Search Results for "regex"

...Instead of scanning only a limited set of repositories, the tool leverages GitHub’s Code Search API to analyze results from across the entire public GitHub ecosystem, including repositories and Gists. GitHound examines files returned by search queries and applies detection methods such as regex pattern matching, entropy analysis, and contextual evaluation to identify likely credentials. It can also dig into commit history to uncover secrets that may have been removed or reverted but still exist in older revisions. This capability makes it useful for security researchers, DevSecOps teams, and bug bounty hunters who need to detect leaked credentials.

gitGraber is a Python-based security tool designed to monitor GitHub in real time to detect exposed sensitive information in publicly indexed repositories. It scans recently indexed files on GitHub and searches for patterns that may indicate leaked credentials, API keys, or other confidential data used by popular online services. Instead of analyzing the full history of repositories, the tool focuses on newly indexed content, allowing security researchers and bug bounty hunters to quickly...

urlhunter is an open source reconnaissance tool designed to help security researchers discover URLs that have been exposed through URL shortener services such as bit.ly and goo.gl. It works by analyzing large datasets generated from brute-forced short links that are publicly released by the URLTeam project. These datasets contain resolved long URLs that were originally hidden behind short links, which can sometimes reveal sensitive or previously unknown endpoints. urlhunter downloads these...

GitGot is an open source security tool designed to help users quickly search large amounts of public data on GitHub to identify potentially exposed secrets. It operates as a semi-automated, feedback-driven system that combines automated search capabilities with human guidance to refine results during investigation. GitGot leverages the GitHub Search API to perform queries across repositories, files, and gists, allowing security researchers and penetration testers to discover sensitive...
