Increase service probes max line length Reece (Jul 07)
I created a PR on github to increase the probe line length, we created a
custom probe for our own purposes to detect quic based on a tcpdump packet,
but it's quite long so went over the line length, this, the PR increases
the line length and adds a nicer error if you hit the max:

Currently we are applying it as a patch in our build infra but would be
great to get it upstream.

Automatic protocol selection? Roy Sigurd Karlsbakk (Jul 06)
Hi all

Sometimes I use nmap in my scripts and since I'm in a mixed environment, where most of the hosts are dual protocol, not
all are, and some are only on IPv4 or IPv6, depending on the type of equipment and their function. Most other software,
will just default to a single protocol, typically IPv6, and then fall back to the other if the first fails. At first I
thought using the -6 flag would do so (as it says 'Enable IPv6...

Fix ndiff.bat issue on Windows georges.zwing (Jul 04)
Hi,

I created this PR <https://github.com/nmap/nmap/pull/2865> to fix this
issue <https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/2733> running ndiff.bat on
Windows. It also removes the requirement to have Python installed separately
from Zenmap.

But I don't see the Travis CI build tests mentioned in
https://github.com/nmap/nmap/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md in the PR. Should I
look somewhere else?

[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.

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.

Since I plan to run nmap portable from USB flash drive and don't want to leave traces (like new, extra Python
installations)

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...

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...

In streampark-console the list pages(e.g: application pages), users can sort page by field. This sort field is sent
from the front-end to the back-end, and the SQL query is generated using this field. However, because this sort field

Executable files and shared libraries should _never_ be modified
in-place. They should _always_ be renamed over. Otherwise, a program
might be a mixture of the old and new version, with completely undefined
results when the program is run.
