Subject: Vulnerability/Penetration Testing Tools

All,
    I am in the process of researching a wide variety of penetration 
testing tools and vulnerability assessment tools. I've already 
researched many of the commercial tools like Coresecurity's Core Impact 
tool and even know a bit about the new tool that saint is about to come 
out with. What about open-source tools?

    Are there any open source tools like Core Impact that allow you to 
not only scan a network for vulnerabilities but then allow you to issue 
attacks against those vulnerabilities? I'm interested in both windows 
based and *nix based tools. Yes I am aware of nessus, exploit tree, 
metaspoloit etc... but none of those really have the "identify then 
attack" type of structure... they are either "identify" or "attack".
