GooFuzz is a free, open source threat detection & response project written in Shell and released under GPL-3.0. It has 1,591 GitHub stars, 158 forks and 0 open issues, and was last pushed 10 months ago. On this registry it ranks #53 of 66 tracked projects in Threat Detection & Response, with 5 head-to-head comparisons available.

What is GooFuzz?

GooFuzz is a Bash script that performs fuzzing with an OSINT approach, letting penetration testers, bug bounty hunters and recon analysts enumerate a target's directories, files, subdomains and parameters through advanced Google searches without sending a single request to the target's web server.

What it is

GooFuzz is a command-line tool written in Bash Scripting and released under GPL-3.0 that uses advanced Google search techniques, commonly called Google Dorking, to obtain sensitive information held in files or directories. The README describes a script that gathers that information without making requests to the web server, and version 2.0 is the release its documentation currently describes. The topic list places it squarely in security work: bash-script, bugbounty, discovery, fuzzing, google-dorks, information-disclosure, infosec, osint, penetration-testing, pentesting and recon.

The problem it solves is the evidence trail that conventional fuzzing leaves behind. Directory, file, subdomain and parameter discovery normally works by firing requests at the target itself, and every one of those requests is something the target's server can record. GooFuzz replaces that direct-to-server approach with queries against Google's programmable search API, so enumeration happens against the search engine's index rather than the live host. That makes it a reconnaissance instrument: it shows what is already publicly visible about a target before any deeper testing begins.

Key capabilities

  • It enumerates files by extension through the "-e" option, accepting comma-separated values such as "pdf,doc,docx,txt,xls,zip".
  • It discovers directories, paths and files from a dictionary with "-w", which takes either an inline list such as "config.php,admin,/images/" or a wordlist file.
  • It lists subdomains of a domain using the "-s" flag, with "-p" controlling how many result pages are queried; the default is one page.
  • It reads one or more CX_ID and API_KEY pairs from a file passed with "-k", one pair per line.
  • It supports target exclusions through "-x", given as a comma-separated list or a file, and relevant content matching through "-c".
  • It paces and routes requests with "-d" for a delay in seconds between requests and "-r" for a proxy in [protocol://]host[:port] form.
  • It exports results only to a file with "-o" and can be built into a container image using the Dockerfile included in the repository.

Who uses it and how

  • Penetration testers and bug bounty hunters use it during the reconnaissance phase to map indexed files, paths and subdomains before moving on to active testing.
  • OSINT and information-disclosure assessments suit it because the technique surfaces documents and paths Google has already indexed rather than probing the host directly.
  • The README demonstrates a file-focused run against a target domain: "GooFuzz -t nasa.gov -e pdf,doc,docx,txt,xls,zip -p 3 -k apikey.lst -o extensions.txt", which writes the discovered document URLs to an output file.
  • Wider subdomain mapping is shown as "GooFuzz -t site.com -k keys_file.txt -s -p 10 -d 5 -o GooFuzz-subdomains.txt", combining ten result pages with a five-second delay between requests.
  • The Docker path suits operators who would rather run "docker build -t goofuzz ." followed by "docker run --rm -it goofuzz -h" than install the shell dependencies on the host.

Getting started

Clone the repository, run "sudo apt install jq", make the script executable and launch "./GooFuzz -h"; first, a free Google API key from the Custom Search API and a Programmable Search Engine cxId must be created and supplied through the "-k" key file. A Dockerfile is also provided for building the image and running the tool without installing the dependencies directly.

How it compares

No competing or comparable tool is named in the supplied facts, so GooFuzz stands alone in this registry rather than being contrasted with named alternatives. Its distinguishing position within the Security & Privacy / Threat Detection & Response category is the OSINT-only mechanism: discovery is performed through Google Dorking instead of through requests against the target.

When to use it — and when not to

A self-hoster must provide Bash or Zsh with curl, jq and sed available, and must maintain a Google Cloud project with the Custom Search API enabled plus a Programmable Search Engine configured to search the entire web; both credentials are free, but the setup is a prerequisite that cannot be skipped. Because the tool works entirely from search results, it only reveals what Google has already indexed, so anyone who needs live, exhaustive coverage of a host should not treat it as a substitute for direct enumeration. The documentation is compact, consisting mainly of prerequisites, installation steps and the help output, so the tool is learned largely from its menu and examples.

Description:

GooFuzz is a script written in Bash Scripting that uses advanced Google search techniques to obtain sensitive information in files or directories without making requests to the web server.

What's new

Want to learn about the new features in version 2.0 and how to use the tool correctly?

Check out the following article and get the most out of the tool.

Prerequisites

  • Bash/Zsh: The main engine where the script runs.
  • curl: Used to make HTTP requests to search engines.
  • jq: Required to process and filter responses in JSON format.
  • sed: Standard text processing tool in Unix systems.
  • Google API and create a programmable search engine: Required to add the cxId and apikey to a file. Both are free.
Get your API Key
  1. Go to Google Cloud Console.
  2. Create a new project (give it a name, such as GooFuzz-Project).
  3. In the search bar at the top, type "Custom Search API" and click the Enable button.
  4. Once enabled, go to the "Credentials" tab in the left-hand menu.
  5. Click on "Create credentials" -> "API key".
  6. Keep it safe! That's your API key.
2. Get your CX ID (Programmable Search Engine)
  1. Go to the Programmable Search Engine dashboard.
  2. Click “Add” to create a new search engine.
  3. In the “What to search” section, select “Search the entire Web” (this is vital so that GooFuzz is not limited to a single website).
  4. Give it a name (e.g., GooFuzz-Search) and click Create.
  5. Now go to the settings for the search engine you just created and look for “Search engine ID.”
  6. That alphanumeric code is your cxId.

Download and install:

git clone https://github.com/m3n0sd0n4ld/GooFuzz.git
cd GooFuzz
sudo apt install jq
chmod +x GooFuzz
./GooFuzz -h

Docker version:

git clone https://github.com/m3n0sd0n4ld/GooFuzz.git
cd GooFuzz
docker build -t goofuzz .
docker run --rm -it goofuzz -h

Use:

Menu

> ./GooFuzz -h

Subdomains enumeration

The functionality to list subdomains (parameter "-s") and in conjunction with a number of between 10 and 20 pages (parameter "-p"), it is possible to obtain a large number of subdomains of the organization.

Files found containing enumeration

The functionality to list files by their content (parameter "-c"), is very useful to identify relevant files (e.g. containing the word "password"), even if the word is in an image file (e.g. .png).
