Uncover and httpx

[HachimanSec]

Hello,
I try to run uncover with httpx, and later with nuclei. However it doesnt really work.

What I do is:
uncover -q TARGET -v -f host | httpx -sc -title -server

I do see the output of uncover, but nothing from httpx:

uncover -q TARGET -v -f host | httpx -sc -title -server -cname -v

[INF] Current uncover version v1.0.6 (latest)
[INF] Current httpx version v1.3.5 (latest)
[shodan] TARGET.de

If I take one result from uncover and manually run httpx, it works. For example:

httpx -sc -title -server -cname -u nas.TARGET.de

             /_/

                projectdiscovery.io

[INF] Current httpx version v1.3.5 (latest)
https://nas.TARGET.de [200] [TARGET GL] [nginx]

What is it that I am missing here? I would expect piping uncover to nuclei produces similiar results like manually running httpx with the host name.

Thx!

@HachimanSec you don't need to use -v for using it, it's for debugging purposes, and when used it's outputs data on stderr which will not passed to next tool in the pipeline!

Just remove the -v option and everything should work as expected.

Thx @ehsandeep ! This really did the trick... I guess I got stuck in a rabbit hole.

Sorry, one more question. Is it possible to add additional args to https, save the output to a file and still pipe it nuclei afterwards?
Like this:
echo TARGET | uncover | httpx -ss -fr -srd -sc -title -server -cname ./httpx | nuclei -o ./nuclei.txt

If you need to keep the httpx results and use them in nuclei, but need a record of the results, I think doing the pipe through httpx and outputting to a file first and then running a separate scan after using the txt file from the httpx scan.

echo TARGET | uncover | httpx -ss -fr -srd -sc -title -server -cname ./httpx -o httpxresults.txt
nuclei -l httpxresults.txt -u TARGET -o ./nuclei.txt

you have two txt files then, in case you need them both.
