This study introduces vulscan, a lightweight, browser-based application aimed at conducting basic security and configuration checks on websites. in today’s digitally connected world, early-stage evaluation of web applications is essential to detect security flaws and misconfigurations. built with the flask framework in python, vulscan allows users to input a website url through an intuitive web interface, triggering backend analysis. the system examines http responses to evaluate the presence of critical security headers, checks for missing or improperly configured elements, and identifies web forms with insecure submission paths. it also includes ssl/tls certificate validation to assess the website’s encryption practices. the findings are compiled into a clear and organized report, highlighting server details, absent headers, form vulnerabilities, and certificate status—all viewable in the interface. vulscan provides a practical and efficient method for developers and system administrators to carry out initial security reviews of web assets.
