AcuAutomate

AcuAutomate is an unofficial Acunetix CLI tool that simplifies automated pentesting and bug hunting across extensive targets. It's a valuable aid during large-scale pentests, enabling the easy launch or stoppage of multiple Acunetix scans simultaneously. Additionally, its versatile functionality seamlessly integrates into enumeration wrappers or one-liners, offering efficient control through its pipeline capabilities.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/danialhalo/AcuAutomate.git
cd AcuAutomate
chmod +x AcuAutomate.py
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Configuration (config.json)

Before using AcuAutomate, you need to set up the configuration file config.json inside the AcuAutomate folder:

{
    "url": "https://localhost",
    "port": 3443,
    "api_key": "API_KEY"
}

• The URL and PORT parameter is set to default acunetix settings, However this can be changed depending on acunetix configurations.
• Replace the API_KEY with your acunetix api key. The key can be obtained from user profiles at https://localhost:3443/#/profile

Usage

The help parameter (-h) can be used for accessing more detailed help for specific actions

usage: AcuAutomate.py [-h] {scan,stop} ...

Launch or stop a scan using Acunetix API

positional arguments:
  {scan,stop}  Action to perform
    scan       Launch a scan use scan -h
    stop       Stop a scan

options:
  -h, --help   show this help message and exit

Scan Actions

For launching the scan you need to use the scan actions:

xubuntu:~/AcuAutomate$ ./AcuAutomate.py scan -h
    
usage: AcuAutomate.py scan [-h] [-p] [-d DOMAIN] [-f FILE]
                           [-t {full,high,weak,crawl,xss,sql}]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -p, --pipe            Read from pipe
  -d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN
                        Domain to scan
  -f FILE, --file FILE  File containing list of URLs to scan
  -t {full,high,weak,crawl,xss,sql}, --type {full,high,weak,crawl,xss,sql}
                        High Risk Vulnerabilities Scan, Weak Password Scan, Crawl Only,
                        XSS Scan, SQL Injection Scan, Full Scan (by default)

Scanning Single Target

The domain can be provided with -d flag for single site scan:

./AcuAutomate.py scan -d https://www.google.com

Scanning Multiple Targets

For scanning multiple domains the domains need to be added into the file and then specify the file name with -f flag:

./AcuAutomate.py scan -f domains.txt

Pipeline

The AcuAutomate can also worked with the pipeline input with -p flag:

cat domain.txt | ./AcuAutomate.py scan -p

This is Great 😍 as it can enable the AcuAutomate to work with other tools. For example we can use the subfinder , httpx and then pipe the output to AcuAutomate for mass scanning with acunetix:

subfinder -silent -d google.com | httpx -silent | ./AcuAutomate.py scan -p

scan type

The -t flag can be used to define the scan type. For example the following scan will only detect the SQL vulnerabilities:

./AcuAutomate.py scan -d https://www.google.com -t sql

Note

AcuAutomate only accept the domains with http:// or https://

Stop Action

The stop action can be used for stoping the scan either with -d flag for stoping scan by specifing the domain or with -a flage for stopping all running scans.

xubuntu:~/AcuAutomate$ ./AcuAutomate.py stop -h

usage: AcuAutomate.py stop [-h] [-d DOMAIN] [-a]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN
                        Domain of the scan to stop
  -a, --all             Stop all Running Scans
