Pxytest is a tool for checking a host for open proxies that can be exploited by spammers. It functions via command line interface.
This software tests whether a host is open to potential abuse by examining various types of unsecured proxies. These include http-connect, http-post, socks4, socks5, wingate, telnet and cisco. The manual page has detailed descriptions of these different proxy types.
By detecting these vulnerabilities, Pxytest helps protect your system from being used as a pawn in spamming campaigns. Its sister utility, the rlytest open relay tester, is also worth checking out if you find Pxytest helpful. Overall, if you are concerned about spam or proxy security, Pxytest is definitely a valuable tool for your arsenal.
