Describe the bug I encountered an issue with the Metafinder command in Recon Mode, where the command failed to execute as expected. This problem prevents me from obtaining recon results.

when I run metafinder separately it works fine but doesn't work on the tool

Which branch and version of reconftw are you using? Which is your python3 version?

varmakollu commented 9 months ago

i'm currently running latest version main-v2.8.1-28-gfcacafc and Python 3.11.7 i tried out reinstallation upto 3 times nothing works on

six2dez commented 9 months ago

Try again switching to dev version, reinstall on dev branch and let me know the exact reconftw command running if that does not works

True, metafinder failing every time. I added the comment on a previously closed issue and was about to create a new issue but saw this one. Metafinder works fine when ran manually but fails every time in reconftw

jakre1234 commented 9 months ago

main branch, latest version. Tried twice with different domains and happens everytime. On tapping ctrl+c whole reconftw exits.

There might be something with your OS, nobody is reporting me this issue :/

jakre1234 commented 9 months ago

I am on debian

I think they got a point, but this seems like a metafinder's problem. The tool seems to be causing errors when supplied with the baidu -ba flag This is from a manual metafinder run replicating reconftw's command metafinder example.com -l 20 -o osint -go -bi -ba

|_ Usage: metafinder -d domain.com -l 50 -o /tmp -go -bi

And I think it's primarily due to local ISP, if you are in India and running reconFTW locally then try removing the -ba flag from the command in the reconftw.sh file

Happy Hacking :)
