webscanner - A command line web content scanner that searches web servers for default and potentially vulnerable web pages.
Description:Web Scanner is a Perl or Java based command line tool to scan web server for known web pages to look for potentialy vulnerable web content. The scan options allow users to scan both HTTP and HTTPS web server on their default ports (80 and 443, only). Also Web scanner can return the size (-z) of the response from the GET command. This can allow users to determine if a webpage is there even when the web server administrator uses defined pages for 404 found pages.
