# Nmap Changelog ($Id$); -*-text-*-
o [NSE] ssl-enum-ciphers will give a failing score to any server with an RSA
certificate whose public key uses an exponent of 1. [Daniel Miller]
o Update oldest supported Windows version to Vista (Windows 6.0). This enables
the use of the poll Nsock engine. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#345][Zenmap] On Windows, save Zenmap's stderr output to a writeable
location (%LOCALAPPDATA%\zenmap.exe.log or %TEMP%\zenmap.exe.log) instead of
next to the zenmap.exe executable. This avoids a warning message when closing
Zenmap if it produced any stderr output. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#379][NSE] Fix http-iis-short-name-brute to report non vulnerable hosts.
Reported by alias1. [Paulino Calderon]
o [GH#283][Nsock] Avoid "unknown protocol:0" debug messages and an "Unknown
address family 0" crash on Windows and other platforms that do not set the
src_addr argument to recvfrom for TCP sockets. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE][GH#371] Fix mysql-audit by adding needed library requires to the
mysql-cis.audit file. The script would fail with "Failed to load rulebase"
message. [Paolo Perego]
o Retrieve the correct network prefix length for an adapter on Windows. If more
than one address was configured on an adapter, the same prefix length would
be used for both. This incorrect behavior is still used on Windows XP and
earlier. Reported by Niels Bohr. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] ssl-enum-ciphers will cap the score of an RC4-ciphersuite handshake at
C and output a warning referencing RFC 7465.
o Changed libdnet-stripped to avoid bailing completely when an interface is
encountered with an unsupported hardware address type. Caused "INTERFACES:
NONE FOUND!" bugs in Nmap whenever Linux kernel added new hardware address
types. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE][GH#362] Added support for LDAP over udp to ldap-rootdse.nse.
Also added version detection and information extraction to match the
new LDAP LDAPSearchReq and LDAPSearchReqUDP probes. [Tom Sellers]
o [GH#354] Added new version detection Probes for LDAP services, LDAPSearchReq
and LDAPSearchReqUDP. The second is Microsoft Active Directory specific. The
Probes will elicit responses from target services that allow better finger
-printing and information extraction. Also added nmap-payload entry for
detecting LDAP on udp. [Tom Sellers]
o [NSE] Added vnc-title for logging in to VNC servers and grabbing the desktop
title, geometry, and color depth. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] More VNC updates: Support for VeNCrypt and Tight auth types, output of
authentication sub-types in vnc-info, and all zero-authentication types are
recognized and reported. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Update to enable smb-os-discovery to augment version detection
for certain SMB related services using data that the script discovers.
[Tom Sellers]
o Improved version detection and descriptions for Microsoft and Samba
SMB services. Also addresses certain issues with OS identification.
[Tom Sellers]
Nmap 7.12 [2016-03-29]
o [Zenmap] Avoid file corruption in zenmap.conf, reported as files containing
many null ("\x00") characters. Example exceptions:
TypeError: int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'list'
ValueError: unable to parse colour specification
o [NSE] VNC updates including vnc-brute support for TLS security type and
negotiating a lower RFB version if the server sends an unknown higher
version. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Added STARTTLS support for VNC, NNTP, and LMTP [Daniel Miller]
o Added new service probes and match lines for OpenVPN on UDP and TCP.
Nmap 7.11 [2016-03-22]
o [NSE][GH#341] Added support for diffie-hellman-group-exchange-* SSH key
exchange methods to ssh2.lua, allowing ssh-hostkey to run on servers that
only support custom Diffie-Hellman groups. [Sergey Khegay]
o [NSE] Added support in sslcert.lua for Microsoft SQL Server's TDS protocol,
so you can now grab certs with ssl-cert or check ciphers with
ssl-enum-ciphers. [Daniel Miller]
o [Zenmap] Fix a crash when setting default window geometry:
TypeError: argument of type 'int' is not iterable
o [Zenmap] Fix a crash when displaying the date from an Nmap XML file due to an
empty or unknown locale:
File "zenmapCore/NmapParser.py", line 627, in get_formatted_date
locale.getpreferredencoding())
LookupError: unknown encoding:
o [Zenmap] Fix a crash due to incorrect file paths when installing to
/usr/local prefix. Example:
Exception: File '/home/blah/.zenmap/scan_profile.usp' does not exist or could not be found!
