Nmap Changelog ($Id: CHANGELOG 21562 2010-12-29 21:24:53Z david $); -*-text-*-o [NSE] Created an ftp.lua library. [David]o [NSE] Added gopher-ls.nse by Toni Ruotto, which lists the root of a Gopher server.o [NSE] Added modbus-discover.nse by Alexander Rudakov. This script enumerates Modbus slave ids and then tries to find device information about each of them.o [NSE] Added scripts by Toni Ruotto communicating with the NetBus remote administration/backdoor program. - netbus-info: gets configuration information. - netbus-brute: guesses passwords. - netbus-version: distinguishes NetBus from NetBuster, a program that mimics the protocol but doesn't actually allow any operations. - netbus-auth-bypass: Checks for a bug in the server that allows connecting without a password.o [NSE] Added stuxnet-detect.nse by Mak Kolybabi, which detects infections of the Sutxnet worm and can optionally download the Stuxnet executable.o [NSE] Added a new iSCSI library and the two scripts iscsi-info and iscsi-brute. [Patrik]o [NSE] Add new script broadcast-ms-sql-discover and removed broadcast support from ms-sql-info. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added the ftp-proftpd-backdoor.nse script by Mak Kolybabi, which checks for a backdoor in ProFTPD 1.3.3c. Michael Meyer tested the script and contributed some patches.o [NSE] Added http-vhosts.nse from Carlos Pantelides. This script brute-forces virtual hosts by sending different Host headers to the same server.o [Ncat] Ncat now uses case-insensitive string comparison when checking authentication schemes and parameters. Florian Roth found a server offering "BASIC" instead of "Basic", and the HTTP RFC requires case-insensitive comparisons in most places. [David]o [NSE] Added the hddtemp-info script from Toni Ruotto, which gets hard drive temperatures from the hddtemp service.o [NSE] There is now a limit of 1,000 concurrent running scripts, instituted to keep memory under control when there are many open ports. Nathan reported 3 GB of memory use (with an out-of-memory NSE crash) for one host with tens of thousands of open ports. This limit can be controlled with the variable CONCURRENCY_LIMIT in nse_main.lua. [David]o The command line in XML output (/nmaprun/@args attribute) now does quoting of whitespace using double quotes and backslashes. This allows recovering the original command line array even when arguments contain whitespace. [David]o XML output now excludes output for down hosts when doing host discovery only, except in verbose mode. This is how it already worked for normal scans, but the ping-only case was overlooked. [David]o [NSE] Added a new Web Service Dynamic Discovery library (wsdd) and the two scripts broadcast-wsdd-discover and wsdd-discover. [Patrik]o [Zenmap] Upgraded to the newer gtk.Tooltip API to avoid deprecation messages about gtk.Tooltip. [Rob Nicholls]o Updated the Windows build process to work with (and require) Visual C++ 2010 rather than 2008. If you want to build Zenmap too, you now need Python 2.7 (rather than 2.6) and GTK+ 2.22. See http://nmap.org/book/inst-windows.html#inst-win-source [David, Rob Nicholls, KX]o [NSE] Added a new library upnp that provides UPnP support to the scripts upnp-info and broadcast-upnp-info. The library is largely based on code taken from Thomas Buchanan's upnp-info script. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added a new library dnssd with supporting functions for DNS Service Discovery. Moved multicast prerule from dns-service-discovery to a new script called broadcast-dns-service-discovery. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added the rmi-dumpregistry script, which shows the contents of Java RMI registry. [Martin Holst Swende]o [NSE] Added the ssh2-enum-algos script which reports the number of algorithms the target SSH2 server supports, by type. If verbosity is set, then the offered algorithms are listed. Output is reduced for identical "client to server" and "server to client" lists by using a single combined list. [Kris]o [NSE] Made dns-zone-transfer script able to add new discovered DNS records onto Nmap scanning queue. [Djalal]o [NSE] Added reporting of the type and bit size of certificate public keys to ssl-cert.nse. [Matt Selsky]o [NSE] Added the db2-discover script. This can find DB2 servers by sending a UDP broadcast. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added the hostmap script by Ange Gutek. This uses a third-party database to look up other hostnames mapping to the target.o [NSE] Added the ability to send and receive on unconnected sockets. This can be used, for example, to receive UDP broadcasts without using pcap. A number of scripts have been changed so that they can work as prerule scripts to discover services by UDP broadcasting, optionally add the discovered targets to the scanning queue: - ms-sql-info - upnp-info - dns-service-discovery The nmap.new_socket function can now optionally take a default protocol and address family, which will be used if the socket is not connected. There is a new nmap.sendto function to be used with unconnected UDP sockets. [David, Patrik]o [NSE] Improved ssh2's kex_init() parameters: all of the algorithm and language lists can be set using new keys in the "options" table argument. These all default to the same value used before. Also, the required "cookie" argument is now replaced by an optional "cookie" key in the "options" table, defaulting to random bytes as the RFC says the value should be. [Kris]o Ncat now logs Nsock debug output to stderr instead of stdout, like its other debug messages. [David]o Updated to the latest config.guess and config.sub. Thanks to Ty Miller for a reminder. [David]o [NSE] Added nat-pmp-info script that uses the nat-pmp service to discover the external IP address of a router. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added prerule support to snmp-interfaces and the ability to add the host's interface addresses to the scanning queue. The new script arguments used for this functionality are "host" (required) and "port" (optional). [Kris]o [NSE] Added the resolveall prerule script which takes a table of target names as a "hosts" argument and adds all of the resolved addresses (IPv4 or IPv6, depending on Nmap's -6 option) for all of the hosts to the scanning queue. [Kris]o Fixed some inconsistencies in nmap-os-db and a small memory leak that would happen where there was more than one round of OS detection. These were reported by Xavier Sudre from netVigilance, Inc.o [NSE] Fixed a bug with worker threads calling the wrong destructors. Fixing this allows better parallelism in http-brute.nse. The problem was reported by Patrik Karlsson. [David, Patrick]o [Zenmap] Made the topology node radiuses grow logarithmically instead of linearly, so that hosts with thousands of open ports don't overwhelm the diagram. Also only open ports (not open|filtered) are considered when calculating node sizes. Henri Doreau found and fixed a bug in the implementation. [Daniel Miller]o Increased the initial RTT timeout for ARP scans from 100 ms to 200 ms. Some wireless and VPN links were taking around 300 ms to respond. The default of one retransmit gives them 400 ms to be detected.o Upgraded the OpenSSL binaries shipped in our Windows installer to version 1.0.0a. [David]o [NSE] Added the targets-traceroute script, which inserts traceroute hops onto Nmap scanning queue. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Added the target NSE library to let scripts to add new discovered targets onto Nmap scanning queue. This feature, coupled with the new prerule is well suited for NSE host discovery. [Djalal]o [NSE] Added a prerule support to dns-zone-transfer script, which lets the script to run during the script pre-scanning phase to perform DNS zone transfer discovery operations when the necessary script arguments are given. [Djalal]o [NSE] Nmap now have three different NSE script scan phases. The first one is the script pre-scanning phase, which will run before any Nmap scan operation. Scripts during this phase are activated by the new rule prerule. The second phase is the classic script scan one, which will run for every host group. Scripts during this phase are activated by the classic portrules and hostrules. The third phase is the script post-scanning one, which will run after all Nmap scan operations. Scripts are activated during this phase by the new rule postrule. [Djalal]o Changed the name of libdnet's sctp_chunkhdr to avoid a conflict with a struct of the same name in <netinet/sctp.h>. This caused a compiliation error when Nmap was compiled with an OpenSSL that had SCTP support. [Olli Hauer, Daniel Roethlisberger]o [NSE] Added the firewalk script, which tries to find whether a firewall blocks or forwards ports like the firewalk tool does. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Host tables now have a host.traceroute member when --traceroute is used. This array contains the IP address, reverse DNS name, and RTT for each traceroute hop. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Made the ftp-anon script return a directory listing when anonymous login is allowed. [Gutek, David]o [NSE] Added the nmap.resolve() function which takes a host name and optionally an address family (such as "inet") and returns a table containing all of its matching addresses. If no address family is specified, then all of the addresses are returned for the name. [Kris]o [NSE] Added the nmap.address_family() function which returns the address family Nmap is using as a string (e.g., "inet6" is returned if Nmap is called with the -6 option). [Kris]o [NSE] Added the path-mtu script to perform Path MTU Discovery to the target host using TCP or UDP. The script tries to conserve bandwidth and time by starting with the outgoing interface's MTU and properly handling the Next-Hop MTU field in ICMP responses generated by RFC-compliant intermediate routers. [Kris]o [NSE] Scripts can now access the MTU of the host.interface device using host.interface_mtu. [Kris]o Nmap now prints the MTU for interfaces when using --iflist. [Kris]o [NSE] Removed references to MD2, as OpenSSL 1.x.x doesn't support it anymore [alexandru]o [NSE] Added GIOP library and a small script that makes use of it: - giop-info Queries the CORBA naming server for a list of objects [Patrik]o [NSE] Added a Oracle TNS library and two new scripts that make use of it. The scripts are: - oracle-brute uses the brute and tns library to perform password guessing - oracle-enum-users attempts to determine valid Oracle user names [Patrik]o [NSE] Added a smallish Lotus Domino rpc library (nrpc.lua) and some Lotus Domino oriented scripts: - domino-enum-users guesses users and attempts to download ID files by exploiting (CVE-2006-5835). - domino-enum-passwords attempts to download Internet passwords and ID files from the web server. - domcon-brute performs password guessing against the remote console. - domcon-cmd adds support for running custom remote console commands. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added an Informix library and three scripts that make use of it: - informix-brute uses the brute framework to perform password guessing - informix-query add support for running SQL queries against Informix - informix-tables lists table- and column-names for a given database [Patrik]o [NSE] Added two new scripts http-brute.nse and http-form-brute that attempt to perform password guessing against web servers and applications. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added svn-brute, which attempts to perform password guessing against the subversion service. [Patrik]o [NSE] The nmap.connect function can now accept host and port tables (like those provided to the action function) in place of a string and a number. The motivation behind this is to easily support Server Name Indication for SSL sockets by reading host.targetname. [David Fifield]o [NSE] Added wdb-version, which discovers information from a VxWorks debug service that is often left open. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Added one script (vnc-brute) that performs password guessing against VNC using the new brute library and another (vnc-info) that lists supported security mechanisms. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added a new brute library that provides a basic framework and logic for password guessing scripts. [Patrik]o [NSE] Renamed db2-info and db2-brute scripts to drda-*. Updated script and library to reflect name change. Added support other DRDA based databases such as IBM Informix Dynamic Server and Apache Derby. [Patrik]o [Nsock] Added a new function, nsi_set_hostname, to set the intended hostname of the target. This allows the use of Server Name Indication in SSL connections. This was suggested by Nuno Goncalves. [David]o [NSE] Added default limits on the number of ports that qscan will scan. By default, it will do upt o 8 open ports and up to 1 closed port. These limits can be controlled with the qscan.numopen and qscan.numclosed script arguments. [David]o [NSE] Made sslv2.nse give special output when SSLv2 is supported, but no SSLv2 ciphers are offered. This happened with a specific Sendmail configuration. [Matt Selsky]o [NSE] Added a "times" table to the host table passed to scripts. This table contains Nmap's timing data (srtt, the smoothed round trip time; rttvar, the rtt variance; and timeout), all represented as floating-point seconds. The ipidseq and qscan scripts were updated to utilize the host's timeout value instead of the very conservative guess of 3 seconds for read timeouts. [Kris]o [Nmap, Nping] Fixed the fragmentation options (-f in Nmap, --mtu in both) which broke in 5.35DC1. Instead of sending multiple fragments, the original packet was sent whole. In some circumstances, sending would fail on interfaces with low MTUs (such as SLIP lines) with no way to bump down packet sizes for transport. [Kris]o [NSE] The http library's request functions now accept an additional "auth" table within the option table, which if provided causes Basic authentication credentials to be sent. [David]o [NSE] When receiving raw packets from Pcap, the packet capture time is now available to scripts as an additional return value from pcap_receive(). It is returned as the floating point number of seconds since the epoch. [Kris]o [NSE] Added the nmap.clock() function which returns the current time as floating point seconds since the epoch. Convenience functions clock_ms() and clock_us() were added to stdnse to return the current time in milliseconds and microseconds, respectively. [Kris]o [NSE] The qscan.nse script was updated to use the more accurate timing data from pcap_receive() and clock() to provide microsecond resolution for round-trip times. [Kris]o [Zenmap] Fixed a crash that would happen after opening the search window, entering a relative date criterion such as "after:-7", and then clicking the "Expressions" button. The error message was AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'strftime' [David]o [zenmap] Added a new Script selection Interface. This interface is present under the "Scripting" tab of profile editor. Besides selecting script,argument values can also be given. Description and categories of script is also shown. [kirubakaran]o Updated IANA IP address space assignment list for random IP (-iR) generation. [Kris]
# Nmap Changelog ($Id: CHANGELOG 21916 2011-01-21 09:43:36Z fyodor $); -*-text-*-o [Zenmap] Added a new script selection interface, allowing you to choose scripts and arguments from a list which includes descriptions of every available script. Just click the "Scripting" tab in the profile editor. [Kirubakaran]o [Nping] Added echo mode, a novel technique for discovering how your packets are changed (or dropped) in transit between the host they originated and a target machine. It can detect network address translation, packet filtering, routing anomalies, and more. You can try it out against our public Nping echo server using this command: nping --echo-client "public" echo.nmap.org' Or learn more about echo mode at http://nmap.org/book/nping-man-echo-mode.html. [Luis]o [NSE] Added an amazing 46 scripts, bringing the total to 177! You can learn more about any of them at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/. Here are the new ones (authors listed in brackets): broadcast-dns-service-discovery: Attempts to discover hosts' services using the DNS Service Discovery protocol. It sends a multicast DNS-SD query and collects all the responses. [Patrik Karlsson] broadcast-dropbox-listener: Listens for the LAN sync information broadcasts that the Dropbox.com client broadcasts every 20 seconds, then prints all the discovered client IP addresses, port numbers, version numbers, display names, and more. [Ron Bowes, Mak Kolybabi, Andrew Orr, Russ Tait Milne] broadcast-ms-sql-discover: Discovers Microsoft SQL servers in the same broadcast domain. [Patrik Karlsson] broadcast-upnp-info: Attempts to extract system information from the UPnP service by sending a multicast query, then collecting, parsing, and displaying all responses. [Patrik Karlsson] broadcast-wsdd-discover: Uses a multicast query to discover devices supporting the Web Services Dynamic Discovery (WS-Discovery) protocol. It also attempts to locate any published Windows Communication Framework (WCF) web services (.NET 4.0 or later). [Patrik Karlsson] db2-discover: Attempts to discover DB2 servers on the network by querying open ibm-db2 UDP ports (normally port 523). [Patrik Karlsson] dns-update.nse: Attempts to perform an unauthenticated dynamic DNS update. [Patrik Karlsson] domcon-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against the Lotus Domino Console. [Patrik Karlsson] domcon-cmd: Runs a console command on the Lotus Domino Console with the given authentication credentials (see also: domcon-brute). [Patrik Karlsson] domino-enum-users: Attempts to discover valid IBM Lotus Domino users and download their ID files by exploiting the CVE-2006-5835 vulnerability. [Patrik Karlsson] firewalk: Tries to discover firewall rules using an IP TTL expiration technique known as firewalking. [Henri Doreau] ftp-proftpd-backdoor: Tests for the presence of the ProFTPD 1.3.3c backdoor reported as OSVDB-ID 69562. This script attempts to exploit the backdoor using the innocuous id command by default, but that can be