If we recognize that any of our input was pasted into the URL
, the web application uses a GET
form. Otherwise, it uses a POST
form.
In summary, we need to provide three parameters, separated by :
, as follows:
URL path
, which holds the login formPOST parameters
for username/passwordA failed/success login string
, which lets hydra recognize whether the login attempt was successful or not
For fail/success, We can specify two different types of analysis that act as a Boolean value.
Type | Boolean Value | Flag |
---|---|---|
Fail | FALSE | F=html_content |
Success | TRUE | S=html_content |
