How to Hack Google Search Commands.& Google Hacking Master list

Google search engine can be used to hack into remote servers or gather confidential or sensitive information which are not visible through common searches.

Google is the world’s most popular and powerful search engine. It has the ability to accept pre-defined commands as inputs which then produces unbelievable results.

Google’s Advanced Search Query Syntax

Discussed below are various Google’s special commands and I shall be explaining each command in brief and will show how it can be used for getting confidential data.

[ intitle: ]

The “intitle:” syntax helps Google restrict the search results to pages containing that word in the title.

intitle: login password


will return links to those pages that has the word "login" in their title, and the word "password" anywhere in the page.

Similarly, if one has to query for more than one word in the page title then in that case “allintitle:” can be used instead of “intitle” to get the list of pages containing all those words in its title.

intitle: login intitle: password


is same as

allintitle: login password


[ inurl: ]

The “inurl:” syntax restricts the search results to those URLs containing the search keyword. For example: “inurl: passwd” (without quotes) will return only links to those pages that have "passwd" in the URL.

Similarly, if one has to query for more than one word in an URL then in that case “allinurl:” can be used instead of “inurl” to get the list of URLs containing all those search keywords in it.

allinurl: etc/passwd


will look for the URLs containing “etc” and “passwd”. The slash (“/”) between the words will be ignored by Google.

[ site: ]

The “site:” syntax restricts Google to query for certain keywords in a particular site or domain.

exploits site:hackingspirits.com


will look for the keyword “exploits” in those pages present in all the links of the domain “hackingspirits.com”. There should not be any space between “site:” and the “domain name”.

[ filetype: ]

This “filetype:” syntax restricts Google search for files on internet with particular extensions (i.e. doc, pdf or ppt etc).

filetype:doc site:gov confidential


will look for files with “.doc” extension in all government domains with “.gov” extension and containing the word “confidential” either in the pages or in the “.doc” file. i.e. the result will contain the links to all confidential word document files on the government sites.


[ link: ]

“link:” syntax will list down webpages that have links to the specified webpage.

link:www.expertsforge.com


will list webpages that have links pointing to the SecurityFocus homepage. Note there can be no space between the "link:" and the web page url.


[ related: ]

The “related:” will list web pages that are "similar" to a specified
web page.

related:www.expertsforge.com


will list web pages that are similar to the Securityfocus homepage. Note there can be no space between the "related:" and the web page url.


[ cache: ]

The query “cache:” will show the version of the web page that Google
has in its cache.

cache:www.hackingspirits.com


will show Google's cache of the Google homepage. Note there can be no space between the "cache:" and the web page url.

If you include other words in the query, Google will highlight those words within the cached document.

cache:www.hackingspirits.com guest


will show the cached content with the word "guest" highlighted.

[ intext: ]

The “intext:” syntax searches for words in a particular website. It ignores links or URLs and page titles.

intext:exploits


will return only links to those web pages that has the search keyword "exploits" in its webpage.


[ phonebook: ]

“phonebook” searches for U.S. street address and phone number information.

phonebook:Lisa+CA


will list down all names of person having “Lisa” in their names and located in “California (CA)”. This can be used as a great tool for hackers incase someone want to do dig personal information for social engineering. 

Google Hacks

Well, the Google’s query syntaxes discussed above can really help people to precise their search and get what they are exactly looking for.

Now Google being so intelligent search engine, hackers don’t mind exploiting its ability to dig much confidential and secret information from the net which they are not supposed to know. Now I shall discuss those techniques in details how hackers dig information from the net using Google and how that information can be used to break into remote servers.

Index Of

Using “Index of ” syntax to find sites enabled with Index browsing

A webserver with Index browsing enabled means anyone can browse the webserver directories like ordinary local directories. The use of “index of” syntax to get a list links to webserver which has got directory browsing enabled will be discussd below. This becomes an easy source for information gathering for a hacker. Imagine if the get hold of password files or others sensitive files which are not normally visible to the internet. Below given are few examples using which one can get access to many sensitive information much easily.

