Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.102002
Category:Product detection
Title:Operating System (OS) Detection (ICMP)
Summary:ICMP based OS fingerprinting / detection.
Description:Summary:
ICMP based OS fingerprinting / detection.

Vulnerability Insight:
This script performs ICMP based OS fingerprinting (as
described by Ofir Arkin and Fyodor Yarochkin in Phrack #57). It can be used to determine
the remote OS and partly it's version.

Note: This routine / method is false positive prone (especially in virtualized
environments) and only the last resort if any other OS detection method is failing). Due
to this it is possible to disable this routine via the script preferences.

CVSS Score:
