My question is that how Arachni will update its plugins and list of vulnerabilities inorder to check against the latest vulnerabilities. Does it has checks dynamically or it is hard coded defined.</p></div>maqsoodtag:support.arachni-scanner.com,2012-07-01:Comment/426964422017-06-04T10:55:46Z2017-06-04T10:55:46ZHow arachni updates its plugin and list of vulnerabilities<div><p>Arachni doesn't test for known vulnerabilities on specific products, it performs blackbox testing, so checks or plugins aren't being added frequently enough to warrant an update mechanism for those.</p>
<p>However, the project itself could use an update mechanism for bugfixes and release updates, but I haven't gotten around to implementing that yet.</p>
<p>I'm afraid that you'll need to manually download new releases as they become available.</p></div>Tasos Laskostag:support.arachni-scanner.com,2012-07-01:Comment/426964422017-06-07T02:12:22Z2017-06-07T02:12:23ZHow arachni updates its plugin and list of vulnerabilities<div><p>Dear Tasos Laskos,</p>
<p>How can I add additional list of vulnerabilities in arachni, I mean whether<br>
it is plugin or any other area where I have to make changes or add<br>
additional modules.</p>
