Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Rajan, the maker of wp-scan.org.
A few months ago a client called me at midnight — their WooCommerce store had been flagged by Google as dangerous. Traffic dropped 80% overnight. I spent 6 hours manually grepping through 3,000 PHP files to find the infection: a base64_decode(eval()) shell hidden inside an old payment plugin for 14 months.
I built wp-scan.org that weekend.
**How it works:**
→ Upload your WordPress theme or plugin as a ZIP
→ We scan every PHP, JS, and HTML file against 40+ malware signatures
→ You get a severity-ranked report in under 10 seconds
**What it finds:**
• Backdoors & remote code execution shells
• SQL injection vulnerabilities
• Cross-site scripting (XSS)
• Obfuscated malware (eval/base64 chains)
• Hardcoded credentials
• Remote file inclusion
**Free tier is real** — 2 scans/month, no credit card, no account required.
I'd love to hear what you think. Drop a comment or email me at [email protected] — I read everything.
