[PATCH 1/2] nping: bind to interface on Linux for IPv4 send-ip ValdikSS via dev (Jun 21)
Linux RAW sockets need to be bound to interface, if the interface is
L3 tunnel (OpenVPN TUN for example).
Otherwise the packet goes via default route, regardless of
`--interface` or `--source-ip` options.

Re: [PATCH] nping: bind to interface on Linux for IPv4 send-ip David Fifield (May 30)
I was going to ask if the same is needed for IPv6, but SO_BINDTODEVICE
is already being set for IPv6:
https://github.com/nmap/nmap/blob/b6e67f834c8cae6c91a33e13ded0c4936534c3df/nping/ProbeMode.cc#L723

There's a function socket_bindtodevice in Nbase that should perhaps be
used in both these places:

Missing host name Dave Close (May 14)
Running Nmap 7.92 on CentOS 8. Commands -sP, -sn, and -sL all behave
the same way. When scanning a local network with local name service,
forward and reverse, for all addresses within the network, not all
addresses are reported with their host names. Specifically, every third
report is missing the name. Since all addresses and names are available
from the same local name server (Bind 9), this doesn't seem reasonable.

Re: ZenMap GUI no longer in Windows pre-compiled binaries? Ben via dev (May 08)
@Gisle Vanem

Hmm, thats not completely true.
Maybe running with pure Python is ONE way to use ZenMap GUI.

If I look on my current nmap installation v7.93 (on windows) then there IS a zenmap.exe in the installation directory.

I virus-checked the .exe, put it into *.zip file and attached it.

Bug Fix for SMB Version Formatting in Nmap 7.93+ Yam Mesicka (Apr 11)
Hi Nmap Developers,

I've identified a bug in Nmap in Nmap 7.93 and 7.94 related to inconsistent
formatting of SMB versions detected by Nmap's SMB scripts.

The issue:

* Nmap 7.94 outputs "3:1:1"
* Nmap 7.93 outputs "311"
* Expected format (as in Nmap 7.92) is "3.1.1"

This inconsistency can cause problems for scripts that rely on accurate SMB
version information. To address this, I've:

Misconception about how pcap_getevent() is meant to be used Jan Danielsson (Mar 10)
Hello,

When browsing/reading about pcap_getevent(), I got the impression
that its intended use was roughly this (pseudo-code):

----------
cap = open_device(..);
hev = pcap_getevent(cap);

while(1) {
// block and wait for data to become available for reading
dw = WaitForMultipleObjects([hev]);
if(dw == FIRST_INDEX) {
// Enter a loop that calls pcap_next() until the buffer is empty
}
}

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.

The security argument is fairly good in the sense that the extension
security model is broken. It's not even about ad blockers: far too many
extensions request overly broad permissions and then either do sneaky
things (e.g., "monetizing" users by stealing browsing histories) or put
users at risk. It doesn't help that if you pop a developer's account, you
can essentially deploy a backdoored extension to all users...

Thanks for all the work towards this release.

Just a paperwork question as I couldn't find the information anywhere,
was there any CVE assigned to the 2nd security issue?

I'm asking because I tried updating the alpine package[1], and given the
first issue is a slightly different problem on musl it probably needs a
different label than CVE-2024-6387 ; I'm honestly...

Re: CVE-2024-6387: RCE in OpenSSH's server, on glibc-based Linux systems Mathias Krause (Jul 01)
Just wanted to provide some comment on the below, as there still seem to
be misunderstandings related to what kernel and userland bugs / features
lead to reduced ASLR. Focusing solely on the thp_get_unmapped_area()
kernel related one isn't sufficient -- especially when we're looking at
old distros, as the Qualys folks did.

As pointed out in the blog[1], file size is far from the only factor to
weaken ASLR. Userland bugs -- pardon me,...

Re: CVE-2024-6387: RCE in OpenSSH's server, on glibc-based Linux systems jvoisin (Jul 01)
I gave a cursory look at the musl libc (https://musl.libc.org/) with the
help of the lovely #musl people, and it doesn't seem to be affected:

- Its syslog implementation (
https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/tree/src/misc/syslog.c ) doesn't
seem to (sub)call async-signal-unsafe functions.
- Thanks to its small size, it's not affected by ALSRn't.

So the worse that can happen might be a deadlock. Which is good news,
since the...

I can tell you NETCOM/AS2551 did charge a monthly
maintenance fee for managing CPE devices, or customers
could opt to self manage their CPE, in which case if they
requested assistance making changes, they would be charged
per incident. (It was something relatively modest -- $50?)

So it's not that new.

That said, I can't remember ever charging someone

First I’ve heard of a provider doing it… and we do business with 3356, the one
carrier I’d expect to do something like this :-)

Might just be me, but I rarely have to have config changes done on circuits
after provisioning, short of enabling dual stack bgp on a circuit that didn’t
have it previously, or if a provider did something silly with your config after
provisioning/acceptance like send you a default route all of a sudden....

they would see who it was from, tie it to a closed ticket where they
already told me they couldn't help me because I wasn't military or a

the highly sensitive data they hold, saw such attacks almost double between
