[PATCH] nselib/bitcoin: add address classification helpers (refs #2857, PR #3371) Melo via dev (May 25)
PR #3371 adds three functions to nselib/bitcoin.lua:
- looks_like_address(value) -- regex candidate detection
- validate_address(value) -- Base58Check, Bech32, Bech32m validation
- classify_address(value) -- high-level classification
Supports mainnet, testnet, and regtest with full unittest (38/38 pass).
No network calls, no external APIs, no real keys, no changes to existing scripts.

[NSE] matter-identify: identify Matter smart-home devices via mDNS Balázs Zoltán (May 11)
Hi,
Attached is matter-identify.nse, a new discovery script for identifying
Matter (formerly Project CHIP) smart-home devices.
It sends DNS PTR queries to 5353/udp for the three Matter service types
defined in the Matter Core Spec section 4:
_matter._tcp.local commissioned / operational nodes
_matterc._udp.local nodes in commissioning mode
_meshcop._udp.local Thread border routers

[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:

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...

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

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.

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

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.

Re: Dovecot Security Advisory OXDC-2026-0002 Noel Butler via Fulldisclosure (May 25)
So when is the fix for dovecot 2.3 source code due to be released?
Since by your wording by not including the first detected versions, it
must be assumed 2.3 is affected, and as no EOL has been published or
announced for 2.3.x, and as 2.3 is the still the most popular used
version by far, should be prudent one is released, given a few more
serious fixes have been made in recent times.

Other Excellent Security Lists

Bugtraq — The premier general security mailing list. Vulnerabilities are often announced here first, so check frequently!

Security Basics — A high-volume list which permits people to ask "stupid questions" without being derided as "n00bs". I recommend this list to network security newbies, but be sure to read Bugtraq and other lists as well.

Penetration Testing — While this list is intended for "professionals", participants frequenly disclose techniques and strategies that would be useful to anyone with a practical interest in security and network auditing.

Info Security News — Carries news items (generally from mainstream sources) that relate to security.

IDS Focus — Technical discussion about Intrusion Detection Systems. You can also read the archives of a previous IDS list

Web App Security — Provides insights on the unique challenges which make web applications notoriously hard to secure, as well as attack methods including SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery, and more.

Daily Dave — This technical discussion list covers vulnerability research, exploit development, and security events/gossip. It was started by ImmunitySec founder Dave Aitel and many security luminaries participate. Many posts simply advertise Immunity products, but you can't really fault Dave for being self-promotional on a list named DailyDave.

RE//verse, DistrictCon, an Anole Friend Dave Aitel via Dailydave (Feb 02)
Last month was DistrictCon, a great conference that I did not attend

spent more than ten minutes in that city knows this is how you cancel every

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
of 1 per 15 minutes (calendar year 2024), means that patching an enterprise before an...
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.

regardless: those imbalances are a byproduct of the...

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

maintain and support that code base, which I don't know that you could.

Re: IPv4 flag day jordi.palet--- via NANOG (Jun 18)
Hi Vincent,
Very nice blog article. Only a note that in the case of 464XLAT, the stateless NAT46 only happens if there is no DNS64
(in the host - self-synthesis - or in the network), so mainly only when using literals (for example ping 8.8.8.8
instead of ping dns.google.com). So in practice, this tends to be much less than 1% of the traffic. Instead in MAP-T it
is 100% of the traffic.
Something that we always forget is that 50% is the IPv6...
Re: IPv4 flag day Saku Ytti via NANOG (Jun 18)
I remember way back when, maybe decade or two ago, big IPv6 kooks like
O et.al. saying how IPv6 will never get NAT much less NAPT. Even back
then, there were several implementations.
The biggest mistake of these well meaning IPv6 kooks are, that they
wanted to force their opinions on what IP should be, when the actual
problem at hand is simply 'not enough addresses'. Give people
everything they do today, NAPT, DHCP (slaacless) etc....

Hi Matthew,
We did try to list all solutions with all proc and cons:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-fbnvv-v6ops-site-multihoming-03
We have found 6 solutions, many are very complicated. But actually you are right: practically it's only 2 (BGP and NAT).
The draft has been blocked because "it does mention NAT".

Re: IPv4 flag day Arie Vayner via NANOG (Jun 17)
The SIP and Gaming use cases are a bit of a strawman argument for this
topic: We are discussing SMB/Enterprise branch use cases.
All of the relevant applications (Video Conferencing, SaaS, general
browsing, ZTNA access to services such as ZScaler/Prisma) don't have any
problems with NAT, and any NAT-specific requirements were solved years ago.
As Matthew mentioned as well... Please provide a working simple design,
that does not require...
Re: IPv4 flag day Arie Vayner via NANOG (Jun 17)
The point I've been trying to make is beyond specific support on specific
platforms, or even beyond the specific SMB-Dual-Internet NAT use case (but
I do believe it's a major gap).
The point is about best practices, documentation, and industry guidance.
Every book, document or standard right now says "IPv6 doesn't support NAT
and you shouldn't be using it".
It also has a list of complicated "best...

In France, new broadband deployments are done with custom CPEs
supporting CLAT. Free is using MAP-E. Bouygues is using MAP-T. SFR
should also start using MAP-T, but this is unclear (for me) if they are
moving beyond the tests. And Orange started deploying DS-Lite.

Re: IPv4 flag day Vincent Bernat via NANOG (Jun 17)
I've worked for a cloud provider, a content provider, and an ISP. In all
cases, there was no interest in artificially keeping IPv4 only. Cloud
providers interest are aligned with their customers: if customers want
IPv6, you'll implement IPv6. Small and large ISPs need IPv6 because
large NAT boxes are expensive to maintain and IPv6 have nicer mechanisms
to provide IPv4 than NAT44 or NAT444. Content providers are enabling
IPv6 to...

Re: IPv4 flag day Douglas Fischer via NANOG (Jun 17)
To consider that the entire problem lies solely in the stateful table of
outgoing and incoming connections is bordering on lack of knowledge.
The big issue lies in the related connections that are not handled by a
simple address translation. Be it 1:1, or 1:many.
The most trivial example to illustrate this is SIP.
And to make things more realistic, let's assume we're talking about secure
SIP, where all SIP communication between the...

Re: IPv4 flag day Douglas Fischer via NANOG (Jun 17)
NAT is cancer!
NAT in IPv6 is spreading cancer cells to all the organs of a new, healthy
body.
NAT it's not just translate addresses... It needs to deal with the
applications upper layers.
NAT breaks everything that uses side-connections like P2P communications.
In other words, this idea that NAT66 can save dual-isp-home connections its
a lie...
It breaks the applications. Especially the end-to-end applications.

Unifi and edgeOS, are two completely different things, nowhere near related

That being said, Unfi is just now barely starting to get any kind of IPv6
support and recognition, but again its Ubiquiti, so it's still rather
crappy.

I was rather surprised to find that the Ubiquiti Unifi box I bought to
play with allows NAT66/NPT -- it just warns that you lose hardware
acceleration. My testing shows that the CPU is sufficient for my
typical home traffic.
As an aside: Today, there are a lot of software based routing
implementations that get close to parity with "big boy" router features.
If you have enough CPU interrupts to deal with your traffic volume, you
