WebBorer: Directory Enumeration in Go

WebBorer is a directory-enumeration tool written in Go and targeting CLI usage.

(Formerly named GoBuster, name changed to avoid collision with OJ Reeve’s excellent work.)

Features

  • Highly portable – requires no runtime once compiled.
  • No GUI required.
  • Natively supports Socks 4, 4a, and 5 proxies.
  • Supports excluding entire subpaths.
  • Capable of parsing returned HTML for additional directories to parse.
  • Highly scalable – Go’s parallel model allows for many workers at once.
