BackdoorMan is A Python open source toolkit that helps you find malicious, hidden and suspicious PHP scripts and shells in a chosen destination, it automates the process of detecting the above.
Purpose:
The main purpose of BackdoorMan is to help web-masters and developers to discover malicious scripts in their site files, because it is quite common for hackers to place a back-door on a site they have hacked. A back-door can give the hacker continued access to the site even if the site owners change account passwords. Back-door scripts will vary from 100s of lines of code to 1 or 2 lines of code and can be merged in hundreds of files which makes it very hard to discover it, especially if the back-door is inactive. There is common ways and tools that can be used including grep, but BackdoorMan automates all the above as described earlier and make it even more easier (at least I hope so).
