Yes, it seems that it's something good to have in the framework. I have like a ton of questions about how it works, could you please send the script (as it is) to this mailing list for us to read it? > the > only problem being is that I have been unable to find a plugin > development manual to be able to implement my script. There is no development manual :( For the type of feature that you want to add, the correct thing is to use a discovery plugin. discovery plugins are simple, they follow these rules: - the entry point is the discover method - the discover method takes a fuzzable request object as a parameter, and returns a list of fuzzable requests (fuzzable requests are representations of GET/POST requests, which represent links, and forms) - the discover method is called several times in the same scan, with the different links that (for example) the webSpider finds. I think that the best thing you can do is to read one or two discovery plugins (my recommendations are discovery.crossDomain and discovery.userDir), and start building your own plugin based on one of those. > Is there a dev manual out there?

You should develop the plugin yourself, is fun and good for the project =) Cheers, > Thank you, > Ryan > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
