Nmap NSE Scripts
Nmap is one of the most popular tools for enumeration.
One very powerful feature of this tool is the Nmap Scripting Engine,
which, as its name suggests,
introduces the ability to automate various tasks using scripts.
Along with exploit services, the NSE comes with a variety of scripts to enumerate,
brute force, fuzz, and detect.
A complete list of scripts provided by the NSE
can be found under the nmap scripts directory.
Using grep to quickly search for the word “exploits” in the NSE scripts
returns a number of results.
We can display the information of specific NSE scripts by running nmap
with the --script-help option followed by the script filename.
This provides information about the vulnerability
and external information resources.
