exploiting a wide range of WordPress websites. \n\n### Our tool coverage \n* Identifying WordPress websites by several methods.\n* Identifying WordPress versions by several methods\n* Enumerating WordPress users by several methods.\n* Detect \u0026 exploit weaknesses in specific versions.\n\n### Requirements\n* Python3 (tested on 3.7).\n* Python modules as specified on requirements.txt.\n\n###

Usage\n```bash\npython cliy.py [COMMAND] [ARGS]\n```\n\n##### Possible commands - \n* detect - Detect if URL/IP is a WordPress site and try to get the WordPress system version. Args: \n    * --url / -u: The URL/IP to test (for example: http://example.com).\n    * --timeout / -to: Maximum timeout for each HTTP request, in msecs and only integer (for example 100).\n    * --proxy / -p: Proxy (URL/IP) to use (for example: 192.192.192.192).\n* enumerate - Try to enumerate user names of WordPress System. Args:\n    * --url / -u: The URL/IP to test (for example: http://example.com).\n    * --proxy / -p: Proxy (URL/IP) to use (for example: 192.192.192.192).\n    * minid: The id to start enumerate from (for example 1, will try enumerate user with id 1 and above).\n    * maxid: The user id to stop enumerate (for example 5, will try enumerate from the minid until id 5).\n* bruteforce - Try to do login Bruteforce and crack passwords with a dictionary attack. Args:\n    * --url / -u: The URL/IP to test (for example: http://example.com)\n    * --proxy / -p: Proxy (URL/IP) to use, (for example: 192.192.192.192). \n    * --usernames / -un: Path to a file containing usernames to enumerates (each username in a separate line).\n    * --passwords / -pass: Path to a file containing passwords to try for each username (each password in a separate line).\n    * --threads, -t: Number of working threads (default is 1, only integer).\n* exploit - Try to exploit WordPress Website and gain control over the admin user. Args:\n    * --url / -u: The URL/IP to test (for example: http://example.com).\n    * --proxy / -p: Proxy (URL/IP) to use (for example: 192.192.192.192).\n    * --type / -ex: The exploite you wish to try, choose from [time-capsule, reset-database, all].\n* readme - prints the readme file.\n\n### Further Attacks\nOf course, you can clone \u0026 implement other exploits. Our interface is generic and supports several exploiting methods.\n\n### Automation\nWP-Exploiter has the potential to be automated in different ways. We are going to leave this to you. \nYou can find an example at examples/run.py.\n\n### Note\n* We do not claim the description or the purpose of this tool to be 100% accurate.
