in Installation:

In KALI LINUX™ for example: /usr/share/nmap/scripts/

you have forgot to update nse database

  sudo nmap --script-updatedb

The above command it will update nse database with the recent script, just like in metasploit we update msfdb database with reload_all command ..

Thanks for your feedback. You're right, the updatedb command should be executed for the correct assignment. I did some tests with the categories (safe, vuln), e.g. nmap -sV --script safe . The script should be run separately with -sV if possible for high stability with the API and not integrated into a category. I will continue testing and add this note in the next release.

r00t-3xp10it commented 5 years ago

Exelent ..because i normally call vuln categorie in my scans ..

OCSAF commented 5 years ago

I have removed the category assignment to safe and vuln in the script and made an adjustment of the README.md with explanations. Thanks for the inputs.
