Cansina is a Web Content Discovery Application. It is well known Web applications don't publish all their resources or public links, so the only way to discover these resources is requesting for them and check the response. Cansina duty is to help you making requests and filtering the responses to tell apart if it is an existing resource or just an annoying or disguised 404. Other kind of useful responses (401, 403, ...) are processed in a similar fashion. Responses are kept in a sqlite database for later process or viewing.
You can stop and resume a task by ctrl-c, a resume file will be generated for you.
Check the options '-h' for more features.
There is an ongoing effort to add features via plugins.
Feature requests and comments are welcome.
Cansina is included in BlackArch Linux, give it a try!

Usage
cansina.py -h for a comprehensive list of features and choices
Simple case
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename
Will make GET requests using 4 threads by defaultBanning HTTP responde codes to output
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -b 404,400,500
Selected codes will be skippedAdding a .php extension to every record in payload
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -e php
Make all payload entries end with an extensionAdding a list of extensions
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -e php,asp,aspx
Same as above but will repeat every request for every extension providedInspecting content
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -c look_for_this_text
Cansina will report to screen if the content is detected in responseFiltering by content
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -d look_for_this_text
If the content is found it will be processed as a 404 Not Found pageAutodiscriminator
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -D
First, Cansina will try to make and remember a 404 response and will skip similar responsesReplacing
cansina.py -u target_url/
*_this/ -p payload_filename
Simple string replacing. Useful when a URL pattern is observableSize filtering
cansina.py -u target_url -s 1495 -p payload_filename
If you don't want a response and know its size is fixed this could help skipping all those responses.Also, it can be a list of sizes:
cansina.py -u target_url -s 0,1495,1337 -p payload_filename
Uppercase all requests
cansina.py -u target_url -U -p payload_filename
Just make every payload UPPERCASEThreading
cansina.py -u target_url -t8 -p payload_filename
Set the threading level. 4 by default.Change GET -> HEAD requests
cansina.py -u target_url -H -p payload_filename
Make requests using HEAD HTTP method. Be aware size and content filtering won't workDelay between requests
cansina.py -u target_url -T 1.25 -p payload_filename
Set a delay between resquests. Time is set in float format. E.g: 1.25 secondsUser agent
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -a user_agent
Set an alternative User-Agent stringProxy requests
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -Phttp://127.0.0.1:8080
Simple http proxyBasic authentication
cansina.py -u target_url -p payload_filename -Auser:password
Manages basic authenticationResume session
cansina.py -r resume_file
Resume last interrupted session with all options and payload with former linenumberParse robots.txt
cansina.py -R
Cansina will parse the robots.txt file an use it as a payload if it existsImportant
This tool is intended to be used in a fair and legal context, meaning, for example, a penetration testing for which you have been provided previous authorization.
One of its legitimate uses might be the one described in the following article:
Dependencies
- requests
- Python 2.7.x