Nmap 7.10 [2016-03-17]
o [NSE] Added 12 NSE scripts from 7 authors, bringing the total up to 527!
They are all listed at https://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are below
(authors are listed in brackets):
+ [GH#322] http-apache-server-status parses the server status page of
Apache's mod_status. [Eric Gershman]
+ http-vuln-cve2013-6786 detects a XSS and URL redirection vulnerability in
Allegro RomPager web server. Also added a fingerprint for detecting
CVE-2014-4019 to http-fingerprints.lua. [Vlatko Kosturjak]
+ [GH#226] http-vuln-cve2014-3704 detects and exploits the "Drupalgeddon"
pre-auth SQL Injection vulnerability in Drupal. [Mariusz Ziulek]
+ imap-ntlm-info extracts hostname and sometimes OS version from
NTLM-auth-enabled IMAP services. [Justin Cacak]
+ ipv6-multicast-mld-list discovers IPv6 multicast listeners with MLD probes.
The discovery is the same as targets-ipv6-multicast-mld, but the subscribed
addresses are decoded and listed. [Alexandru Geana, Daniel Miller]
+ ms-sql-ntlm-info extracts OS version and sometimes hostname from MS SQL
Server instances via the NTLM challenge message. [Justin Cacak]
+ nntp-ntlm-info extracts hostname and sometimes OS version from
NTLM-auth-enabled NNTP services. [Justin Cacak]
+ pop3-ntlm-info extracts hostname and sometimes OS version from
NTLM-auth-enabled POP3 services. [Justin Cacak]
+ rusers retrieves information about logged-on users from the rusersd RPC
service. [Daniel Miller]
+ [GH#333] shodan-api queries the Shodan API (https://www.shodan.io) and
retrieves open port and service info from their Internet-wide scan data.
[Glenn Wilkinson]
+ smtp-ntlm-info extracts hostname and sometimes OS version from
NTLM-auth-enabled SMTP and submission services. [Justin Cacak]
+ telnet-ntlm-info extracts hostname and sometimes OS version from
NTLM-auth-enabled Telnet services. [Justin Cacak]
o Updated the OpenSSL shipped with our binary builds (Windows, OS X, and Linux
RPM) to 1.0.2g with SSLv2 enabled.

o [NSE] Upgrade to http-form-brute allowing correct handling of token-based
CSRF protections and cookies. Also, a simple database of common login forms
supports Django, Wordpress, MediaWiki, Joomla, and others. [Daniel Miller]
o [Zenmap] [GH#247] Remember window geometry (position and size) from the
previous time Zenmap was run. [isjing]
o New service probe for CORBA GIOP (General Inter-ORB Protocol) detection
should elicit a not-found exception from GIOP services that do not respond to
non-GIOP probes. [Quentin Hardy]
o [GH#284] Fix retrieval of route netmasks on FreeBSD. IPv6 routes were given
/32 netmasks regardless of actual netmask configured, resulting in failed
routing. Reported by Martin Gysi. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#272][GH#269] Give option parsing errors after the usage statement, or
avoid printing the usage statement in some cases. The options summary has
grown quite large, requiring users to scroll to the top to see the error
message. [Abhishek Singh]
o [GH#249][Nsock] Avoid a crash on Windows reported by users using Zenmap's
Slow Comprehensive Scan profile. In the case of unknown OpenSSL errors,
ERR_reason_error_string would return NULL, which could not be printed with
the "%s" format string. Reported by Dan Baxter. [Gisle Vanem, Daniel Miller]
o [GH#293][Zenmap] Fix a regression in our build that caused copy-and-paste to
not work in Zenmap on Windows.
