WAFW00F - Identifies and Fingerprints Web Application Firewall (WAF) Products

• Sends a normal HTTP request and analyses the response; this identifies a number of WAF solutions
• If that is not successful, it sends a number of (potentially malicious) HTTP requests and uses simple logic to deduce which WAF it is
• If that is also not successful, it analyses the responses previously returned and uses another simple algorithm to guess if a WAF or security solution is actively responding to our attacks

What does it detect?
It detects a number of WAFs. To view which WAFs it is able to detect run WAFW00F with the -l option. At the time of writing the output is as follows:

$ ./wafw00f -l

                                 ^     ^
