๐Ÿ”ฅ 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[.]com

๐ŸŽฏ 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

๐Ÿ›  Pro Dork Combinations

Find Configuration Files

site:example.com ext:env | ext:config | ext:yml | ext:yaml

Discover Backup Files

site:example.com ext:bak | ext:backup | ext:old | ext:save

Locate Admin Panels

site:example.com inurl:admin | inurl:login | inurl:dashboard

Find API Endpoints

site:example.com inurl:api | inurl:rest | inurl:graphql

๐Ÿ’ก 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

โš ๏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

๐Ÿ›ก 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