o Changed Nmap's idea of reserved and private IP addresses to include
169.254/16 (RFC3927) and remove 6/8, 7/8, and 55/8 networks. This list, in
libnetutil's isipprivate function, is used to filter -iR randomly generated
targets. The newly-valid address ranges belong to the U.S. Department of
Defense, so users wanting to avoid those ranges should use their own
exclusion lists with --exclude or --exclude-file. [Bill Parker, Daniel
Miller]
o Allow the -4 option for Nmap to indicate IPv4 address family. This is the
default, and using the option doesn't change anything, but does make it more
explicit which address family you want to scan. Using -4 with -6 is an error.
[Daniel Miller]
o [GH#265] When provided a verbosity of 0 (-v0), Nmap will not output any text to the
screen. This happens at the time of argument parsing, so the usual meaning of
"verbosity 0" is preserved. [isjing]
o [NSE][GH#314] Fix naming of SSL2_RC2_128_CBC_WITH_MD5 and
SSL2_RC2_128_CBC_EXPORT40_WITH_MD5 ciphers in sslv2 in order to match the
draft specification from Mozilla. [Bertrand Bonnefoy-Claudet]
o [NSE][GH#320] Add STARTTLS support to sslv2 to enable SSLv2 detection
against services that are not TLS encrypted by default but that support
post connection upgrade. This will enable more comprehensive detection
of SSLv2 and DROWN (CVE-2016-0800) attack oracles. [Tom Sellers]
o [NSE][GH#301] Added default credential checks for RICOH Web Image Monitor and
BeEF to http-default-accounts. [nnposter]
o Properly display Next-hop MTU value from ICMP Type 3 Code 4 Fragmentation
Required messages when tracing packets or in Nping output. Improper offset
meant we were printing the total IP length. [Sławomir Demeszko]
o [NSE] Added support for DHCP options "TFTP server name" and "Bootfile name"
to dhcp.lua and enabled checking for options with a code above 61 by default.
[Mike Rykowski]
o [NSE] whois-ip: Don't request a remote IANA assignments data file when the
local filesystem will not permit the file to cached in a local file. [jah]
o [NSE] Updated http-php-version hash database to cover all versions from PHP
4.1.0 to PHP 5.4.45. Based on scans of a few thousand PHP web servers pulled
from Shodan API (https://www.shodan.io/) [Daniel Miller]
o Use the same ScanProgressMeter for FTP bounce scan (-b) as for the other scan
types, allowing periodic status updates with --stats-every or keypress
events. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#274] Use a shorter pcap_select timeout on OpenBSD, just as we do for OS
X, old FreeBSD, and Solaris, which use BPF for packet capture and do not have
properly select-able fds. Fix by OpenBSD port maintainer [David Carlier]
o Print service info in grepable output for ports which are not listed in
nmap-services when a service tunnel (SSL) is detected. Previously, the
service info ("ssl|unknown") was not printed unless the service inside the
tunnel was positively identified. http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q4/260
[Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] [GH#242] Fix multiple false-positive sources in http-backup-agent.
[Tom Sellers]
Nmap 7.01 [2015-12-09]
o Switch to using gtk-mac-bundler and jhbuild for building the OS X installer.
