Request for review: Windows MaxUserPort / WSL2 networking fix (PR #3499) 山﨑結友 (Oct 03)
Hi all,

I'd appreciate a review of this PR:
https://github.com/nmap/nmap/pull/3499

Nmap's "Network Performance Improvements" installer option sets
MaxUserPort=65534. On Windows 11, I found that this changes the dynamic
port range from 49152–65535 to 1024–65534. This has been linked to WSL2
mirrored networking failures, with several users tracing the problem
to the Nmap installer:...

Re:New OS fingerprint: China Unicom ONT/ONU (Realtek/Boa) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Aug 01)
Hi Nmap developers,

I'd like to submit service fingerprints for a China Unicom GPON ONT (model PT927G) that I found in my home network.
This device runs a Linux-based firmware (kernel 3.18.24) and exposes several services.

**Device Information**:
- Model: PT927G
- Vendor: China Unicom (customized)
- Hardware hint: SMB share comment mentions "Realtek", suggesting a Realtek chipset.

**Service Fingerprints**:
1. **HTTP (port...

Re:Correction: Huawei router misidentified as Netgear switch (fingerprint included) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Aug 01)
Hi developers,

I'd like to add a service fingerprint for port 37443/tcp on the Huawei AX3 router.

This port runs SSL/TLS and requires client certificate authentication (mTLS). When connecting with a self-signed client
certificate, the server rejects it with a "unknown ca" alert, indicating that it verifies the client certificate
against a trusted CA.

**Certificate details:**

Subject: CN=Master.ws7100-10, O=Huawei Technologies...

Re:Correction: Huawei router misidentified as Netgear switch (fingerprint included) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Aug 01)
Hi Nmap developers,

Following up on my previous submissions (OS fingerprint and NSE script for the Huawei AX3), I've conducted a full port
scan and discovered two additional services that may help refine the service fingerprint database.

**1. Port 37215/tcp – UPnP**
- Service identified as: `Huawei ATP gateway upnpd`
- This seems to be already correctly matched in `nmap-service-probes`. I just wanted to confirm its presence.

**2. Port...

PATCH] New NSE script: huawei-ax3-info.nse

Hi Nmap developers,

Following up on my previous OS fingerprint submission for the Huawei AX3 router (Message-ID:
<335797c9.5fe8.19fb73084b0.Coremail.gbfdhenr () 163 com>), I've developed an NSE script to extract device information
from the router's /api/system/deviceinfo endpoint.

The script retrieves:

- Hardware version
- Serial number
- Uptime

Correction: Huawei router misidentified as Netgear switch (fingerprint included) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Jul 31)
Hi Nmap team,

I've encountered a clear OS detection misidentification that I believe should be corrected.

**Device in question**:
- A Huawei home router (MAC OUI: 30:A9:98 -> Huawei Device)
- Open ports: 53, 80, 443 (typical router/AP, not a headless switch)
- Running: Linux-based firmware (likely 3.18.24)

**Current incorrect result**:
Nmap 7.99 reports it as: "Netgear GS108Tv3, GS110Tv3, or GS308T switch (Linux 3.18.24)"...

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
flight out of DCA and turn the roads into skating rinks filled with deeply
furious government contractors. Life is short, so I remained in Miami where
it was 80 degrees and everyone was pretending winter is a myth.

feeling the air Dave Aitel via Dailydave (Jan 05)
For reasons I still don’t fully understand, Miami Beach has enormous
colonies of turkey vultures. You’ll see them circling over the city and the
interstates, perched like huge awkward toddlers on lampposts, or standing
motionless as a shadow in the strip of grass between the road and the blue
water of the bay. If you look up at almost any moment, there’s a column of
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...

Re: Defense ? Chris Anley via Dailydave (Nov 16)
(gingerly raises head above parapet)

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.

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
libraries, frameworks, etc, and you'd need skilled technical staff to
validate when people said doing something wasn't possible within that
scope, and make them accountable for making sure adding that level of
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.

Hi,

Barring everything everyone else has said about availability/cost/suitability,

You either do already (or you had better configure it so that you do in the future) get warnings from your RAID
controller(s) when the remaining durability on an SSD falls below a threshold.

I think in Dell it's 5%. So it's not like they fail silently and you're just stuck.

Whereas HDDs (aside from some hours based predictive failure mechanisms...

Re: HDD whining Bryan Fields via NANOG (Sep 26)
So this is also a thing as it pertains to spinning rust. SAS will greatly out
perform SATA _every_ time. It can be massive, I've seen 2x the speed and
latency especially on SAS vs the same SATA drive. SAS disks support queuing
and full duplex on the interface (6 vs 12gb really doesn't matter), whereas
SATA doesn't. In a ZFS pool this can be huge, especially with raidz vs mirrors.

IOPS are still crap on rust vs ssd, but SAS...

Re: HDD whining Ben Cartwright-Cox via NANOG (Sep 26)
In practice now, the moment you use enterprise drives (and for the love of god update the drive firmware when you first
deploy them) modern SSDs are both increadibly hardy (in terms of endurance) and don't do the "fail at the same time"
thing that a lot of people remember from the older days

If you use consumer grade drives with constant server-like workloads, yeah don't be surprised when they die young, the

Re: HDD whining Crist Clark via NANOG (Sep 26)
As I understand it, the pressure on HDDs is indirect because of the
shortage and higher costs of SSDs as the memory for SSD gets diverted into
the AI race.

That is, lots of people who would have bought SSD, are buying HDD since the
price delta on a per GB-basis between SSD and HDD has been /increasing/.

Re: HDD whining Nigel Titley via NANOG (Sep 26)
Randy has already mentioned the difficulty in getting 20TB SSDs, but
there are other good reasons for not, for example, using SSDs in a RAID
array... like, unlike HDDs, they tend to all fail at once. I don't know
if he's using them with MD5 RAID but that's another good reason for
continuing to use spinning rust.
