Abstract
A vulnerability scanning method includes: identifying a host service running on a target host and creating a scan task that matches the identified host service; issuing the created scan task to a task scheduling center, to allow a proxy node to acquire at least one scan task from the task scheduling center, where the proxy node executes the at least one scan task for the target host, and obtains a scan result; and receiving the scan result fed back by the proxy node, determining whether there exists a specified host service in the identified host service, where the specified host service signifies an existence of a web site resource running on the target host, and if there exists the specified host service in the identified host service, issuing again a scan subtask corresponding to the specified host service to the task scheduling center.
