Plugin 10766 - Apache Remote User Enumeration

Subject: Plugin 10766 - Apache Remote User Enumeration
Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2007 08:51:46 -0800 (PST)

I'm having trouble verifying findings from this
plugin. It is getting triggered agaist a few
webservers, but when I try to verify by using a
webbrowser to request valid and invalid usernames, the
responses are the same. I've also examine packet
captures, and they look the same also. The only real
difference in the error pages (and in the pcap) is the
username that I requested.

What part of the response is retrieved and evaluated
by:
 res = http_keepalive_send_recv(port:port, data:req);

It appears that Apache Tomcat servers are triggering
this.

running Nessus 3.0.2 on Suse.

Thanks

Jeff
