Hi Andres, another nasty thing. I'll explain first, then see the corresponding debug. Tried to write a fix, but it seems not that simple without understanding how w3af works.
Here we go: * a requests returns with a 302 status response (including a Location header) * the given FQDN in the Location header cannot be resolved (for whatever reason) * w3af fails to open and throws an exception (see below) * after several such exceptions (how many?) w3af stops completely It would be nice if there is a simple single line for the 302, something like: request to http://some.tld/whatever returned 30x to http://other.tld/whatever If the FQDN is not resolvable, a corresponding one-line message instead of the stack trace. In this case (see below) the information returned in the Location header is important, it yields some internal hostnames:) Here the debug example: ----------------------- [ 05/06/09 14:35:12 - debug ] keepalive: added one connection, len(self._hostmap["pbc-vip:8080"]): 10 [ 05/06/09 14:35:14 - debug ] Incrementing global error count.
