In addition to fitting better (brute library is the verb, creds library
is the noun), this will allow creds.lua to use creds.Account internally
where necessary (see subsequent commits)
Also change old references to string argument "OPEN" into
creds.State.VALID.

- Multi-threaded (thanks to nselib/brute.lua)
- Can automatically reduce number of threads if it senses that the
target supports less than what brute.lua wants to use. Without this
feature the script tends to bail out because brute.lua default of 10
threads is too much for a lot of telnet targets. This saves the user
the trouble of finding out how much the target can take before
launching the script.
- Uses connection pooling for sending multiple login attempts across
the same connection. This significantly improves performance.
- Supports password-only logins.
Other changes:
- Fixed support for Windows telnet service.
Added support for Netgear RM356.
- Improved accuracy of target state detection.
Tested on:
- Cisco IOS
- Linux telnetd
- Windows telnet service
- Digital Sprite 2
- Nortel Contivity
- Netgear RM356
- Hummingbird telnetd

- Changed line termination from \r\0 to \r\n.
- Changed response to the telnet server ECHO "will" / "will not" from
outright "do not" to an agreement with whatever the server proposes
to make the script work with some daemons.
- Removed use of receive_lines(), which was causing either time-outs or
unnecessary connection tear-downs due to waiting on a line
termination. This change improved the script success rate and/or
performance (5x in some cases).
- Exposed the connection time-out value as a configurable parameter
(telnet-brute.timeout). It defaults to 5s.
- Improved handling of connection errors, which were occassionally
causing credential combinations to be skipped.
- Updated the logged-in status detection logic to make the script work
with some daemons.
- Avoided overlapping connections to make the script work with daemons
that allow only one connection at a time.
- Replaced a locally defined routine with stdnse.string_or_blank() for
printing out credentials. Changed printing of tested credentials in
the debug output to be consistent with script results.
- Script will now report if it senses password-only authentication.
- Implemented detailed debug messages (e.g. "Sending password") at
debug level 3 (configurable).
- Expanded the script documentation.
socket:connect(host.ip, port.number)
socket:connect(host.ip, port.number, port.protocol)
to this:
socket:connect(host, port)
connect can take host and port tables now, and the default protocol is
taken from the port table if possible.
1) I wrote a function that formats output from scripts in a consistent way. Although we haven't really come to a concensus on how it should look yet, it's easy to change when we do.
2) New script: smb-enum-groups.nse. Enumerate the local groups on a system and their membership.

o Added a convenience top-level BSD makefile redirecting BSD make
to GNU make on BSD systems. This should help prevent bogus
error reports when users run "make" instead of "gmake" on BSD
systems. [Daniel Roethlisberger]

[NSE] The NSE Nsock Library binding no longer relies on garbage collection to
monitor the use of socket "slots". A thread (script) attempting to connect must
first obtain one of a limited number of available socket locks (usually 10 or
--max-parallelism). The binding would use garbage collection of sockets to
determine when a thread has finished using its allocated sockets. This is
unfortunately slow and requires us to constantly run the garbage collector to
cause timely reallocation. I have changed the binding to now regularly inspect
allocated sockets in the nsock_loop function. Available sockets slots are now
immediately reallocated and done with far less execution time.
See [1] for benchmarks and further explanation.

[NSE] Fixed a rare (and usually undetectable) bug that can cause a SEGFAULT.
The NSE nsock library binding may attempt to push values on the stack of
a thread that ended due to an error. It is possible that the internal
Lua stack was completely full and any further pushed values would result
in a segmentation memory violation.
This bug is very hard to reproduce with a SEGFAULT but is usually visible
when Lua assertion checks are turned on. A socket handler routine must be
called AFTER a thread has ended in error.

[NSE] We now propogate a NSE initiated yield on a script through all user
coroutines so that NSE may resume control. Previously, scripts that would yield
in a child coroutine (e.g. a script's child coroutine generated by Lua's
coroutine.create function) would give control back to the script. A script
would yield in this way by making a blocking socket operation. NSE would be
unable to correctly resume child coroutine when the socket operation is
finished processing.
By yielding the chain of coroutines a script has operating, we allow to NSE to
handle the socket operation properly. NSE would then resume the entire chain so
execution may correctly resume at the coroutine which initiated the socket
operation. This restores the "illusion" that a script executes without
interruption.
See [1] for more information, further explanation, and some use cases.

The configure script now allows cross-compiling by assuming that
libpcap is recent enough. Previously it would quit because a test
program could not be run. libpcap will always be recent enough when
the included copy is used. The patch was contributed by Mike
Frysinger.