changed with a script argument. [Mak Kolybabi] giop-info: Queries a CORBA naming server for a list of objects. [Patrik Karlsson] gopher-ls: Lists files and directories at the root of a gopher service. Remember those? [Toni Ruottu] hddtemp-info: Reads hard disk information (such as brand, model, and sometimes temperature) from a listening hddtemp service. [Toni Ruottu] hostmap: Tries to find hostnames that resolve to the target's IP address by querying the online database at http://www.bfk.de/bfk_dnslogger.html. [Ange Gutek] http-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against http basic authentication. [Patrik Karlsson] http-domino-enum-passwords: Attempts to enumerate the hashed Domino Internet Passwords that are (by default) accessible by all authenticated users. This script can also download any Domino ID Files attached to the Person document. [Patrik Karlsson] http-form-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against http form-based authentication. [Patrik Karlsson] http-vhosts: Searches for web virtual hostnames by making a large number of HEAD requests against http servers using common hostnames. [Carlos Pantelides] informix-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against IBM Informix Dynamic Server. [Patrik Karlsson] informix-query: Runs a query against IBM Informix Dynamic Server using the given authentication credentials (see also: informix-brute). [Patrik Karlsson] informix-tables: Retrieves a list of tables and column definitions for each database on an Informix server. [Patrik Karlsson] iscsi-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against iSCSI targets. [Patrik Karlsson] iscsi-info: Collects and displays information from remote iSCSI targets. [Patrik Karlsson] modbus-discover: Enumerates SCADA Modbus slave ids (sids) and collects their device information. [Alexander Rudakov] nat-pmp-info: Queries a NAT-PMP service for its external address. [Patrik Karlsson] netbus-auth-bypass: Checks if a NetBus server is vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability which allows full access without knowing the password. [Toni Ruottu] netbus-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against the Netbus backdoor ("remote administration") service. [Toni Ruottu] netbus-info: Opens a connection to a NetBus server and extracts information about the host and the NetBus service itself. [Toni Ruottu] netbus-version: Extends version detection to detect NetBuster, a honeypot service that mimes NetBus. [Toni Ruottu] nrpe-enum: Queries Nagios Remote Plugin Executor (NRPE) daemons to obtain information such as load averages, process counts, logged in user information, etc. [Mak Kolybabi] oracle-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against Oracle servers. [Patrik Karlsson] oracle-enum-users: Attempts to enumerate valid Oracle user names against unpatched Oracle 11g servers (this bug was fixed in Oracle's October 2009 Critical Patch Update). [Patrik Karlsson] path-mtu: Performs simple Path MTU Discovery to target hosts. [Kris Katterjohn] resolveall: Resolves hostnames and adds every address (IPv4 or IPv6, depending on Nmap mode) to Nmap's target list. This differs from Nmap's normal host resolution process, which only scans the first address (A or AAAA record) returned for each host name. [Kris Katterjohn] rmi-dumpregistry: Connects to a remote RMI registry and attempts to dump all of its objects. [Martin Holst Swende] smb-flood: Exhausts a remote SMB server's connection limit by by opening as many connections as we can. Most implementations of SMB have a hard global limit of 11 connections for user accounts and 10 connections for anonymous. Once that limit is reached, further connections are denied. This script exploits that limit by taking up all the connections and holding them. [Ron Bowes] ssh2-enum-algos: Reports the number of algorithms (for encryption, compression, etc.) that the target SSH2 server offers. If verbosity is set, the offered algorithms are each listed by type. [Kris Katterjohn] stuxnet-detect: Detects whether a host is infected with the Stuxnet worm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet). [Mak Kolybabi] svn-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against Subversion source code control servers. [Patrik Karlsson] targets-traceroute: Inserts traceroute hops into the Nmap scanning queue. It only functions if Nmap's --traceroute option is used and the newtargets script argument is given. [Henri Doreau] vnc-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against VNC servers. [Patrik Karlsson] vnc-info: Queries a VNC server for its protocol version and supported security types. [Patrik Karlsson] wdb-version: Detects vulnerabilities and gathers information (such as version numbers and hardware support) from VxWorks Wind DeBug agents. [Daniel Miller] wsdd-discover: Retrieves and displays information from devices supporting the Web Services Dynamic Discovery (WS-Discovery) protocol. It also attempts to locate any published Windows Communication Framework (WCF) web services (.NET 4.0 or later). [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Added 12 new protocol libraries: - dhcp.lua by Ron - dnssd.lua (DNS Service Discovery) by Patrik - ftp.lua by David - giop.lua (CORBA naming service) by Patrik - informix.lua (Informix database) by Patrik - iscsi.lua (iSCSI - IP based SCSI data transfer) by Patrik - nrpc.lua (Lotus Domino RPC) by Patrik - rmi.lua (Java Remote Method Invocation) by Martin Holst Swende - tns.lua (Oracle) by Patrik - upnp.lua (UPnP support) by Thomas Buchanan and Patrik - vnc.lua (Virtual Network Computing) by Patrik - wsdd.lua (Web Service Dynamic Discovery) by Patriko [NSE] Added a new brute library that provides a basic framework and logic for brute force password auditing scripts. [Patrik]o [Zenmap] Greatly improved performance for large scans by benchmarking intensively and then recoding dozens of slow parts. Time taken to load our benchmark file (a scan of just over a million IPs belonging to Microsoft corporation, with 74,293 hosts up) was reduced from hours to less than two minutes. Memory consumption decreased dramatically as well. [David]o Performed a major OS detection integration run. The database has grown more than 14% to 2,982 fingerprints and many of the existing fingerprints were improved. Highlights include Linux 2.6.37, iPhone OS 4.2.1, Solaris 11, AmigaOS 3.1, GNU Hurd 0.3, and MINIX 2.0.4. David posted highlights of his integration work at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/651o Performed a huge version detection integration run. The number of signatures has grown by more than 11% to 7,355. More than a third of our signatures are for http, but we also detect 743 other service protocols, from abc, acap, access-remote-pc, and achat to zenworks, zeo, and zmodem. David posted highlights at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/761.o [NSE] Added the target NSE library which allows scripts to add newly discovered targets to Nmap's scanning queue. This allows Nmap to support a wide range of target acquisition techniques. Scripts which can now use this feature include dns-zone-transfer, hostmap, ms-sql-info, snmp-interfaces, targets-traceroute, and several more. [Djalal]o [NSE] Nmap has two new NSE script scanning phases. The new pre-scan occurs before Nmap starts scanning. Some of the initial pre-scan scripts use techniques like broadcast DNS service discovery or DNS zone transfers to enumerate hosts which can optionally be treated as targets. The other phase (post scan) runs after all of Nmap's scanning is complete. We don't have any of these scripts yet, but they could compile scan statistics or present the results in a different way. One idea is a reverse index which provides a list of services discovered during a network scan, along with a list of IPs found to be running each service. See http://nmap.org/book/nse-usage.html#nse-script-types. [Djalal]o Dramatically improved nmap.xsl (used for converting Nmap XML output to HTML). In particular: - Put verbose details behind expander buttons so you can see them if you want, but they don't distract from the main output. In particular, offline hosts and traceroute results are collapsed by default. - Improved the color scheme to be less garish. - Added support for the new NSE pre-scan and post-scan phases. - Changed script output to use 'pre' tags to keep even lengthy output readable. - Added a floating menu to the lower-right for toggling whether closed/filtered ports are shown or not (they are now hidden by default if Javascript is enabled). Many smaller improvements were made as well. You can find the new file at http://nmap.org/svn/docs/nmap.xsl, and here is an example scan processed through it: http://nmap.org/tmp/newxsl.html. [Tom]o [NSE] Created a new "broadcast" script category for the broadcast-* scripts. These perform network discovery by broadcasting on the local network and listening for responses. Since they don't directly relate to targets specified on the command line, these are kept out of the default category (nor do they go in "discovery").o Integrated cracked passwords from the Gawker.com compromise (http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/674) into Nmap's top-5000 password database. A team of Nmap developers lead by Brandon Enright has cracked 635,546 out of 748,081 password hashes so far (85%). Gawker doesn't exactly have the most sophisticated users on the Internet--their top passwords are "123456", "password", "12345678", "lifehack", "qwerty", "abc123", "12345", "monkey", "111111", "consumer", and "letmein".o XML output now excludes output for down hosts when only doing host discovery, unless verbosity (-v) was requested. This is how it already worked for normal scans, but the ping-only case was overlooked. [David]o Updated the Windows build process to work with (and require) Visual C++ 2010 rather than 2008. If you want to build Zenmap too, you now need Python 2.7 (rather than 2.6) and GTK+ 2.22. See http://nmap.org/book/inst-windows.html#inst-win-source [David, Rob Nicholls, KX]o Merged port names in the nmap-services file with allocated names from the IANA (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers). We only added IANA names which were "unknown" in our file--we didn't deal with conflicting names. [David]o Enabled the ASLR and DEP security technologies for Nmap.exe, Ncat.exe and Nping.exe on Windows Vista and above. Visual C++ will set the /DYNAMICBASE and /NXCOMPAT flags in the PE header. Executables generated using py2exe or NSIS and third party binaries (OpenSSL, WinPcap) still don't support ASLR or DEP. Support for DEP on XP SP3, using SetProcessDEPPolicy(), could still be implemented. See http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/328. [Robert]o Investigated using the CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) standard for describing operating systems, devices, and service names for Nmap OS and service detection. You can read David's reports at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/278 and http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/303.o [Zenmap] Improved the output viewer to show new output in constant time. Previously it would get slower and slower as the output grew longer, eventually making Zenmap appear to freeze with 100% CPU. Rob Nicholls and Ray Middleton helped with testing. [David]o The Linux RPM builds of Nmap and related tools (ncat, nping, etc.) now link to system libraries dynamically rather than statically. They still link statically to dependency libraries such as OpenSSL, Lua, LibPCRE, Libpcap, etc. We hope this will improve portability so the RPMs will work on distributions with older software (like RHEL, Debian stable) as well as more bleeding edge ones like Fedora. [David]o [NSE] Added the ability to send and receive on unconnected sockets. This can be used, for example, to receive UDP broadcasts without having to use Libpcap. A number of scripts have been changed so that they can work as prerule scripts to discover services by UDP broadcasting, and optionally add the discovered targets to the scanning queue: - ms-sql-info - upnp-info - dns-service-discovery The nmap.new_socket function can now optionally take a default protocol and address family, which will be used if the socket is not connected. There is a new nmap.sendto function to be used with unconnected UDP sockets. [David, Patrik]o [Nping] Substantially improved the Nping man page. You can read it online at http://nmap.org/book/nping-man.html. [Luis, David]o Documented the licenses of the third-party software used by Nmap and it's sibling tools: http://nmap.org/svn/docs/3rd-party-licenses.txt. [David]o [NSE] Improved the SMB scripts so that they can run in parallel rather than using a mutex to force serialization. This quadrupled the SMB scan speed in one large scale test. See http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/819. [Ron]o Added a simple Nmap NSE script template to make writing new scripts easier: http://nmap.org/svn/docs/sample-script.nse. [Ron]o [Zenmap] Made the topology node radiuses grow logarithmically instead of linearly, so that hosts with thousands of open ports don't overwhelm the diagram. Also only open ports (not open|filtered) are considered when calculating node sizes. Henri Doreau found and fixed a bug in the implementation. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Added the get_script_args NSE function for parsing script arguments in a clean and standardized way (http://nmap.org/nsedoc/lib/stdnse.html#get_script_args). [Djalal]o Increased the initial RTT timeout for ARP scans from 100 ms to 200 ms. Some wireless and VPN links were taking around 300 ms to respond. The default of one retransmission gives them 400 ms to be detected.o Added new version detection probes and signatures from Patrik for: - Lotus Domino Console running on tcp/2050 (shows OS and hostname) - IBM Informix Dynamic Server running native protocol (shows hostname, and file path) - Database servers running the DRDA protocol - IBM Websphere MQ (shows name of queue-manager and channel)o Fix Nmap compilation on OpenSolaris (see http://blogs.sun.com/sdaven/entry/nmap_5_35dc1_compile_on) [David]o [NSE] The http library's request functions now accept an additional "auth" table within the option table, which causes Basic authentication credentials to be sent. [David]o Improved IPv6 host output in that we now remember and report the forward DNS name (given by the user) and any non-scanned addresses (usually because of round robin DNS). We already did this for IPv4. [David]o [Zenmap] Upgraded to the newer gtk.Tooltip API to avoid deprecation messages about gtk.Tooltip. [Rob Nicholls]o [NSE] Made dns-zone-transfer script able to add new discovered DNS records to the Nmap scanning queue. [Djalal]o [NSE] Enhance ssl-cert to also report the type and bit size of SSL certificate public keys [Matt Selsky]o [Ncat] Make --exec and --idle-timeout work when connecting with --proxy. Florian Roth reported the bug. [David]o [Nping] Fixed a bug which caused Nping to fail when targeting broadcast addresses (see http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/752). [Luis]o [Nping] Nping now limits concurrent open file descriptors properly based on the resources available on the host (see http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/2). [Luis]o [NSE] Improved ssh2's kex_init() parameters: all of the algorithm and language lists can be set using new keys in the "options" table argument. These all default to the same value used before. Also, the required "cookie" argument is now replaced by an optional "cookie" key in the "options" table, defaulting to random bytes as suggested by the RFC. [Kris]o Ncat now logs Nsock debug output to stderr instead of stdout for consistency with its other debug messages. [David]o [NSE] Added a new function, shortport.http, for HTTP script portrules and changed 14 scripts to use it. [David]o Updated to the latest config.guess and config.sub. Thanks to Ty Miller for a reminder. [David]o [NSE] Added prerule support to snmp-interfaces and the ability to add the remote host's interface addresses to the scanning queue. The new script arguments used for this functionality are "host" (required) and "port" (optional). [Kris]o Fixed some inconsistencies in nmap-os-db and a small memory leak that would happen where there was more than one round of OS detection. These were reported by Xavier Sudre from netVigilance. [David]o [NSE] Fixed a bug with worker threads calling the wrong destructors. Fixing this allows better parallelism in http-brute.nse. The problem was reported by Patrik Karlsson. [David, Patrick]o Upgraded the OpenSSL binaries shipped in our Windows installer to version 1.0.0a. [David]o [NSE] Added prerule support to the dns-zone-transfer script, allowing it to run early to discover IPs from DNS records and optionally add those IPs to Nmap's target queue. You must specify the DNS server and domain name to use with script arguments. [Djalal]o Changed the name of libdnet's sctp_chunkhdr to avoid a conflict with a struct of the same name in <netinet/sctp.h>. This caused a compilation error when Nmap was compiled with an OpenSSL that had SCTP support. [Olli Hauer, Daniel Roethlisberger]o [NSE] Implemented a big cleanup of the Nmap NSE Nsock library binding code. [Patrick]o Added a bunch of Apple and Netatalk AFP service detection signatures. These often provide extra details such as whether the target is a MacBook Pro, Air, Mac Mini, iMac, etc. [Brandon]o [NSE] Host tables now have a host.traceroute member available when --traceroute is used. This array contains the IP address, reverse DNS name, and RTT for each traceroute hop. