Re: Chunked Encoding (bug?) in http.lua

Hi Ron, Patrick, nmap-dev

The fix for pipeline requests with chunked encoding is almost fixed.
Actually I´ve finished coding it, and David helped me with testing it.
I´m travelling right now and that´s why I didn´t commit the code to
the main trunk so far. I´m really sorry about that, but next monday
I´ll be at home and I´ll do it.

If you guys are interested in testing it (what would be really great),
the fixed code is in nmap-exp/joao/experimental/. I´m not sure that
the version of the http.lua in this branch is the latest.

Thanks a lot guys,
João

Hi list,

I ran into this problem while trying to get the root webpage of
www.youtube.com (demo script attached):

batrick@batbytes:~/nmap/svn/nmap$ ./nmap --datadir . -v -d -n -PN -p
80 www.youtube.com --script chunked-test.nse

Hi Patrick,

Although I'm not 100% sure about this particular error message, I can tell
you that Nmap's chunked encoding is pretty buggy right now. Specifically,
it's using regular expressions where it shouldn't be, and on occasion the
wrong thing is being matched. Joao has been working on bringing it up to
par, but it isn't quite ready yet.

Ron
