identify and fingerprint Web Application Firewall products

This package identifies and fingerprints Web Application Firewall (WAF) products using the following logic: - Sends a _normal_ HTTP request and analyses the response; this identifies a number of WAF solutions. - If that is not successful, it sends a number of (potentially malicious) HTTP requests and uses simple logic to deduce which WAF it is. - If that is also not successful, it analyses the responses previously returned and uses another simple algorithm to guess if a WAF or security solution is actively responding to the attacks.
