๐ฅ The Dork That Exposes Everything
inurl:test | inurl:env | inurl:dev | inurl:staging | inurl:sandbox | inurl:debug | inurl:temp | inurl:internal | inurl:demo site:example[.]com๐ฏ What You'll Find
- Test environments with weaker security
- Development servers often containing debug data
- Staging sites with real production data
- Sandbox environments that might be misconfigured
- Internal tools accidentally exposed to the internet
๐ Pro Dork Combinations
Find Configuration Files
site:example.com ext:env | ext:config | ext:yml | ext:yamlDiscover Backup Files
site:example.com ext:bak | ext:backup | ext:old | ext:saveLocate Admin Panels
site:example.com inurl:admin | inurl:login | inurl:dashboardFind API Endpoints
site:example.com inurl:api | inurl:rest | inurl:graphql๐ก Why This Works
- Developers often forget to block search engines from test environments
- Test sites frequently have weaker authentication
- Debug information might be enabled
- Real credentials and data are often present
โ ๏ธ Important Notes
- Only test authorized targets
- Report findings responsibly through proper channels
- Don't exploit without permission
- Many companies have bug bounty programs for these findings
๐ก Defense Tips for Companies
- Robots.txt โ Properly block search engine indexing of non-production environments
- Authentication โ Require login for all internal/test environments
- Network Segmentation โ Keep test environments internal-only
- Monitoring โ Alert on unauthorized access attempts
