Wordpress Hack : Find all the plugins being used on a WP blog
Plugins enhance the functionality of Wordpress. Plugins are very important for any blogger who wishes to make his/her blog a success. Its the same reason why no blogger would like to reveal what all plugins he/she uses.
Here’s a simple wordpress hack through which you can find ALL the plugins being used on a wordpress blog. It wont work on all but will work for most.
-
Identify your victim. Let’s say http://www.example.com
-
In the address bar type the following : http://www.example.com/wp-content/plugins
You should get the list of plugins being used as a directory structure!
The workaround this is to disable directory viewing in their hosting control panels or by adding the following line to the .htaccess file :
Options –Indexes
This returns a 403 error to the user.
