Detection Options

Learn about the available Verdex options to optimize your scans.

Basics

To perform its scans, Verdex needs the URL of the target to scan, for example:

-target · URL

verdex -target https://keycloak.example.com

By default, Verdex tries to automatically detect the target product.
Use -product to specify the product to scan (see Products section for options).

Multiple targets

To scan multiple targets at the same time, use -list (one target per line):

-list · filepath

verdex -list ./targets.txt

Output formats

To change the output format of Verdex results, see dedicated page:

Output Formats

Learn about the different output formats that Verdex supports.

Logging

To display verbose output (useful for debug), use -verbose:

-verbose · boolean · default: false

verdex -target https://example.com -verbose

Custom templates

Verdex uses templates to run scans (see Contribute section for more information).

By default, templates are loaded from latest release of official Verdex repository.

To run scans with custom templates, use -templates-directory:

-templates-directory · dirpath

verdex -target https://example.com -templates-directory ./templates

If Verdex is run locally with go run ., templates directory is automatically set to ./templates
