as banner-grabbing (get_banner()) and making a quick exchange of data
(exchange()). 16 scripts were updated to use this library. [Kris]
I have *not* been able to test all of these scripts; however, I have
reviewed them and they should all work properly. I would really like
some more testing, though :)
This commit includes scripting.xml documentation.
of scripts chosen from when using -sC (but it's still just another category
and so can be chosen with --script like any other).
On top of updating the docs with information about this new category, I've
also updated sections to emphasize that the "default" category, -sC and -A
are considered intrusive and should not be run against target networks
without permission.
The new list is very similar to the previous "safe,intrusive" list:
Added: finger, ircServerInfo, RealVNC_auth_bypass
Removed: HTTPpasswd
Here are the 21 scripts in this new category:
anonFTP
dns-test-open-recursion
finger
ftpbounce
HTTPAuth
HTTP_open_proxy
ircServerInfo
MSSQLm
MySQLinfo
nbstat
RealVNC_auth_bypass
robots
rpcinfo
showHTMLTitle
showOwner
SMTPcommands
SNMPsysdesr
SSHv1-support
SSLv2-support
UPnP-info
zoneTrans
line, since this can differ from the reverse DNS results. It can be
particularly important when doing HTTP tests against virtual hosts.
The data can be accessed from target->HostName() from Nmap proper
and host.targetname from NSE scripts. The NSE HTTP library now uses
this for the Host header. Thanks to Sven Klemm for adding this
useful feature.
