WPScan

WPScan is a free, for non-commercial use, black box WordPress security scanner written for security professionals and blog maintainers to test the security of their sites.

After our initial port scan, we might do more scans depending on what we find. In order to be as effective as possible, and to gather as much information as possible, pentesters are often running multiple scans simultaneously on a target. There are hundreds of tools out there for every service imaginable. Some of the tools worth mentioning are wpscan (https://wpscan.com/wordpress-security-scanner) for Wordpress sites or sqlmap (https://sqlmap.org/) for automatic SQL injection.
