Note: If you chose the Bash, Docker or Docker Compose installation methods, you can skip the next sections and go straight to Usage.
secator
uses external tools, so you might need to install languages used by those tools assuming they are not already installed on your system.
We provide utilities to install required languages if you don't manage them externally:
secator
does not install any of the external tools it supports by default.
We provide utilities to install or update each supported tool which should work on all systems supporting apt
:
Please make sure you are using the latest available versions for each tool before you run secator or you might run into parsing / formatting issues.
secator
comes installed with the minimum amount of dependencies.
There are several addons available for secator
:
secator
makes remote API calls to https://cve.circl.lu/ to get in-depth information about the CVEs it encounters.
We provide a subcommand to download all known CVEs locally so that future lookups are made from disk instead:
secator install cves
To figure out which languages or tools are installed on your system (along with their version):
secator health
secator --help
Run a fuzzing task (ffuf
):
secator x ffuf http://testphp.vulnweb.com/FUZZ
Run a url crawl workflow:
secator w url_crawl http://testphp.vulnweb.com
