## Description
|
|
|
|
OSINT templates are available for conducting user enumeration across many websites. By utilizing the flag to input a user, Nuclei can verify the user's existence across all websites listed in the templates and report any instances of success.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The templates within the `osint` directory are **self-contained** and do NOT require URLs as input because the OSINT templates have pre-defined static URLs. Each template in this directory expects the user(name), email, or phone number to be supplied as input using the `V`/`var` flag through the Nuclei engine.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Running OSINT templates against a single user to test
|
|
nuclei -t osint/ -var user=some-user
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Categories
|
|
|
|
The OSINT templates are classified into categories such as `archived`, `art`, `blog`, `business`, `coding`, `dating`, `finance`, `gaming`, `health`, `hobby`, `images`, `misc`, `music`, `news`, `political`, `search`, `shopping`, `social`, `tech`, `video`, `porn`.
|
|
|
|
To execute OSINT templates within a particular category, you can apply a filter using the `tags` flag and set the prefix value to `osint-`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Running OSINT templates against the social category
|
|
nuclei -t osint/ -tags osint-social -var user=some-user
|
|
|
|
# Running OSINT templates against the multiple categories
|
|
nuclei -t osint/ -tags osint-social,osint-finance -var user=some-user
|
|
```