This promises to reduce a lot of the problems we've had with local paths and
dependencies using the py2app and macports build system. [Daniel Miller]
o The Windows installer is now built with NSIS 2.47 which features LoadLibrary
security hardening to prevent DLL hijacking and other unsafe use of temporary
directories. Thanks to Stefan Kanthak for reporting the issue to NSIS and to
us and the many other projects that use it.
o Updated the OpenSSL shipped with our binary builds (Windows, OS X, and RPM)
to 1.0.2e.
o [Zenmap] [GH#235] Fix several failures to launch Zenmap on OS X. The new
build process eliminates these errors:
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/Resources/etc/pango/pangorc.in'
LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed for the application /Applications/Zenmap.app with error -10810.
o [NSE] [GH#254] Update the TLSSessionRequest probe in ssl-enum-ciphers to
match the one in nmap-service-probes, which was fixed previously to correct a
length calculation error. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] [GH#251] Correct false positives and unexpected behavior in http-*
scripts which used http.identify_404 to determine when a file was not found
on the target. The function was following redirects, which could be an
indication of a soft-404 response. [Tom Sellers]
o [NSE] [GH#241] Fix a false-positive in hnap-info when the target responds
with 200 OK to any request. [Tom Sellers]
o [NSE] [GH#244] Fix an error response in xmlrpc-methods when run against a
non-HTTP service. The expected behavior is no output. [Niklaus Schiess]
o [NSE] Fix SSN validation function in http-grep, reported by Bruce Barnett.
Nmap 7.00 [2015-11-19]
o This is the most important release since Nmap 6.00 back in May 2012!
For a list of the most significant improvements and new features,
see the announcement at: https://nmap.org/7
o [NSE] Added 6 NSE scripts from 6 authors, bringing the total up to 515!
They are all listed at https://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are below
(authors are listed in brackets):
+ targets-xml extracts target addresses from previous Nmap XML results files.
[Daniel Miller]
+ [GH#232] ssl-dh-params checks for problems with weak, non-safe, and
export-grade Diffie-Hellman parameters in TLS handshakes. This includes the
LOGJAM vulnerability (CVE-2015-4000). [Jacob Gajek]
+ nje-node-brute does brute-forcing of z/OS JES Network Job Entry node names.
[Soldier of Fortran]
+ ip-https-discover detectings support for Microsoft's IP over HTTPS
tunneling protocol. [Niklaus Schiess]
+ [GH#165] broadcast-sonicwall-discover detects and extracts information from
SonicWall firewalls. [Raphael Hoegger]
+ [GH#38] http-vuln-cve2014-8877 checks for and optionally exploits a
vulnerability in CM Download Manager plugin for Wordpress. [Mariusz Ziulek]
o [Ncat] [GH#151] [GH#142] New option --no-shutdown prevents Ncat from shutting
down when it reads EOF on stdin. This is the same as traditional netcat's
"-d" option. [Adam Saponara]
o [NSE] [GH#229] Improve parsing in http.lua for multiple Set-Cookie headers in
a single response. [nnposter]
Nmap 6.49BETA6 [2015-11-03]
o Integrated all of your IPv6 OS fingerprint submissions from April to October
(only 9 of them!). We are steadily improving the IPv6 database, but we need
your submissions. The classifier added 3 new groups, bringing the new total
to 93. Highlights: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q4/61 [Daniel Miller]
o Integrated all of your IPv4 OS fingerprint submissions from February to
October (1065 of them). Added 219 fingerprints, bringing the new total to
4985. Additions include Linux 4.1, Windows 10, OS X 10.11, iOS 9, FreeBSD
11.0, Android 5.1, and more. Highlights:
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q4/60 [Daniel Miller]
o Integrated all of your service/version detection fingerprints submitted from
February to October (800+ of them). The signature count went up 2.5% to
10293. We now detect 1089 protocols, from afp, bitcoin, and caldav to
xml-rpc, yiff, and zebra. Highlights: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q4/62
[Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Added 10 NSE scripts from 5 authors, bringing the total up to 509!
They are all listed at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are below
(authors are listed in brackets):
+ knx-gateway-discover and knx-gateway-info scripts gather information from
multicast and unicast KNX gateways, which connect home automation systems
to IP networks. [Niklaus Schiess, Dominik Schneider]
+ http-ls parses web server directory index pages with optional recursion.
