Hello,
1) QuickHow to measure this? ...2) Generally UsefulI reckon this is pretty subjective ...3) Not too intrusiveHow to measure this? ...
Any objective measure for these characteristics will be ridiculous in 20% of the cases. I suggest following the current process and decide for each script wether we want it in default or not based on common sense and discussion.
4) Not in "version" category since those are run with -sVAgreed. But wouldn't it be nice to run some of these version scripts without version scanning.
No. Version scripts were built as an extension to -sV. If the version category was specified on the command line but -sV was not given, the category is removed again. The reason is that version scripts put their output in the version column of the Nmap output table.
* mswindowsShell - "backdoor"My vote is to ditch it too.
I vote for ditching too. I wrote the script way back in 2006 along with some other obscure scripts (kibuv, xampp, ircZombie). I ported these scripts from the Nessus database to get a feeling of how expressive NSE is and to find out wether it is comparable in expressiveness with NASL. cheers, Diman _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
