holehe is a Python-based OSINT utility designed to determine whether a specific email address is registered across a wide range of online services. The tool works by leveraging password-reset mechanisms and other public account-existence checks to infer whether an email is associated with accounts on major platforms. It supports more than a hundred websites and is commonly used during reconnaissance, digital investigations, and account exposure assessments. holehe is designed to operate quickly and quietly, emphasizing efficiency and minimal footprint during enumeration tasks. ...

...Instead of implementing its own security scanners, the framework acts as a wrapper and orchestrator that helps users discover, install, and execute tools from various GitHub repositories. Its modular architecture organizes tools into categories such as information gathering, networking, web application security, and password testing. This structure allows users to quickly navigate through different security tasks while maintaining a consistent interface. fsociety can automatically clone and manage required tools, reducing the manual effort typically needed to set up a penetration testing toolkit. fsociety is distributed as a Python package.

...The project was created as a proof-of-concept during research into new OSINT methodologies for extracting personal information from publicly accessible sources and account recovery mechanisms. The tool works by automating interactions with password reset processes on various online services, which may reveal masked phone number digits associated with an account. By combining these partial digits with other publicly available information, the tool attempts to reconstruct or identify the full phone number. The application includes several functions that support different phases of this process, such as scraping phone number fragments, generating possible numbers based on national numbering plans, and testing potential numbers against service recovery mechanisms.
