[PATCH 0/5] ALPN-based HTTP/2 service detection improvements Urval Kheni (Apr 14)
Hi,

This patch series introduces ALPN-based improvements to service detection
for TLS services.

It adds support for extracting the negotiated ALPN protocol and uses
"h2" as a conservative fallback signal to infer HTTP over TLS when
service detection fails.

This improves detection of HTTP/2-only services, which return binary
responses not recognized by existing probes.

The changes are structured as follows:

1. Fix OpenSSL provider...

Bug Report: ssl-enum-ciphers fails (EOF) on CloudFront/ECDSA targets supporting TLS 1.2 Jack Seredyniecki via dev (Apr 14)
Hello nmap dev team,

I am reporting a false negative where ssl-enum-ciphers fails to detect TLS
1.2 on a CloudFront target (itwisegroup.com:443) that uses an ECDSA
certificate and Post-Quantum hybrid key exchange (X25519MLKEM768).
While sslscan and openssl confirm TLS 1.2 is active, Nmap reports only TLS
1.3. My debug logs show the server is dropping the connection (EOF) during
the Nmap TLS 1.2 handshake attempt:

[PATCH] Support Linux capabilities for non-root raw packet scanning Ali Norouzi via dev (Apr 14)
Hi everyone,

I just opened a PR that adds support for Linux capabilities, allowing nmap to
perform raw packet scans without sudo when the binary has `CAP_NET_RAW` set via
setcap:

Fix for issue #3326 advait deshmukh (Apr 14)
Issue link <https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/3326>
Pull request link <https://github.com/nmap/nmap/pull/3337>
I read the source code and, from what I understood, the current output
appears to be intentional. The ipv4 value being shown seems to refer to the
next header, i.e., the protocol of the packet encapsulated within the outer
packet, which in this case is IPv6.
Since the user has explicitly specified -6 in the command, it...

Hello Everyone!

We are conducting a research study on how organizations handle the
aftermath of cybersecurity incidents and we would greatly value your
perspective. Our focus is on what happens after a security incident is
resolved. How do teams reflect on these events? How do organizations
learn from incidents?

GSoC 2026: Password Security Wizard - Optimizing the NSE Brute Library Adithya Shetty (Mar 02)
Hi Nmap Development Team and Fotis,

My name is Adithya, and I am a 4th-semester Computer Science student
specializing in Cybersecurity. I am writing to express my strong interest
in the "Password Security Wizard" project for GSoC 2026.

Over the past few days, I have cloned the repository, set up my build
environment, and have been digging into the nselib/brute.lua library and
several of the -brute.nse scripts (specifically focusing on...

Question about Nmap and GSoC 2026 Sweekar (Jan 29)
Hi Nmap developers,

I am a student contributor and have previously worked on Nmap. I am
preparing for Google Summer of Code 2026 and wanted to ask whether Nmap is
considering participating as a mentoring organization this year, or if
there are no plans at this time.

Thank you for your time and for maintaining such an important project.

Best regards,

Npcap Version 1.82 Released with VLAN Tagging and More Gordon Fyodor Lyon (Apr 28)
Dear Nmap Community,

In preparation for an imminent Nmap release (hopefully this week!), we have
released Version 1.82 of our Npcap Windows packet capture and transmission
driver. It builds upon the recent 1.81 release to add support for VLAN
tagging. This allows you to select for packets directed to a certain VLAN
or just inspect the VLAN headers on any packets received. It's especially
useful for Wireshark users. You can also now send...

Nmap 7.95 released: OS and service detection signatures galore! Gordon Fyodor Lyon (May 05)
Dear Nmap Community,

I just arrived in San Francisco for the RSA conference and am delighted to
announce our Nmap Version 7.95 release! I'm most excited that we finally
tackled our backlog of OS and service detection fingerprint submissions.
We're not talking about dozens or hundreds of them-we processed more than
6,500 fingerprints!

For OS detection, we added 336 signatures, bringing the new total to 6,036.
Additions include iOS 15...

RE//verse, DistrictCon, an Anole Friend Dave Aitel via Dailydave (Feb 02)
Last month was DistrictCon, a great conference that I did not attend
because the sky decided to dump snow on Washington, DC. Anyone who has
spent more than ten minutes in that city knows this is how you cancel every

it was 80 degrees and everyone was pretending winter is a myth.

them somewhere overhead, wings spread wide, fingers splayed, feeling the...

Re: Defense ? Dean Pierce via Dailydave (Nov 16)
I like the idea of having a software supply chain that people can pay into
that basically funds a universal bug bounty system for anything that
matters.

You can put systems in place that utilize zero knowledge exploitability
proofs to automate bounty triage, so it doesn't even need to be run by a
central trusted entity. As the bounty markets stabilize, what you're left
with is a software ecosystem where anyone can build what they need...

