VHostScan is a Python-based virtual host scanner that discovers hidden vhosts on a web server using wordlists, reverse lookups, and catch-all/wildcard detection. It supports pivoting through SSH/nc, WAF-bypass headers, and HTTP/HTTPS scanning.
Use cases
- discover hidden virtual hosts on a web server
- find vhosts behind a catch-all wildcard response
- enumerate subdomains via reverse lookups during a pentest
- scan for virtual hosts through an SSH pivot
- bypass WAFs while scanning vhosts
- prepare for OSCP or HackTheBox recon
When to choose
- you need vhost discovery that handles catch-all and dynamic default pages
- you want a lightweight Python CLI for web app recon
- you're pivoting through ssh/nc and need correct Host headers
When to avoid
- you need full subdomain enumeration with DNS brute-forcing across nameservers
- you want a GUI or automated web vulnerability scanner
- the target is not a web server with virtual hosting
