Unable to update database 403 #895

ruby wpscan.rb --update [i] Updating the Database ...

[!] Unable to get https://wpvulndb.com/data/local_vulnerable_files.xml.sha512 (status: 403)

curl version 7.46.0

firefart commented 8 years ago

We are currently having connectivity issues due to the ongoing Linode DDoS. Once the DoS is over all should work as expected. If you are on a fresh install without data files you can also extract the data.zip.

erwanlr commented 8 years ago

Use ruby wpscan.rb --update --random-agent as a workaround :)

firefart commented 8 years ago

Why should that work if the server is not reachable?

erwanlr commented 8 years ago

The issue here is a 403, so the server is reachable but the WAF blocks the request due to the default user-agent used :x

firefart commented 8 years ago

Another reason not to use them :D

firefart commented 8 years ago

Ok i reopened this one because this is an issue affecting all users
