Hey guys, I have put up an unofficial release (tarball only) of Nmap
3.10ALPHA5. If people could test this, that would be great. In
particular, I would like to know:
o Does it compile on your OpenBSD machine?
o Any strange problems (eg from the Libpcap upgrade)?
o Get any segfault/bus errors? This version should fix those issues,
as it includes Tom Duffy's patch.
Here are the CHANGELOG entries for this unofficial release:
o Upgraded libpcap from version 0.6.2 to 0.7.1. Updated the
libpcap-possiblymodified/NMAP_MODIFICATIONS file to give a much
more extensive list (including diffs) of the changes included
in the Nmap bundled version of Libpcap.
o Applied patch to fix a libpcap alignment bug found by Tom Duffy
(tduffy_at_sun.com).
o Applied patch from Matthieu Verbert (mve_at_zurich.ibm.com) which
places the Nmap man pages under ${prefix}/share/man rather than
${prefix}/man when installed via RPM. Maybe the tarball
install should do this too? Opinions?
o Applied patch by Chad Loder (cloder_at_loder.us) of Rapid7 which
fixes OpenBSD compilation. I believe Chad is now the official
OpenBSD Nmap "port" maintainer. His patch also adjusted
random-scan (-iR) to include the recently allocated 82.0.0.0/8
space.
o Fixed (I hope) a couple compilation problems on
non-IPv6-enabled machines which were noted by Josef 'Jupp'
Schugt (jupp_at_gmx.de)
o Applied patch from R Anderson (listbox_at_pole-position.org) which
improves the way ICMP port unreadhables from intermediate hosts
are handled during UDP scans.
o Added note to man page related to Nmap US export control. I
believe Nmap falls under ECCN 5D992, which has no special
restrictions beyond the standard export denial to a handful of
rogue nations such as Iraq and North Korea.
o Added a warning that some hosts may be skipped and/or repeated
when someone tries to --resume a --randomize_hosts scan. This
was suggested by Crayden Mantelium (crayden_at_sensewave.com)
o Removed disparaging comments about distributed.net from the
nmap-services file (see
http://lists.distributed.net/hypermail/rc5.Dec2002/0162.html )
o Fixed a minor memory leak noted by Michael Davis
(mike_at_datanerds.net).
The tarball is available from
