NIKTO2 - WEB SERVER SCANNER
Nikto is an Open Source (GPL) web server scanner which performs comprehensive tests against web servers for multiple items, including over 6700 potentially dangerous files/programs, checks for outdated versions of over 1250 servers, and version specific problems on over 270 servers. It also checks for server configuration items such as the presence of multiple index files, HTTP server options, and will attempt to identify installed web servers and software. Scan items and plugins are frequently updated and can be automatically updated.
Nikto is not designed as a stealthy tool. It will test a web server in the quickest time possible, and is obvious in log files or to an IPS/IDS. However, there is support for LibWhisker's anti-IDS methods in case you want to give it a try (or test your IDS system).
Not every check is a security problem, though most are. There are some items that are "info only" type checks that look for things that may not have a security flaw, but the webmaster or security engineer may not know are present on the server. These items are usually marked appropriately in the information printed. There are also some checks for unknown items which have been seen scanned for in log files.
Features
Here are some of the major features of Nikto. See the documentation for a full list of features and how to use them.

Basic Testing
The most basic Nikto scan requires simply a host to target, since port 80 is assumed if none is specified. The host can either be an IP or a hostname of a machine, and is specified using the
-h
(-host
) option. This will scan the IP 192.168.0.1 on TCP port 80:perl nikto.pl -h 192.168.0.1
To check on a different port, specify the port number with the
-p
(-port
) option. This will scan the IP 192.168.0.1 on TCP port 443:perl nikto.pl -h 192.168.0.1 -p 443
Hosts, ports and protocols may also be specified by using a full URL syntax, and it will be scanned:
perl nikto.pl -h https://192.168.0.1:443/
There is no need to specify that port 443 may be SSL, as Nikto will first test regular HTTP and if that fails, HTTPS. If you are sure it is an SSL server, specifying
-s
(-ssl
) will speed up the test.perl nikto.pl -h 192.168.0.1 -p 443 -ssl
More complex tests can be performed using the
-mutate
parameter, as detailed later. This can produce extra tests, some of which may be provided with extra parameters through the -mutate-options
parameter. For example, using -mutate
3, with or without a file attempts to brute force usernames if the web server allows ~user
URIs:perl nikto.pl -h 192.168.0.1 -mutate 3 -mutate-options user-list.txt
Nikto can scan multiple ports in the same scanning session. To test more than one port on the same host, specify the list of ports in the
-p
(-port
) option. Ports can be specified as a range (i.e., 80-90), or as a comma-delimited list, (i.e., 80,88,90). This will scan the host on ports 80, 88 and 443.perl nikto.pl -h 192.168.0.1 -p 80,88,443
