This plugin bruteforces basic authentication endpoints.
Nine configurable parameters exist:
- users_file
- stop_on_first
- passwd_file
- pass_eq_user
- use_leet_password
- use_svn_users
- use_emails
- use_profiling
- profiling_number
This plugin will take users from the file pointed by "users_file", mail
users found on the site and email addresses (if "use_emails" is set to True)
and svn users found on the site ( if "use_svn_users" is set to True ).
This plugin will take passwords from the file pointed by "passwd_file" and
the result of the password profiling plugin (if "use_profiling" is set to
True). The profiling_number sets the number of results from the password
profiling plugin to use in the password field.
The "stop_on_first" parameter indicates if the bruteforce will stop when
finding the first valid credentials or not.
