HTTP AUTHORIZATION (-u username: password)

[Olivia]

HTTP Authentication/Authentication mechanisms are all based on the use of 401-status code and WWW-Authenticate response header. The most generally used HTTP authentication mechanisms are Primary. The client sends the user name and password un-encrypted base64 encoded data.
So, to avoid this kind of authentication with the help of Gobuster, we have used the command below:

gobuster dir -u http://testphp.vulnweb.com/login.php -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirb/common.txt -U test -P test –wildcard​
