Hi, There is one question that tickles me from long time ago. If you check on Shadow Security Scanner and Retina Scanner from Eeye, they resemble each other. Anyone knows if they are using a common GUI, or either 'copying' the others ? I found very little documentation on the official website(russian) for SSS.

It's exploit DB is regularly updated with the latest and greatest. It not only checks to see if the exploit exists, it tests the exploit and then reports back it's findings. - You can customize your scans to include or exclude what filters/exploits you want to test on. - You can run the test against a single IP or a range. - Reports are delivered in HTML format but can be exported to a number of other formats Do a search at Google for it.

There are loads of tools out there to identify vulnerabilites, I for one am using Retina 4.9. This is good in that it tell you exactly how to fix the problem. What I would like to know is if there are any tools out there that will find the vulnerabilitites and test them, i.e. Try to exploit them. For example, running the vulnerability scanner against a particular host list the following as a vulnerability; Web Servers: TCP:80 - IIS HTR ISAPI CHUNKING BUFFER OVERFLOW DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability in IIS involving the processing of chunked HTTP data and it's use by the HTR ISAPI, can be exploited by an attacker to remotely execute the code of his choice RISK LEVEL: High HOW TO FIX: Microsoft has released a hotfix to eliminate this vulnerability RELATED LINKS: Microsoft Security Bulletin eEye Advisory CVE: CAN-2002-0364 What I would like to know is, if there is a tool that could demonstrate this vulnerability by exploting it. Of course this would be done in a test environment only, but it is to demonstrate the exploit to a client who thinks these things are rarely exploited.
