Building an anonymous FTP scanner with Python

We can use the ftplib module for building a script to determine whether a server offers anonymous logins. This mechanism consists of supplying the FTP server with the word anonymous as the name and password of the user. In this way, we can make queries to the FTP server without knowing the data of a specific user. You can find the following code in the checkFTPanonymousLogin.py file, located in the ftplib folder in the GitHub repository:

    try:

        response = ftp.login('anonymous', 'anonymous')
        print(response)
        if "230 Anonymous access granted" in response:
