Commix - Automated Command Injection and Exploitation Tool

Commix (short for [comm]and [i]njection e[x]ploiter) is an automated tool that you can use to test web-based applications with the view to find bugs, errors or vulnerabilities related to command injection attacks. By using this tool, it is very easy to find and exploit a command injection vulnerability in a certain vulnerable parameter or HTTP header.

Requirements

Python 2.6.x or 2.7.x
Linux/ Mac OS X/ Windows (experimental)

Installation

Download commix by cloning the Git repository:

  git clone http://ift.tt/2iPAE5V commix

Commix comes packaged on the official repositories of the following Linux distributions so you can use the package manager to install it!

Commix also comes as a plugin, on the following penetration testing frameworks:

TrustedSec's Penetration Testers Framework (PTF)
OWASP Offensive Web Testing Framework (OWTF)
