I'm looking for a way to have a web form that collects a host IP
address, a choice of one (of three or so) sets of plugins to use, and a
"start scan" button that calls a script to start the scan accordingly.
The results should be returned as HTML as a new page.
As an overview of what I'm trying to accomplish... we have a customer
"portal" that allows all of our customers to access all of their account
information, see previous billing statements, make changes, etc. The
goal is to add Nessus scanning as a tool. Ideally, they click a link,
and a few seconds/minutes later, the page refreshes (or maybe in a
frame) with the results of the scan.
I'm assuming this is possible with the command line and some fancy
scripting (perl, PHP, whatever)... I just don't know where to start.
Maybe someone has already done something similar?
