Success on the 3rd attempt in getting log4j/log4shell remote command execution security vulnerability scanner developed by Adil Soybali to run without HTTPX error message

Subject: Success on the 3rd attempt in getting log4j/log4shell remote command execution security vulnerability scanner developed by Adil Soybali to run without HTTPX error message


Good day from Singapore,


The problem is of course, I was using httpx from the wrong software developer. I had tried to use httpx from https://www.python-httpx.org/, which is wrong. You need to use httpx from the correct software developer, which is https://github.com/projectdiscovery/httpx


At present, there are 2 known different software developers for httpx. The wrong one to use is from https://www.python-httpx.org/. The correct one to use is from https://github.com/projectdiscovery/httpx


There is no programming bug/error with the linux shell script log4j-rce-scanner.sh in the log4j remote command execution security vulnerability scanner developed by Adil Soybali, a security researcher. I have briefly and quickly glanced through the programming code. This is a linux tool and must be installed and run on a Linux machine.


Uninstall httpx from https://www.python-httpx.org


$ sudo pip uninstall httpx


Install httpx from software developer projectdiscovery.


$ wget https://github.com/projectdiscovery/httpx/releases/download/v1.1.4/httpx_1.1.4_linux_amd64.zip


$ unzip httpx_1.1.4_linux_amd64.zip


$ sudo mv httpx /usr/local/bin


END
