x8 is a hidden parameter discovery suite written in Rust for security testing of web applications. It brute-forces parameter names against URLs and bodies, using response comparison and reflection analysis to accurately identify hidden parameters.

Use cases

  • discover hidden query parameters on a web endpoint
  • find hidden POST body parameters during bug bounty recon
  • brute-force parameter names with a custom wordlist
  • check thousands of URLs for hidden parameters in parallel
  • detect parameters with non-random values like admin=true
  • integrate hidden parameter discovery into Burp Suite workflows

When to choose

  • you need fast, accurate hidden parameter discovery for web security testing
  • you want to fuzz query strings, bodies, or custom parameter templates
  • you need a scalable CLI tool for large-scale recon in bug bounty programs

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose web vulnerability scanner rather than parameter discovery
  • you want a GUI-based testing tool
  • you are not authorized to test the target web application
