Scanner-and-Patcher is an automated web vulnerability scanner and patch recommendation tool designed to detect and classify security flaws in web applications.
A Web Vulnerability Scanner and Patcher
This tool is primarily used by web security professionals and developers to automatically scan web applications for common vulnerabilities such as XSS, SQL injection, and CSRF, and to receive patch recommendations. It is ideal for security audits, penetration testing, and continuous security monitoring of web applications.
The tool requires an active internet connection to perform scans and uses multiple third-party tools internally, so ensure those dependencies are installed and accessible. It is recommended to run scans with appropriate permissions and legal authorization to avoid unauthorized testing. The tool classifies vulnerabilities with severity levels to help prioritize remediation efforts.
