Enforce a Time Limit on Your Scan

Version 1.10.0 adds the ability to set a maximum runtime, or time limit, on your scan. The usage is pretty simple: a number followed directly by a single character representing seconds, minutes, hours, or days. feroxbuster refers to this combination as a time_spec.

Examples of possible time_specs:

  • 30s - 30 seconds
  • 20m - 20 minutes
  • 1h - 1 hour
  • 1d - 1 day (why??)

A valid time_spec can be passed to --time-limit in order to force a shutdown after the given time has elapsed.
