Sherlock: Mixcloud always returns statusCode 200 and does not contain errorMsg.

Created on 17 Jul 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: sherlock-project/sherlock

Hi, I ran sherlock with this command and the result is:

(sherlock) C:\Users\dongtak\Downloads\sherlock-master>python sherlock.py hey_sherlock_xyz --site Mixcloud
                                              ."""-.
                                             /      \
 ____  _               _            _        |  _..--'-.

                                          /      `--.|   \__/

[*] Checking username hey_sherlock_xyz on:
[+] MixCloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/hey_sherlock_xyz
1.1207261085510254

Sherlock found the user hey_sherlock_xyz on Mixcloud but mixcloud.com/hey_sherlock_xyz does not exist.

And Mixcloud always returns code 200. Besides, does not contain errorMsg.

>>> r = request(method="GET", url=" https://www.mixcloud.com/hey_sherlock_xyz")
<Response [200]>
>>> "Page Not Found" in r.text
False

Therefore, Mixcloud is always showing false positive!

It turns out that they have an unauthenticated API available. So, I converted over to that.

Thanks for finding the bug!

Yeah, I am seeing the same thing. It appears that they have changed their website. Before, they rendered their "Page Not Found" error message in HTML. Now, they must be creating that text with javascript.

I think that we are going to have to remove this site.

Agreed.
