Pull request: make ncat http proxy listen only on specified address Nimrod MacIomhair (May 16)
Dear all,

there is an issue with the ncat http proxy functionality: it will not
only listen on the specified address but on all available addresses.

The fix is a one-liner, I've created a pull request for that:
https://github.com/nmap/nmap/pull/2614

Cheers,

PR on Github - Write service probe for MSMQ Gonçalo César Mendes Ribeiro via dev (May 16)
Hello,

This is just to inform you that I have opened PR #2632 [1] on GitHub.
Leaving the PR description below for quick reference.

"Adds a service probe to confirm whether the service running on TCP port
1801 is MSMQ (Microsoft Message Queuing).

I've documented here [2] part of my process as I was studying/testing
the protocol to implement the probe.

This probe may help identify MSMQ exposure that may need to be
remediated to...

RE: SYN vs Connect scans Rob Nicholls (May 13)
Hi Gregg,

I’m going to assume that the results from your TCP Connect scan are accurate for the host. Those results contain a
large number of open ports (a Windows domain controller, if I had to guess), but no closed ports (all other ports are
filtered).

The SYN Scan only reports closed ports (where Nmap received a RST from something), with the rest marked as filtered.
Noticeably, there are no open ports.

There also does not appear to be...

SYN vs Connect scans Gregg Doherty (May 12)
Can someone explain why SYN Scan isn't finding all the open ports? But
TCP connect scan does. Both would require the ACK from the target.

Zenmap patch for GitHub Issue #2626 Meya (Apr 05)
Hello,

I stumbled across a small "issue" post on your GitHub mirror
(https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/2626) and made the quick fix. I'll
attach the nmap.patch file as mentioned in your small "HACKING" text file.

Also I did a quick GitHub fork, fixed it there and made a pull request
(https://github.com/nmap/nmap/pull/2627).

I'd be happy to hear back from you.

smb2-security-mode and SMB3 JT Tyra (Mar 21)
Hello Everyone,

While working through some vulnerability reports at my company, I came
across the following output from nmap, in particular the
smb2-security-mode.nse script.

The long story short here is that I believe this is a false positive. When
SMBv3 is the only available smb dialect AND smb encryption is enabled,
message signing exists. SMBv3 does an Encrypt+Sign

Re: NMAP Scan help Jon Gorenflo (Feb 04)
Seeing JavaScript comments during an NMAP scan can indeed be a concern for clients with proprietary information. The
best way to protect this information is to not include it in the source code of the website. If it is absolutely
necessary to include it, it can be obfuscated to make it more difficult for an attacker to understand, but it cannot be
completely protected from being seen during a scan.

a while back I did some reversing and security analysis on Oracle database's

First of all, I wanted to thank you for your work in developing great software. I use Ncat on a daily basis and it is a

A very useful feature would be for Ncat messages to have a timestamp, to know when connections have been established.
Especially in listen mode, but also in connect mode.

Dear Nmap community,

Twenty five years ago today, I released the first version of Nmap in a
Phrack article named The Art of Port Scanning (https://nmap.org/p51-11.html).
I never thought I'd still be at it a quarter of a century later, but that's
because I also didn't anticipate such a wonderful community of users and
contributors spanning those decades. You've helped Nmap blossom from a
fairly simple port scanner to a...

Re: Checking existence of firewalled URLs via javascript's script.onload Jonathan Gregson via Fulldisclosure (Apr 28)
Hi Georgi,

As you suggested, this is a CSRF attack. Using such techniques to attack or enumerate local applications has been known
for some time and is a very difficult issue to address. Browsers have done well in preventing malicious _authenticated_
cross-site requests, but as you've found, attackers can still use such techniques for enumeration and information
gathering.

Fortunately, it's not very practical except in targeted...

This might have privacy implication on potentially

Re: Fussing about with fuzzers Adrian Sanabria via Dailydave (May 22)
IMO, we're in the toddler phase of LLMs right now. You know how toddlers

good at, we're going to keep throwing weird stuff at them to see what

Fussing about with fuzzers Dave Aitel via Dailydave (May 22)
So last week at offensivecon I watched a talk on Fuzzilli (

no idea what it was. Obviously I knew it was a Googlely Javascript fuzzer,
finding bugs. But I did not realize that it was applying mutations to its
own intermediate language which it then compiled to Javascript. I just
assumed it was, like most fuzzers, mutating the javascript directly (f.e....

So if you've spent enough time looking at graph databases, you will
invariably run into people who are obsessed with "ontologies". The basic

relationships and infer knowledge about things you didn't already know,
which could be useful? There...

Performance thoughts Dave Aitel via Dailydave (Apr 28)

that because of the drama involved in the security market. Which is very
smart of them! :)

So one thing I have as a "lessons learned" from the past 20 years is that
security is not a proactive sport. In fact, we are all experts at running
to where the ball _was_as opposed to where it is _going_.

3. The target resolver erroneously interprets the 0 length as a

Re: Do ISP's collect and analyze traffic of users? Michael Thomas (May 19)
Yeah, my curiosity was whether ISP were trying to get in the monetizing
traffic analysis biz which seems to be a small degree but they can't
really compete with the much finer grained information that other means
can provide and that they have no particular expertise in it or an
institutional desire. For things like Google and Facebook, that kind of
analysis was part of their initial business plan.

No doubt there is a massive amount of information that can be gathered from

gathering data from traffic in flight across their infrastructure.

Thank you
jms

Re: Do ISP's collect and analyze traffic of users? Hank Nussbacher (May 19)
It amazes me how people can focus on Netflow metadata and ignore things
like Microsoft telemetry data from every Windows box, or ignore the
massive amount of html cookies that are traded by companies or how
almost every corporate firewall or anti-spam box "reports" back to the
mother ship and sends tons of information via secret channels like
hashed DNS lookups just to be avoided.
