requests. This enables you to brute force get parameter values as well.

-s will store the output in a file called status

  • Probing mode

Screenshot not included as the output looks similar to crawl response mode.

python3 sourcewolf -l domains -s live

The domains file can have anything like subdomains, endpoints, js files.

The -s flag write the response to the live file.

Both the brute force and probing mode prints all the status codes except 404 by default. You can customize this behavior to print only 2XX responses by using the flag --only-success

SourceWolf also makes use of multithreading.
The default number of threads for all modes is 5. You can increase the number of threads using the -t flag.

In addition to the above three modes, there is an option crawl locally, provided you have them locally, and follow sourcewolf compatible naming conventions.

Store all the responses in a directory, say responses/

python3 sourcewolf.py --local responses/

This will crawl the local directory, and give you the results.
