OSINT: How to discover malware using Shodan?

Hello, I'm useless.

I came across this article.

https://medium.com/@morimolymoly/hunting-open-directories-and-malware-with-shodan-af23a62e37d7

So, I'll give it a try.

First, register with Shodan, then enter this into the search bar and search:

http.title:"Directory listing for" http.html:.exe  

The rest is about brute-forcing the IPs that come up with this. If I try opening it...

It seems to be searching for hosts where .exe files exist.

That's all for this quick note.

See you next time.
