shortscan v0.8 releases: An IIS short filename enumeration tool

shortscan

Shortscan is designed to quickly determine which files with short filenames exist on an IIS webserver. Once a short filename has been identified the tool will try to automatically identify the full filename.

In addition to standard discovery methods Shortscan also uses a unique checksum matching approach to attempt to find the long filename where the short filename is based on Windows’ proprietary shortname collision avoidance checksum algorithm (more on this research at a later date).

Changelog v0.8

• Added support for scanning multiple URLs
• Added URL validation; Fixed a race condition where autocomplete sometimes matched the same filename twice
• Ran the code through gofmt
• Improved the interface a little
