Jay's Status Report #7 of 13

[Jay Bosamiya <jaybosamiya () gmail com>]

Hi All!

This is the report for week 7.
I am submitting this report a bit late because I was away on the trip
(as mentioned in the previous report).

Achievements:

  * Further analyzed the patch to catch Zenmap's MemoryError. Finally
    committed the patch as revision 33140.
  * Added the --exclude-ports option to Nmap. (Committed as revision
    33161,33162)
  * Sent in a patch for improving Nmap's OS detection in cases where
    "tcpwrapped" is detected. (Thread at [1]).

Priorities:

  * Improve upon the Zenmap topology noise patch [2]. Dan has given some
    great feedback in the last IRC meeting (such as maintaining number
    of hops, etc.)
  * Work on the --forget-after option patch. Fyodor has given some great
    points for improvement [3].
  * Work on how to make the NSE "version" scripts obey the version
    intensity setting.
  * Document the newly added features.

Cheers,
Jay