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Made the ftp-anon script return a directory listing when anonymous login is allowed. [Gutek, David]o [NSE] Added the nmap.resolve() function. It takes a host name and optionally an address family (such as "inet") and returns a table containing all of its matching addresses. If no address family is specified, all addresses for the name are returned. [Kris]o [NSE] Added the nmap.address_family() function which returns the address family Nmap is using as a string (e.g., "inet6" is returned if Nmap is called with the -6 option). [Kris]o [NSE] Scripts can now access the MTU of the host.interface device using host.interface_mtu. [Kris]o Restrict the default Windows DLL search path by removing the current directory. This adds extra protection against DLL hijacking attacks, especially if we were to add file type associations to Nmap in the future. We implement this with the SetDllDirectory function when available (Windows XP SP1 and later). Otherwise, we call SetCurrentDirectory with the directory containing the executable. [David]o Nmap now prints the MTU for interfaces in --iflist output. [Kris]o [NSE] Removed references to the MD2 algorithm, which OpenSSL 1.x.x no longer supports. [Alexandru]o [Ncat,NSE] Server Name Indication (SNI) is now supported by Ncat and Nmap NSE, allowing them to connect to servers which run multiple SSL websites on one IP address. To enable this for NSE, the nmap.connect function has been changed to accept host and port tables (like those provided to the action function) in place of a string and a number. [David]o [NSE] Renamed db2-info and db2-brute scripts to drda-*. Added support other DRDA based databases such as IBM Informix Dynamic Server and Apache Derby. [Patrik]o [Nsock] Added a new function, nsi_set_hostname, to set the intended hostname of the target. This allows the use of Server Name Indication in SSL connections. [David]o [NSE] Limits the number of ports that qscan will scan (now up to 8 open ports and up to 1 closed port by default). These limits can be controlled with the qscan.numopen and qscan.numclosed script arguments. [David]o [NSE] Made sslv2.nse give special output when SSLv2 is supported, but no SSLv2 ciphers are offered. This happened with a specific Sendmail configuration. [Matt Selsky]o [NSE] Added a "times" table to the host table passed to scripts. This table contains Nmap's timing data (srtt, the smoothed round trip time; rttvar, the rtt variance; and timeout), all represented as floating-point seconds. The ipidseq and qscan scripts were updated to utilize the host's timeout value rather than using a conservative guess of 3 seconds for read timeouts. [Kris]o Fixed the fragmentation options (-f in Nmap, --mtu in Nmap & Nping), which were improperly sending whole packets in version 5.35DC1. [Kris]o [NSE] When receiving raw packets from Pcap, the packet capture time is now available to scripts as an additional return value from pcap_receive(). It is returned as the floating point number of seconds since the epoch. Also added the nmap.clock() function which returns the current time (and convenience functions clock_ms() and clock_us()). Qscan.nse was updated to use this more accurate timing data. [Kris]o [Ncat,Nsock] Fixed some minor bugs discovered using the Smatch source code analyzer (http://smatch.sourceforge.net/). [David]o [Zenmap] Fixed a crash that would happen after opening the search window, entering a relative date criterion such as "after:-7", and then clicking the "Expressions" button. The error message was AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'strftime' [David]o Added a new packet payload--a NAT-PMP external address request for port 5351/udp. Payloads help us elicit responses from listening UDP services to better distinguish them from filtered ports. This payload goes well with our new nat-pmp-info script. [David, Patrik]o Updated IANA IP address space assignment list for random IP (-iR) generation. [Kris]o [Ncat] Ncat now uses case-insensitive string comparison when checking authentication schemes and parameters. Florian Roth found a server offering "BASIC" instead of "Basic", and the HTTP RFC requires case-insensitive comparisons in most places. [David]o [NSE] There is now a limit of 1,000 concurrent running scripts, instituted to keep memory under control when there are many open ports. Nathan reported 3 GB of memory use (with an out-of-memory NSE crash) for one host with tens of thousands of open ports. This limit can be controlled with the variable CONCURRENCY_LIMIT in nse_main.lua. [David]o The command line in XML output (/nmaprun/@args attribute) now does quoting of whitespace using double quotes and backslashes. This allows recovering the original command line array even when arguments contain whitespace. [David]o Added a service detection probe for master servers of Quake 3 and related games. [Toni Ruottu]
# Nmap Changelog ($Id: CHANGELOG 22072 2011-01-28 01:10:25Z fyodor $); -*-text-*-o [Zenmap] Added a new script selection interface, allowing you to choose scripts and arguments from a list which includes descriptions of every available script. Just click the "Scripting" tab in the profile editor. [Kirubakaran]o [Nping] Added echo mode, a novel technique for discovering how your packets are changed (or dropped) in transit between the host they originated and a target machine. It can detect network address translation, packet filtering, routing anomalies, and more. You can try it out against our public Nping echo server using this command: nping --echo-client "public" echo.nmap.org' Or learn more about echo mode at http://nmap.org/book/nping-man-echo-mode.html. [Luis]o [NSE] Added an amazing 46 scripts, bringing the total to 177! You can learn more about any of them at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/. Here are the new ones (authors listed in brackets): broadcast-dns-service-discovery: Attempts to discover hosts' services using the DNS Service Discovery protocol. It sends a multicast DNS-SD query and collects all the responses. [Patrik Karlsson] broadcast-dropbox-listener: Listens for the LAN sync information broadcasts that the Dropbox.com client broadcasts every 20 seconds, then prints all the discovered client IP addresses, port numbers, version numbers, display names, and more. [Ron Bowes, Mak Kolybabi, Andrew Orr, Russ Tait Milne] broadcast-ms-sql-discover: Discovers Microsoft SQL servers in the same broadcast domain. [Patrik Karlsson] broadcast-upnp-info: Attempts to extract system information from the UPnP service by sending a multicast query, then collecting, parsing, and displaying all responses. [Patrik Karlsson] broadcast-wsdd-discover: Uses a multicast query to discover devices supporting the Web Services Dynamic Discovery (WS-Discovery) protocol. It also attempts to locate any published Windows Communication Framework (WCF) web services (.NET 4.0 or later). [Patrik Karlsson] db2-discover: Attempts to discover DB2 servers on the network by querying open ibm-db2 UDP ports (normally port 523). [Patrik Karlsson] dns-update.nse: Attempts to perform an unauthenticated dynamic DNS update. [Patrik Karlsson] domcon-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against the Lotus Domino Console. [Patrik Karlsson] domcon-cmd: Runs a console command on the Lotus Domino Console with the given authentication credentials (see also: domcon-brute). [Patrik Karlsson] domino-enum-users: Attempts to discover valid IBM Lotus Domino users and download their ID files by exploiting the CVE-2006-5835 vulnerability. [Patrik Karlsson] firewalk: Tries to discover firewall rules using an IP TTL expiration technique known as firewalking. [Henri Doreau] ftp-proftpd-backdoor: Tests for the presence of the ProFTPD 1.3.3c backdoor reported as OSVDB-ID 69562. This script attempts to exploit the backdoor using the innocuous id command by default, but that can be changed with a script argument. [Mak Kolybabi] giop-info: Queries a CORBA naming server for a list of objects. [Patrik Karlsson] gopher-ls: Lists files and directories at the root of a gopher service. Remember those? [Toni Ruottu] hddtemp-info: Reads hard disk information (such as brand, model, and sometimes temperature) from a listening hddtemp service. [Toni Ruottu] hostmap: Tries to find hostnames that resolve to the target's IP address by querying the online database at http://www.bfk.de/bfk_dnslogger.html. [Ange Gutek] http-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against http basic authentication. [Patrik Karlsson] http-domino-enum-passwords: Attempts to enumerate the hashed Domino Internet Passwords that are (by default) accessible by all authenticated users. This script can also download any Domino ID Files attached to the Person document. [Patrik Karlsson] http-form-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against http form-based authentication. [Patrik Karlsson] http-vhosts: Searches for web virtual hostnames by making a large number of HEAD requests against http servers using common hostnames. [Carlos Pantelides] informix-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against IBM Informix Dynamic Server. [Patrik Karlsson] informix-query: Runs a query against IBM Informix Dynamic Server using the given authentication credentials (see also: informix-brute). [Patrik Karlsson] informix-tables: Retrieves a list of tables and column definitions for each database on an Informix server.

[Patrik Karlsson] modbus-discover: Enumerates SCADA Modbus slave ids (sids) and collects their device information. [Alexander Rudakov] nat-pmp-info: Queries a NAT-PMP service for its external address. [Patrik Karlsson] netbus-auth-bypass: Checks if a NetBus server is vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability which allows full access without knowing the password. [Toni Ruottu] netbus-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against the Netbus backdoor ("remote administration") service. [Toni Ruottu] netbus-info: Opens a connection to a NetBus server and extracts information about the host and the NetBus service itself. [Toni Ruottu] netbus-version: Extends version detection to detect NetBuster, a honeypot service that mimes NetBus. [Toni Ruottu] nrpe-enum: Queries Nagios Remote Plugin Executor (NRPE) daemons to obtain information such as load averages, process counts, logged in user information, etc. [Mak Kolybabi] oracle-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against Oracle servers. [Patrik Karlsson] oracle-enum-users: Attempts to enumerate valid Oracle user names against unpatched Oracle 11g servers (this bug was fixed in Oracle's October 2009 Critical Patch Update). [Patrik Karlsson] path-mtu: Performs simple Path MTU Discovery to target hosts. [Kris Katterjohn] resolveall: Resolves hostnames and adds every address (IPv4 or IPv6, depending on Nmap mode) to Nmap's target list. This differs from Nmap's normal host resolution process, which only scans the first address (A or AAAA record) returned for each host name. [Kris Katterjohn] rmi-dumpregistry: Connects to a remote RMI registry and attempts to dump all of its objects. [Martin Holst Swende] smb-flood: Exhausts a remote SMB server's connection limit by by opening as many connections as we can. Most implementations of SMB have a hard global limit of 11 connections for user accounts and 10 connections for anonymous. Once that limit is reached, further connections are denied. This script exploits that limit by taking up all the connections and holding them. [Ron Bowes] ssh2-enum-algos: Reports the number of algorithms (for encryption, compression, etc.) that the target SSH2 server offers. If verbosity is set, the offered algorithms are each listed by type. [Kris Katterjohn] stuxnet-detect: Detects whether a host is infected with the Stuxnet worm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet). [Mak Kolybabi] svn-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against Subversion source code control servers. [Patrik Karlsson] targets-traceroute: Inserts traceroute hops into the Nmap scanning queue. It only functions if Nmap's --traceroute option is used and the newtargets script argument is given. [Henri Doreau] vnc-brute: Performs brute force password auditing against VNC servers. [Patrik Karlsson] vnc-info: Queries a VNC server for its protocol version and supported security types. [Patrik Karlsson] wdb-version: Detects vulnerabilities and gathers information (such as version numbers and hardware support) from VxWorks Wind DeBug agents. [Daniel Miller] wsdd-discover: Retrieves and displays information from devices supporting the Web Services Dynamic Discovery (WS-Discovery) protocol. It also attempts to locate any published Windows Communication Framework (WCF) web services (.NET 4.0 or later). [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Added 12 new protocol libraries: - dhcp.lua by Ron - dnssd.lua (DNS Service Discovery) by Patrik - ftp.lua by David - giop.lua (CORBA naming service) by Patrik - informix.lua (Informix database) by Patrik - iscsi.lua (iSCSI - IP based SCSI data transfer) by Patrik - nrpc.lua (Lotus Domino RPC) by Patrik - rmi.lua (Java Remote Method Invocation) by Martin Holst Swende - tns.lua (Oracle) by Patrik - upnp.lua (UPnP support) by Thomas Buchanan and Patrik - vnc.lua (Virtual Network Computing) by Patrik - wsdd.lua (Web Service Dynamic Discovery) by Patriko [NSE] Added a new brute library that provides a basic framework and logic for brute force password auditing scripts. [Patrik]o [Zenmap] Greatly improved performance for large scans by benchmarking intensively and then recoding dozens of slow parts. Time taken to load our benchmark file (a scan of just over a million IPs belonging to Microsoft corporation, with 74,293 hosts up) was reduced from hours to less than two minutes. Memory consumption decreased dramatically as well. [David]o Performed a major OS detection integration run. The database has grown more than 14% to 2,982 fingerprints and many of the existing fingerprints were improved. Highlights include Linux 2.6.37, iPhone OS 4.2.1, Solaris 11, AmigaOS 3.1, GNU Hurd 0.3, and MINIX 2.0.4. David posted highlights of his integration work at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/651o Performed a huge version detection integration run. The number of signatures has grown by more than 11% to 7,355. More than a third of our signatures are for http, but we also detect 743 other service protocols, from abc, acap, access-remote-pc, and achat to zenworks, zeo, and zmodem. David posted highlights at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/761.o [NSE] Added the target NSE library which allows scripts to add newly discovered targets to Nmap's scanning queue. This allows Nmap to support a wide range of target acquisition techniques. Scripts which can now use this feature include dns-zone-transfer, hostmap, ms-sql-info, snmp-interfaces, targets-traceroute, and several more. [Djalal]o [NSE] Nmap has two new NSE script scanning phases. The new pre-scan occurs before Nmap starts scanning. Some of the initial pre-scan scripts use techniques like broadcast DNS service discovery or DNS zone transfers to enumerate hosts which can optionally be treated as targets. The other phase (post scan) runs after all of Nmap's scanning is complete. We don't have any of these scripts yet, but they could compile scan statistics or present the results in a different way. One idea is a reverse index which provides a list of services discovered during a network scan, along with a list of IPs found to be running each service. See http://nmap.org/book/nse-usage.html#nse-script-types. [Djalal]o [NSE] A new --script-help option describes all scripts matching a given specification. It accepts the same specification format as --script does. For example, try 'nmap --script-help "default or http-*"'. [David, Martin Holst Swende]o Dramatically improved nmap.xsl (used for converting Nmap XML output to HTML). In particular: - Put verbose details behind expander buttons so you can see them if you want, but they don't distract from the main output. In particular, offline hosts and traceroute results are collapsed by default. - Improved the color scheme to be less garish. - Added support for the new NSE pre-scan and post-scan phases. - Changed script output to use 'pre' tags to keep even lengthy output readable. - Added a floating menu to the lower-right for toggling whether closed/filtered ports are shown or not (they are now hidden by default if Javascript is enabled). Many smaller improvements were made as well. You can find the new file at http://nmap.org/svn/docs/nmap.xsl, and here is an example scan processed through it: http://nmap.org/tmp/newxsl.html. [Tom]o [NSE] Created a new "broadcast" script category for the broadcast-* scripts. These perform network discovery by broadcasting on the local network and listening for responses. Since they don't directly relate to targets specified on the command line, these are kept out of the default category (nor do they go in "discovery").o Integrated cracked passwords from the Gawker.com compromise (http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/674) into Nmap's top-5000 password database. A team of Nmap developers lead by Brandon Enright has cracked 635,546 out of 748,081 password hashes so far (85%). Gawker doesn't exactly have the most sophisticated users on the Internet--their top passwords are "123456", "password", "12345678", "lifehack", "qwerty", "abc123", "12345", "monkey", "111111", "consumer", and "letmein".o XML output now excludes output for down hosts when only doing host discovery, unless verbosity (-v) was requested. This is how it already worked for normal scans, but the ping-only case was overlooked. [David]o Updated the Windows build process to work with (and require) Visual C++ 2010 rather than 2008. If you want to build Zenmap too, you now need Python 2.7 (rather than 2.6) and GTK+ 2.22. See http://nmap.org/book/inst-windows.html#inst-win-source [David, Rob Nicholls, KX]o Merged port names in the nmap-services file with allocated names from the IANA (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers). We only added IANA names which were "unknown" in our file--we didn't deal with conflicting names. [David]o Enabled the ASLR and DEP security technologies for Nmap.exe, Ncat.exe and Nping.exe on Windows Vista and above. Visual C++ will set the /DYNAMICBASE and /NXCOMPAT flags in the PE header. Executables generated using py2exe or NSIS and third party binaries (OpenSSL, WinPcap) still don't support ASLR or DEP. Support for DEP on XP SP3, using SetProcessDEPPolicy(), could still be implemented. See http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/328. [Robert]o Investigated using the CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) standard for describing operating systems, devices, and service names for Nmap OS and service detection. You can read David's reports at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/278 and http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/303.o [Zenmap] Improved the output viewer to show new output in constant time. Previously it would get slower and slower as the output grew longer, eventually making Zenmap appear to freeze with 100% CPU. Rob Nicholls and Ray Middleton helped with testing. [David]o The Linux RPM builds of Nmap and related tools (ncat, nping, etc.) now link to system libraries dynamically rather than statically. They still link statically to dependency libraries such as OpenSSL, Lua, LibPCRE, Libpcap, etc. We hope this will improve portability so the RPMs will work on distributions with older software (like RHEL, Debian stable) as well as more bleeding edge ones like Fedora. [David]o [NSE] Added the ability to send and receive on unconnected sockets. This can be used, for example, to receive UDP broadcasts without having to use Libpcap. A number of scripts have been changed so that they can work as prerule scripts to discover services by UDP broadcasting, and optionally add the discovered targets to the scanning queue: - ms-sql-info - upnp-info - dns-service-discovery The nmap.new_socket function can now optionally take a default protocol and address family, which will be used if the socket is not connected. There is a new nmap.sendto function to be used with unconnected UDP sockets. [David, Patrik]o [Nping] Substantially improved the Nping man page. You can read it online at http://nmap.org/book/nping-man.html. [Luis, David]o Documented the licenses of the third-party software used by Nmap and it's sibling tools: http://nmap.org/svn/docs/3rd-party-licenses.txt. [David]o [NSE] Improved the SMB scripts so that they can run in parallel rather than using a mutex to force serialization. This quadrupled the SMB scan speed in one large scale test. See http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/819. [Ron]o Added a simple Nmap NSE script template to make writing new scripts easier: http://nmap.org/svn/docs/sample-script.nse. [Ron]o [Zenmap] Made the topology node radiuses grow logarithmically instead of linearly, so that hosts with thousands of open ports don't overwhelm the diagram. Also only open ports (not open|filtered) are considered when calculating node sizes. Henri Doreau found and fixed a bug in the implementation. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Added the get_script_args NSE function for parsing script arguments in a clean and standardized way (http://nmap.org/nsedoc/lib/stdnse.html#get_script_args). [Djalal]o Increased the initial RTT timeout for ARP scans from 100 ms to 200 ms. Some wireless and VPN links were taking around 300 ms to respond. The default of one retransmission gives them 400 ms to be detected.o Added new version detection probes and signatures from Patrik for: - Lotus Domino Console running on tcp/2050 (shows OS and hostname) - IBM Informix Dynamic Server running native protocol (shows hostname, and file path) - Database servers running the DRDA protocol - IBM Websphere MQ (shows name of queue-manager and channel)o Fix Nmap compilation on OpenSolaris (see http://blogs.sun.com/sdaven/entry/nmap_5_35dc1_compile_on) [David]o [NSE] The http library's request functions now accept an additional "auth" table within the option table, which causes Basic authentication credentials to be sent. [David]o Improved IPv6 host output in that we now remember and report the forward DNS name (given by the user) and any non-scanned addresses (usually because of round robin DNS). We already did this for IPv4. [David]o [Zenmap] Upgraded to the newer gtk.Tooltip API to avoid deprecation messages about gtk.Tooltip. [Rob Nicholls]o [NSE] Made dns-zone-transfer script able to add new discovered DNS records to the Nmap scanning queue. [Djalal]o [NSE] Enhance ssl-cert to also report the type and bit size of SSL certificate public keys [Matt Selsky]o [Ncat] Make --exec and --idle-timeout work when connecting with --proxy. Florian Roth reported the bug. [David]o [Nping] Fixed a bug which caused Nping to fail when targeting broadcast addresses (see http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q3/752). [Luis]o [Nping] Nping now limits concurrent open file descriptors properly based on the resources available on the host (see http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/2). [Luis]o [NSE] Improved ssh2's kex_init() parameters: all of the algorithm and language lists can be set using new keys in the "options" table argument. These all default to the same value used before. Also, the required "cookie" argument is now replaced by an optional "cookie" key in the "options" table, defaulting to random bytes as suggested by the RFC. [Kris]o Ncat now logs Nsock debug output to stderr instead of stdout for consistency with its other debug messages. [David]o [NSE] Added a new function, shortport.http, for HTTP script portrules and changed 14 scripts to use it. [David]o Updated to the latest config.guess and config.sub. Thanks to Ty Miller for a reminder. [David]o [NSE] Added prerule support to snmp-interfaces and the ability to add the remote host's interface addresses to the scanning queue. The new script arguments used for this functionality are "host" (required) and "port" (optional). [Kris]o Fixed some inconsistencies in nmap-os-db and a small memory leak that would happen where there was more than one round of OS detection. These were reported by Xavier Sudre from netVigilance. [David]o [NSE] Fixed a bug with worker threads calling the wrong destructors. Fixing this allows better parallelism in http-brute.nse. The problem was reported by Patrik Karlsson. [David, Patrick]o Upgraded the OpenSSL binaries shipped in our Windows installer to version 1.0.0a. [David]o [NSE] Added prerule support to the dns-zone-transfer script, allowing it to run early to discover IPs from DNS records and optionally add those IPs to Nmap's target queue. You must specify the DNS server and domain name to use with script arguments. [Djalal]o Changed the name of libdnet's sctp_chunkhdr to avoid a conflict with a struct of the same name in <netinet/sctp.h>. This caused a compilation error when Nmap was compiled with an OpenSSL that had SCTP support. [Olli Hauer, Daniel Roethlisberger]o [NSE] Implemented a big cleanup of the Nmap NSE Nsock library binding code. [Patrick]o Added a bunch of Apple and Netatalk AFP service detection signatures. These often provide extra details such as whether the target is a MacBook Pro, Air, Mac Mini, iMac, etc. [Brandon]o [NSE] Host tables now have a host.traceroute member available when --traceroute is used. This array contains the IP address, reverse DNS name, and RTT for each traceroute hop. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Made the ftp-anon script return a directory listing when anonymous login is allowed. [Gutek, David]o [NSE] Added the nmap.resolve() function. It takes a host name and optionally an address family (such as "inet") and returns a table containing all of its matching addresses. If no address family is specified, all addresses for the name are returned. [Kris]o [NSE] Added the nmap.address_family() function which returns the address family Nmap is using as a string (e.g., "inet6" is returned if Nmap is called with the -6 option). [Kris]o [NSE] Scripts can now access the MTU of the host.interface device using host.interface_mtu. [Kris]o Restrict the default Windows DLL search path by removing the current directory. This adds extra protection against DLL hijacking attacks, especially if we were to add file type associations to Nmap in the future. We implement this with the SetDllDirectory function when available (Windows XP SP1 and later). Otherwise, we call SetCurrentDirectory with the directory containing the executable. [David]o Nmap now prints the MTU for interfaces in --iflist output. [Kris]o [NSE] Removed references to the MD2 algorithm, which OpenSSL 1.x.x no longer supports. [Alexandru]o [Ncat,NSE] Server Name Indication (SNI) is now supported by Ncat and Nmap NSE, allowing them to connect to servers which run multiple SSL websites on one IP address. To enable this for NSE, the nmap.connect function has been changed to accept host and port tables (like those provided to the action function) in place of a string and a number. [David]o [NSE] Renamed db2-info and db2-brute scripts to drda-*. Added support other DRDA based databases such as IBM Informix Dynamic Server and Apache Derby. [Patrik]o [Nsock] Added a new function, nsi_set_hostname, to set the intended hostname of the target. This allows the use of Server Name Indication in SSL connections. [David]o [NSE] Limits the number of ports that qscan will scan (now up to 8 open ports and up to 1 closed port by default). These limits can be controlled with the qscan.numopen and qscan.numclosed script arguments. [David]o [NSE] Made sslv2.nse give special output when SSLv2 is supported, but no SSLv2 ciphers are offered. This happened with a specific Sendmail configuration. [Matt Selsky]o [NSE] Added a "times" table to the host table passed to scripts. This table contains Nmap's timing data (srtt, the smoothed round trip time; rttvar, the rtt variance; and timeout), all represented as floating-point seconds. The ipidseq and qscan scripts were updated to utilize the host's timeout value rather than using a conservative guess of 3 seconds for read timeouts. [Kris]o Fixed the fragmentation options (-f in Nmap, --mtu in Nmap & Nping), which were improperly sending whole packets in version 5.35DC1. [Kris]o [NSE] When receiving raw packets from Pcap, the packet capture time is now available to scripts as an additional return value from pcap_receive(). It is returned as the floating point number of seconds since the epoch. Also added the nmap.clock() function which returns the current time (and convenience functions clock_ms() and clock_us()). Qscan.nse was updated to use this more accurate timing data. [Kris]o [Ncat,Nsock] Fixed some minor bugs discovered using the Smatch source code analyzer (http://smatch.sourceforge.net/). [David]o [Zenmap] Fixed a crash that would happen after opening the search window, entering a relative date criterion such as "after:-7", and then clicking the "Expressions" button. The error message was AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'strftime' [David]o Added a new packet payload--a NAT-PMP external address request for port 5351/udp. Payloads help us elicit responses from listening UDP services to better distinguish them from filtered ports. This payload goes well with our new nat-pmp-info script. [David, Patrik]o Updated IANA IP address space assignment list for random IP (-iR) generation. [Kris]o [Ncat] Ncat now uses case-insensitive string comparison when checking authentication schemes and parameters. Florian Roth found a server offering "BASIC" instead of "Basic", and the HTTP RFC requires case-insensitive comparisons in most places. [David]o [NSE] There is now a limit of 1,000 concurrent running scripts, instituted to keep memory under control when there are many open ports. Nathan reported 3 GB of memory use (with an out-of-memory NSE crash) for one host with tens of thousands of open ports. This limit can be controlled with the variable CONCURRENCY_LIMIT in nse_main.lua. [David]o The command line in XML output (/nmaprun/@args attribute) now does quoting of whitespace using double quotes and backslashes. This allows recovering the original command line array even when arguments contain whitespace. [David]o Added a service detection probe for master servers of Quake 3 and related games. [Toni Ruottu]
Nmap Changelog ($Id: CHANGELOG 22250 2011-02-13 03:29:16Z david $); -*-text-*-o [Zenmap] Worked around a pycairo bug that prevented saving the topology graphic as PNG on Windows: "Error Saving Snapshot: Surface.write_to_png takes one argument which must be a filename (str), file object, or a file-like object which has a 'write' method (like StringIO)". The problem was reported by Alex Kah. [David]o The -V and --version options now show the platform Nmap was compiled on, which features are compiled in, and the version numbers of libraries it is linked against. [Ambarisha B., David]o Fixed some inconsistencies in nmap-os-db reported by Xavier Sudre from netVigilance.o Updated IANA IP address space assignment list for random IP (-iR) generation. This list now contains only various reserved blocks as IANA has handed out the final unallocated IPv4 addresses to the RIRs. [Kris]Nmap 5.51 [2011-02-11]o [Ndiff] Added support for prerule and postrule scripts. [David]o [NSE] Fixed a bug which caused some NSE scripts to fail due to the absence of the NSE SCRIPT_NAME environment variable when loaded. Michael Pattrick reported the problem. [Djalal]o [Zenmap] Selecting one of the scan targets in the left pane is supposed to jump to that host in the Nmap Output in the right pane (but it wasn't). Brian Krebs reported this bug. [David]o Fixed an obscure bug in Windows interface matching. If the MAC address of an interface couldn't be retrieved, it might have been used instead of the correct interface. Alexander Khodyrev reported the problem. [David]o [NSE] Fixed portrules in dns-zone-transfer and ftp-proftpd-backdoor that used shortport functions incorrectly and always returned true. [Jost Krieger]o [Ndiff] Fixed ndiff.dtd to include two elements that can be diffed: status and address. [Daniel Miller]o [Ndiff] Fixed the ordering of hostscript-related elements in XML output. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Fixed a bug in the nrpe-enum script that would make it run for every port (when it was selected--it isn't by default). Daniel Miller reported the bug. [Patrick]o [NSE] When an NSE script sets a negative socket timeout, it now causes a controlled Lua stack trace instead of a fatal error. Vlatko Kosturjak reported the bug. [David]o [Zenmap] Worked around an error that caused the py2app bootstrap executable to be non-universal even when the rest of the application was universal. This prevented the binary .dmg from working on PowerPC. Yxynaxen reported the problem. [David]o [Ndiff] Fixed an output line that wasn't being redirected to a file when all other output was. [Daniel Miller]

[Nick Nikolaou] + xmpp: Connects to an XMPP server (port 5222) and collects server information such as supported auth mechanisms, compression methods and whether TLS is supported and mandatory. [Vasiliy Kulikov]o Nmap has long supported IPv6 for basic (connect) port scans, basic host discovery, version detection, Nmap Scripting Engine. This release dramatically expands and improves IPv6 support: + IPv6 raw packet scans (including SYN scan, UDP scan, ACK scan, etc.) are now supported. [David, Weilin] + IPv6 raw packet host discovery (IPv6 echo requests, TCP/UDP discovery packets, etc.) is now supported. [David, Weilin] + IPv6 traceroute is now supported [David] + IPv6 protocol scan (-sO) is now supported, including creating realistic headers for many protocols. [David] + IPv6 support to the wsdd, dnssd and upnp NSE libraries. [Daniel Miller, Patrik] + The --exclude and --excludefile now support IPV6 addresses with netmasks. [Colin]o Scanme.Nmap.Org (the system anyone is allowed to scan for testing purposes) is now dual-stacked (has an IPv6 address as well as IPv4) so you can scan it during IPv6 testing. We also added a DNS record for ScanmeV6.nmap.org which is IPv6-only. See http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q2/428. [Fyodor]o The Nmap.Org website as well as sister sites Insecure.Org, SecLists.Org, and SecTools.Org all have working IPv6 addresses now (dual stacked). [Fyodor]o Nmap now determines the filesystem location it is being run from and that path is now included early in the search path for data files (such as nmap-services). This reduces the likelihood of needing to specify --datadir or getting data files from a different version of Nmap installed on the system. For full details, see http://nmap.org/book/data-files-replacing-data-files.html. Thanks to Solar Designer for implementation advice. [David]o Created a page on our SecWiki for collecting Nmap script ideas! If you have a good idea, post it to the incoming section of the page. Or if you're in a script writing mood but don't know what to write, come here for inspiration: https://secwiki.org/w/Nmap_Script_Ideas.o The development pace has greatly increased because Google (again) sponsored a 7 full-time college and graduate student programmer interns this summer as part of their Summer of Code program! Thanks, Google Open Source Department! We're delighted to introduce the team: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q2/312o [NSE] Added 7 new protocol libraries, bringing the total to 66. You can read about them all at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/. Here are the new ones (authors listed in brackets): + creds: Handles storage and retrieval of discovered credentials (such as passwords discovered by brute force scripts). [Patrik Karlsson] + ncp: A tiny implementation of Novell Netware Core Protocol (NCP). [Patrik Karlsson] + omp2: OpenVAS Management Protocol (OMP) version 2 support. [Henri Doreau] + sip: Supports a limited subset of SIP commands and methods. [Patrik Karlsson] + smtp: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) operations. [Djalal Harouni] + srvloc: A relatively small implementation of the Service Location Protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + tftp: Implements a minimal TFTP server. It is used in snmp-ios-config to obtain router config files.[Patrik Karlsson]o Improved Nmap's service/version detection database by adding: + Apple iPhoto (DPAP) protocol probe [Patrik] + Zend Java Bridge probe [Michael Schierl] + BackOrifice probe [Gorjan Petrovski] + GKrellM probe [Toni Ruotto] + Signature improvements for a wide variety of services (we now have 7,375 signatures)o [NSE] ssh-hostkey now additionally has a postrule that prints hosts found during the scan which share the same hostkey. