Three hackers' Google search skills

As we all know, Google is undoubtedly the most powerful search engine in the world today. However, in the hands of hackers, it is also a secret weapon, which can search for some information you unexpectedly want. The editor of Saidi briefly summarized them not that you hope you can use him to attack other people's websites, but that you can use these skills to find a needle in a haystack in the vast number of online information and find information that is useful to you.

If you are an ordinary netizen, you can use hacker skills to expand your horizons and improve your search efficiency; if you are a network administrator, please check whether your website has taken precautions for the following hacker detection methods. If not, hurry up and make up for it. After all, hidden dangers are better than open flames, and prevention is better than disaster relief. If you are a hacker, I believe you have seen similar methods on other hacker sites. This article is of no use to you. The skills here are pediatric and rookie-level! You can save valuable time to do more meaningful things. You don’t have to read this article, go elsewhere!

Based on the above considerations, I have compiled and published this article.

Search URL

For example, we submit this form: site: This form of submission.

What did you see? Do you think it's too incredible? There are many message boards based on CGI/PHP/ASP type that have this problem. Sometimes we get a password or even a clear code! The administrator may be too irresponsible, or the awareness of security prevention is too poor. If you are a network administrator, check it quickly and don’t let malicious attackers get the bargain. Don’t believe in DES encryption too much. Even if our password is encrypted by DES, hackers can still solve it through many cracking software.

This time we can get a file containing the password. "site:" means searching only URLs. is a web server provider.

Similarly, we can search for some top-level domain names, such as: .net .org .jp .in .gr

 site:.jp 

 site:.tw 

Search the directory for home page

The home page is very useful and it will provide you with a lot of useful information.

We submit the following form:

"Index of /admin" 

"Index of /secret" 

"Index of /cgi-bin" site:.edu 

You can define the home page characters for searching yourself. This allows you to obtain a lot of information.

Search for specific file types

For example, if you want to specify a file type, you can submit the following form:

filetype:.doc site:.mil classified 

This is to search for military information, you can customize the search.
