This commit removes the "Basic Penetration Testing Tools" section and
moves numerous items listed therein into more appropriate places, based
on existing categories. For instance, BeEF is moved to the Web
Exploitation section, since it is more accurate to describe it as a Web
exploitation tool than a "Basic" tool. The former category is
descriptive while the latter is clearly nondescript.
A new section, "Multi-paradigm Frameworks," has been added for items
that were listed under the removed "Basic" section but that do not
cleanly fit into an existing category. Namely, these are Metasploit,
ExploitPack, and Faraday, which are exceptions simply because they are
so versatile. (Hence the choice of the new section, "Multi-paradigm.")
Additionally, the well-known Armitage GUI for Metasploit was added.
Moreover, Bella was moved to a new section, "macOS Utilities," which
provides parity with the existing Windows Utilities and GNU/Linux
Utilities section. Bella is a post-exploitation agent similar to
redsnarf, which likewise has been moved out of the "Basic" section and
into its more appropriate Windows Utilities section.
Other minor touch ups to various item descriptions were also made.
* Add CVE List to Vulnerability Databases section, since it was missing.
* Style guide compliance pass focused on Vulnerability Databases section.
* Whitelist the Inj3ct0r URLs.
The `0day.today` website sits behind an extremely aggressive Cloudflare
anti-bot checker, which causes `awesome-bot` to trigger an HTTP 503
response. This fails the build but is actually normal behavior.
Similarly, the Onion service is inaccessible except over Tor and our
Travis CI configuration does not (yet?) support checking Onion service
links. (Although, perhaps it should be updated to do so in a future PR.)
This commit provides more detail and context for the vulnerability
scanners section. It groups Web Scanners into its own subheading, and
moves scanning tools from the Web Exploitation section into this section
as these tools do not actually focus on *exploiting* websites.
Additionally, Static Analyzers are grouped, two new static analyzers
(cppcheck and FindBugs) have been added, and commercial tools are
appropriately described as such.
This commit focuses on terminological consistency, including:
* Use consistent capitalization for abbreviations (OSInt -> OSINT).
* Consistently expand ambiguous phrases (OS -> operating system).
* Settle on standard names (Wi-Fi -> WiFi, etc.) where a mix was used.
* Expand acronyms in item titles when doing so shortens the description.
* Replace descriptions that merely expanded acronyms with actual text.
* Remove duplicate items that have more than one URL (Commix project).
* Do not Title Case description text when description is simply prose.
This commit tidies some minor issues with pull request #141, namely:
* fix style guide compliance from accidental reversion during merge.
* add a period to the last sentence of the introduction paragraph.
* make the table of contents's content match the headings in the doc.
* consistently spell open source without a dashed word ("open-source").
This commit is a first-pass attempt at adhering to the style guide of
the Awesome List contribution guidelines at
https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/blob/master/pull_request_template.md
Specificaly, I have:
* added a succinct description of the project/theme at top of README.
* added the awesome badge on the right side of the list heading.
* titled the table of contents `Contents`.
* moved the `CONTRIBUTING.md` file to the expected filesystem path.
* capitalized the first word of link descriptions, when present.
* added trailing periods to link descriptions, when not present.
* removed the "A" and "An" prepositions from link descriptions.
* removed the Travis CI build status badge.
* matched the heading levels to the style guide's recommendations.
