Honour the user supplied settings
Abort a host on connection error
Check a 200 response for some appropriate data
Let datastore validation handle things like options being present
Be more verbose if needed
Use the HTTPClient more appropriately
Anemone::Page is not a Rex HTTP request/response, and uses the
:cookies method to return an array of cookies.
This resolves the method naming error, though it does break with
Rex naming convention since Anemone still uses a lot non-Rex
methods for working with pages/traffic.
Instead of editing the datastore['PATH'], use normalize_uri.
Since the purpose of this module is quite fuzz-like, I didn't want to
apply the normalize_uri to the whole uri -- the original code merely
applied to datastore['PATH'] (which seems like it should be
datastore['URI'] really) and then added on a bunch of other stuff to
test for traversals.
If the user wants to use downcased or mixed case HTTP methods, heck,
more power to them. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. No other HTTP
module makes this call.
Looks like copypasta artifacts. DBUSER and DBPASS aren't ever set as
options in the module, and the module doesn't include MC's
Exploit::ORACLE mixin. It's also from four years ago and doesn't
report_auth or anything useful like that, but that's out of scope for
this branch.
This module was written in an era where the defaults for bruteforcing
included a lot of lock-inducing behavior, thus, it was quite serious
about setting datastore options directly. Also, there was apparently a
bug in USER_AS_PASS that this module attempted to avoid by setting the
datastore directly, rather than fixing the bug directly. As far as I
know, this bug has been long since resolved.
