Forbidden – Bypass 4Xx HTTP Response Status Codes

Forbidden – Bypass 4Xx HTTP Response Status Codes



Bypass 4xx HTTP response status codes. Based on PycURL.

Script uses multithreading, and is based on brute forcing so might have some false positives. Script uses colored output.

Results will be sorted by HTTP response status code ascending, content length descending, and ID ascending.

To filter out false positives, check each content length manually with the provided cURL command. If it does not results in bypass, just ignore all other results with the same content length.


Test Scope
Various HTTP methods method
Various HTTP methods with 'Content-Length: 0' header method
Cross-site tracing (XST) with HTTP TRACE and TRACK methods method
File upload with HTTP PUT method method
Various HTTP method overrides method-override
Various HTTP headers header
Various URL overrides header
URL override with two 'Host' headers header
Various URL path bypasses path
Basic authentication/authorization including null session auth
Broken URL parser check parser

Extend this script to your liking.

Tested on Kali Linux v2021.4 (64-bit).

Made for educational purposes. I hope it will help!

Future plans:

  • add option to test only allowed HTTP methods,
  • do not ignore URL parameters and fragments.