[Pierre Lalet]
+ xmlrpc-methods perfoms introspection of xmlrpc services and lists methods
and their descriptions. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ http-fetch can be used like wget or curl to fetch all files, specific
filenames, or files that match a given pattern. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ http-svn-enum enumerates users of a Subversion repository by examining
commit logs. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ http-svn-info requests information from a Subversion repository, similar to
the "svn info" command. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ hnap-info detects and outputs info for Home Network Administration Protocol
devices. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ http-webdav-scan detects WebDAV servers and reports allowed methods and
directory listing. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ tor-consensus-checker checks the target's address with the Tor directory
authorities to determine if a target is a known Tor node. [Jiayi Ye]
o [NSE] Several scripts have been split, combined, or renamed:
+ [GH#171] smb-check-vulns has been split into:
* smb-vuln-conficker
* smb-vuln-cve2009-3103
* smb-vuln-ms06-025
* smb-vuln-ms07-029
* smb-vuln-regsvc-dos
* smb-vuln-ms08-067
The scripts now use the vulns library, and the "unsafe" script-arg has been
replaced by putting the scripts into the "dos" category. [Paulino Calderon]
+ http-email-harvest was removed, as the new http-grep does email address
scraping by default. [Gyanendra Mishra]
+ http-drupal-modules was renamed to http-drupal-enum. Extended to enumerate
both themes and modules of Drupal installaions. [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [Ncat] [GH#193] Fix Ncat listen mode over Unix sockets (named pipes) on OS X.
This was crashing with the error:
Ncat: getnameinfo failed: Undefined error: 0 QUITTING.
Fixed by forcing the name to "localhost" [Michael Wallner]
o [Zenmap] Fix a crash in Zenmap when using Compare Results:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_nmap_output'
[Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] [GH#194] Add support for reading fragmented TLS messages to
ssl-enum-ciphers. [Jacob Gajek]
o [GH#51] Added IPv6 support to nmap_mass_rdns, improved reverse DNS cache,
and refactored DNS code to improve readability and
extensibility. All in all, this makes the rDNS portion of IPv6 scans
much faster. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o [NSE] Added NTLM brute support to http-brute. [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [NSE] Added NTLM authentication support to http.lua and a related function to create
an ntlm v2 session response in smbauth.lua. [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [NSE] [GH#106] Added a new NSE module, ls.lua, for accumulating and
outputting file and directory listings. The afp-ls, nfs-ls, and smb-ls
scripts have been converted to use this module. [Pierre Lalet]
o [NSE] bacnet-info.nse and s7-info.nse were added to the version category.
[Paulino Calderon]
o [NSE] Added 124 new identifiers to bacnet-info.nse vendor database.
[Paulino Calderon]
o [NSE] Fixed bacnet-info.nse to bind to the service port detected
during scan instead of fixed port. [Paulino Calderon]
o [NSE] Enhanced reporting of elliptic curve names and strengths in
ssl-enum-ciphers. The name of the curve is now reported instead of just "ec"
[Brandon Paulsen]
o [GH#75] Normalize Makefile targets to use the same verb-project format, e.g.
build-ncat, check-zenmap, install-nping, clean-nsock [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o [NSE] Added builtin pattern and multiple pattern search to http-grep. [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [NSE] http-crossdomainxml is now http-cross-domain-policy and supports client
access policies and uses the new SLAXML parser. [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [NSE] Added a patch for vulns lib that allows list of tables to be submitted
to fields in the vulns report. [Jacob Gajek]
o [NSE] Added additional checks for successful PUT request in http-put.
