Webscan Light Pentest

Now PRO on development

Updates:

• Code Security Scan (code) — point at a folder: supply-chain/npm-poisoning heuristics (typosquats, install scripts, non-registry deps, missing integrity), lightweight SAST, IaC/config checks, and secrets — one report.

• UI upload flow — code/secrets/deps now scan an uploaded project .zip in a deleted-after sandbox (Zip-Slip + zip-bomb guards); server disk never read.

• robots.txt-aware crawling (--respect-robots) + CSV export (-f csv).

• Web hardening — security response headers + /robots.txtThis file is outside this session’s folders, so it can’t be opened here..

• Product-shot banner (real UI screenshots).

If you need help securing your app, I’d be happy to help. Feel free to reach out!

Will soon release a paid version of this app.

Updates:
Small improvements added to webscan-light

• Security response headers — new SecurityHeadersMiddleware sets X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff, X-Frame-Options: DENY, Referrer-Policy: no-referrer, Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy, and a minimal Permissions-Policy on every web-UI response. A scanner now holds itself to the standards it reports on.

• /robots.txtThis session isn’t running, so its files can’t be opened. Send a message to start it again. — disallows indexing so an accidentally-exposed self-hosted instance won't be crawled; reachable without auth/consent.

• Tests — added coverage for both; 98 tests pass, ruff clean, bandit 0 issues.

Practical use cases for Webscan Light Pentest

• Small businesses checking their own websites for common security issues

• Developers testing apps before deployment

• Students learning practical web security in a controlled environment

• Freelancers auditing client websites with permission

• Internal IT teams reviewing company-owned websites and APIs

• Self-hosters checking VPS, homelab, and exposed services

• Monitoring subdomains, ports, certificates, and attack-surface changes

• Checking dependencies for known vulnerabilities

• Generating pentest-style reports for remediation and documentation

Built for defenders, developers, learners, and small teams that want a free, self-hosted security toolkit.

Authorized use only — scan systems you own or have explicit permission to test.

Ethical Use

webscan-light is built for defenders and learners — to find and fix weaknesses, not to break in.

• Get permission first. Only scan systems you own or have explicit written authorization to test. Unauthorized scanning is illegal in many places.

• Do no harm. Active checks send real payloads; run them only on non-production or approved targets. Keep scans gentle.

• Disclose responsibly. If you find a vulnerability that isn't yours, report it privately to the owner — don't exploit or publish it.

• Learn, don't weaponize. Findings are for understanding and remediation.
  

You are responsible for how you use this tool. Use it to make the web safer.

• Website vulnerability scan — 40+ named checks producing PentestTools-style reports (severity, EPSS, CVE, remediation)

• 24 tools: SSL/TLS, port & network scan, subdomain/vhost finder, URL fuzzer, web recon, API scanner, Google dorks, subdomain takeover, cloud & secrets, dependency (OSV) scan, typosquat, ASM

• Injection suite (authorized): XSS, SQLi, SSTI, command injection, LFI, stored XSS — detect + safe PoC only

• JS-rendered crawling via headless Chromium for SPA-aware discovery

• Authenticated scanning — cookie, header, or form login

• Attack Surface Monitor with host screenshots and change alerts

• Reports — minimalist HTML/PDF with SVG gauges, grades, OWASP/PCI/ASVS mapping; JSON + SARIF export

• Server UI + CLI — run scans, browse history, schedule recurring monitors, webhook/email alerts

• Safety — authorization gating, consent, SSRF/scope guard, rate limiting, caching

• Self-hosted — SQLite persistence, Docker image, AGPL-3.0, stdlib-first Python
