---
-- The brute library is an attempt to create a common framework for performing
-- password guessing against remote services.
--
-- The library currently attempts to parallelize the guessing by starting
-- a number of working threads and increasing that number gradually until
-- brute.threads limit is reached. The starting number of threads can be set
-- with brute.start argument, it defaults to 5. The brute.threads argument
-- defaults to 20. It is worth noticing that the number of working threads
-- will grow exponentially until any error occurs, after that the engine
-- will switch to linear growth.
--
-- The library contains the following classes:
-- * <code>Engine</code>
-- ** The actual engine doing the brute-forcing .
-- * <code>Error</code>
-- ** Class used to return errors back to the engine.
-- * <code>Options</code>
-- ** Stores any options that should be used during brute-forcing.
--
-- In order to make use of the framework a script needs to implement a Driver
-- class. The Driver class is then to be passed as a parameter to the Engine
-- constructor, which creates a new instance for each guess. The Driver class
-- SHOULD implement the following four methods:
--
-- <code>
-- Driver:login = function( self, username, password )
-- Driver:check = function( self )
-- Driver:connect = function( self )
-- Driver:disconnect = function( self )
-- </code>
--
-- The <code>login</code> method does not need a lot of explanation. The login
-- function should return two parameters. If the login was successful it should
-- return true and a <code>creds.Account</code>. If the login was a failure it
-- should return false and a <code>brute.Error</code>. The driver can signal
-- the Engine to retry a set of credentials by calling the Error objects
-- <code>setRetry</code> method. It may also signal the Engine to abort all
-- password guessing by calling the Error objects <code>setAbort</code> method.
-- Finally, the driver can notify the Engine about protocol related exception
-- (like the ftp code 421 "Too many connections") by calling
-- <code>setReduce</code> method. The latter will signal the Engine to reduce
-- the number of running worker threads.
--
-- The following example code demonstrates how the Error object can be used.
--
-- <code>
-- -- After a number of incorrect attempts VNC blocks us, so we abort
-- if ( not(status) and x:match("Too many authentication failures") ) then
--   local err = brute.Error:new( data )
--   -- signal the engine to abort
--   err:setAbort( true )
--   return false, err
-- elseif ( not(status) ) then
--   local err = brute.Error:new( "VNC handshake failed" )
--   -- This might be temporary, signal the engine to retry
--   err:setRetry( true )
--   return false, err
-- end
-- .
-- .
-- .
-- -- Return a simple error, no retry needed
-- return false, brute.Error:new( "Incorrect password" )
-- </code>
--
-- The purpose of the <code>check</code> method is to be able to determine
-- whether the script has all the information it needs, before starting the
-- brute force. It's the method where you should check, e.g., if the correct
-- database or repository URL was specified or not. On success, the
-- <code>check</code> method returns true, on failure it returns false and the
-- brute force engine aborts.
--
-- NOTE: The <code>check</code> method is deprecated and will be removed from
-- all scripts in the future. Scripts should do this check in the action
-- function instead.
--
-- The <code>connect</code> method provides the framework with the ability to
-- ensure that the thread can run once it has been dispatched a set of
-- credentials. As the sockets in NSE are limited we want to limit the risk of
-- a thread blocking, due to insufficient free sockets, after it has acquired a
-- username and password pair.
--
-- The following sample code illustrates how to implement a sample
-- <code>Driver</code> that sends each username and password over a socket.
--
-- <code>
-- Driver = {
--   new = function(self, host, port, options)
--     local o = {}
--     setmetatable(o, self)
--     self.__index = self
--     o.host = host
--     o.port = port
--     o.options = options
--     return o
--   end,
--   connect = function( self )
--     self.socket = nmap.new_socket()
--     return self.socket:connect( self.host, self.port )
--   end,
--   disconnect = function( self )
--     return self.socket:close()
--   end,
--   check = function( self )
--     return true
--   end,
--   login = function( self, username, password )
--     local status, err, data
--     status, err = self.socket:send( username .. ":" .. password)
--     status, data = self.socket:receive_bytes(1)
--
--     if ( data:match("SUCCESS") ) then
--       return true, creds.Account:new(username, password, creds.State.VALID)
--     end
--     return false, brute.Error:new( "login failed" )
--   end,
-- }
-- </code>
--
-- The following sample code illustrates how to pass the <code>Driver</code>
-- off to the brute engine.
--
-- <code>
-- action = function(host, port)
--   local options = { key1 = val1, key2 = val2 }
--   local status, accounts = brute.Engine:new(Driver, host, port, options):start()
--   if( not(status) ) then
--     return accounts
--   end
--   return stdnse.format_output( true, accounts )
-- end
-- </code>
--
-- The Engine is written with performance and reasonable resource usage in mind
-- and requires minimum extra work from a script developer. A trivial approach
-- is to spawn as many working threads as possible regardless of network
-- conditions, other scripts' needs, and protocol response. This indeed works
-- well, but only in ideal conditions. In reality there might be several
-- scripts running or only limited number of threads are allowed to use sockets
-- at any given moment (as it is in Nmap). A more intelligent approach is to
-- automate the management of Engine's running threads, so that performance
-- of other scripts does not suffer because of exhaustive brute force work.