[Oleg Mitrofanov]
o [NSE] Added an update for http-methods that checks all possible methods not in
Allow or Public header of OPTIONS response. [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [NSE] Added SLAXML, an XML parser in Lua originally written by Gavin Kistner
(a.k.a. Phrogz). [Gyanendra Mishra]
o [NSE] [GH#122] Update the snmp-brute and other snmp-* scripts to use the
creds library to store brute-forced snmp community strings. This allows Nmap
to use the correct brute-forced string for each host. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o Several improvements to TLS/SSL detection in nmap-service-probes. A new
probe, TLSSessionReq, and improvements to default SSL ports should help speed
up -sV scans. http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q2/17 [Daniel Miller]
o [Nsock] Clean up the API so that nsp_* calls are now nsock_pool_* and nsi_*
are nsock_iod_*. Simplify Nsock SSL init API, and make logging global to the
library instead of associated with a nspool. [Henri Doreau]
o [GH#181] The configure script now prints a summary of configured options.
Most importantly, it warns if OpenSSL was not found, since most users will
want this library compiled in. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o Define TCP Options for SYN scan in nmap.h instead of literally throughout.
This string is used by p0f and other IDS to detect Nmap scans, so having it a
compile-time option is a step towards better evasion. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#51] Nmap's parallel reverse-DNS resolver now handles IPv6 addresses. This
should result in faster -6 scans. The old behavior is available with
--system-dns. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o [NSE] Fix a couple odd bugs in NSE command-line parsing. Most notably,
--script broadcast-* will now work (generally, wildcards with scripts whose
name begins with a category name were not working properly). [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] [GH#113] http-form-fuzzer will now stop increasing the size of a
request when an HTTP 413 or 414 error indicates the web server will not
accept a larger request. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o [NSE] [GH#159] Add the ability to tag credentials in the creds library with
freeform text for easy retrieval. This gives necessary granularity to track
credentials to multiple web apps on a single host+port. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
Nmap 6.49BETA5 [2015-09-25]
o Work around a bug which could cause Nmap to hang when running
multiple instances at once on Windows. The actual bug appears to be
in the WinPCAP driver in that it hanges when accessed via
OpenServiceA by multiple processes at once. So for now we have added
a mutex to prevent even multiple Nmap processes from making
concurrent calls to this part of WinPcap. We've received the reports
from multiple users on Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 and
this fix seems to resolve the hang for them. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#212][NSE] Fix http.get_url function which was wrongly attempting
non-SSL HTTP requests first when passed https URLs. [jah]
o [GH#201] Fix Ndiff interpreter path problems in the OS X .dmg
installer which could prevent Ndiff (and the related Zenmap "compare
results" window) from working on OS X in some cases. [Daniel Miller]
o Fix Nmap's DTD, which did not recognize that the script element
could contain character data when a script returns a number or a
boolean. [Jonathan Daugherty]
o [GH#172][NSE] Fix reporting of DH parameter sizes by
ssl-enum-ciphers. The number shown was the length in bytes, not bits
as it should have been. Reported by Michael Staruch. [Brandon
Paulsen]
o Our Windows Nmap packages are now compiled with the older platform
toolset (v120_xp rather than v120) and so they may work with Windows
XP again for the dwindling number of users still on that operating
system.
o [GH#34] Disable TPACKET_V3 in our included libpcap. This version of
the Linux kernel packet ring API has problems that result in lots of
lost packets. This patch falls back to TPACKET_V2 or earlier
versions if available. [nnposter]
o [NSE] Check for socket errors in iscsi.lua. This was causing the
iscsi-info script to crash against some services. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Fix http-useragent-tester, which was using cached HTTP
responses instead of testing new User-Agent strings. [Daniel Miller]
o Output a warning when deprecated options are used, and suggest the
preferred option. Currently deprecated: -i -o -m -sP -P0 -PN -oM
-sR. The warning is only visible with -v. [Daniel Miller]
o Add a fatal error for options like -oG- which is interpreted as the
deprecated -o option, outputting to a file named "G-", instead of
the expected behavior of -oG - (Grepable output to stdout). [Daniel
Miller]
o [GH#196] Fix raw packet sending on FreeBSD 10.0 and later. FreeBSD
changed byte order of the IPv4 stack, so SYN scan and other raw
packet functions were broken. [Edward Napierała] Also reported in
[GH#50] by Olli Hauer.
