# WAF Detection & Fingerprinting

Identify any front-end shield (Cloudflare, AWS WAF, Akamai, Imperva, etc.) so exploit can choose appropriate evasion (encoding, payload obfuscation, alternate transport). A multi-proxy/CDN stack is also the recognition signal for HTTP request smuggling — note this for handoff.

## Tooling

```bash
# wafw00f
wafw00f https://<target>

# Manual detection via response patterns
curl -s "https://<target>/?id=1' OR '1'='1" -I | grep -iE '(server|x-cdn|cf-ray|x-sucuri|x-aws)'
```
