HTTP Parameter Discovery Suite

Features

• Multi-threading

Usage

Note: Arjun doesn't work with python < 3.4

Discover parameters

To find GET parameters, you can simply do:

python3 arjun.py -u https://api.example.com/endpoint --get

Similarly, use --post to find POST parameters.

Multi-threading

Arjun uses 2 threads by default but you can tune its performance according to your network connection.

python3 arjun.py -u https://api.example.com/endpoint --get -t 22

Delay between requests

You can delay the request by using the -d option as follows:

python3 arjun.py -u https://api.example.com/endpoint --get -d 2

Including presistent data

Let's say you have an API key that you need to send with every request, to tell Arjun to do that you can use the --include option as follows:

python3 arjun.py -u https://api.example.com/endpoint --get --include 'api_key=xxxxx'

OR

python3 arjun.py -u https://api.example.com/endpoint --get --include '{"api_key":"xxxxx"}'

To include multiple parameters, use & to seperate them or pass them as a valid json object.

JSON Output

You can save the result in a JSON format by using the -o as follows:

python3 arjun.py -u https://api.example.com/endpoint --get -o result.json

Adding HTTP Headers

Using the --headers switch will open an interactive prompt where you can paste your headers. Press Ctrl + S to save and Ctrl + X to procced.

Note: Arjun uses nano as the default editor for the prompt but you can change it by tweaking /core/prompt.py.