o [GH#183] Fix compilation on Visual Studio 2010, which failed with
error: "service_scan.cc(2559): error C2065: 'EOPNOTSUPP' :
undeclared identifier" [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#115][NSE] ssl-enum-ciphers will still produce output if OpenSSL
(required for certificate parsing) is not available. In cases where
handshake strength depends on the certificate, it will be reported
as "unknown". [jrchamp]
Nmap 6.49BETA4 [2015-07-06]
o Fix a hang on OS X in Zenmap's Topology page with error
"zenmap_wrapper.py[857]: GError: Couldn't recognize the image file format for
file '/Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/share/zenmap/pixmaps/radialnet/padlock.png'
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q3/8 [Daniel Miller]
o Fix a small memory leak for each target specified as a hostname which fails
to resolve. [Daniel Miller]
o Allow 'make check' to succeed when Nmap is configured without OpenSSL
support. This was broken due to our NSE unittest library expecting to be able
to load every library without error. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Enable ssl-enum-ciphers to safely scan servers with a long handshake
intolerance issue which resulted in incomplete results when the handshake was
greater than 255 bytes. [Jacob Gajek, Daniel Miller]
o [Ncat] Fix a write overrun in Ncat that could cause a segfault if the -g
(source route) option was given too many times. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] [GH#168] Allow ssl-enum-ciphers to run on non-typical ports when it is
selected by name. It will now send a service detection probe if the port is
not a typical SSL port and version scan (-sV) was not used. [Daniel Miller]
Nmap 6.49BETA3 [2015-06-25]
o [GH#166] Fix Ncat listen mode on Solaris and other platforms where struct sockaddr
does not have a sa_len member. This also affected use of the -p and -s
options. Brandon Haberfeld reported the crash. [Daniel Miller]
o [GH#164] Fix a Zenmap failure ot open on OS X with the error:
"dyld: Symbol not found: _iconv Referenced from: /usr/lib/libcups.2.dylib"
We had to remove the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable from
zenmap_wrapper.py. Reported by Robert Strom. [Daniel Miller]
o Report our https URL (https://nmap.org) in more places rather than
our non-SSL one. [David Fifield]
o [NSE] Fix Diffie-Hellman parameter extraction in tls.lua. [Jacob Gajek]
Nmap 6.49BETA2 [2015-06-16]
o [GH#154] Fix a crash (assertion error) when Nmap recieves an ICMP Host
Unreachable message.
o [GH#158] Fix a configure failure when Python is not present, but no Python
projects were requested. [Gioacchino Mazzurco]
o [GH#161] [Zenmap] Fix Zenmap on OS X which was failing with
zipimport.ZipImportError due to architecture mismatch.
o [NSE] Remove ahbl.org checks from dnsbl.lua, since the service was shut down.
[Forrest B.]
Nmap 6.49BETA1 [2015-06-03]
o Integrated all of your IPv4 OS fingerprint submissions from May 2014 to
February 2015 (1900+ of them). Added 281 fingerprints, bringing the new total
to 4766. Addtions include Linux 3.18, Windows 8.1, OS X 10.10, Android 5.0,
FreeBSD 10.1, OpenBSD 5.6, and more. Highlights:
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q2/169 [Daniel Miller]
o Integrated all of your service/version detection fingerprints submitted from
June 2013 to February 2015 (2500+ of them). The signature count soared over
the 10000 mark, a 12% increase. We now detect 1062 protocols, from http,
telnet, and ftp to jute, bgp, and slurm. Highlights:
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q2/171 [Daniel Miller]
o Integrated all of your IPv6 OS fingerprint submissions from June 2013 to
April 2015 (only 97 of them!). We are steadily improving the IPv6 database,
but we need your submissions. The classifier added 9 new groups, bringing the
new total to 90. Highlights: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q2/170 [Daniel
Miller]
o Nmap now has an official bug tracker! We are using Github Issues, which you
can reach from http://issues.nmap.org/. We welcome your bug reports,
enhancement requests, and code submissions via the Issues and Pull Request
features of Github (https://github.com/nmap/nmap), though the repository
itself is just a mirror of our authoritative Subversion repository.
