About project
DirDigger is an efficient directory digging and busting tool that offers a range of features surpassing those of its alternatives. It serves a dual purpose, being an invaluable asset for both CTF enthusiasts and individuals engaged in the scanning of web app directories and API URLs encompassing bug bounty programs.
Originally conceived as a portfolio project to create a Burp extension similar to gobuster/dirbuster, DirDigger experienced the creation and implementation of novel ideas and features, transforming it into a fully comprehensive directory digging tool.
Features
DirDigger current features:
- Works as BurpSuite extension and as desktop java application
- Tree representation for existing urls
- Recursive (directory depth and thread number can be set)
- Proxy support
- Filtered response codes
- Follow redirects
- See urls that are grouped by redirect in a Redirect Tree (if redirects were followed)
- File extensions
- Multiple file loading for keywords list
- Rate limiter detection (if detected scanning will be slowed down)
- Ignoring volatile params
- Stopping and Continuing execution
- Saving progress to a file and option to load a file to continue execution or see results (useful when working in team)

Project future
To-do list for future enhancements:
- Contexts (if domain has subdomains and you want to scan them at the same time, by changing context you can see progress and trees for a particular hostname)
- In here maybe some cross context communication can exist (e.g. when one hostname redirects to another)
- Pass selected urls, or 200 urls, to site map (one-way sync)
- there can exist two-way sync also -> to initialize tree in DirDigger extension based on site map and start working on that
- add option to create contexts based on target (Burp targets)
- create cli version and modularize the project
- save threads and application state in some PostgreSQL db (can be useful for teams that are performing application security testing)
