Exploiting a Directory Listing vulnerability in a web server.
Directory listing is a web server vulnerability that shows a list of all the files and folders present in the server in case an index file, such as index.php, index.html, or default.asp is not present. This might expose critical information to anyone who finds the location. A website spider(Web Crawler) crawls in the website to find all the directory that was mentioned in the index page. Create a website crawler using python that finds out all the directories present in the index page. Run it against any website to find the directories.
Deliverables:
Share the code in Pagure/GitHub and attach the Asciinema. Write how can we prevent this attack in the README.md file.
