vulnerability-scanner

To scan a server for security vulnerabilities, this tool probes network targets using nmap and curl to detect open ports, outdated services, and misconfigurations. It compiles the findings into a categorized report with severity levels and remediation advice.

Yes, you can check network targets for known CVEs and outdated services. The scanner identifies active services during the network probe and searches for associated known vulnerabilities, providing remediation suggestions in the final security report.

Yes, you need nmap and curl installed to run a vulnerability scan. The scanner requires nmap for network probing to detect open ports and curl to perform HTTP checks for common misconfigurations on web servers.

The best way to identify common misconfigurations on a web server is to run a vulnerability scan. This process uses curl for HTTP checks and nmap for network probing, categorizing detected security weaknesses and providing actionable remediation advice.

Yes, the vulnerability scanner provides remediation advice for detected security weaknesses. After probing for open ports and CVEs, it compiles findings into a categorized security report that includes severity levels and specific suggestions to improve defenses.
