CMS Outdated. WordPress Version
4.2.9
Version does not appear to be latest 4.5.3 - update now.

WordPress Plugins
The following plugins were detected by reading the HTML source of the WordPress sites front page.

tablepress 1.6   latest release (1.7) Update required
https://tablepress.org/
bbpress 2.5.3   latest release (2.5.10) Update required
https://bbpress.org
wp-attachments 4.1   latest release (4.3.4) Update required
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-attachments
wp-excel-cms   latest release (1.0.5)
http://webteilchen.de
Plugins are a source of many security vulnerabilities within WordPress installations, always keep them updated to the latest version available and check the developers plugin page for information about security related updates and fixes.

There are likely more plugins installed than those listed here as the detection method used here is passive.

Warning Directory Indexing Enabled
In the test we attempted to list the directory contents of the uploads and plugins folders to determine if Directory Indexing is enabled. This is an information leakage vulnerability that can reveal sensitive information regarding your site configuration or content.

/wp-content/uploads/ enabled
/wp-content/plugins/ disabled
Directory indexing was tested on the /wp-content/uploads/ and /wp-content/plugins/ directores. Note that other directories may have this web server feature enabled, so ensure you check other folders in your installation. It is good practice to ensure directory indexing is disabled for your full WordPress installation either through the web server configuration or .htaccess.