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Added 300+ new signatures to http-enum which look for admin directories, JBoss, Tomcat, TikiWiki, Majordomo2, MS SQL, Wordpress, and more. [Paulino]o Made the final IP address space assignment update as all available IPv4 address blocks have now been allocated to the regional registries. Our random IP generation (-iR) logic now only excludes the various reserved blocks. Thanks to Kris for years of regular updates to this function!o [NSE] Replaced http-trace with a new more effective version. [Paulino]o Performed some output cleanup work to remove unimportant status lines so that it is easier to find the good stuff! [David]o [Zenmap] now properly kills Nmap scan subprocess when you cancel a scan or quit Zenmap on Windows. [Shinnok]o [NSE] Banned scripts from being in both the "default" and "intrusive" categories. We did this by removing dhcp-discover and dns-zone-transfer from the set of scripts run by default (leaving them "intrusive"), and reclassifying dns-recursion, ftp-bounce, http-open-proxy, and socks-open-proxy as "safe" rather than "intrusive" (keeping them in the "default" set).o [NSE] Added a credential storage library (creds.lua) and modified the brute library and scripts to make use of it. [Patrik]o [Ncat] Created a portable version of ncat.exe that you can just drop onto Microsoft Windows systems without having to run any installer or copy over extra library files. See the Ncat page (http://nmap.org/ncat/) for binary downloads and a link to build instructions. [Shinnok]o Fix a segmentation fault which could occur when running Nmap on various Android-based phones. The problem related to NULL being passed to freeaddrinfo(). [David, Vlatko Kosturjak]o [NSE] The host.bin_ip and host.bin_ip_src entries now also work with 16-byte IPv6 addresses. [David]o [Ncat] Updated the ca-bundle.crt list of trusted certificate authority certificates. [David]o [NSE] Fixed a bug in the SMB Authentication library which could prevent concurrently running scripts with valid credentials from logging in. [Chris Woodbury]o [NSE] Re-worked http-form-brute.nse to better autodetect form fields, allow brute force attempts where only the password (no username) is needed, follow HTTP redirects, and better detect incorrect login attempts. [Patrik, Daniel Miller]o [Zenmap] Changed the "slow comprehensive scan" profile's NSE script selection from "all" to "default or (discovery and safe)" categories. Except for testing and debugging, "--script all" is rarely desirable.o [NSE] Added the stdnse.silent_require method which is used for library requires that you know might fail (e.g. "openssl" fails if Nmap was compiled without that library). If these libraries are called with silent_require and fail to load, the script will cease running but the user won't be presented with ugly failure messages as would happen with a normal require. [Patrick Donnelly]o [Zenmap] Fixed a bug in topology mapper which caused endpoints behind firewalls to sometimes show up in the wrong place (see http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q2/733). [Colin Rice]o [Zenmap] If you scan a system twice, any open ports from the first scan which are closed in the 2nd will be properly marked as closed. [Colin Rice].o [Zenmap] Fixed an error that could cause a crash ("TypeError: an integer is required") if a sort column in the ports table was unset. [David]o [Ndiff] Added nmaprun element information (Nmap version, scan date, etc.) to the diff. Also, the Nmap banner with version number and data is now only printed if there were other differences in the scan. [Daniel Miller, David, Dr. Jesus]o [NSE] Added nmap.get_interface and nmap.get_interface_info functions so scripts can access characteristics of the scanning interface. Removed nmap.get_interface_link. [Djalal]o Fixed an overflow in scan elapsed time display that caused negative times to be printed after about 25 days. [Daniel Miller]o Updated nmap-rpc from the master list, now maintained by IANA. [Daniel Miller, David]o [Zenmap] Fixed a bug in the option parser: -sN (null scan) was interpreted as -sn (no port scan). This was reported by Shitaneddine. [David]o [Ndiff] Fixed the Mac OS X packages to use the correct path for Python: /usr/bin/python instead of /opt/local/bin/python. The bug was reported by Wellington Castello. [David]o Removed the -sR (RPC scan) option--it is now an alias for -sV (version scan), which always does RPC scan when an rpcinfo service is detected.o [NSE] Improved the ms-sql scripts and library in several ways: - Improved version detection and server discovery - Added support for named pipes, integrated authentication, and connecting to instances by name or port - Improved script and library stability and documentation. [Patrik Karlsson, Chris Woodbury]o [NSE] Fixed http.validate_options when handling a cookie table. [Sebastian Prengel]o Added a Service Tags UDP probe for port 6481/udp. [David]o [NSE] Enabled firewalk.nse to automatically find the gateways at which probes are dropped and fixed various bugs. [Henri Doreau]o [Zenmap] Worked around a pycairo bug that prevented saving the topology graphic as PNG on Windows: "Error Saving Snapshot: Surface.write_to_png takes one argument which must be a filename (str), file object, or a file-like object which has a 'write' method (like StringIO)". The problem was reported by Alex Kah. [David]o The -V and --version options now show the platform Nmap was compiled on, which features are compiled in, the version numbers of libraries it is linked against, and whether the libraries are the ones that come with Nmap or the operating system. [Ambarisha B., David]o Fixed some inconsistencies in nmap-os-db reported by Xavier Sudre from netVigilance.o The Nmap Win32 uninstaller now properly deletes nping.exe. [Fyodor]o [NSE] Added a shortport.ssl function which can be used as a script portrule to match SSL services. It is similar in concept to our existing shortport.http. [David]o Set up the RPM build to use the compat-glibc and compat-gcc-34-c++ packages (on CentOS 5.3) to resolve a report of Nmap failing to run on old versions of Glibc. [David]o We no longer support Nmap on versions of Windows earlier than XP SP2. Even Microsoft no longer supports Windows versions that old. But if you must use Nmap on such systems anyway, please see https://secwiki.org/w/Nmap_On_Old_Windows_Releases.o There were hundreds of other little bug fixes and improvements (especially to NSE scripts). See the SVN logs for revisions 22,274 through 24,460 for details.
# Nmap Changelog ($Id: CHANGELOG 26639 2011-09-19 22:14:29Z david $); -*-text-*-Nmap 5.61TEST1 [2011-09-19]o The changelog entries below for this test release are not yet finished or comprehensive. We'll update them soon.o [Ncat] Updated ca-bundle.crt (primarily to remove DigiNotar).o Fixed compilation on OS X 10.7 Lion. Thanks to Patrik Karlsson and Babak Farroki for researching fixes.o [NSE] Fixed SSL compressor names in ssl-enum-ciphers.nse, and removed redundant multiple listings of the NULL compressor. [Matt Selsky]o [NSE] Added cipher strength ratings to ssl-enum-ciphers.nse. [Gabriel Lawrence]o Added Common Platform Enumeration (CPE, http://cpe.mitre.org/) output for OS and service versions. These show up in normal output with the headings "OS CPE:" and "Service Info:": OS CPE: cpe:/o:linux:kernel:2.6.39 Service Info: OS: Linux; CPE: cpe:/o:linux:kernel These also appear in XML output, which additionally has CPE entries for service versions. [David, Henri]o [NSE] Added new default credential list for Oracle and modified the oracle-brute script to make use of it. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added xmpp-info.nse as a replacement for xmpp.nse. This updated version brings new features and fixes. [Vasiliy Kulikov]o Fixed RPC scan for 64-bit architectures by using fixed-size data types. [David]o Relaxed the XML DTD to allow validation of files where the verbosity level changed during the scan. [Daniel Miller]o Made a service confidence of 8 (used when tcpwrapped) and indeed any number between 0 and 10 be legal in XML output according to the DTD. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Added three scripts that do host discovery on local IPv6 subnets. Each of them uses a different multicast technique, meaning that even very large networks have host discovery done without needing to probe every address individually. + targets-multicast-ipv6-echo: Sends a multicast echo request, like broadcast-ping does for IPv4. + targets-multicast-ipv6-invalid-dst: Sends an invalid packet that can elicit an ICMPv6 Parameter Problem response. + targets-multicast-ipv6-slaac: Sends a phony router advertisement, which causes hosts to allocate a temporary address and then send a packet to discover if anyone else is using the address. [Weilin, David]o [NSE] Added functions to packet.lua to make it easier to build IPv6 packets. [Weilin]o [NSE] Added new script http-vuln-cve2011-3192 which checks whether an instance of Apache is vulnerable to a DoS attack exploiting the byterange filter. [Duarte Silva].o [NSE] Fixed authentication problems in the TNS library that would prevent authentication from working against Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 XE [Chris Woodbury]o Removed some restrictions on probe matching that, for example, prevented a RST/ACK reply from being recognized in a NULL scan. This was found and fixed by Matthew Stickney and Joe McEachern.o Rearranged some characters classes in service matches to avoid any that look like POSIX collating symbols ("[.xyz.]"). John Hutchison discovered this error caused by one of the match lines: InitMatch: illegal regexp: POSIX collating elements are not supported [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Added the address-info.nse script, which shows extra information about IP addresses.o [NSE] Added scripts http-joomla-brute, http-wordpress-brute, http-wp-enum and http-awstatstotal-exec. [Paulino]o [Zenmap] Fixed zenmap deleting ports based on newer scans which did not actually scan the port in question. Additionally ncat now only updates ports with new information if the new information is the same protocol. Not just the same port. [Colin Rice]o [Ncat] Fixed ncat crashing with --ssl-verify -vvv on windows. [Colin Rice]o [NSE] Added script http-waf-detect. This script tries to determine if an IDS/IPS/WAF is protecting a web server. [Paulino]o [NSE] Added the bittorrent library and bittorrent-discovery script which enables us to discover peers and nodes for a particular torrent file or magnet link.o [NSE] Added basic query support to the Oracle TNS library making it possible for scripts to query the database server using SQL. [Patrik]o [Ncat] Added --append-output option, that when used along with -o and/or -x prevents clobbering(truncating) an existing file. [Shinnok]o [NSE] Added script broadcast-listener that attempts to discover hosts by passively listening to the network. It does so by decoding ethernet and IP broadcast and multicast messages. [Patrik]o Fixed a bug that would make Nmap segfault if it failed to open an interface using pcap. The bug details and patch are posted here: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q3/365 [Patrik]o Ncat SCTP mode supports connection brokering now(--sctp --broker). [Shinnok]o Nmap now defers options parsing until it has read through all the command line arguments. You can now use options like -S with an IPv6 address before specifying -6 at the command line, which previously got you an error. [Shinnok]o [NSE] Added the library xmpp.lua and the script xmpp-brute that performs brute force password auditing against XMPP (Jabber) servers. [Patrik]o [NSE] Fixed a bug in the ssh2-enum-algos script that would prevent it from displaying any output unless run in debug mode. [Patrik]o [NSE] Fixed the nsedebug print_hex() function so it does not print an empty line if there are no remaining characters, and improved its NSEDoc. [Chris Woodbury].o [NSE] Added the scripts http-axis2-dir-traversal and http-litespeed-sourcecode-download that exploits a directory traversal and null byte poisoning vulnerabilities in Apache Axis2 and LiteSpeed Web Server respectively. [Paulino] o [Ncat] Ncat now no longer blocks while an ssl handshake is taking place or waiting to complete. [Shinnok]o [NSE] Added the script broadcast-dhcp-discover that sends a DHCP discover message to the broadcast address and collects and reports the network information received from the DHCP server. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added the script smtp-brute that performs brute force password auditing against SMTP servers. [Patrik]o [NSE] Updated SMTP library to support authentication using both plain-text and the SASL library. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added the script imap-brute that performs brute force password auditing against IMAP servers. [Patrik]o [NSE] Updated IMAP library to support authentication using both plain-text and the SASL library. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added SASL library created by Djalal Harouni and Patrik Karlsson providing common code for "Simple Authentication and Security Layer" to services supporting it. The algorithms supported by the library are: PLAIN, CRAM-MD5, DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM. [Patrik Karlsson, Djalal Harouni]o [NSE] Added scripts cvs-brute.nse, cvs-brute-repository.nse and the cvs library. The cvs-brute-repository script allows for guessing possible repository names needed in order to perform password guessing using the cvs-brute.nse script. [Patrik]o [Zenmap] The Zenmap crash handler now instructs you to mail in crash information to nmap-dev. [Colin Rice]o Added IPv6 Neighbor Discovery ping. This is the IPv6 analog to IPv4 ARP scan. It is the default ping type for local IPv6 networks. [Weilin]o [NSE] Added smtp-vuln-cve2011-1764 script, which checks if the Exim SMTP server is vulnerable to the DKIM Format String vulnerability (CVE-2011-1764). [Djalal]o Added the broadcast-ping script which sends icmp packets to broadcast addresses on the selected network interface, or all ethernet interfaces if none is selected. It has the option to add the discovered hosts as targets. o [NSE] Applied patch from Chris Woodbury that adds the following additional information to the output of smb-os-discovery: + Forest name + FQDN + NetBIOS computer name + NetBIOS domain nameo [Ncat] Ncat now supports IPV6 addresses by default without the -6 flag. Additionally ncat listens on both :: and localhost when passed -l, or any other listening mode unless a specific listening address is supplied.o [NSE] Split script db2-discover into two scripts, adding a new broadcast-db2-discover script. This script attempts to discover DB2 database servers through broadcast requests. [Patrik Karlsson]o Fixed broken XML output in the case of timed-out hosts; the enclosing host element was missing. The fix was suggested by Rémi Mollon.o [NSE] Added ftp-vuln-cve2010-4221 script, which checks if the ProFTPD server is vulnerable to the Telnet IAC stack overflow vulnerability (CVE-2010-4221). [Djalal]o [NSE] Added ftp-vsftpd-backdoor, which detects a backdoor that was introduced into vsftpd-2.3.4 source code distributions. [Daniel Miller] o [NSE] ldap-brute.nse - Multiple changes: + Added support for 2008 R2 functional level Active Directory instances to ldap-brute. + Added detection for valid credentials where the target account was expired or limited by time or login host constraints. + Added support for specifying a UPN suffix to be appended to usernames when brute forcing Microsoft Active Directory accounts. + Added support for saving discovered credentials to a CSV file. + Now reports valid credentials as they are discovered when the script is run with -vv or higher. [Tom Sellers] o [NSE] ldap-search.nse - Added support for saving search results to CSV. This is done by using the ldap.savesearch script argument to specify an output filename prefix. [Tom Sellers] o [NSE] Updated smb-brute to add detection for valid credentials where the target account was expired or limited by time or login host constraints. [Tom Sellers]o [NSE] Updated account status text in brute force password discovery scripts in an effort to make the reporting more consistent across all scripts. This will have an impact on any code that parses these values. [Tom Sellers]
Nmap 5.61TEST2 [2011-09-30]o Added IPv6 OS detection system! The new system utilizes many tests similar to IPv4, and also some IPv6-specific ones that we found to be particularly effective. And it uses a machine learning approach rather than the static classifier we use for IPv4. We hope to move some of the IPv6 innovations back to our IPv4 system if they work out well. The database is still very small, so please submit any fingerprints that Nmap gives you to the specified URL (as long as you are certain that you know what the target system is running). Usage and results output are basically the same as with IPv4, but we will soon document the internal mechanisms at http://nmap.org/book/osdetect.html, just as we have for IPv4. For an example, try "nmap -6 -O scanme.nmap.org". [David, Luis]o [NSE] Added 3 scripts, bringing the total to 246! You can learn more about them at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/. Here they are (authors listed in brackets): + lltd-discovery uses the Microsoft LLTD protocol to discover hosts on a local network. [Gorjan Petrovski] + ssl-google-cert-catalog queries Google's Certificate Catalog for the SSL certificates retrieved from target hosts. [Vasiliy Kulikov] + quake3-info extracts information from a Quake3-like game server. [Toni Ruottu]o Improved AIX support for raw scans. This includes some patches originally written by Peter O'Gorman and Florian Schmid. It also involved various build fixes found necessary on AIX 6.1 and 7.1. See http://nmap.org/book/inst-other-platforms.html. [David]o Fixed Nmap so that it again compiles and runs on Solaris 10, including IPv6 support. [David]o Made the interface gathering loop work on Linux when an interface index is more than two digits in /proc/sys/if_inet6. Joe McEachern tracked down the problem and provided the fix.o [NSE] Fixed a bug in dns.lua: ensure that dns.query() always return two values (status, response) and replaced the workaround in asn-query.nse by the proper use. [Henri]o [NSE] Made irc-info.nse handle the case where the MOTD is missing. Patch by Sebastian Dragomir.o Updated nmap-mac-prefixes to include the latest IEEE assignments as of 2011-09-29.
