NAME

wp wtr

DESCRIPTION

Wapuu the Ripper - a tool to crack user passwords.

SYNOPSIS

`wp wtr [--role=] [--=] [--top=] [--all] [--hide] [--no-guessing]`

Based on [Drop the Ripper](https://www.drupal.org/project/drop_the_ripper) for Drupal.

Users can be filtered via arguments supported by [WP\_User\_Query()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_user_query/prepare_query/).

OPTIONS

\[`--role=`\] Only check users with a certain role.

\[`--=`\] Filter users by one or more arguments of WP\_User\_Query().

\[`--top=`\] Use the top x passwords from the wordlist (default is 25).

\[`--all`\] Use all of the passwords from the wordlist.

\[`--hide`\] Do not show plaintext passwords in output.

\[`--no-guessing`\] Disables built-in password guessing (e.g. username as password).

\[`--wordlist=`\] Path to a custom wordlist (default is openwall's password list).

EXAMPLES

wp wtr

wp wtr --top=100 --role=administrator

wp wtr --all --role\_\_not\_in=subscriber

wp wtr --exclude=1 --hide

wp wrt --wordlist=/tmp/rockyou.txt --include=2,3,4
