FlashFuzz: A Browser Extension for Quick URL Fuzzing and Secret Scanning

SMRTR summary

FlashFuzz is a browser extension that helps security researchers quickly test websites for vulnerabilities by automatically trying different URL variations and scanning for exposed secrets. The tool streamlines finding hidden files, directories, and sensitive information that websites might accidentally expose. By running directly in the browser, FlashFuzz eliminates the need for separate command-line tools and allows researchers to immediately test any website they're viewing. This extension improves accessibility for web security testing, helping security professionals identify and report vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them.
