Kiterunner
Context-aware API route brute-forcer using real-world API schema wordlists (Assetnote).
Quick Start
# Download binary from https://github.com/assetnote/kiterunner/releases
# Scan with default wordlist
kr scan https://target.com -w routes-small.kite
# Scan from file of hosts
kr scan hosts.txt -w routes-large.kite -x 20
# Replay a finding with full request detail
kr replay -w routes-small.kite "GET 403 [ 191, 9, 1] https://target.com/api/v1/user"
Core Flags
| Flag | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| -w FILE | Kite wordlist (.kite or .txt) |
| -x N | Concurrent requests |
| --ignore-length N | Filter by response length |
| -H "K:V" | Custom header |
| -A "bearer:TOKEN" | Auth header shorthand |
| --fail-status-codes | Codes treated as failures |
| --success-status-codes | Codes treated as hits |
| -o json | JSON output |
| --delay N | Per-request delay (ms) |
Common Workflows
Authenticated API scan:
kr scan https://api.target.com -w routes-large.kite -A "bearer:$TOKEN" -x 30
Filter noise — ignore typical 404/400 lengths:
kr scan https://api.target.com -w routes-small.kite --ignore-length 19
Replay to inspect full response:
kr replay -w routes-large.kite "POST 200 [ 512, 10, 2] https://api.target.com/api/v2/admin"

VerifiedTrustedCommunity
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).

VerifiedTrustedCommunity
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).
