default NSE scripts) which use the 3rd party dns-oarc.net to test
the source port and transaction ID randomness of a discovered DNS
server (assuming it allows recursion at all). These scripts were
contributed by Brandon Enright.
* Merge the "backdoor" category into "malware"
* Add "auth" for authentication credential determination
* Rename "vulnerability" to "vuln"
* Place 12 scripts into their correct categories
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
and reports the listening services and port information (like
rpcinfo -p does). The script was written by Sven Klemm. Fyodor
then enhanced the RPC number list with all of the entries from
nmap-rpc.
