Features & Capabilities

HiddenThings checks whether the site you're browsing exposes files it shouldn't — or standard files worth knowing about.

Automatic scan: on every page load, it checks for robots.txt, sitemap.xml, security.txt, and about 50 other standard/.well-known/ files. It also reads robots.txt itself and tests any extra paths listed in its Disallow/Allow/Sitemap entries.

Advanced recon (opt-in, manual): on request, it tests roughly 220 paths commonly checked in bug bounty recon — .git/, .env files, SSH keys, TLS certificates, cloud credentials, shell history files, CMS config files, debug endpoints, log files.

Custom wordlist (opt-in): paste your own list of paths to test against the current site.

Customization: Easily change the theme color and toggle between light and dark modes.

Source map discovery (opt-in): scans <script> tags on the page and checks for matching .js.map files, which sometimes leak unminified source code.

To cut down on false positives, every scan is checked against a request to a path that's guaranteed not to exist. If a site returns 200 OK for that too (common with single-page apps and custom error pages), matching results are filtered out instead of reported as found.

Each result links directly to the file and has a one-click download button.

All requests are made from the extension's own background/popup context using fetch(). Nothing is sent anywhere except to the site you're already on.

Meant for security research, bug bounty testing, and OSINT on sites you own or are authorized to test.

Is HiddenThings — OSINT Scanner Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

HiddenThings — OSINT Scanner requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

HiddenThings — OSINT Scanner is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
