Hey, Hacker welcomes to my write-up. today we exploit the “xmlrpc.php” vulnerability
let’s get started,
What is XML-RPC?
XML-RPC on WordPress is actually an API or “application program interface“. It gives developers who make mobile apps, desktop apps, and other services the ability to talk to your WordPress site. The XML-RPC API that WordPress provides gives developers a way to write applications (for you) that can do many of the things that you can do when logged into WordPress via the web interface. These include:
Impact :
If XML-RPC is enabled on your site, a hacker could potentially mount a DDoS attack on your site by exploiting xmlrpc.php to send vast numbers of pingbacks to your site in a short time. This could overload your server and put your site out of action.
Open your Firefox browser and paste your target like “example.com” After URL add “xmlrpc.ph
Then Open My burp suite Intercept the request and Send it To request Repeater Then I Change the request GET to POST or add payload in a request.
