# INSTALL

## Prerequisites

- (Optional but highly recommended: [RVM](https://rvm.io/rvm/install))
- Ruby >= 2.3 - Recommended: latest
  - Ruby 2.5.0 to 2.5.3 can cause an 'undefined symbol: rmpd_util_str_to_d' error in some systems, see [#1283](https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan/issues/1283)
- Curl >= 7.21  - Recommended: latest
  - The 7.29 has a segfault
- RubyGems      - Recommended: latest
- Nokogiri might require packages to be installed via your package manager depending on your OS, see https://nokogiri.org/tutorials/installing_nokogiri.html

### From RubyGems (Recommended)

```shell
gem install wpscan
```

On MacOSX, if a ```Gem::FilePermissionError``` is raised due to the Apple's System Integrity Protection (SIP), either install RVM and install wpscan again, or run ```sudo gem install -n /usr/local/bin wpscan``` (see [#1286](https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan/issues/1286))

### From sources (NOT Recommended)

Prerequisites: Git

```shell
git clone https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan

cd wpscan/

bundle install && rake install
```

# Updating

You can update the local database by using ```wpscan --update```

Updating WPScan itself is either done via ```gem update wpscan``` or the packages manager (this is quite important for distributions such as in Kali Linux: ```apt-get update && apt-get upgrade```) depending how WPScan was (pre)installed

# Docker

Pull the repo with ```docker pull wpscanteam/wpscan```

Enumerating usernames

```shell
docker run -it --rm wpscanteam/wpscan --url https://target.tld/ --enumerate u
```

Enumerating a range of usernames

```shell
docker run -it --rm wpscanteam/wpscan --url https://target.tld/ --enumerate u1-100
```

** replace u1-100 with a range of your choice.

# Usage

```wpscan --url blog.tld``` This will scan the blog using default options with a good compromise between speed and accuracy. For example, the plugins will be checked passively but their version with a mixed detection mode (passively + aggressively). Potential config backup files will also be checked, along with other interesting findings.

If a more stealthy approach is required, then ```wpscan --stealthy --url blog.tld``` can be used.
As a result, when using the ```--enumerate``` option, don't forget to set the ```--plugins-detection``` accordingly, as its default is 'passive'.

For more options, open a terminal and type ```wpscan --help``` (if you built wpscan from the source, you should type the command outside of the git repo)

The DB is located at ~/.wpscan/db

## Vulnerability Database

The WPScan CLI tool uses the [WPVulnDB API](https://wpvulndb.com/api) to retrieve WordPress vulnerability data in real time. For WPScan to retrieve the vulnerability data an API token must be supplied via the `--api-token` option, or via a configuration file, as discussed below. An API token can be obtained by registering an account on [WPVulnDB](https://wpvulndb.com/users/sign_up). Up to 50 API requests per day are given free of charge to registered users. Once the 50 API requests are exhausted, WPScan will continue to work as normal but without any vulnerability data. Users can upgrade to paid API usage to increase their API limits within their user profile on [WPVulnDB](https://wpvulndb.com/).

## Load CLI options from file/s

WPScan can load all options (including the --url) from configuration files, the following locations are checked (order: first to last):

- ~/.wpscan/scan.json
- ~/.wpscan/scan.yml
- pwd/.wpscan/scan.json
- pwd/.wpscan/scan.yml

If those files exist, options from the `cli_options` key will be loaded and overridden if found twice.

e.g:

~/.wpscan/scan.yml:

```yml
cli_options:
  proxy: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080'
  verbose: true
```

pwd/.wpscan/scan.yml:

```yml
cli_options:
  proxy: 'socks5://127.0.0.1:9090'
  url: 'http://target.tld'
```

Running ```wpscan``` in the current directory (pwd), is the same as ```wpscan -v --proxy socks5://127.0.0.1:9090 --url http://target.tld```

## Save API Token in a file

The feature mentioned above is useful to keep the API Token in a config file and not have to supply it via the CLI each time. To do so, create the ~/.wpscan/scan.yml file containing the below:

```yml
cli_options:
  api_token: YOUR_API_TOKEN
```

## Load API Token From ENV (since v3.7.10)

The API Token will be automatically loaded from the ENV variable `WPSCAN_API_TOKEN` if present. If the `--api-token` CLI option is also provided, the value from the CLI will be used.


## Enumerating usernames

```shell
wpscan --url https://target.tld/ --enumerate u
```

Enumerating a range of usernames

```shell
wpscan --url https://target.tld/ --enumerate u1-100
```

** replace u1-100 with a range of your choice.
