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
