    Hi folks, I released bruter a golang tool that I enjoyed building:

    It is a simple app that was built as an experiment while dusting my Go skils. It is indeed very much inspired by (https://github.com/evilsocket/xray) (but hey not copied ;)). The tooling can be used to test webservers and validate configurations, but not just!

    What does it do?

    It grabs HostInfo data from Shodan APIs, so you will need a Token to try this out

    It collects banners for various services FTP, SSH, MYSQL, IRC, SMTP

    It collects HTTP headers

    It brute force directories on WebServers and reports results (200, 403)

    It produces a Web UI for presentation

    Check it out and let me know what you think! Feedbacks are very welcome :D
