wapiti v2.2.1 - Web application vulnerability scanner & security auditor

Wapiti is a vulnerability scanner for web applications. It currently search vulnerabilities like XSS, SQL and XPath injections, file inclusions, command execution, LDAP injections, CRLF injections... It uses the Python programming language.
  • Wapiti allows you to audit the security of your web applications.
  • It performs "black-box" scans, i.e. it does not study the source code of the application but it will scan the webpages of the deployed webapp, looking for scripts and forms where it can inject data.
  • Once it gets this list, Wapiti acts like a fuzzer, injecting payloads to see if a script is vulnerable.
Wapiti can detect the following vulnerabilities:
  • File Handling Errors (Local and remote include/require, fopen, readfile...)
  • Database Injections (PHP/JSP/ASP SQL Injections and XPath Injections)
  • XSS (Cross Site Scripting) Injection
  • LDAP Injection
  • Command Execution detection (eval(), system(), passtru()...)
  • CRLF Injection (HTTP Response Splitting, session fixation...)
Wapiti is able to differentiate punctual and permanent XSS vulnerabilities.
Wapiti prints a warning every time it founds a script allowing HTTP uploads.
A warning is also issued when a HTTP 500 code is returned (useful for ASP/IIS)
Wapiti does not rely on a vulnerability database like Nikto do, although it integrates its database as a type of attack since the version 2.2.1 

Wapiti aims to discover unknown vulnerabilities in web applications.
It does not provide a GUI for the moment and you must use it from a terminal.
Wapiti is able to create complete reports that include all the found vulnerabilities and related information in order to help to fix them. Take a look at the README file.

--auth
Set credentials for HTTP authentication
Doesn't work with Python 2.4

-r
--remove
Remove a parameter from URLs

-n
--nice
Define a limit of urls to read with the same pattern
Use this option to prevent endless loops
Must be greater than 0

-m
--module
Set the modules and HTTP methods to use for attacks.
Example: -m "-all,xss:get,exec:post"

-u
