A few months ago, HunterX was an idea.
Today, HunterX v7.0.0 is out β and people are actually using it.
π 2,200+ Docker pulls
β 1,200+ GitHub stars
π Listed across major cybersecurity communities
And this is only the beginning.
HunterX wasn't built to be another vulnerability scanner that runs a bunch of tools and throws hundreds of alerts at you.
I built it around a different idea:
Don't just find something suspicious. Prove it.
π§ From scanning to hunting
HunterX follows an offensive-security workflow:
Observe β Understand β Hypothesize β Probe β Verify β Prove
It looks at the target, builds context, forms attack hypotheses, chooses the appropriate capabilities, tests them, correlates what comes back, and works toward a verified finding with evidence.
Because:
Scanner alert β Vulnerability
A real finding should answer:
β’ What is vulnerable?
β’ Why is it vulnerable?
β’ Can it be reproduced?
β’ What is the impact?
β’ Can I demonstrate it with a PoC?
That is the difference between collecting alerts and actually hunting vulnerabilities.
βοΈ Built for people who actually hunt
Whether you're a:
π΄ Bug Bounty Hunter looking for real attack paths
π‘οΈ Pentester testing applications from recon to validation
π― Red Teamer thinking in objectives and attack paths
π¬ Security Researcher testing hypotheses and behavior
HunterX is designed to help you move from:
Recon β Testing β Validation β Evidence
Instead of:
Scan β 5,000 alerts β figure out what matters
π₯ What can HunterX work across?
Asset & subdomain discovery
Port & service discovery
Web & API security
Authentication & authorization
SQL Injection
XSS
IDOR
LFI
Fuzzing
Browser-based testing
Cloud attack-surface intelligence
Evidence & PoC collection
Finding validation
Security-tool orchestration
AI-assisted security decisions
The point isn't to replace every tool.
The point is to make the tools work together as part of an actual hunting workflow.
π And HunterX is getting noticed
HunterX is now listed in:
π‘οΈ OWASP Community
β Awesome Security
π΄ Awesome Red Teaming
π€ Awesome AI in Cybersecurity
π Awesome AI for Security
For an open-source project, seeing HunterX become part of these communities is a huge milestone.
But stars and listings aren't the goal.
People using HunterX to find and prove real vulnerabilities are.
π HunterX v7.0.0
Open source.
Python 3.11+.
Docker ready.
Linux Β· macOS Β· Windows.
β 1,200+ GitHub stars
π³ 2,200+ Docker pulls
If you're doing bug bounty, pentesting, red teaming, or security research:
Don't just run another scanner.
Try HunterX.
π https://github.com/nullc0d30/HunterX
Give it a target.
Let it hunt.
See what it can actually prove.
πΊ HunterX
Less Noise. More Verified Findings.
The hunt continues.
