    A week or so back i had an e-mail from a friend (FLW) asking me if i had any info on google search tips he was surprised on the amount of info available and open via google...this got me thinking , well i have seen many various search strings in several papers....so i thought i would put them all together on the one page...and up-date as new one are discovered...so if i missed any to be added to the list

    please let me know and i shall add some more....

    SUMMARY

    Everyone knows google in the security sector...and what a powerful tool it is , just by entering certain search strings you can gain a vast amount of knowledge and information of your chosen target...often revealing sensitive data...this is all down to badly configured systems...brought on by sloppy administration allowing directory indexing and accessing , password files , log entrys , files , paths ,etc , etc

    Search Tips

    so how do we start ?

    The common search inputs below will give you an idea...for instance if you want to search for the an index of "root" in the search box put in exactly as you see it below

    Example 1:

    allintitle: "index of/root"

    Result:

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=allintitle:+"index+of/root"&btnG=Google+Search

    what it reveals is 2,510 pages that you can possible browse at your will...

    Example 2

    inurl:"auth_user_file.txt"

    http://www.google.com/search?num=10...inurl:"auth_user_file.txt"&btnG=Google+Search

    this result spawned 414 possible files to access

    Here is an actual file retrieved from a site and edited , we know who the admin is and we have the hashes thats a job for JTR (john the ripper)

    txUKhXYi4xeFs|master|admin|Worasit|Junsawang|xxx@xxx|on
    qk6GaDj9iBfNg|tomjang||Bug|Tom|xxx@xxx|on

    with the many variations below it should keep you busy for a long time mixing them reveals many different permutations

    *************************************
