In this post I will write a bit about Assetfinder which is an quick and awesome tool for finding subdomains. The tool is available in Github and was created by Tom Hudson (@tomnomnom on Twitter).

According to the information on Github, Assetfinder uses the following resources to find subdomains

  • crt.sh
  • certspotter
  • hackertarget
  • threatcrowd
  • wayback machine
  • dns.bufferover.run
  • facebook
  • virustotal
  • findsubdomains

Pre requisites:
1. You need to have Golang installed. If you haven’t used golang before and need help to get started, read my guide on how to install Golang on Kali Linux

2. Download assetfinder by running the following command.
go get -u github.com/tomnomnom/assetfinder

3. If you used my guide to install Go you can now find assetfinder at:
/root/go-workspace/bin/assetfinder

How to use Assetfinder:
Navigate to assetfinder and run
./assetfinder exampledomain.com
If you only want the subdomains you can add –subs-only.
./assetfinder --subs-only exampledomain.com

assetfinder --subs-only
Save the output to a file:
You can also save the output to a file by adding “> filename”
./assetfinder --subs-only exampledomain.com > domains

Assetfinder - Save output

The tool is really quick so it is perfect to use it when you want a fast way to find subdomains for a target company. I really love this tool. <3

How to Install Golang in Kali Linux

golang

Golang (Go) is a programming language that are becoming more and more popular and I have seen many interesting tools that are written in Go. Since Go are not being installed by default in Kali Linux I thought that publishing a quick-start guide could be a good idea.

  1. Start by open your web browser and visit https://golang.org/dl/
  2. Download the latest version for Linux – “gox.xx.x.linux-amd64.tar.gz”
    Download page on golang.org
  3. Open your terminal and navigate to your downloads folder
    cd /root/Downloads
  4. Extract the files
    tar -C /usr/local/ -xzf go1.13.6.linux-amd64.tar.gz
  5. Add variables for GO by modifying “~/.bashrc”
    vim ~/.bashrc
    Add the following paths to the end of the file
    export GOPATH=/root/go-workspace
    export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
    PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin/:$GOPATH/bin
  6. Now we need to refresh the bashrc to get the updated variables
    source ~/.bashrc
  7. Now we just need to verify that everything is correct configured and we can do that by creating a simple ‘hello world’ program in Go.
    vim helloworld.go
    Add the following code to the file:
    package main
    import "fmt"
    func main() {
    fmt.Printf("Hello world!\n")
    }
    Then save the file and try to run the program:
    go run helloworld.go
    If everything was configured correctly you should see something like this:
    golang.helloworld
    hackerman1
    You are now ready to use Golang on your Kali Linux machine!
