Also it will extract a list of disclosed PATHs in the metadata, with this information you can guess OS, network names, shared resources etc.<\/p>\n<p>This new version extracts MAC address from Microsoft Office documents. Now you can have an idea of what kind of hardware they are using.<\/p>\n<p>All this information should not be available on the net, but most of the companies don&#8217;t have policies about information leaking&#8230; and most of them don&#8217;t know this information exists. So you can show them what information an attacker can obtain, with this simple technique. <\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3033787195489589\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Darknet Responsive Post Ad Links [previously link ad unit] -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3033787195489589\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"5456620019\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<h3>How to use Metagoofil for Information Gathering<\/h3>\n<pre>-d: domain to search\r\n-t: filetype to download (pdf,doc,xls,ppt,odp,ods,docx,xlsx,pptx)\r\n-l: limit of results to search (default 200)\r\n-h: work with documents in directory (use \"yes\" for local analysis)\r\n-n: limit of files to download\r\n-o: working directory (location to save downloaded files)\r\n-f: output file\r\n\r\nExamples:\r\n\tmetagoofil.py -d apple.com -t doc,pdf -l 200 -n 50 -o applefiles -f results.html\r\n\tmetagoofil.py -h yes -o applefiles -f results.html (local dir analysis)<\/pre>\n<p>Also, check out:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darknet.org.uk\/2015\/06\/just-metadata-gathers-analyse-ip-address-metadata\/\">Just-Metadata \u2013 Gathers &#038; Analyse IP Address Metadata<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darknet.org.uk\/2008\/01\/the-revisionist-metadata-retrieval-tool\/\">The Revisionist \u2013 Metadata Retrieval Tool<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can download Metagoofil information gathering tool here:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/google-code-archive-downloads\/v2\/code.google.com\/metagoofil\/metagoofil-2.2.tar.gz\">metagoofil-2.2.tar.gz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Or read more <a href=\"https:\/\/code.google.com\/archive\/p\/metagoofil\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Metagoofil is an information gathering tool designed for extracting metadata of public documents (pdf,doc,xls,ppt,odp,ods) available on the target\/victim website.
