Directory traversal fuzzer — test for path traversal across HTTP, FTP, TFTP.
apt install dotdotpwn
# HTTP traversal
dotdotpwn -m http -h target.com -x 80
# HTTP with specific URL
dotdotpwn -m http -h target.com -U "http://target.com/page?file=TRAVERSAL"
# FTP
dotdotpwn -m ftp -h target.com -x 21 -u user -p pass
| Flag | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| -m MODULE | Module: http/http-url/ftp/tftp/payload |
| -h HOST | Target host |
| -x PORT | Target port |
| -U URL | URL with TRAVERSAL placeholder |
| -u USER | Username (FTP) |
| -p PASS | Password (FTP) |
| -f FILE | Target file (e.g., /etc/passwd) |
| -d N | Traversal depth (default: 6) |
| -t N | Time between requests (ms) |
| -q | Quiet mode |
| -s | Stop on first found |
HTTP-URL traversal with custom path:
dotdotpwn -m http-url -h target.com -U "http://target.com/download.php?file=TRAVERSAL" -f /etc/passwd -d 8 -q
Windows target:
dotdotpwn -m http -h target.com -f "windows/system32/cmd.exe" -d 6

Scoped routing: Linux operator; hosts, sessions, users, services, packages, logs, containers, SSH, network paths, privilege evidence.
development
Offensive methodology for ICS/OT/SCADA environments in authorized industrial penetration testing and red team operations. Use when assessing PLCs, RTUs, HMIs, engineering workstations, historians, or field devices running Modbus, DNP3, EtherNet/IP, S7comm/S7+, Profinet, IEC 60870-5-104, BACnet, or OPC-UA. Covers passive OT network enumeration, protocol-level device interrogation, PLC coil/register read-write attacks, HMI session exploitation, historian and engineering workstation compromise, and safe escalation rules for critical infrastructure scope. Does not cover: general IT network exploitation (network-technique), physical hardware interfaces UART/JTAG/SPI (hardware-technique), wireless sensor network attacks (wireless-technique), RF/SDR signal analysis (hardware-ctf or wireless-technique), or CTF-framed ICS lab tasks (ics-ctf).
tools
Offensive methodology for authorized game security assessments, game client security research, and game-adjacent penetration testing in real-world engagements. Use when assessing game clients for cheating vulnerabilities, testing anti-cheat effectiveness, auditing game server protocols for score manipulation or economic fraud, reverse engineering game DRM or license validation, analyzing game save file protection, or assessing game mod/plugin security. Covers: process memory scanning and manipulation (Cheat Engine methodology), game binary reversing for license and DRM bypass, game network protocol analysis and packet replay, anti-cheat mechanism analysis, save file format reversing and tampering, speed hack and value injection techniques. Does NOT cover: CTF game challenges (game-ctf), game engine source code auditing (web-exploit-technique or vuln-search-technique for the backend), or general binary exploitation (pwn-ctf or reversing-technique).

Auth assessment: hardware/embedded methodology; UART/JTAG/SWD/SPI/I2C, firmware extraction, boot/debug paths, embedded OS evidence.
