（转）Top 10 Web Application Penetration Testing Tools (actually 11)
转自：http://www.lo0.ro/2011/top-10-web-application-penetration-testing-tools-actually-11/
Well this is not quite a default top ten list (based on witch one is the smarter/faster/better) but just a simple list of applications you can use in a pentest. Free and open source app come first.
1. Arachni
Arachni is a feature-full, modular, high-performance Ruby framework aimed towards helping penetration testers and administrators evaluate the security of web applications.
Arachni is smart, it trains itself by learning from the HTTP responses it receives during the audit process.
Unlike other scanners, Arachni takes into account the dynamic nature of web applications and can detect changes caused while travelling
through the paths of a web application's cyclomatic complexity.
This way attack/input vectors that would otherwise be undetectable by non-humans are seamlessly handled by Arachni.
Finally, Arachni yields great performance due to its asynchronous HTTP model (courtesy of Typhoeus).
Thus, you'll only be limited by the responsiveness of the server under audit and your available bandwidth.
Note: Despite the fact that Arachni is mostly targeted towards web application security, it can easily be used for general purpose scraping, data-mining, etc with the addition of custom modules.
Sounds cool, right?

HTTP Sniffer - Intercept, log and modify all HTTP/HTTPS traffic and reveal all data sent by a web application.
HTTP Fuzzer - Perform sophisticated fuzzing tests to test web applications input validation and handling of
unexpected and invalid random data. Test thousands of input parameters with the easy to use rule builder of
the HTTP Fuzzer. Tests that would have taken days to perform manually can now be done in minutes.

This tool has a free version (the above link) but also an advance version (paid)
6. Skipfish
Skipfish is an active web application security reconnaissance tool. It prepares an interactive sitemap for the targeted site by carrying out a recursive crawl and dictionary-based probes. The resulting map is then annotated with the output from a number of active (but hopefully non-disruptive) security checks. The final report generated by the tool is meant to serve as a foundation for professional web application security assessments.
High risk flaws (potentially leading to system compromise):
Server-side SQL / PHP injection (including blind vectors, numerical parameters).
Explicit SQL-like syntax in GET or POST parameters.
Server-side shell command injection (including blind vectors).
Server-side XML / XPath injection (including blind vectors).
Format string vulnerabilities.
Integer overflow vulnerabilities.
Locations accepting HTTP PUT.
Medium risk flaws (potentially leading to data compromise):
Stored and reflected XSS vectors in document body (minimal JS XSS support present).
Stored and reflected XSS vectors via HTTP redirects.
Stored and reflected XSS vectors via HTTP header splitting.

9. Netsparker
Netsparker will try lots of different things to confirm identified issues. If it can't confirm it and if it requires manual inspection, it'll inform you about a potential issue generally prefixed as [Possible], but if it's confirmed, that's it. It's a vulnerability. You can trust it.
Netsparker confirms vulnerabilities by exploiting them in a safe manner. If a vulnerability is successfully exploited it can't be a false-positive. Exploitation is carried out in a non-destructive way.

Well this is my top 11 list of web application penetration testing tools. It has 11 items but the last one is a bit expensive so thats why ten (and SEO reasons 
) )
If i forgot one please do comment.
Thanks
