It uses specially crafted search queries to identify and download the following file types (pdf, xls, xlsx, csv, doc, docx, ppt, pptx) from a given domain using Google and Bing scraping.
Once downloaded, metadata is extracted from these files using Phil Harvey's exiftool and added to a .csv report. Alternatively, Pymeta can be pointed at a directory to extract metadata from files manually downloaded using the -dir command line argument. See the Usage, or All Options section for more information.
Why?
Metadata is a common place for penetration testers and red teamers to find: domains, user accounts, naming conventions, software/version numbers, and more!
