Webskan: Vulnerability Scanner for Websites

Webskan is a vulnerability scanner for websites. It scans for common vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, insecure configurations, and more. Webskan is open-source, free to use, and provides automated scanning to identify security issues.

What is Webskan?

Webskan is an open-source web application security scanner used to identify vulnerabilities in websites and web apps. It can crawl websites and scan for issues like:

• SQL injection
• Cross-site scripting (XSS)
• Insecure HTTP methods
• Remote file inclusion
• Local file inclusion
• Command injection
• Insecure configurations
• Outdated software with known vulnerabilities

Webskan works by crawling all pages of a website and scanning each page for patterns indicating vulnerabilities. It has an extensive database of security checks and can identify hundreds of vulnerabilities types. The scanning is automated, allowing large websites to be thoroughly scanned quickly with no manual effort.

Once the scan is complete, Webskan generates a detailed report showing each vulnerability found, its risk level, location on the website, and steps to remediate it. The reports allow security engineers and developers to efficiently identify and patch vulnerabilities.

As an open source tool, Webskan is free to download and use. It runs on Linux, MacOS, and Windows. Webskan allows companies and security researchers to automate web vulnerability scanning on their own infrastructure before attackers find and exploit these security flaws.