Historically, “we’ve” moved the bar in defense.

- Everything is now in the cloud, accessible 24/7 via APIs whose keys are stored in plaintext alongside code, or via
preauthenticated sessions
- Everything has ~40 dependencies, each of which has ~40 dependencies, etc, which, combined with a published CVE rate

Re: Defense ? Alfonso De Gregorio via Dailydave (Nov 16)
Imbalances in the skills and workforce are real. The gap remains hard
to bridge also in the presence of greater degrees of automation that
AI buys us, because, at this stage, we want humans to be in the loop –
and for good reasons – and, also, cause we are not going to grow the
skillset faster than the attack surface, I am afraid.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but I will take a bite
regardless: those imbalances are a byproduct of the...

Re: Defense ? Conan Dooley via Dailydave (Nov 16)
Reduce complexity, duplication, and scope in your infrastructure. Your
developers and infrastructure staff would need to agree on standardized

complexity led to business value that was greater than that overhead (vs,

How would one actually move the actual bar in defense? A big part of me
thinks that you're just not going to patch your way out of the problem. But
the number of organizations that you can rely on to actually make a
difference seems pretty small? Like even converting every Linux binary to
rust would only make sense if you could find a team that could actually
maintain and support that code base, which I don't know that you could.

Updated *releases* don't really make sense, generically. The bug is in
the compiler, not the package, so one would rebuild the existing release
with a new compiler. Consider how you handle this if a package had a

Re: How much do you automate your automation? Andrew Latham via NANOG (Apr 15)
Small note to add here, order of configuration change is possible in automation
and configuration management systems. Often the manual MOP/Playbook take
for granted the procedural ordering of changes that a configuration management
system can apply all at once across the board instantly. I think this
very issue has
caused some caos for organizations in the past.

Broadcom J2/Q2 hardware filters Graham Johnston via NANOG (Apr 15)
Good day.

We all expect that in picking a hardware platform built around the Broadcom
Jericho 2 or Qumran 2, that we are realizing our cost savings with some
sacrifices; my use case involves the Q2C and Q2A variants. One of those
sacrifices appears to be the concurrent set of filters that are able to be
programmed into the hardware at any given time. To be clear, the ASIC seems
to be able to perform a wide variety of functions, but is much more...

Re: How much do you automate your automation? Saku Ytti via NANOG (Apr 14)
If you do deltas, this is a very difficult problem. Trying to
reconcile how to move from A to B. This often leads to a network where
some things are managed by automation, like interface/bgp turn-up,
some things are managed by people. And the true state is the
configuration backup, there is no way to recreate the entire config
from data.
Even the mentioned hyperscalers rarely actually manage 100% of config
via system, they manage DC from system,...

Re: How much do you automate your automation? Brandon Z. via NANOG (Apr 14)
Hi,

I think if we want to keep environments consistent across all devices, we
should avoid manually tweaking any single server. it’s better to run
everything in batches.

That way, if one device has been manually adjusted, the batch script won’t
fail unexpectedly.

Also, now that we have the AI agent, for these simple issues we can just
give it a high-level task instead of being overly specific. Once the script
is tested, we can batch-deploy...

Re: How much do you automate your automation? Patrick W. Gilmore via NANOG (Apr 14)
Certain companies, e.g. hyperscalers, automate changes completely. An engineer / architect decides what do to, e.g.
upgrade all the XXX routers to OS YYY. Then they hand that off to an operations team which uses a pre-written script
(really much much much more than a “script” - frequently written by a third team) to tell the “upgrade all device type
$FOO to OS $BAR”. At which point the system figures which devices get upgraded,...

Re: SPF/DKIM/DMARC et.al.: REALLY LONG [was: is it just me or...] Christopher Morrow via NANOG (Apr 14)
I don't disagree with you, mostly... but, what's the solution here?

Better heuristics at the receiver (either the leaf or the end-mTA)

Learning to live with spam in your inbox and better surfacing that

How much do you automate your automation? Jon Lewis via NANOG (Apr 14)
I've been told that at [some of] the largest networks, network engineers
"never directly log into network devices". This implies that all
configuration changes made to and insights gleaned from the network gear
are done via some form of automation.

I assume it's commonplace to have/use Unix CLI tools for executing
configuration changes. I've written such things for the past couple of
places I've worked so...

If you recall (or don't ;) ) this thread, my (lengthy) argument was
that all the so-called email anti-forgery technologies have been neatly
undercut by pervasive security problems, and thus the overall effect
of deploying them has been to make the email forgery problem much worse
than it was before they existed.

Some of you agreed, some disagreed, and so on. The usual. ;)
