Interactsh
An OOB interaction gathering server and client library
Interactsh is an open-source tool for detecting out-of-band interactions. It is a tool designed to detect vulnerabilities that cause external interactions. Interactsh Cli client requires go1.17+ to install successfully. interactsh-client with -sf, -session-file flag can be used store/read the current session information from user defined file which is useful to resume the same session to poll the interactions even after the client gets stopped or closed. Running the interactsh-client in verbose mode (v) to see the whole request and response, along with an output file to analyze afterwards. Using the server flag, interactsh-client can be configured to connect with a self-hosted Interactsh server, this flag accepts single or multiple server separated by comma. Default servers are subject to change/rotate/down at any time, thus we recommend using a self-hosted interactsh server if you are experiencing issues with the default server. -

PostgREST
REST API for any Postgres database
PostgREST is a standalone web server that turns your PostgreSQL database directly into a RESTful API. The structural constraints and permissions in the database determine the API endpoints and operations. Using PostgREST is an alternative to manual CRUD programming. Custom API servers suffer problems. Writing business logic often duplicates, ignores or hobbles database structure. Object-relational mapping is a leaky abstraction leading to slow imperative code. The PostgREST philosophy establishes a single declarative source of truth: the data itself. It’s easier to ask PostgreSQL to join data for you and let its query planner figure out the details than to loop through rows yourself. It’s easier to assign permissions to db objects than to add guards in controllers. (This is especially true for cascading permissions in data dependencies.) It’s easier to set constraints than to litter code with sanity checks. -

uvicorn
An ASGI web server, for Python
Uvicorn is an ASGI web server implementation for Python. Until recently Python has lacked a minimal low-level server/application interface for async frameworks. The ASGI specification fills this gap, and means we're now able to start building a common set of tooling usable across all async frameworks. Uvicorn currently supports HTTP/1.1 and WebSockets. -

The panel emphasizes performance defaults and security best practices, offering features like one-click TLS, user isolation, and straightforward firewall controls. Developers can manage multiple domains, configure vhosts, and switch between runtime versions without juggling command-line scripts. Built-in monitoring and logs help diagnose issues and keep an eye on resource usage as traffic grows. Its design targets cloud environments, making it easy to install on popular providers and scale horizontally as needed. For small businesses and agencies, it reduces operational overhead by turning routine server administration into a few predictable clicks. -

Gunicorn
WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX, fast clients and sleepy applications
Gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX. It's a pre-fork worker model. The Gunicorn server is broadly compatible with various web frameworks, simply implemented, light on server resources, and fairly speedy. You can run Gunicorn by using commands or integrate with popular frameworks like Django, Pyramid, or TurboGears. For deploying Gunicorn in production see Deploying Gunicorn. After installing Gunicorn you will have access to the command line script gunicorn. Gunicorn also provides integration for Django and Paste Deploy applications. Gunicorn will look for a WSGI callable named application if not specified. So for a typical Django project. Frameworks such as Pyramid and Turbogears are typically configured using Paste Deployment configuration files. If you would like to use these files with Gunicorn, there are two approaches. As a server runner, Gunicorn can serve your application using the commands from your framework, such as pserve or gearbox.
