Wordlists and compilations

David García edited this page Sep 24, 2023 · 2 revisions

A wordlist is a simple list of resources Cansina will use to ask for.

There are tons of files with list resources ready to be used. A good example is Daniel Miessler compilation.

Some list are dictionaries while others are focused on certain resources, for example Apache Server default files or the classic phpinfo.php from some PHP installations.

Multiple ways to assign wordlists

Cansina can handle wordlists in multiple forms:

A single file containing resources to ask for. This is the simplest case:

$ cansina -u <target> -p <single_file>

A file listing to other files. You MUST name it with extension '.wordlist':

$ cansina -u <target> -p <single_file_with_extension.wordlist>

This is perfect for organizing your wordlists, for example, list to "cansining" a LAMP platform:

$ cat lamp.wordlist

apache.fuzz.txt

php.fuzz.txt

A single directory. This way you can load an entire directory (only .txt files)

$ cansina -u <target> -p <directory>

Don't forget -R option. Cansina will do a robot.txt interception

$ cansina -u <target> -R