Index of /admin
Index of /passwd
Index of /password
Index of /mail

"Index of /" +passwd
"Index of /" +password.txt
"Index of /" +.htaccess

"Index of /secret"
"Index of /confidential"
"Index of /root"
"Index of /cgi-bin"
"Index of /credit-card"
"Index of /logs"
"Index of /config"


Looking for vulnerable sites or servers using “inurl:” or “allinurl:”

a. Using “allinurl:winnt/system32/” (without quotes) will list down all the links to the server which gives access to restricted directories like “system32” through web. If you are lucky enough then you might get access to the cmd.exe in the “system32” directory. Once you have the access to “cmd.exe” and is able to execute it.


b. Using “allinurl:wwwboard/passwd.txt”(without quotes) in the Google search will list down all the links to the server which are vulnerable to “WWWBoard Password vulnerability”. To know more about this vulnerability you can have a look at the following link:

http://www.securiteam.com/exploits/2BUQ4S0SAW.html

c. Using “inurl:.bash_history” (without quotes) will list down all the links to the server which gives access to “.bash_history” file through web. This is a command history file. This file includes the list of command executed by the administrator, and sometimes includes sensitive information such as password typed in by the administrator. If this file is compromised and if contains the encrypted unix (or *nix) password then it can be easily cracked using “John The Ripper”.

d. Using “inurl:config.txt” (without quotes) will list down all the links to the servers which gives access to “config.txt” file through web. This file contains sensitive information, including the hash value of the administrative password and database authentication credentials.

For Example: Ingenium Learning Management System is a Web-based application for Windows based systems developed by Click2learn, Inc. Ingenium Learning Management System versions 5.1 and 6.1 stores sensitive information insecurely in the config.txt file. For more information refer the following
links: http://www.securiteam.com/securitynews/6M00H2K5PG.html

Other similar search using “inurl:” or “allinurl:” combined with other syntax

inurl:admin filetype:txt
inurl:admin filetype:db
inurl:admin filetype:cfg
inurl:mysql filetype:cfg
inurl:passwd filetype:txt
inurl:iisadmin
inurl:auth_user_file.txt
inurl:orders.txt
inurl:"wwwroot/*."
inurl:adpassword.txt
inurl:webeditor.php
inurl:file_upload.php

inurl:gov filetype:xls "restricted"
index of ftp +.mdb allinurl:/cgi-bin/ +mailto


Looking for vulnerable sites or servers using “intitle:” or “allintitle:”

a. Using [allintitle: "index of /root”] (without brackets) will list down the links to the web server which gives access to restricted directories like “root” through web. This directory sometimes contains sensitive information which can be easily retrieved through simple web requests.

b. Using [allintitle: "index of /admin”] (without brackets) will list down the links to the websites which has got index browsing enabled for restricted directories like “admin” through web. Most of the web application sometimes uses names like “admin” to store admin credentials in it. This directory sometimes contains sensitive information which can be easily retrieved through simple web requests.

Other similar search using “intitle:” or “allintitle:” combined with other syntax

intitle:"Index of" .sh_history
intitle:"Index of" .bash_history
intitle:"index of" passwd
intitle:"index of" people.lst
intitle:"index of" pwd.db
intitle:"index of" etc/shadow

WIFI PASSWORD HACKER

WiFi Password Hacker For PC: The world we live now is a complete package of technology and its successor, the Internet. Emerge of the internet have brought the whole world under one’s eye. The internet is everything now, and one need to pay for it, however. Good things never come for free at times. But the internet can be made available for free sometimes. One way of using the free internet is using the unencrypted WiFi network available in the nearby location such as in cafe, railway station and other public places.

