Kurl

A Fast and Simple HTTP Client for Security Researchers

InstallUsageConcept

Install Kurl

cargo install kurl

For this to work you need to have Rust installed

Concept

Kurl was created to aid my work as a Red Teamer. Kurl creates an easy to view data sent via HTTP requests by the URLs provided, showing:

  • Status code.
  • Response length.
  • HTTP Verb.
  • Data format (json or xml).
  • Content-Type.
  • The URL itself.

With kurl it's easy to parse through many URLs to find relevant data. You can visually find what's important for you, or even output to a file and grep things.

Usage

kurl --help
