Exploits a directory traversal vulnerability existing in Majordomo2 to retrieve remote files. (CVE-2011-0049).

Attempts to bypass password protected resources (HTTP 401 status) by performing HTTP verb tampering. If an array of paths to check is not set, it will crawl the web server and perform the check against any password protected resource that it finds.

Checks if a web server is vulnerable to directory traversal by attempting to retrieve /etc/passwd or \boot.ini.

Crawls a web server and attempts to find PHP files vulnerable to reflected cross site scripting via the variable $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].

Tests a web server for vulnerability to the Slowloris DoS attack without actually launching a DoS attack.

Spiders an HTTP server looking for URLs containing queries vulnerable to an SQL injection attack. It also extracts forms from found websites and tries to identify fields that are vulnerable.

Exploits a directory traversal vulnerability existing in several TP-Link wireless routers. Attackers may exploit this vulnerability to read any of the configuration and password files remotely and without authentication.

Sends an HTTP TRACE request and shows if the method TRACE is enabled. If debug is enabled, it returns the header fields that were modified in the response.

Checks for a path-traversal vulnerability in VMWare ESX, ESXi, and Server (CVE-2009-3733).

Tests whether a JBoss target is vulnerable to jmx console authentication bypass (CVE-2010-0738).

Executes a directory traversal attack against a ColdFusion server and tries to grab the password hash for the administrator user. It then uses the salt value (hidden in the web page) to create the SHA1 HMAC hash that the web server needs for authentication as admin. You can pass this value to the ColdFusion server as the admin without cracking the password hash.

Detects a denial of service vulnerability in the way the Apache web server handles requests for multiple overlapping/simple ranges of a page.

Tests for the CVE-2011-3368 (Reverse Proxy Bypass) vulnerability in Apache HTTP server's reverse proxy mode. The script will run 3 tests: o the loopback test, with 3 payloads to handle different rewrite rules o the internal hosts test. According to Contextis, we expect a delay before a server error. o The external website test. This does not mean that you can reach a LAN ip, but this is a relevant issue anyway.

Detects PHP-CGI installations that are vulnerable to CVE-2012-1823, This critical vulnerability allows attackers to retrieve source code and execute code remotely.

Enumerates usernames in Wordpress blog/CMS installations by exploiting an information disclosure vulnerability existing in versions 2.6, 3.1, 3.1.1, 3.1.3 and 3.2-beta2 and possibly others.
