Is there anything out there like a port scanner but for websites, where it dictionary attacks the files. For example you plug in the domain:

http://www.foo.com

and tries to find .html files (or other)

http://www.foo.com - index.html
                      ndex.html
                       dex.html
                        ex.html

......etc

Do you need help?

where runs through numerous possibilities to hit on files on the server (and even) directories). If so, one could certainly hit on some sensitive information, say where the administrator has been testing something, or internal product infos etc.

If there is nothing out there like this, why not? Received on Wed Jan 8 17:50:19 2003
