Hello Peter,

This is my first attempt at lua scripting so let me know if there are any glaring issues. The script performs three tests. 1. Find version of WordPress, first it will check the generator tag for the version, if this fails it will attempt to find the version in /readme.html a default file in all WordPress builds. 2. Find the theme that is currently being used. This can be found by matching the path /wp-content/theme/ in the source of the page. 3. Find plugins in use by parsing the page source and matching the path /wp-content/plugins/. This will not find plugins, but is a non-intrusive way to gather information. The general idea is to have a non-intrusive way to survey WordPress installations.
Thanks for contributing. We have http-devframework for finding out the technology behind the target website. I believe it's better if you extend the WordPress entry in nselib/data/http-devframework-fingerprints.lua and make it return more information (theme & plugins) about the installation. Let me know if you need any help, -- George Chatzisofroniou _______________________________________________ Sent through the dev mailing list http://nmap.org/mailman/listinfo/dev Archived at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/
