About ListZenmap wrong ptr Scott Mayoral (Feb 04)
Hello,
While using zenmap (Mac OS) and ran a number of scans on the ip 165.232.151.85 (my client's server which I manage) and
the ptr returned is cr1osbydoe.com <http://cr1osbydoe.com/> When I run a dig -x on the terminal, the correct ptr
appears (hncda.livinginarchitecture.org <http://livinginarchitecture.org/>), same correct results from nmap proper on
my PC, as well as on the PC command line. crosbydoe . com is a url on...
Re: NMAP Scan help Jon Gorenflo (Feb 04)
Seeing JavaScript comments during an NMAP scan can indeed be a concern for clients with proprietary information. The
best way to protect this information is to not include it in the source code of the website. If it is absolutely
necessary to include it, it can be obfuscated to make it more difficult for an attacker to understand, but it cannot be
completely protected from being seen during a scan.

PR: NSE Script: Oracle NNE Crypto Parameter Enumeration Moritz Bechler via dev (Feb 04)
Hello,
a while back I did some reversing and security analysis on Oracle database's
proprietary transport security protocol (NNE/SNS).
Based on that research I have put together a NSE script that determines the
NNE server parameters/configuration and identify weak/vulnerable instances.
Happy to contribute that to nmap, I have opened a PR: https://github.com/nmap/nmap/pull/2603

Proposal for a new feature to Ncat codergaz (Feb 04)
Hello,
First of all, I wanted to thank you for your work in developing great software. I use Ncat on a daily basis and it is a

A very useful feature would be for Ncat messages to have a timestamp, to know when connections have been established.

Possible minor erros in nmap-os-db João Medeiros (Dec 23)
Hi.
I was parsing nmap-os-db for research purposes and found 3 empty
entries of the OPS field. I'm using the current version in the SVN

Updated version of RadialNet João Medeiros (Dec 22)
Good morning, dear friends.
I would like to share that I've updated the RadialNet tool [1] to work

any bug I did not notice.
To test you may execute a Scan using Nmap as a backend tool (initially
assumed to be on /usr/bin/nmap, but can be changed in config.cfg). You
may also test it loading any Nmap XML output file (a sample is
included in share/sample/nmap_example.xml)....

Dear Nmap community,
Twenty five years ago today, I released the first version of Nmap in a
Phrack article named The Art of Port Scanning (https://nmap.org/p51-11.html).
I never thought I'd still be at it a quarter of a century later, but that's
because I also didn't anticipate such a wonderful community of users and
contributors spanning those decades. You've helped Nmap blossom from a
fairly simple port scanner to a...

Re: double-free vulnerability in OpenSSH server 9.1 (CVE-2023-25136) Qualys Security Advisory (Feb 13)
Hi all,
Quick update: we were able to gain arbitrary control of the "rip"
register through this bug (i.e., we can jump wherever we want in sshd's
address space) on an unpatched installation of OpenBSD 7.2 (which runs
OpenSSH 9.1 by default). This is by no means the end of the story: this
was only step 1, bypass the malloc and double-free protections. The next
steps, which may or may not be feasible at all, are:

Looks like coherent 100G in the QSFP28 form factor is finally on the horizon.
From the datasheet:

Re: Namecheap's outbound email flow compromised: valid rdns, spf, dkim and dmarc on phishes Michael Thomas (Feb 12)
It makes you wonder why they just don't rekey and put up a different
selector while deleting the compromised selector?
Yes, this is bad but it has a straightforward solution to the compromise
-- unlike compromised cert signing keys, natch.

Re: Namecheap's outbound email flow compromised: valid rdns, spf, dkim and dmarc on phishes Eric Kuhnke (Feb 12)
Namecheap has updated their status page item to include

Devices’ verification, and Password Reset emails, etc.)"
Yikes.
Re: Namecheap's outbound email flow compromised: valid rdns, spf, dkim and dmarc on phishes Michael Thomas (Feb 12)
I think that it might be appropriate to name and shame the third party,
since they should know better too. It almost has the whiff of a scam.

Re: Namecheap's outbound email flow compromised: valid rdns, spf, dkim and dmarc on phishes Eric Kuhnke (Feb 12)
One very possible theory is that whoever runs the outbound marketing
communications and email newsletter demanded the keys and got them, with
execs overriding security experts at Namecheap who know better.
I would sincerely hope that the people whose job titles at Namecheap
include anything related to network engineering, network security or
cryptography at that company do know better. Large domain registrars are
not supposed to make such a...
Re: Namecheap's outbound email flow compromised: valid rdns, spf, dkim and dmarc on phishes Michael Thomas (Feb 12)
If they actually gave them their own private keys, they clearly don't
get how that's supposed to work with DKIM. The right thing to do is
create a new selector with the third party's signing key. Private keys
should be kept... private.
