VScan is a vulnerability scanner tool is using nmap and nse scripts to find vulnerabilities. This tool puts an additional value into vulnerability scanning with nmap.
It uses NSE scripts which can add flexibility in terms of vulnerability detection and exploitation. Below there are some of the features that NSE scripts provide
This tool uses the path /usr/share/nmap/scripts/ where the nse scripts are located in kali linux
The tool performs the following
If the tool finds a vulnerabilty in a certain protocol (e.g http) it keeps the output into a log file which is created and saved in the following location /home/vulnerabilities_enumeration/http_vulnerabilities/http_vulnerabilities/http_vulnerabilities.txt In this example the folders have been created using the protocol prefix which in the current occasion is the http protocol.
