Plugin Description
1.1 is a beta.
Tools such as wp-scan allow security professionals and malicous “hackers” to scan your blog for security holes. It detects the version of Wordpress, and version of all your plugins and cross-checks with a vulnerability database to see if there are any security threats with those versions. The users of wp-scan can then exploit any vulnerabilities found to gain unauthorized access to your Wordpress blog.
Anti-wpscan prevents this tool from obtaining these version numbers, greatly increasing security and prevent wp-scan bots from getting your version numbers.
Note. All un-even minor version numbers are considered beta. 1.1 is a beta. 1.2 would be production ready.
Features:
- Block Wordpress version detection.
- Block passive Wordpress version detection (not just the version in your meta tags).
- Block plugin version detection.
- Block all plugin change_log files.
- Block directory browsing for improperly setup web hosting.
- Block access to css files from clients without a referring url.
- Block access to important files in wp-include.
- Strip all comments from final putput. Prevents plugins from putting comments in your blog with version information.
Requirements:
- Must be using an updated version of Wordpress.
- Must be using custom permalinks (this generates a .htaccess file which anti-wspcan uses).
