Information Gathering Using Backtrack Tool Goofile

Information Gathering Using Backtrack Tool Goofile

Goofile 

This is a cool little tool that comes packaged with Backtrack but also can be downloaded from http://code.google.com/p/goofile/downloads/list
The Goofile tool can search for a specific file in a given domain. The little but powerful tool was written in python by Thomas Richards at www.g13net.com.

Goofile can be found in Backtrack under Applications | Backtrack | Information Gathering | Web Application Analysis | Open source Analysis or you can open a terminal windows and enter the following command:

 cd /pentest/enumeration/google/goofile



To conduct a search using the tool Goofile you only need to type the following command in a terminal:


./goofile.py -d "domain" -f "filetype" (PHP,PDF,TXT)

"./goofile" is used to invoke the goofile python script. "-d" switch is used to specify the target domain to be searched "-f" switch is used to specify which type of files you want goofile to attempt to locate.
