The Web Application Firewall Fingerprinting Toolkit is a tool designed to identify security solutions protecting a website. It fingerprints WAFs by analyzing normal HTTP responses, sending potentially malicious requests, and observing server reactions. It features a CLI for scanning single or multiple URLs, support for input files, and various output formats including JSON, CSV, and text. It can be installed via PyPI, Docker, or from source, and provides a WAFW00F class for programmatic integration.

Identify and fingerprint Web Application Firewall (WAF) products
master
WAFW00F is a tool used to identify and fingerprint Web Application Firewall products. It works by:
1. Sending a normal HTTP request and analyzing the response.
2. Sending potentially malicious HTTP requests to deduce the WAF using simple logic.
3. Analyzing previously returned responses with an algorithm to guess if a WAF or security solution is active if the first two methods fail.

Configure custom headers via file
master
To use custom headers with WAFW00F, provide a text file where each line contains a header name and value separated by a colon. This is useful for bypassing certain WAF rules or simulating specific browsers.

Use WAFW00F to fingerprint a website
master
To use WAFW00F, pass a URL as a command-line argument. You can use the --help flag to view all available options.
```
$ wafw00f https://example.org
```

List supported WAFs
master
Use the -l flag to list all Web Application Firewalls that WAFW00F can currently detect.
```
$ wafw00f -l
```

Load plugins using load_plugins()
master
The load_plugins() function scans the plugins directory relative to the manager.py file, identifies all Python files (excluding __init__.py), and dynamically loads them as modules. It returns a dictionary where the keys are the plugin names (the filename without the .py extension) and the values are the loaded plugin modules.

Integrate the WAFW00F class
master
You can use the WAFW00F class programmatically to perform WAF detection. The class inherits from waftoolsengine and provides methods for performing various attack vectors (XSS, SQLi, LFI, etc.) and identifying WAFs via plugin signatures or generic detection methods.