-- This can be done on three levels: protocol, network, and resource level.
--
-- On the protocol level the developer should notify the Engine about connection
-- restrictions imposed by a server that can be learned during a protocol
-- communication. Like code 421 "To many connections" is used in FTP. Reasonably
-- in such cases we would like to reduce the number of connections to this
-- service, hence saving resources for other work and reducing the load on the
-- target server. This can be done by returning an Error object with called
-- <code>setReduce</code> method on it. The error will make the Engine reduce
-- the number of running threads.
--
-- Following is an example how it can be done for FTP brute.
--
-- <code>
-- local line = <response from the server>
--
-- if(string.match(line, "^230")) then
--   stdnse.debug1("Successful login: %s/%s", user, pass)
--   return true, creds.Account:new( user, pass, creds.State.VALID)
-- elseif(string.match(line, "^530")) then
--   return false, brute.Error:new( "Incorrect password" )
-- elseif(string.match(line, "^421")) then
--   local err = brute.Error:new("Too many connections")
--   err:setReduce(true)
--   return false, err
-- elseif(string.match(line, "^220")) then
-- elseif(string.match(line, "^331")) then
-- else
--   stdnse.debug1("WARNING: Unhandled response: %s", line)
--   local err = brute.Error:new("Unhandled response")
--   err:setRetry(true)
--   return false, err
-- end
-- </code>
--
-- On the network level we want to catch errors that can occur because of
-- network congestion or target machine specifics, say firewalled. These
-- errors can be caught as return results of operations on sockets, like
-- <code>local status, err = socket.receive()</code>. Asking a developer to
-- relay such errors to the Engine is counterproductive, and it would lead to
-- bloated scripts with lots of repetitive code. The Engine takes care of that
-- with a little help from the developer. The only thing that needs to be
-- done is to use <code>brute.new_socket()</code> instead of
-- <code>nmap.new_socket()</code> when creating a socket in a script.
--
-- NOTE: A socket created with <code>brute.new_socket()</code> will behave as
-- a regular socket when used without the brute library. The returned object
-- is a BruteSocket instance, which can be treated as a regular socket object.
--
-- Example on creating "brute" socket.
--
-- <code>
-- connect = function( self )
--   self.socket = brute.new_socket()
--   local status, err = self.socket:connect(self.host, self.port)
--   self.socket:set_timeout(arg_timeout)
--   if(not(status)) then
--     return false, brute.Error:new( "Couldn't connect to host: " .. err )
--   end
--   return true
-- end
-- </code>
--
-- On the resource level the Engine can query the current status of the NSE.
-- As of the time of writing, the only parameter used is a number of threads
-- waiting for connection (as was said before the NSE has a constraint on the
-- number of concurrent connections due to performance reasons). With a
-- running brute script the limit can be hit pretty fast, which can affect
-- performance of other scripts. To mitigate this situation resource management
-- strategy is used, and the Engine will reduce the number of working threads
-- if there are any threads waiting for connection. As a result the preference
-- for connection will be given to non brute scripts and if there are many
-- brute scripts running simultaneously, then they will not exhaust resources
-- unnecessarily.
-- This feature is enabled by default and does not require any additional work
-- from the developer.
--
-- Stagnation avoidance mechanism is implemented to alert users about services
-- that might have failed during bruteforcing. The Engine will abort if all working
-- threads have been experiencing connection errors during 100 consequentive
-- iterations of the main thread loop. If <code>brute.killstagnated</code>
-- is set to <code>false</code> the Engine will continue after issuing a
-- warning.
--
-- For a complete example of a brute implementation consult the
-- <code>svn-brute.nse</code> or <code>vnc-brute.nse</code> scripts
--
-- @args brute.useraspass guess the username as password for each user
--       (default: true)
-- @args brute.emptypass guess an empty password for each user
--       (default: false)
-- @args brute.unique make sure that each password is only guessed once
--       (default: true)
-- @args brute.firstonly stop guessing after first password is found
--       (default: false)
-- @args brute.passonly iterate over passwords only for services that provide
--       only a password for authentication. (default: false)
-- @args brute.retries the number of times to retry if recoverable failures
--       occur. (default: 2)
-- @args brute.delay the number of seconds to wait between guesses (default: 0)
-- @args brute.threads the number of initial worker threads, the number of
--       active threads will be automatically adjusted.
-- @args brute.mode can be user, pass or creds and determines what mode to run
--       the engine in.
--       * user - the unpwdb library is used to guess passwords, every password
--                password is tried for each user. (The user iterator is in the
--                outer loop)
--       * pass - the unpwdb library is used to guess passwords, each password
--                is tried for every user. (The password iterator is in the
--                outer loop)
--       * creds- a set of credentials (username and password pairs) are
--                guessed against the service. This allows for lists of known
--                or common username and password combinations to be tested.
--       If no mode is specified and the script has not added any custom
--       iterator the pass mode will be enabled.
-- @args brute.credfile a file containing username and password pairs delimited
--       by '/'
-- @args brute.guesses the number of guesses to perform against each account.
--       (default: 0 (unlimited)). The argument can be used to prevent account
--       lockouts.
-- @args brute.start the number of threads the engine will start with.
--       (default: 5).
