From sources:

Prerequisites: Git

git clone https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan-v3

cd wpscan

bundle install && rake install

Docker

Pull the repo with docker pull wpscanteam/wpscan-v3

Usage

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

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

  • ~/.wpscan/cli_options.json
  • ~/.wpscan/cli_options.yml
  • pwd/.wpscan/cli_options.json
  • pwd/.wpscan/cli_options.yml

If those files exist, options from them will be loaded and overridden if found twice.

e.g:

~/.wpscan/cli_options.yml:

proxy: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080'
verbose: true

pwd/.wpscan/cli_options.yml:

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
