Hi folks, Wordpress 3.5 has it's XML-RPC Interface enabled by default. See here for more information: http://www.ethicalhack3r.co.uk/security/introduction-to-the-wordpress-xml-rpc-api/ http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_3.5#Settings I read through the article and took a look at the Pinback API since it is public available on many Wordpress installations. The cool thing is: you can do a port scan using the Pingback API You can even scan the server itself or discover some hosts on the internal Network this server is on. So i wrote this little Ruby Script to utilize this "feature": https://github.com/FireFart/WordpressPingbackPortScanner You can even use multiple Wordpress XML-RPC Interfaces to scan a single host so this can be some kind of distributed port scanning.
