What and Why

  • I’ve always loved this tool—it was born out of COVID boredom and has proven useful through many bug bounties and CVE disclosures. It’s provided red-teamers and pentesters with actionable wordlists and remains simple yet effective. However, due to some Python library dependencies, packaging it for Kali Linux has been a challenge. To improve its performance and speed, I’m migrating the tool to Go. This will allow it to process large PDFs much faster. I hope the community will appreciate this work, and I aim for it to eventually be included in a future release of Kali.

TODO

  • Update documentation and naming
  • Replace workflows with Go releaser and testing
  • Update .gitignore
  • Move Python code somewhere else in case people still want to use it (python directory)
  • Add version and documentation commands
  • Add Go-specific build and lint files
