How about an "all-safe" option - leaving all as, well, all? -- (J)On Sep 13, 2009, at 7:30 PM, Patrick Donnelly <batrick () batbytes com> wrote:

I think, however, that the script would be better categorised as"exploit" rather than "dos" to complement the "vuln" category. I don't think it makes sense to start adding categories for each type of exploitin the same way that we don't have a category for each type of vulnerability. Having said that, there isn't a large number ofvulnerability categories/exploit types and there might be some advantage to adding these categories to scripts - you could then say "exploit andnot dos" or "vuln and not sqli" for example.I like 'exploit'. We can keep 'dos' as well; I don't see a problem with unofficial categories (which may become official in the future with increased use). When I use the 'all' category I want to use a lot of scripts but certainly don't want any of them to break the box I'm scanning. The exploit category (if broad enough) would be useful so I can use 'all and not exploit' instead. We could apply the exploit category to scripts like http-passwd.nse (which recently pissed off some network admins for me). Perhaps the exploit category would be a superset of 'vuln' and 'intrusive'. -- -Patrick Donnelly "Let all men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows." - Benjamin Franklin _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
