spikeproxy(1) web application auditing tool

SYNOPSIS

spkproxy [-s SSLproxyhost] [-p port] [-U NTLMUser] [-D NTLMDomain] [-P NTLMPassword] [-l ListenHost] [-c cache_directory]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the spikeproxy command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

SPIKE proXY functions as an HTTP and HTTPS proxy, and allows web developers or web application auditors low level access to the entire web application interface, while also providing a number of automated tools and techniques for discovering common problems. These automated tools include:

1.Automated SQL Injection Detection

2.Web Site Crawling (guaranteed not to crawl sites other than the one being tested)

3.Login form brute forcing

4.Automated overflow detection

5.Automated directory traversal detection

In addition to automated analysis, SPIKE proXy allows the user to penetrate into the internals of the web application by viewing and changing all variables, cookies, headers, or other parts of the request and resubmit them. SPIKE proXy maintains a careful record of each request made - saving both each request, and the entire response. The user can later go back and replace any request or view any response.

-h proxyHost
Sets a proxy host to use in the proxy chain. Spike will forward all requests to this proxy.
-H proxyPort

-s proxySSLHost
Sets a proxy host for SSL connections. Spike will forward all SSL requests to this proxy.
-S proxySSLPort
