APIDetector is a powerful and efficient tool designed for testing exposed Swagger endpoints in various subdomains with unique smart capabilities to detect false-positives. It’s particularly useful for security professionals and developers who are engaged in API testing and vulnerability scanning.
Before running APIDetector, ensure you have Python 3.x and pip installed on your system. You can download Python here.
Clone the APIDetector repository to your local machine using:
git clone https://github.com/brinhosa/apidetector.git
cd apidetector
pip install requests Run APIDetector using the command line. Here are some usage examples:
python apidetector.py -i list_of_company_subdomains.txt -o results_file.txt -t 30 -ua "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/90.0.4430.212 Safari/537.36" To scan a single domain:
python apidetector.py -d example.com To scan multiple domains from a file:
python apidetector.py -i input_file.txt To specify an output file:
python apidetector.py -i input_file.txt -o output_file.txt To use a specific number of threads:
python apidetector.py -i input_file.txt -t 20 To scan with both HTTP and HTTPS protocols:
python apidetector.py -m -d example.com To run the script in quiet mode (suppress verbose output):
python apidetector.py -q -d example.com To run the script with a custom user-agent:
python apidetector.py -d example.com -ua "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/90.0.4430.212 Safari/537.36" -d, --domain: Single domain to test.-i, --input: Input file containing subdomains to test.-o, --output: Output file to write valid URLs to.-t, --threads: Number of threads to use for scanning (default is 10).-m, --mixed-mode: Test both HTTP and HTTPS protocols.-q, --quiet: Disable verbose output (default mode is verbose).-ua, --user-agent: Custom User-Agent string for requests.Exposing Swagger or OpenAPI documentation endpoints can present various risks, primarily related to information disclosure. Here’s an ordered list based on potential risk levels, with similar endpoints grouped together APIDetector scans:
