MacNikto, a free AppleScript GUI shell script wrapper built in Apple’s Xcode and Interface Builder. It provides a subset of the features available in Nikto, bundled into this installer package.

MacNikto features are :

  • Automatic scanning configuration based on server identification
  • Full scanning override, useful for when a server masquerades as another make in order to deflect certain scan attempts
  • Inline reporting and printing
  • Automatic export and reader launch of reports in HTML, CSV and TXT formats
  • Nikto database update check
  • Port range setting
  • Full Help documentation
  • Nikto 1.36/1.37 installer included.

With some hacks (i’ll try this weekend), you could use Nikto 2.02 with this release.

Note that Nikto 2.02 works perfectly on OSX based systems.
