IIS short scanner module (Tilde enumeration) - multiple files with same prefix

[0xea31]

There might be a problem with files with multiple dots.

For instance, web.config.old is discovered as web~1.con

iis_shortname_Scan.py finds the same file as *`webcon~1.old`**

Side question: is there room to spot file with multiple dots?

I investigated the issue and I discovered that both Rustbuster and the python IIS short name scanner implementation are bugged when multiple files with the same prefix exist.

Given two existing files web.config and web.config.old, we will see the following results:

1. Rustbuster will stop at the shortest match, i.e. web.config
2. IIS short name scanner won't match on web.config and will match on the longer web.config.old

I fixed Rustbuster and I am going to release a patched version.

Thanks for the report.
