Brute-Force Attack

Description: This is a Python script for performing a simple brute-force attack on a login page. It takes a username and a list of passwords from a file, and then iterates through each password, attempting to log in to the target website until a valid password is found.

Requirements :

• Python 3.x
• requests library (install with pip install requests)
• termcolor library (install with pip install termcolor)

Usage:

1. Make sure you have Python installed on your system.
2. Install the required libraries by running the following commands:

pip install requests
pip install termcolor

3. Save the list of passwords in a file. Each line in the file should contain one password.
4. Run the script using the following command:

python script.py

5. The script will prompt you to provide the necessary information:

• Enter the URL of the login page.
• Enter the username for the account you want to brute-force.
• Enter the path to the password file.
• Provide the string that occurs on the page when login fails.
• Optionally, provide the cookie value if the website requires it.

6. The script will start the brute-force attack and display the attempted passwords. If it successfully finds the correct password, it will print the username and password and exit.

Important Notes :

• This script is intended for educational and ethical purposes only. Only use it on systems that you have explicit permission to test.
• Brute-force attacks are not recommended as they can be illegal and may cause harm to the target system. Use it responsibly and with caution.
• Always use strong and unique passwords to protect your online accounts.
