Hi David ,
The script that you mentioned does pretty much what I had planned. There
are websites like defaultpassword.com or phenoelit.org which have huge
collections of default passwords , I'm gonna try to scrape them ( python ,
scrapy ) and add them to the http-default-accounts-fingerprints.lua file.
What do you think ?

There are tons of devices like routers, printers and webcams with

write a script which ( depending on  results from the scan ) checks for
default
passwords , it could be useful.

Pro - would take less time than bruteforce

Con - might be pretty big

( alternatively the script could look for the default passwords from a
website)

Comments ?

Hi, what you describe sounds like the existing http-default-accounts
script:
https://nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts/http-default-accounts.html

https://svn.nmap.org/nmap/nselib/data/http-default-accounts-fingerprints.lua
A good project would be to increase the coverage of the script; i.e., to
add a lot of new entries to http-default-accounts-fingerprints.lua. I
don't get what you mean by "scrape default passwords from websites,"
though. What's your plan for building a database of default credentials?