The other method is by using the secured and encrypted WiFi internet access. The name encryption refers the protection given to the WiFi network regarding username and a password. No issues when both the username and password is known. What if you don’t have both the things? No worries. Just hack the WiFi network with password hacking software.




Of course, this article would deal ultimately about the hacking. One could completely enjoy the internet without paying a single buck with WiFi password hacking software for PCs. It is certain you have the internet connection in the form of encrypted WiFi and not able to utilise the Internet over that network. The problem felt in using the encrypted WiFi network is the password. Only the authenticated user knows the password of that particular system such that providing security from unauthorised user access to that network. Technology always provides a solution for any problem and for here with hacking.

What is Hacking?

Hacking is the solution to use the internet for free from the secured network. i.e., an unauthorised process that destroys the security of any wireless local area network, WiFi. The person involved in the hacking activity is called as a hacker. Any WiFi network can easily hack with two points that include weak encryption and configuration.

If the configuration of that particular network is weak, then that network can be easily hacked. Poor configuration occurs as a result of the network admin’s irresponsibility in not providing a stronger password without the security settings and the use of default configuration. Encryption issues include the security keys used to protect the network such as WEP and WPA.




Wireless Network Encryption
Any hacking process needs to cross the boundary of network encryption to use the internet for free. Encryption is nothing but the password given to the system to protect the illegal internet usage. The password must be hacked or cracked (i.e. password must be found out) which is the first requirement of the hacking. However, several frames have to be crossed before finding the password. Encryption falls under three categories WEP, WPA and WPA2.

Any system can be protected with any of the authentications or encryption methods. They differ regarding how strong the encryption wall is. Nothing much and nothing more.

1. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP is the encryption standard available for the wireless network protection initially. Designed for IEEE 802.11 WLAN. Any network with WEP security can be hacked easily within few minutes with the correct configuration. It is the weakest form of authentication or encryption provided for a wireless network. WEP works by encrypting the data transmitted over the network.
2. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
Due to the great flaws and vulnerabilities in WEP made the system user opt for WPA. In this method, security is high. But if the password falls short, then hacking is easy. WPA uses pre-shared keys. Several tools were available for hacking.
3. Wi-Fi Protected Access2 (WPA2)
WPA2 got developed due to the vulnerabilities in WPA and to enhance the security further. It is the most used encryption method for any wireless network since indulging in hacking such system is a complex task. WPA2 with Advanced Encryption Standards (AES) makes the security stronger. It uses a pre-shared key or a passphrase. The network with WPA2 security takes much time to be hacked. Hacking can be done at the time of packets generated from the wifi access point.

WiFi Password Hacking Methods
Hacking is neither a one step process nor it is simple. Any hacker requires an extended knowledge in hacking methods. There are numerous approaches and ways available for hacking a secured WiFi network. Even software’s are available to hack the security of the system. The list of most commonly used hacking methods to hack or crack any authenticated wireless network is given.

Dictionary Attack: In this method, thousands of words with likely possibilities from the dictionary will be compared to decrypt the password. Security can be hacked within few seconds if the passphrase is only alphabets. It is since the user prefers simple passphrase to remember.

Brute Force Attack: It is similar to the Dictionary attack added the advantage of searching for the password from outside the dictionary. i.e. alphanumeric possibilities. Brute force method takes little more time to hack the password.

Rainbow Table Attack: In this method, pre-computed hash tables will be chosen to check for the passphrase. Passwords get stored in a database in any system. Another database will be created, and the password will be found out by this method. It checks for the commonly used passwords in both the database. When a match is found, then it is the password of that secured network.

Phishing: Communication through the electronic medium to obtain the password is Phishing. i.e. a mail or message send to the user such that asking for their personal details to fill in for a fake website. Those websites have links to sites with malware. It is still the most popular way to steal the password.

Social Engineering: It uses one individual acting for a telephone call from in the name of an unknown person or company asking for your details. It is not only used in hacking but also for various purposes.

