DorXNG - Next Generation DorX. Built By Dorks, For Dorks


DorXNG is a modern solution for harvesting OSINT data using advanced search engine operators through multiple upstream search providers. On the backend it leverages a purpose built containerized image of SearXNG, a self-hosted, hackable, privacy focused, meta-search engine.

Our SearXNG implementation routes all search queries over the Tor network while refreshing circuits every ten seconds with Tor's MaxCircuitDirtiness configuration directive. We have also disabled all of SearXNG's client side timeout features. These settings allow for evasion of search engine restrictions commonly encountered while issuing many repeated search queries.

The DorXNG client application is written in Python3, and interacts with the SearXNG API to issue search queries concurrently. It can even issue requests across multiple SearXNG instances. The resulting search results are stored in a SQLite3 database.


We have enabled every supported upstream search engine that allows advanced search operator queries:

  • Google
  • DuckDuckGo
  • Qwant
  • Bing
  • Brave
  • Startpage
  • Yahoo

For more information about what search engines SearXNG supports See: Configured Engines

Setup ️

LINUX ONLY ** Sorry Normies **

Install DorXNG

git clone https://github.com/researchanddestroy/dorxngcd dorxngpip install -r requirements.txt./DorXNG.py -h

Download and Run Our Custom SearXNG Docker Container (at least one). Multiple SearXNG instances can be used. Use the --serverlist option with DorXNG. See: server.lst

When starting multiple containers wait at least a few seconds between starting each one.

docker run researchanddestroy/searxng:latest

If you would like to build the container yourself:

git clone https://github.com/researchanddestroy/searxng # The URL must be all lowercase for the build process to completecd searxngDOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 make docker.builddocker imagesdocker run <image-id>

By default DorXNG has a hard coded server variable in parse_args.py which is set to the IP address that Docker will assign to the first container you run on your machine 172.17.0.2. This can be changed, or overwritten with --server or --serverlist.

Start Issuing Search Queries

./DorXNG.py -q 'search query'

Query the DorXNG Database

./DorXNG.py -D 'regex search string'

Tips 

Sometimes you will hit a Tor exit node that is already shunted by upstream search providers, causing you to receive a minimal amount of search results. Not to worry... Just keep firing off queries. 

Keep your DorXNG SQL database file and rerun your command, or use the --loop switch to iterate the main function repeatedly. 

Most often, the more passes you make over a search query the more results you'll find. 

Also keep in mind that we have made a sacrifice in speed for a higher degree of data output. This is an OSINT project after all. 

Each search query you make is being issued to 7 upstream search providers... Especially with --concurrent queries this generates a lot of upstream requests... So have patience.

Keep in mind that DorXNG will continue to append new search results to your database file. Use the --database switch to specify a database filename, the default filename is dorxng.db. This probably doesn't matter for most, but if you want to keep your OSINT investigations seperate it's there for you.

Four concurrent search requests seems to be the sweet spot. You can issue more, but the more queries you issue at a time the longer it takes to receive results. It also increases the likelihood you receive HTTP/429 Too Many Requests responses from upstream search providers on that specific Tor circuit.

If you start multiple SearXNG Docker containers too rapidly Tor connections may fail to establish. While initializing a container, a valid response from the Tor Connectivity Check function looks like this:

If you see anything other than that, or if you start to see HTTP/500 response codes coming back from the SearXNG monitor script (STDOUT in the container), kill the Docker container and spin up a new one.

HTTP/504 Gateway Time-out response codes within DorXNG are expected sometimes. This means the SearXNG instance did not receive a valid response back within one minute. That specific Tor curcuit is probably too slow. Just keep going!

There really isn't a reason to run a ton of these containers... Yet...  How many you run really depends on what you're doing. Each container uses approximately 1.25GBs of RAM.

Running one container works perfectly fine, except you will likely miss search results. So use --loop and do not disable --timeout.

Running multiple containers is nice because each has its own Tor curcuit thats refreshing every 10 seconds.

When running --serverlist mode disable the --timeout feature so there is no delay between requests (The default delay interval is 4 seconds).

Keep in mind that the more containers you run the more memory you will need. This goes for deep recursion too... We have disabled Python's maximum recursion limit... 

The more recursions your command goes through without returning to main the more memory the process will consume. You may come back to find that the process has crashed with a Killed error message. If this happens your machine ran out of memory and killed the process. Not to worry though... Your database file is still good. 

If your database file gets exceptionally large it inevitably slows down the program and consumes more memory with each iteration...

Those Python Stack Frames are Thicc... 

We've seen a marked drop in performance with database files that exceed approximately 50 thousand entries.

The --limitdatabase option has been implemented to mitigate some of these memory consumption issues. Use it in combination with --loop to break deep recursive iteration inside iterator.py and restart from main right where you left off.

Once you have a series of database files you can merge them all (one at a time) with --mergedatabase. You can even merge them all into a new database file if you specify an unused filename with --database.

DO NOT merge data into a database that is currently being used by a running DorXNG process. This may cause errors and could potentially corrupt the database.

The included query.lst file is every dork that currently exists on the Google Hacking Database (GHDB). See: ghdb_scraper.py

We've already run through it for you...  Our ghdb.db file contains over one million entries and counting! 朗 You can download it here ghdb.db if you'd like a copy. 

Example of querying the ghdb.db database:

./DorXNG.py -d ghdb.db -D '^http.*\.sql$'

A rewrite of DorXNG in Golang is already in the works.  (GorXNG? | DorXNGNG?) 

We're gonna need more dorks...  Check out DorkGPT