# Nmap Changelog ($Id: CHANGELOG 27735 2012-01-02 02:55:47Z fyodor $); -*-text-*-Nmap 5.61TEST4 [2012-01-02]o [NSE] Added a new httpspider library which is used for recursively crawling web sites for information. New scripts using this functionality include http-backup-finder, http-email-harvest, http-grep, http-open-redirect, and http-unsafe-output-escaping. See http://nmap.org/nsedoc/ or the list later in this file for details on these. [Patrik]o Our Mac OS X packages are now x86-only (rather than universal), reducing the download size from 30 MB to about 17. If you still need a PowerPC version (Apple stopped selling those machines in 2006), you can use Nmap 5.51 or 5.61TEST2 from http://nmap.org/dist/?C=M&O=D.o We set up a new SVN server for the Nmap codebase. This one uses SSL for better security, WebDAV rather than svnserve for greater functionality, is hosted on a faster (virtual) machine, provides Nmap code history back to 1998 rather than 2005, and removes the need for the special "guest" username. The new server is at https://svn.nmap.org. More information: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q4/504.o [NSE] Added a vulnerability management library (vulns.lua) to store and to report discovered vulnerabilities. Modified these scripts to use the new library: - ftp-libopie.nse - http-vuln-cve2011-3192.nse - ftp-vuln-cve2010-4221.nse - ftp-vsftpd-backdoor.nse - smtp-vuln-cve2011-1720.nse - smtp-vuln-cve2011-1764.nse - afp-path-vuln.nse [Djalal, Henri]o [NSE] Added a new script force feature. You can force scripts to run against target ports (even if the "wrong" service is detected) by placing a plus in front of the script name passed to --script. See http://nmap.org/book/nse-usage.html#nse-script-selection. [Martin Swende]o [NSE] Added 51(!) NSE scripts, bringing the total up to 297. They are all listed at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are below (authors listed in brackets): + amqp-info gathers information (a list of all server properties) from an AMQP (advanced message queuing protocol) server. [Sebastian Dragomir] + bitcoin-getaddr queries a Bitcoin server for a list of known Bitcoin nodes. [Patrik Karlsson] + bitcoin-info extracts version and node information from a Bitcoin server [Patrik Karlsson] + bitcoinrpc-info obtains information from a Bitcoin server by calling <code>getinfo</code> on its JSON-RPC interface. [Toni Ruottu] + broadcast-pc-anywhere sends a special broadcast probe to discover PC-Anywhere hosts running on a LAN. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-pc-duo discovers PC-DUO remote control hosts and gateways running on the LAN. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-rip-discover discovers hosts and routing information from devices running RIPv2 on the LAN. It does so by sending a RIPv2 Request command and collects the responses from all devices responding to the request. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-sybase-asa-discover discovers Sybase Anywhere servers on the LAN by sending broadcast discovery messages. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-wake-on-lan wakes a remote system up from sleep by sending a Wake-On-Lan packet. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-wpad-discover Retrieves a list of proxy servers on the LAN using the Web Proxy Autodiscovery Protocol (WPAD). [Patrik Karlsson] + dns-blacklist checks target IP addresses against multiple DNS anti-spam and open proxy blacklists and returns a list of services where the IP has been blacklisted. [Patrik Karlsson] + dns-zeustracker checks if the target IP range is part of a Zeus botnet by querying ZTDNS @ abuse.ch. [Mikael Keri] + ganglia-info retrieves system information (OS version, available memory, etc.) from a listening Ganglia Monitoring Daemon or Ganglia Meta Daemon. [Brendan Coles] + hadoop-datanode-info discovers information such as log directories from an Apache Hadoop DataNode HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + hadoop-jobtracker-info retrieves information from an Apache Hadoop JobTracker HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + hadoop-namenode-info retrieves information from an Apache Hadoop NameNode HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + hadoop-secondary-namenode-info retrieves information from an Apache Hadoop secondary NameNode HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + hadoop-tasktracker-info retrieves information from an Apache Hadoop TaskTracker HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + hbase-master-info retrieves information from an Apache HBase (Hadoop database) master HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + hbase-region-info retrieves information from an Apache HBase (Hadoop database) region server HTTP status page. [John R. Bond] + http-apache-negotiation checks if the target http server has mod_negotiation enabled. This feature can be leveraged to find hidden resources and spider a web site using fewer requests. [Hani Benhabiles] + http-backup-finder Spiders a website and attempts to identify backup copies of discovered files. It does so by requesting a number of different combinations of the filename (e.g. index.bak, index.html~, copy of index.html). [Patrik Karlsson] + http-cors tests an http server for Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS), a way for domains to explicitly opt in to having certain methods invoked by another domain. [Toni Ruottu] + http-email-harvest spiders a web site and collects e-mail addresses. [Patrik Karlsson] + http-grep spiders a website and attempts to match all pages and urls against a given string. Matches are counted and grouped per url under which they were discovered. [Patrik Karlsson] + http-method-tamper tests whether a JBoss target is vulnerable to jmx console authentication bypass (CVE-2010-0738). [Hani Benhabiles] + http-open-redirect spiders a website and attempts to identify open redirects. Open redirects are handlers which commonly take a URL as a parameter and responds with a http redirect (3XX) to the target. [Martin Holst Swende] + http-put uploads a local file to a remote web server using the HTTP PUT method. You must specify the filename and URL path with NSE arguments. [Patrik Karlsson] + http-robtex-reverse-ip Obtains up to 100 forward DNS names for a target IP address by querying the Robtex service (http://www.robtex.com/ip/). [riemann] + http-unsafe-output-escaping spiders a website and attempts to identify output escaping problems where content is reflected back to the user. [Martin Holst Swende] + http-vuln-cve2011-3368 tests for the CVE-2011-3368 (Reverse Proxy Bypass) vulnerability in Apache HTTP server's reverse proxy mode. [Ange Gutek, Patrik Karlsson"] + ipv6-node-info obtains hostnames, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses through IPv6 Node Information Queries.

[Patrik Karlsson] + maxdb-info retrieves version and database information from a SAP Max DB database. [Patrik Karlsson] + metasploit-xmlrpc-brute performs brute force password auditing against a Metasploit RPC server using the XMLRPC protocol. [Vlatko Kosturjak] + ms-sql-dump-hashes Dumps the password hashes from an MS-SQL server in a format suitable for cracking by tools such as John-the-ripper. In order to do so the user needs to have the appropriate DB privileges. [Patrik Karlsson] + nessus-brute performs brute force password auditing against a Nessus vulnerability scanning daemon using the NTP 1.2 protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + nexpose-brute performs brute force password auditing against a Nexpose vulnerability scanner using the API 1.1. [Vlatko Kosturjak] + openlookup-info parses and displays the banner information of an OpenLookup (network key-value store) server. [Toni Ruottu] + openvas-otp-brute performs brute force password auditing against a OpenVAS vulnerability scanner daemon using the OTP 1.0 protocol. [Vlatko Kosturjak] + reverse-index creates a reverse index at the end of scan output showing which hosts run a particular service. [Patrik Karlsson] + rexec-brute performs brute force password auditing against the classic UNIX rexec (remote exec) service. [Patrik Karlsson] + rlogin-brute performs brute force password auditing against the classic UNIX rlogin (remote login) service. [Patrik Karlsson] + rtsp-methods determines which methods are supported by the RTSP (real time streaming protocol) server. [Patrik Karlsson] + rtsp-url-brute attempts to enumerate RTSP media URLS by testing for common paths on devices such as surveillance IP cameras. [Patrik Karlsson] + telnet-encryption determines whether the encryption option is supported on a remote telnet server. Some systems (including FreeBSD and the krb5 telnetd available in many Linux distributions) implement this option incorrectly, leading to a remote root vulnerability. [Patrik Karlsson, David Fifield, Fyodor] + tftp-enum enumerates TFTP (trivial file transfer protocol) filenames by testing for a list of common ones. [Alexander Rudakov] + unusual-port compares the detected service on a port against the expected service for that port number (e.g. ssh on 22, http on 80) and reports deviations. [Patrik Karlsson] + vuze-dht-info retrieves some basic information, including protocol version from a Vuze filesharing node. [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Added some new protocol libraries + amqp (advanced message queuing protocol) [Sebastian Dragomir] + bitcoin crypto currency [Patrik Karlsson + dnsbl for DNS-based blacklists [Patrik Karlsson + rtsp (real time streaming protocol) [Patrik Karlsson] + httpspider and vulns have separate entries in this CHANGELOGo Nmap now includes a nmap-update program for obtaining the latest updates (new scripts, OS fingerprints, etc.) The system is currently only available to a few developers for testing, but we hope to enable a larger set of beta testers soon. [David]o On Windows, the directory <HOME>\AppData\Roaming\nmap is now searched for data files. This is the equivalent of $HOME/.nmap on POSIX. [David]o Improved OS detection performance by scaling congestion control increments by the response rate during OS scan, just as was done for port scan before. [David]o [NSE] The targets-ipv6-multicast-*.nse scripts now scan all interfaces by default. They show the MAC address and interface name now too. [David, Daniel Miller]o Added some new version detection probes: + MongoDB service [Martin Holst Swende] + Metasploit XMLRPC service [Vlatko Kosturjak] + Vuze filesharing system [Patrik] + Redis key-value store [Patrik] + memcached [Patrik] + Sybase SQL Anywhere [Patrik] + VMware ESX Server [Aleksey Tyurin] + TCP Kerberos [Patrik] + PC-Duo [Patrik] + PC Anywhere [Patrik]o Targets requiring different source addresses now go into different hostgroups, not only for host discovery but also for port scanning. Before, only responses to one of the source addresses would be processed, and the others would be ignored. [David]o Tidied up the version detection DB (nmap-service-probes) with a new cleanup/canonicalization program sv-tidy. In particular, this: - Removes excess whitespace - Sorts templates in the order m p v i d o h cpe: - Canonicalizes template delimiters in the order: / | % = @ #. [David]o The --exclude and --excludefile options for excluding targets can now be used together. [David]o [NSE] Added support for detecting whether a http connection was established using SSL or not to the http.lua library [Patrik]o [NSE] Added local port to BPF filter in snmp-brute to fix bug that would prevent multiple scripts from receiving the correct responses. The bug was discovered by Brendan Bird. [Patrik]o [NSE] Changed the dhcp-discover script to use the DHCPINFORM request to query dhcp servers instead of DHCPDISCOVER. Also removed DoS code from dhcp-discover and placed the script into the discovery and safe categories. Added support for adding options to DHCP requests and cleaned up some code in the dhcp library. [Patrik]o [NSE] Applied patch to snmp-brute that solves problems with handling errors that occur during community list file parsing. [Duarte Silva]o [NSE] Added new fingerprints to http-enum for: - Subversion, CVS and Apache Archiva [Duarte Silva] - DVCS systems Git, Mercurial and Bazaar [Hani Benhabiles].o [NSE] Applied some code cleanup to the snmp library. [Brendan Byrd]o [NSE] Fixed an undeclared variable bug in snmp-ios-config [Patrik]o [NSE] Add additional version information to Mongodb scripts [Martin Swende]o [NSE] Added path argument to the http-auth script and update the script to use stdnse.format_output. [Duarte Silva, Patrik]o [NSE] Fixed bug in the http library that would fail to parse authentication headers if no parameters were present. [Patrik]o Made a syntax change in the zenmap.desktop file for compliance with the XDG standard. [Frederik Schwarzer]o [NSE] Replaced a number of GET requests to HEAD in http- fingerprints.lua. HEAD is quicker and sufficient when no matching is performed on the returned contents. [Hani Benhabiles]o [NSE] Added support for retrieving SSL certificates from FTP servers. [Matt Selsky]o [Nping] The --safe-payloads option is now the default. Added --include-payloads for the special situations where payloads are needed. [Colin Rice]o [NSE] Added new functionality and fixed some bugs in the brute library: - Added support for restricting the number of guesses performed by the brute library against users, to prevent account lockouts. - Added support to guess the username as password. The documentation previously suggested (wrongly) that this was the default behavior. - Added support to guess an empty string as password if not present in the dictionary. [Patrik]o [NSE] Re-enabled support for guessing the username in addition to password that was incorrectly removed from the metasploit-xmlrpc-brute in previous commit. [Patrik] o [NSE] Fixed bug that would prevent brute scripts from running if no service field was present in the port table. [Patrik]o [NSE] Turned on promiscuous mode in targets-sniffer.nse so that it finds packets not only from or to the scanning host. [David]o The Zenmap topology display feature is now disabled when there are more than 1,000 target hosts. Those topology maps slow down the interface and are generally too crowded to be of much use.o [NSE] Modified the http library to support servers that don't return valid chunked encoded data, such as the Citrix XML service. [Patrik]o [NSE] Fixed a bug where the brute library would not abort even after all retries were exhausted [Patrik]o Fixed a bug in the IPv6 OS probe called NI. The Node Information Query didn't include the target address as the payload, so at least OS X didn't respond. This differed from the probe sent by the ipv6fp.py program from which some of our fingerprints were derived. [David]o [NSE] Fixed an error in the mssql library that was causing the broadcast-ms-sql-discover script to fail when trying to update port version information. [Patrik]o [NSE] Added the missing broadcast category to the broadcast-listener script. [Jason DePriest]o [NSE] Made changes to the categories of the following scripts (new categories shown) [Duarte Silva]: - http-userdir-enum.nse (auth,intrusive) - mysql-users.nse (auth,intrusive) - http-wordpress-enum.nse (auth,intrusive,vuln) - krb5-enum-users.nse (auth,intrusive) - snmp-win32-users.nse (default,auth,safe) - smtp-enum-users.nse (auth,external,intrusive) - ncp-enum-users.nse (auth,safe) - smb-enum-users.nse (auth,intrusive)o Made nbase compile with the clang compiler that is a part of Xcode 4.2. [Daniel J. Luke]o [NSE] Fix a nil table index bug discovered in the mongodb library. [Thomas Buchanan]o [NSE] Added XMPP support to ssl-cert.nse.o [NSE] Made http-wordpress-enum.nse able to get names of users who have no posts. [Duarte Silva]o Increased hop distance estimates from OS detection by one. The distance now counts the number of hops including the final one to the target, not just the number of intermediate nodes. The IPv6 distance calculation already worked this way. [David]
Nmap 5.61TEST5 [2012-03-09]o Integrated all of your IPv4 OS fingerprint submissions since June 2011 (about 1,900 of them). Added about 256 new fingerprints (and deleted some bogus ones), bringing the new total to 3,572. Additions include Apple iOS 5.01, OpenBSD 4.9 and 5.0, FreeBSD 7.0 through 9.0-PRERELEASE, and a ton of new WAPs, routers, and other devices. Many existing fingerprints were improved. For more details, see http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q1/431 [David Fifield]o Integrated all of your service/version detection fingerprints submitted since November 2010--more than 2,500 of them! Our signature count increased more than 10% to 7,423 covering 862 protocols. Some amusing and bizarre new services are described at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q1/359 [David Fifield]o Integrated your latest IPv6 OS submissions and corrections. We're still low on IPv6 fingerprints, so please scan any IPv6 systems you own or administer and submit them to http://nmap.org/submit/. Both new fingerprints (if Nmap doesn't find a good match) and corrections (if Nmap guesses wrong) are useful.o [NSE] Added a host-based registry which only persists (for the given host) until all scripts have finished scanning that host. The normal registry saves information until it is deleted or the Nmap scan ends. That is a waste of memory for information which doesn't need to persist that long. Use the host based registry instead if you can. See http://nmap.org/book/nse-api.html#nse-api-registry. [Patrik Karlsson]o IPv6 OS detection now includes a novelty detection system which avoids printing a match when an observed fingerprint is too different from fingerprints seen before. As the OS database is still small, this helps to avoid making (essentially) wild guesses when seeing a new operating system. [David Fifield]o Refactored the nsock library to add the nsock-engines system. This allows system-specific scalable IO notification facilities to be used while maintaining the portable Nsock API. This initial version comes with an epoll-based engine for Linux and a select-based fallback engine for all other operating systems. Also added the --nsock-engine option to Nmap, Nping and Ncat to enforce use of a specific Nsock IO engine. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Added 43(!) NSE scripts, bringing the total up to 340. They are all listed at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are below (authors are listed in brackets): + acarsd-info retrieves information from a listening acarsd daemon. Acarsd decodes ACARS (Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System) data in real time. [Brendan Coles] + asn-to-prefix produces a list of IP prefixes for a given AS number (ASN). It uses the external Shadowserver API (with their permission). [John Bond] + broadcast-dhcp6-discover sends a DHCPv6 request (Solicit) to the DHCPv6 multicast address, parses the response, then extracts and prints the address along with any options returned by the server. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-networker-discover discovers the EMC Networker backup software server on a LAN by using network broadcasts. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-pppoe-discover discovers PPPoE servers using the PPPoE Discovery protocol (PPPoED).

[Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-versant-locate discovers Versant object databases using the srvloc protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + broadcast-xdmcp-discover discovers servers running the X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) by sending a XDMCP broadcast request to the LAN. [Patrik Karlsson] + cccam-version detects the CCcam service (software for sharing subscription TV among multiple receivers). [David Fifield] + dns-client-subnet-scan performs a domain lookup using the edns-client-subnet option that adds support for adding subnet information to the query describing where the query is originating. The script uses this option to supply a number of geographically distributed locations in an attempt to enumerate as many different address records as possible. [John Bond] + dns-nsid retrieves information from a DNS nameserver by requesting its nameserver ID (nsid) and asking for its id.server and version.bind values. [John Bond] + dns-srv-enum enumerates various common service (SRV) records for a given domain name. The service records contain the hostname, port and priority of servers for a given service. [Patrik Karlsson] + eap-info enumerates the authentication methods offered by an EAP authenticator for a given identity or for the anonymous identity if no argument is passed. [Riccardo Cecolin] + http-auth-finder spiders a web site to find web pages requiring form-based or HTTP-based authentication. [Patrik Karlsson] + http-config-backup checks for backups and swap files of common content management system and web server configuration files. [Riccardo Cecolin] + http-generator displays the contents of the "generator" meta tag of a web page (default: /) if there is one. [Michael Kohl] + http-proxy-brute performs brute force password guessing against a HTTP proxy server. [Patrik Karlsson] + http-qnap-nas-info attempts to retrieve the model, firmware version, and enabled services from a QNAP Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. [Brendan Coles] + http-vuln-cve2009-3960 exploits cve-2009-3960 also known as Adobe XML External Entity Injection. [Hani Benhabiles] + http-vuln-cve2010-2861 executes a directory traversal attack against a ColdFusion server and tries to grab the password hash for the administrator user. It then uses the salt value (hidden in the web page) to create the SHA1 HMAC hash that the web server needs for authentication as admin. [Micah Hoffman] + iax2-brute performs brute force password auditing against the Asterisk IAX2 protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + membase-brute performs brute force password auditing against Couchbase Membase servers. [Patrik Karlsson] + membase-http-info retrieves information (hostname, OS, uptime, etc.) from the CouchBase Web Administration port. [Patrik Karlsson] + memcached-info retrieves information (including system architecture, process ID, and server time) from distributed memory object caching system memcached. [Patrik Karlsson] + mongodb-brute performs brute force password auditing against the MongoDB database. [Patrik Karlsson] + nat-pmp-mapport maps a WAN port on the router to a local port on the client using the NAT Port Mapping Protocol (NAT-PMP). [Patrik Karlsson] + ndmp-fs-info lists remote file systems by querying the remote device using the Network Data Management Protocol (ndmp). [Patrik Karlsson] + ndmp-version retrieves version information from the remote Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) service. [Patrik Karlsson] + nessus-xmlrpc-brute performs brute force password auditing against a Nessus vulnerability scanning daemon using the XMLRPC protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + redis-brute performs brute force passwords auditing against a Redis key-value store. [Patrik Karlsson] + redis-info retrieves information (such as version number and architecture) from a Redis key-value store. [Patrik Karlsson] + riak-http-info retrieves information (such as node name and architecture) from a Basho Riak distributed database using the HTTP protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + rpcap-brute performs brute force password auditing against the WinPcap Remote Capture Daemon (rpcap). [Patrik Karlsson] + rpcap-info connects to the rpcap service (provides remote sniffing capabilities through WinPcap) and retrieves interface information. [Patrik Karlsson] + rsync-brute performs brute force password auditing against the rsync remote file syncing protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + rsync-list-modules lists modules available for rsync (remote file sync) synchronization. [Patrik Karlsson] + socks-auth-info determines the supported authentication mechanisms of a remote SOCKS 5 proxy server. [Patrik Karlsson] + socks-brute performs brute force password auditing against SOCKS 5 proxy servers. [Patrik Karlsson] + url-snarf sniffs an interface for HTTP traffic and dumps any URLs, and their originating IP address. [Patrik Karlsson] + versant-info extracts information, including file paths, version and database names from a Versant object database. [Patrik Karlsson] + vmauthd-brute performs brute force password auditing against the VMWare Authentication Daemon (vmware-authd). [Patrik Karlsson] + voldemort-info retrieves cluster and store information from the Voldemort distributed key-value store using the Voldemort Native Protocol. [Patrik Karlsson] + xdmcp-discover requests an XDMCP (X display manager control protocol) session and lists supported authentication and authorization mechanisms. [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Added 14 new protocol libraries! They were all written by Patrik Karlsson, except for the EAP library by Riccardo Cecolin: + dhcp6 (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6) + eap (Extensible Authentication Protocol) + iax2 (Inter-Asterisk eXchange v2 VoIP protocol) + membase (Couchbase Membase TAP protocol) + natpmp (NAT Port Mapping Protocol) + ndmp (Network Data Management Protocol) + pppoe (Point-to-point protocol over Ethernet) + redis (in-memory key-value data store) + rpcap (WinPcap Remote Capture Deamon) + rsync (remote file sync) + socks (SOCKS 5 proxy protocol) + sslcert (for collecting SSL certificates and storing them in the host-based registry) + versant (an object database) + xdmcp (X Display Manager Control Protocol)o CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) OS classification is now supported for IPv6 OS detection. Previously it was only available for IPv4. [David Fifield]o [NSE] The host.os table is now a structured array of table that include OS class information and CPE. See http://nmap.org/book/nse-api.html for documentation of the new structure. [Henri Doreau, David]o [NSE] Service matches can now access CPE through the port.version.cpe array. [Henri Doreau]o Added a new --script-args-file option which allows you to specify the name of a file containing all of your desired NSE script arguments. The arguments may be separated with commas or newlines and may be overridden by arguments specified on the command-line with --script-args. [Daniel Miller]o Audited the nmap-service-probes database to remove all unused captures, fixing dozens of bugs with captures either being ignored or two fields erroneously using the same capture. [Lauri Kokkonen, David Fifield, and Rob Nicholls]o Added new version detection probes and match lines for: + Erlang Port Mapper Daemon + Couchbase Membase NoSQL database + Basho Riak distributed database protocol buffers client (PBC) + Tarantool in-memory data store [Patrik Karlsson]o Split the nmap-update client into its own binary RPM to avoid the Nmap RPM having a dependency on the Subversion and APR libraries. We're not yet distributing this binary nmap-update RPM since the system isn't complete, but the source code is available in the Nmap tarball and source RPM. [David]o [NSE] Added authentication support to the MongoDB library and modified existing scripts to support it. [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Added support to broadcast-listener for extracting address, native VLAN and management IP address from CDP packets. [Tom Sellers] o [NSE] Added RPC Call CALLIT to the RPC library and modified UDP sockets to be unconnected in order to support broadcast. [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Modified the ssl-cert and ssl-google-cert-catalog scripts to take advantage of the new sslcert library which retrieves and caches SSL certificates in the registry.o [NSE] Patch our bitcoin library to support recent changes in the BitCoin protocol. [Andrew Orr, Patrik Karlsson]o Fixed an error where very long messages could cause an assertion failure: "log_vwrite: vsnprintf failed. Even after increasing bufferlen to ---, Vsnprintf returned -1 (logt == 1)." This was reported by David Hingos.o Fixed an assertion failure that was printed when a fatal error occurred while an XML tag was incomplete: "!xml.tag_open, file ..\xml.cc, line 401". This was reported by David Hingos. [David Fifield]o [NSE] Added support for decoding EIGRP broadcasts from Cisco routers to broadcast-listener. [Tom Sellers]o [NSE] Added redirect support to the http library. All calls to http.get and http.head now transparently handle any HTTP redirects. The number and destination of redirects are limited by default to avoid endless loops or unwanted follows of redirects to different servers, but they can be configured. [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Modified the sql-injection script to use the httpspider library. [Lauri Kokkonen]o Added --with-apr and --with-subversion configuration options to support systems where those libraries aren't in the usual places. [David Fifield]o [NSE] Fixed a bunch of global access errors in various libraries reported by the nse_check_globals script. [Patrik Karlsson]o Fixed an assertion failure which could occur when connecting to an SSL server: nsock_core.c:186: update_events: Assertion `(ev_inc & ev_dec) == 0' failed. Thanks to Ron for reporting the bug and testing. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Added support to the DNS library for the CHAOS class and NSID requests. [John Bond]o [NSE] Changed the dnsbl library to take a much faster threaded approach to querying DNS blacklists. [Patrik Karlsson]o [NSE] Added new services and the ATTACK category to the dnsbl script. [Duarte Silva]o [NSE] Fixed a memory leak in PortList::setServiceProbeResults() which was noticed and reported by David Fifield. The leak was triggered by set_port_version calls from NSE. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Fixed a race condition in broadcast-dhcp-discover.nse that could cause responses to be missed on fast networks. It was noticed by Vasiliy Kulikov. [David Fifield]o Fixed a bug in reverse name resolution: a name of "." would leave the hostname unintialized and cause "Illegal character(s) in hostname" warnings. [Gisle Vanem]o Allow overriding the AR variable to use a different version of the ar library creation tool when creating the liblinear library. [Nuno Gonçalves]o Added vcredist2008_x86.exe to the Windows zip file. This installer from MS must be run on new Windows 2008 systems (those which don't already have it) before running Nmap. The Nmap Windows installer already takes care of this. [David Fifield]o Removed about 5MB of unnecessary DocBook XSL from the Nping docs directory. [David Fifield]o The packet library now uses consistent naming of the address fields for IPv4 and IPv6 packets (ip_bin_src, ip_bin_dst, ip_src, and ip_dst). [Henri Doreau]o Update to the latest MAC address prefix assignments from IEEE as of March 8, 2012. [Fyodor]o Fixed a problem in the ippackethdrinfo function which was leading to warning messages like: "BOGUS! Can't parse supposed IP packet" during certain IPv6 scans. [David Fifield]o Fixed building on Arch Linux. The PCAP_IS_SUITABLE test had to be modified to ensure that -lnl was passed on the build line. See the r28202 svn log for further information. [David Fifield]o Include net/if.h before net/if_arp.h in netutil.cc and tcpip.cc to hopefully fix some build problems on AIX 5.3.o [NSE] Added IPv6 support to firewalk.nse. [Henri Doreau]
Nmap 6.01 [2012-06-13]o [Zenmap] Fixed a hang that would occur on Mac OS X 10.7. A symptom of the hang was this message in the system console: "Couldn't recognize the image file format for file '/Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/share/zenmap/pixmaps/radialnet/padlock.png'". [David Fifield]o [Zenmap] Fixed a crash that happened when activating the host filter. File "zenmapCore\SearchResult.pyo", line 155, in match_os KeyError: 'osmatches' [jah]o Fixed an error that occurred when scanning certain addresses like 192.168.0.0 on Windows XP: get_srcaddr: can't connect socket: The requested address is not valid in its context. nexthost: failed to determine route to 10.80.0.0 [David Fifield]o Fixed a bug that caused Nmap to fail to find any network interface when at least one of them is in the monitor mode. The fix was to define the ARP_HRD_IEEE80211_RADIOTAP 802.11 radiotap header identifier in the libdnet-stripped code. Network interfaces that are in this mode are used by radiotap for 802.11 frame injection and reception. The bug was reported by Tom Eichstaedt and Henri Doreau. http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q2/449 http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q2/478 [Djalal Harouni, Henri Doreau]o Fixed the greppable output of hosts that time-out (when --host-timeout was used and the host timed-out after something was received from that host). This issue was reported by Matthew Morgan. [jah]o [Zenmap] Updated the version of Python used to build the Windows release from 2.7.1 to 2.7.3 to remove a false-positive security alarm flagged by tools such as Secunia PSI. There was a minor vulnerability in certain Python27.dll web functionality (which Nmap doesn't use anyway) and Secunia was flagging all software which includes that version of Python27.dll. This update should prevent the false alarm.