Malware:  Malware installs a key logger or screen scraper that records all the things you type or take screen shots and forwards a copy to the hacker.

Spidering: The passwords of most organisations would relate to their company information that would be available on the company websites. Information taken from there will perform dictionary and brute force attack.

Guess: Sometimes the user would not have changed the default password provided by the network or use some simple passwords. With a guess, security could be hacked.

Key Features Of WiFi Password Hacker Software For PC.

The wifi password hacker software is a free tool to decrypt any secure wifi network.
The password hacker software is a virus free version.
The password hacker software works on all operating systems.

WiFi Hacking Tools

The password hacker software tools are available in number in the market. One need to pick the right password hacker software to enjoy the internet without creating any problem to the hackers own system. The tools available will incorporate the hacking methods as described above within it. Thus allowing the user to enjoy the internet with ease. The software doesn’t require its user to know any in-depth knowledge about the hacking techniques. Below given are the most used and popular wifi password hacker for PC.

1. Aircrack

The Aircrack password hacker for PC is the first most used wifi hacker tool for pc. It is utilised for decrypting the password of the system which uses 802.11 a/b/g WEP and WAP-PSK encryption.

5 Cyber Threats: World's Biggest Concern

Today the world has become completely dependant on the web. From buying a kitchen set to concluding a multi-million deal is done over the internet, there is always this mounting fear of what could happen if all this gazillions of classified and private information goes into wrong hands.


The world isn’t just under the threat of hacking attacks on the data centers or endemic computer viruses but there is always a creeping concern about the further generations getting crippled due to overdependence on the internet.


Let’s take a closer look at those perilous threats that cyber crime and internet as a whole poses at us.



1. The Dark Hour


There is hardly any organization which is not connected to the great web, either directly or indirectly. To an extent it is possible for any individual to access data stored in any server across the globe. Even though organizations boast about being fool proofed, there is always some or the other loop hole that gets overlooked. And then there is electricity and power plant, the back-bone of a country’s economy, even those are connected to the web. For instance, an attack on the power controllers or major power stations of a country can hamper its whole economy; force the country into darkness and a virtual paralysis for days together. It is a terrible thing to imagine.

2. Moving the Mass



With more and more social networking sites and blogging applications gaining popularity it is getting easier for people to reach the mass and present their thoughts. Thoughts and voices get viral over the internet pretty quickly. Protest groups use the network to the fullest extent in provoking the mass and encompassing more and more supporters. Remember the London Riots of 2011, how messages sent through the Blackberry Messengers had brought millions of protestors on road and caused a real chaos for the city authorities.





3. Children of the Web Age




Technology, otherwise a boon, can often go hideously adverse to cripple the society and rip it from its roots. It is already apparent that the present generation is extremely dependant on the internet and its conveniences; hence the generations to come would be further dependant. Under certain circumstances, something like politics or democracy face a grave danger. People will deny voting, unless there is a fully functioning web ballot.


4. Hack Attack 


Intrusion and interception is not an alien to any paradigm of communication. Computers, business machines and cell phone networks, everything has been attacked by hackers already. Apple, which had always been certain about its imperceptible security, also faced reality when recently more than 600,000 Apple computers were infected with the Flashback Trojan. An average hacker earns about $1,000 to $5,000 per day and a single attack can cause an equivalent loss to an individual victim, reports Digg. Hence it is strongly recommended to have effective security tools installed on the devices which are used over the network.


5.  Dying Privacy




With all those vehicles of Google taking pictures of street and houses and all your personal information available on your bank portal and Facebook, there is barely any room for privacy or confidentiality over the internet. CISPA, a cyber security act proposed by the US House of Representative declares that the information available to the internet companies will be freely accessible to the federal agencies to prevent cyber crime. Though the intentions of the government might be genuine, but there goes your privacy. Imagine all this information about billions of people, if gone into wrong hands can cause indescribable threat to the society.
