A fast, Go-based CLI scanner for detecting web cache poisoning and web cache deception vulnerabilities. It supports many attack techniques, includes a crawler, adapts to the target cache, and integrates into CI/CD pipelines.

Use cases

  • scan a website for web cache poisoning vulnerabilities
  • test for web cache deception attacks
  • find unkeyed header and parameter poisoning in my CDN
  • check if my site is vulnerable to request smuggling via cache
  • integrate cache vulnerability scanning into CI/CD
  • audit web cache security during a pentest
  • crawl a site and test all URLs for cache flaws

When to choose

  • you need automated detection of web cache poisoning or deception across many techniques
  • you want a fast CLI tool that fits into CI/CD or bug bounty workflows
  • you need JSON reports and proxy support (e.g., Burp Suite) for security testing

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose web vulnerability scanner covering XSS, SQLi, etc.
  • you want a GUI-based scanning tool
  • you are not authorized to test the target site
