SPIPScan

SPIP (CMS) Scanner for penetration testing purpose written in Python, and released under MIT License.

This tool has been designed to perform detection of SPIP installs during penetration testing. Currently, the tool detects the version of the SPIP install and tries to detect if the platform uses some of the top 30 plugins (listed on their website)

  • Python
  • Beautiful Soup 4

Example on Ubuntu:

root@kitploit:~
$ sudo apt-get install python python-bs4 python3-bs4
