In VAF there will also be a vaf_linux_amd64 binary for linux users already compiled by me, but that’s not going to be always updated
Linux: Install
nim using: curl https://nim-lang.org/choosenim/init.sh -sSf | sh and adding nim to path
Windows: Download
nim from https://nim-lang.org/install_windows.html and run finish.exe (you might need to reopen a cmd window for nim to load)
nimble build
A vaf binary file will be created in your directory ready to be used

Tips
, in the suffixes or prefixes argument to try the word without any suffix/prefix like this: -pf .php, or -sf .php,-pif with a bunch of xss payloads as the wordlist to find XSSGeneral Working of a Web Application Firewall (WAF) A Web Application Firewall (WAF) acts as…
