Summary

This plugin uses nikto to find weak CGI scripts and other known issues regarding web server security. It starts with the option - Tuning x016bc and writes only OSVDB and CVE issues to the KB. Note: The plugin needs the 'nikto' or 'nikto.pl' binary found within the PATH of the user running the scanner and needs to be executable for this user. The existence of this binary is checked and reported separately within 'Availability of scanner helper tools' (OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.810000).
