    SSH substitute user command

    The use of the following commands is to execute commands with a different user/privilege escalation.

    1. sudo: This command is found in most of the Linux based systems (or can be installed). Used to execute commands as a different user (other than the one used to log in). From the tools perspective, it uses root account to perform the commands.
    2. doas: It is an OpenBSD based command. 95% of its features are like sudo. https://man.openbsd.org/doas
    3. sesu: It is an IBM implementation of su.
    4. dzdo: Used in Linux/Unix (can be installed at will). An alternative to sudo.
    5. pfexec: Mostly used in Solaris.
    6. custom: It gives a flexibility to use a custom defined privilege escalation command. 
    SSH custom user commandThis field is available when the user selects custom in the SSH substitute user command field. Add a custom command for escalating privilege.
    SMB allow NTLMv1Check this box to enable the authentication using NTLMv1.
    Enable remote registryIf enabled, the scanner initiates the Remote Registry service with the given details. Disable the service when the scan is finished.
  4. Click Test to start a verification.
  5. Click Save to enable the current settings.
