Google Launches Free Web Application Scanning Tool.

[JMH]

Google has developed a free, open-source Web application vulnerability scanning tool: The so-called Skipfish tool, written by renowned Web security researcher Michal Zalewski, who joined Google in 2007, is aimed at Web developers and security researchers.

Skipfish is written in C and handles 2,000 requests per second from "responsive targets," Google's Zalewski wrote in a blog post announcing Skipfish. The automated Web application security scanner also uses heuristics, he said.