- [NSE] Added CPE to smb-os-discovery output.- [Ncat] Fixed the printing of warning messages for large arguments to the -i and -w options.- [Ncat] Shut down the write part of connected sockets in listen mode when stdin hits EOF, just as was already done in connect mode.- [Zenmap] Removed a crashing error that could happen when canceling a "Print to File" on Windows:> Traceback (most recent call last):> File "zenmapGUI\MainWindow.pyo", line 831, in _print_cb> File "zenmapGUI\Print.pyo", line 156, in run_print_operationGError: Error from StartDoc- Added some new checks for failed library calls. [Bill Parker]
· [Ncat] Added NCAT_PROTO, NCAT_REMOTE_ADDR, NCAT_REMOTE_PORT, NCAT_LOCAL_ADDR and NCAT_LOCAL_PORT environment variables being set in all --*-exec child processes.· [Nping] Nping now checks for a matching ICMP ID on echo replies, to avoid receiving crosstalk from other ping programs running at the same time. [David Fifield]· [NSE] Added http-adobe-coldfusion-apsa1301.nse. It exploits an authentication bypass vulnerability in Adobe Coldfusion servers. [Paulino Calderon]· [NSE] The ipOps.isPrivate library now considers the deprecated site-local prefix fec0::/10 to be private. [Marek Majkowski]· [Ncat] Added --lua-exec. This feature is basically an equivalent of ncat --sh-exec "lua " and allows you to run Lua scripts with Ncat, redirecting all stdin and stdout operations to the socket connection. [Jacek Wielemborek]· [NSE] Oops, there was a vulnerability in one of our 437 NSE scripts. If you ran the (fortunately non-default) http-domino-enum-passwords script with the (fortunately also non-default) domino-enum-passwords.idpath parameter against a malicious server, it could cause an arbitrarily named file to to be written to the client system. Thanks to Trustwave researcher Piotr Duszynski for discovering and reporting the problem. We've fixed that script, and also updated several other scripts to use a new stdnse.filename_escape function for extra safety. This breaks our record of never having a vulnerability in the 16 years that Nmap has existed, but that's still a fairly good run. [David, Fyodor]· [NSE] Added teamspeak2-version.nse by Marin Maržić.· Nmap's routing table is now sorted first by netmask, then by metric. Previously it was the other way around, which could cause a very general route with a low metric to be preferred over a specific route with a higher metric.· [Ncat] The -i option (idle timeout) now works in listen mode as well as connect mode. [Tomas Hozza]· Fixed a byte-ordering problem on little-endian architectures when doing idle scan with a zombie that uses broken ID incremements. [David Fifield]· [Ncat] Ncat now support chained certificates with the --ssl-cert option. [Greg Bailey]· Stop parsing TCP options after reaching EOL in libnetutil. Bug reported by Gustavo Moreira. [Henri Doreau]· [NSE] The dns-ip6-arpa-scan script now optionally accepts "/" syntax for a network mask. Based on a patch by Indula Nayanamith.· [Ncat] Reduced the default --max-conns limit from 100 to 60 on Windows, to stay within platform limitations. Suggested by Andrey Olkhin.· Fixed IPv6 routing table alignment on NetBSD.· [NSE] Added http-phpmyadmin-dir-traversal by Alexey Meshcheryakov.· Added a service probe for Erlang distribution nodes. [Michael Schierl]· Updated libdnet to not SIOCIFNETMASK before SIOCIFADDR on OpenBSD. This was reported to break on -current as of May 2013. [Giovanni Bechis]· Fixed address matching for SCTP (-PY) ping. [Marin Maržić]· Removed some non-ANSI-C strftime format strings ("%F") and locale-dependent formats ("%c") from NSE scripts and libraries. C99-specified %F was noticed by Alex Weber. [Daniel Miller]· [Zenmap] Added Polish translation by Jacek Wielemborek.· [NSE] Added http-coldfusion-subzero. It detects Coldfusion 9 and 10 vulnerable to a local file inclusion vulnerability and grabs the version, install path and the administrator credentials. [Paulino Calderon]· [Nsock] Added a minimal regression test suite for nsock. [Henri Doreau]· [NSE] Updated redis-brute.nse and redis-info.nse to work against the latest versions of redis server. [Henri Doreau]· [Ncat] Fixed errors in conneting to IPv6 proxies. [Joachim Henke]· Added a service probe for Minecraft servers. [Eric Davisson]· [NSE] Updated hostmap-bfk to work with the latest version of their website. [Paulino Calderon]· [NSE] Added XML structured output support to hostmap-bfk, hostmap-robtex, and hostmap-ip2hosts. [Paulino Calderon]· [NSE] Added hostmap-ip2hosts. It uses the service provider ip2hosts.com to list domain names pointing to the same IP address. [Paulino Calderon]· [NSE] Added http-vuln-cve2013-0156. It detects Ruby on Rails servers vulnerable to remote command execution (CVE-2013-0156). [Paulino Calderon]· Added a service probe for the Hazelcast data grid. [Pavel Kankovsky]· [NSE] Rewrote telnet-brute for better compatibility with a variety of telnet servers. [nnposter]· [Nsock] Added initial proxy support to nsock. Nsock based modules (version scan, nse) of nmap can now establish TCP connections through chains of proxies. HTTP CONNECT and SOCKS4 protocols are supported, with some limitations. [Henri Doreau]· Fixed a regression that changed the number of delimiters in machine output. [Daniel Miller]· [Zenmap] Updated the Italian translation. [Giacomo]· Handle ICMP type 11 (Time Exceeded) responses to port scan probes. Ports will be reported as "filtered", to be consistent with existing Connect scan results, and will have a reason of time-exceeded. DiabloHorn reported this issue via IRC. [Daniel Miller]· Add new decoders (BROWSER, DHCP6 and LLMNR) to broadcast-listener and changed output of some of the decoders slightly. [Patrik Karlsson]· Timeout script-args are now standardized to use the timespec that Nmap's command-line arguments take (5s, 5000ms, 1h, etc.). Some scripts that previously took an integer number of milliseconds will now treat that as a number of seconds if not explicitly denoted as ms. [Daniel Miller]· The list of nameservers on Windows now ignores nameservers from inactive interfaces. [David Fifield]· Namespace the pipes used to communicate with subprocesses by PID, to avoid multiple instances of Ncat from interfering with each other. Patch by Andrey Olkhin.· Nmap may now partially rearrange its target list for more efficient host groups. Previously, a single target with a different interface, or with an IP address the same as a that of a target already in the group, would cause the group to be broken off at whatever size it was. Now, we buffer a small number of such targets, and keep looking through the input for more targets to fill out the current group. [David Fifield]· [NSE] Changed ip-geolocation-geoplugin to use the web service's new output format. Reported by Robin Wood.· Limited the number of open sockets in ultra_scan to FD_SETSIZE. Very fast connect scans could write past the end of an fd_set and cause a variety of crashes: nmap: scan_engine.cc:978: bool ConnectScanInfo::clearSD(int): Assertion `numSDs > 0' failed. select failed in do_one_select_round(): Bad file descriptor (9) [David Fifield]· Fixed a bug that prevented Nmap from finding any interfaces when one of them had the type ARP_HDR_APPLETALK; this was the case for AppleTalk interfaces. However, This support is not complete since AppleTalk interfaces use different size hardware addresses than Ethernet. Nmap IP level scans should work without any problem, please refer to the '--send-ip' switch and to the following thread: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2013/q1/214 This bug was reported by Steven Gregory Johnson. [Daniel Miller]· [Nping] Nping now skips localhost targets for privileged pings (with an error message) because those generally don't work. [David Fifield]· [Ncat] Ncat now keeps running in connect mode after receiving EOF from the remote socket, unless --recv-only is in effect. [Tomas Hozza]· Routes are now sorted to prefer those with a lower metric. Retrieval of metrics is supported only on Linux and Windows. [David Fifield]· Packet trace of ICMP packets now include the ICMP ID and sequence number by default. [David Fifield]· [NSE] Added ike-version and a new ike library by Jesper Kückelhahn. Thanks also go to Roy Hills, who allowed the use of the signature database from the ike-scan tool.· [NSE] Fixed various NSEDoc bugs found by David Matousek.· [Zenmap] Zenmap now understands the NMAP_PRIVILEGED and NMAP_UNPRIVILEGED environment variables. [Tyler Wagner]· It's now possible to mix IPv4 range notation with CIDR netmasks in target specifications. For example, 192.168-170.4-100,200.5/16 is effectively the same as 192.168.168-170.0-255.0-255. [David Fifield]· Added nmap-fo.xsl, contributed by Tilik Ammon. This converts Nmap XML into XSL-FO, which can be converted into PDF using Apache FOP.· Increased the number of slack file descriptors not used during connect scan. Previously, the calculation did not consider the descriptors used by various open log files. Connect scans using a lot of sockets could fail with the message "Socket creation in sendConnectScanProbe: Too many open files". [David Fifield]· [Zenmap] Fixed internationalization files. Running in a language other than the default English would result in the error "ValueError: too many values to unpack". [David Fifield]· Changed the --webxml XSL stylesheet to point to the new location of nmap.xsl in the new respository, https://svn.nmap.org/nmap/docs/nmap.xsl This was noticed by Simon John.· [NSE] Made the vulnerability library able to preserve vulnerability information across multiple ports of the same host. The bug was reported by iphelix. [Djalal Harouni]· [NSE] Added ventrilo-info by Marin Maržić. This gets information from a Ventrilo VoIP server.· Removed the undocumented -q option, which renamed the nmap process to something like "pine".· Moved the Japanese man page from man1/jp to man1/ja. jp is a country code while ja is a language code. Reported by Christian Neukirchen.· [NSE] Added mysql-enum script which enumerates valid mysql server usernames [Aleksandar Nikolic]· [Nsock] Reworked the logging infrastructure to make it more flexible and consistent. Updated nmap, nping and ncat accordingly. Nsock log level can now be adjusted at runtime by pressing d/D in nmap. [Henri Doreau, David Fifield]· [NSE] Fixed scripts using unconnected UDP sockets. The bug was reported by Dhiru Kholia. [David Fifield]· [NSE] Added structured output to http-git.nse. [Alex Weber]· [NSE] Added murmur-version by Marin Maržić. This gets the server version and other information for Murmur, the server for the Mumble VoIP system.· Added a corresponding UDP payload for Murmur. [Marin Maržić]· [Zenmap] Fixed a crash that could be caused by opening the About dialog, using the window manager to close it, and opening it again. This was reported by Yashartha Chaturvedi and Jordan Schroeder. [David Fifield]· [Ncat] Made test-addrset.sh exit with nonzero status if any tests fail. This in turn causes "make check" to fail if any tests fail. [Andreas Stieger]· Fixed compilation with --without-liblua. The bug was reported by Rick Farina, Nikos Chantziaras, and Alex Turbov. [David Fifield]· Fixed CRC32c calculation (as used in SCTP scans) on 64-bit platforms. [Pontus Andersson]· [NSE] Added multicast group name output to broadcast-igmp-discovery.nse. [Vasily Kulikov]· [NSE] Added new fingerprints for http-enum: Sitecore, Moodle, typo3, SquirrelMail, RoundCube. [Jesper Kückelhahn]
Nmap 6.45 [2014-04-11]o NOTE THAT THE CHANGELOG FOR THIS RELEASE IS INCOMPLETE. We plan to finish it soon.o [NSE] Add ssl-heartbleed script to detect the Heartbleed bug in OpenSSL CVE-2014-0160 [Patrik Karlsson] o [NSE] Fixed an error-handling bug in socks-open-proxy that caused it to fail when scanning a SOCKS4-only proxy. Reported on IRC by Husky. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Improved ntp-info script to handle underscores in returned data. [nnposter]o [NSE] Add quake1-info script for retrieving server and player information from Quake 1 game servers. Reports potential DoS amplification factor. [Ulrik Haugen]o [NSE] Add unicode library for decoding and encoding UTF-8, UTF-16, CP437 and other character sets to Unicode code points. Scripts that previously just added or skipped nulls in UTF-16 data can use this to support non-ASCII characters. [Daniel Miller]o When doing a ping scan (-sn), the --open option will prevent down hosts from being shown when -v is specified. This aligns with similar output for other scan types. [Daniel Miller]o [Ncat] Added support for socks5 and corresponding regression tests. [Marek Lucaszuk, Petr Stodulka]o [NSE] Add http-ntlm-info script for getting server information from Web servers that require NTLM authentication. [Justin Cacak]o Added TCP support to dns.lua. [John Bond]o Added safe fd_set operations. This makes nmap fail gracefully instead of crashing when the number of file descriptors grows over FD_SETSIZE. Jacek Wielemborek reported the crash. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Added tls library for functions related to SSLv3 and TLS messages. Existing ssl-enum-ciphers, ssl-date, and tls-nextprotoneg scripts were updated to use this library. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Add sstp-discover script to discover Microsoft's Secure Socket Tunnelling Protocol (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc247338.aspx) [Niklaus Schiess]o [NSE] Added unittest library and NSE script for adding unit tests to NSE libraries. See unittest.lua for examples, and run `nmap --script=unittest --script-args=unittest.run -d` to run the tests. [Daniel Miller]o Updated bundled liblua from 5.2.2 to 5.2.3 (bugfix release) [Daniel Miller]o Added version detection signatures and probes for a bunch of Android remote mouse/keyboard servers, including AndroMouse, AirHID, Wifi-mouse, and RemoteMouse. [Paul Hemberger]o [NSE] Added allseeingeye-info for gathering information from games using this query protocol. A version detection probe was also added. [Marin Maržić]o [NSE] Add freelancer-info to gather information about the Freelancer game server. Also added a related version detection probe and UDP protocol payload for detecting the service. [Marin Maržić]o [Ncat] Fixed compilation when --without-liblua is specified in configure (an #include needed an ifdef guard). [Quentin Glidic]o [NSE] Add http-server-header script to grab the Server header as a last-ditch effort to get a software version. This can't be done as a softmatch because of the need to match non-HTTP services that obey some HTTP requests. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Add rfc868-time script to get the date and time from an RFC 868 Time server. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Add weblogic-t3-info script that detects the T3 RMI protocol used by Oracle/BEA Weblogic. Extracts the Weblogic version, as well [Alessandro Zanni, Daniel Miller]o Fixed a bug in libdnet with handling interfaces with AF_LINK addresses on FreeBSD >9 reported by idwer on IRC. Likely affected other *BSDs. Handled by skipping these non-network addresses. [Daniel Miller]o Fixed a bug with UDP checksum calculation. When the UDP checksum is zero (0x0000), it must be transmitted as 1's-complement -0 (0xffff) to avoid ambiguity with +0, which indicates no checksum was calculated. This affected UDP on IPv4 only. Reported by Michael Weber. [Daniel Miller]o [NSE] Removed a fixed value (28428) which was being set for the Request ID in the snmpWalk library function; a value based on nmap.clock_ms will now be set instead. [jah]o [NSE] Add http-iis-short-name-brute script that detects Microsoft IIS servers vulnerable to a file/folder name disclosure and a denial of service vulnerability. The script obtains the "shortnames" of the files and folders in the webroot folder. [Paulino Calderon]o Idle scan now supports IPv6. IPv6 packets don't usually come with fragments identifiers like IPv4 packets do, so new techniques had to be developed to make idle scan possible. The implementation is by Mathias Morbitzer, who made it the subject of his master's thesis.o [NSE] Add http-dlink-backdoor script that detects DLink routers with firmware backdoor allowing admin access over HTTP interface. [Patrik Karlsson]o The ICMP ID of ICMP probes is now matched against the sent ICMP ID, to reduce the chance of false matches. Patch by Chris Johnson.o [NSE] Made telnet-brute support multiple parallel guessing threads, reuse connections, and support password-only logins. [nnposter]o [NSE] Made the table returned by ssh1.fetch_host_key contain a "key" element, like that of ssh2.fetch_host_key. This fixed a crash in the ssh-hostkey script reported by Dan Farmer and Florian Pelgrim. The "key" element of ssh2.fetch_host_key now is base64-encoded, to match the format used by the known_hosts file. [David Fifield]o [Nsock] Handle timers and timeouts via a priority queue (using a heap) for improved performance. Nsock now only iterates over events which are completed or expired instead of inspecting the entire event set at each iteration. [Henri Doreau]o [NSE] Update dns-cache-snoop script to use a new list of top 50 domains rather than a 2010 list. [Nicolle Neulist]o [NSE] Added the qconn-exec script by Brendan Coles, which tests the QNX QCONN service for remote command execution.o [Zenmap] Fixed a crash that would happen when you entered a search term starting with a colon: "AttributeError: 'FilteredNetworkInventory' object has no attribute 'match_'". Reported by Kris Paernell. [David Fifield]o [Ncat] Added NCAT_PROTO, NCAT_REMOTE_ADDR, NCAT_REMOTE_PORT, NCAT_LOCAL_ADDR and NCAT_LOCAL_PORT environment variables being set in all --*-exec child processes.
