Library xmpp

A XMPP (Jabber) library, implementing a minimal subset of the protocol enough to do authentication brute-force.

The XML parsing of tags isn't optimal but there's no other easy way (nulls or line-feeds) to match the end of a message. The parse_tag method in the XML class was borrowed from the initial xmpp.nse script written by Vasiliy Kulikov.

The library consist of the following classes:

  • XML<code>			- containing a minimal XML parser written by
    						  		  Vasiliy Kulikov.
    * <code>TagProcessor
    - Contains processing code for common tags
  • XMPP - containing the low-level functions used to
communicate with the Jabber server.
  • Helper - containing the main interface for script
writers

The following sample illustrates how to use the library to authenticate to a XMPP sever:

	local helper = xmpp.Helper:new(host, port, options)
	local status, err = helper:connect()
 status, err = helper:login(user, pass, "DIGEST-MD5")