o [Zenmap] New Chinese-language (zh) translation from Jie Jiang, new Hindi (hi)
translation by Gyanendra Mishra, and updated translations for German (de,
Chris Leick), Italian (it, Jan Reister), Polish (pl, Jacek Wielemborek), and
French (fr, MaZ)
o Added options --data <hex string> and --data-string <string> to send custom
payloads in scan packet data. [Jay Bosamiya]
o --reason is enabled for verbosity > 2, and now includes the TTL of received
packets in Normal output (this was already present in XML) [Jay Bosamiya]
o Fix ICMP Echo (-PE) host discovery for IPv6, broken since 6.45, caused by
failing to set the ICMP ID for outgoing packets which is used to match
incoming responses. [Andrew Waters]
o Solve a crash on Windows (reported on Windows 8.1 on Surface Pro 3) caused by
passing a NULL pointer to a WinPcap function that then tries to write an
error message to it. [Peter Malecka]
o Enhance Nmap's tcpwrapped service detection by using a shorter timeout for
the tcpwrapped designation. This prevents falsely labeling services as
tcpwrapped which merely have a read timeout shorter than 6 seconds. Full
discussion: http://issues.nmap.org/39 [nnposter, Daniel Miller]
o All nmap.org pages are now available SSL-secured to improve privacy
and ensure your binaries can't be tampered with in transit. So be
sure to download from https://nmap.org/download.html . We will soon
remove the non-SSL version of the site. We still offer GPG-signed
binaries as well: https://nmap.org/book/install.html#inst-integrity
o [NSE] Added 25 NSE scripts from 17 authors, bringing the total up to 494!
They are all listed at https://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are below

+ targets-ipv6-wordlist generates target IPv6 addresses from a wordlist made
of hexadecimal characters. [Raúl Fuentes]
o Update our Windows build system to VS 2013 on Windows 8.1. Also, we now build
our included OpenSSL with DEP, ASLR, and SafeSEH enabled. [Daniel Miller]
o Our OS X installer is now built for a minimum supported version of 10.8
(Mountain Lion), a much-needed update from 10.5 (Leopard). Additionally,
OpenSSL is now statically linked, allowing us to distribute the latest from
Macports instead of being subjected to the 0.9.8 branch still in use as of
10.9. [Daniel Miller]
o Add 2 more ASCII-art configure splash images to be rotated randomly with the
traditional dragon image. New ideas for other images to use here may be sent

o Solve a crash on Windows (reported on Windows 8.1 on Surface Pro 3) caused by
passing a NULL pointer to a WinPcap function that then tries to write an
error message to it. [Peter Malecka]
o Fix compilation and several bugs on AIX. [Daniel Miller]
o Fix a bug in libdnet-stripped on Solaris that resulted in the wrong MAC
address being detected for all interfaces.
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q2/1 [Daniel Miller]
o New features for the IPv6 OS detection engine allow for better classification
of systems: IPv6 guessed initial hop limit (TTL) and ratio of TCP initial
window size to maximum segment size. [Alexandru Geana]
o [NSE] Rework ssl-enum-ciphers to actually score the strength of the SSL/TLS
handshake, including certificate key size and DH parameters if applicable.
This is similar to Qualys's SSL Labs scanner, and means that we no longer
maintain a list of scores per ciphersuite. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Improved http-form-brute autodetection and behavior to handle more
unusual-but-valid HTML syntax, non-POST forms, success/failure testing on
HTTP headers, and more. [nnposter]
o [NSE] Reduce many NSE default timeouts and base them on Nmap's detected
timeouts for those hosts from the port scan phase. Scripts which take timeout
script-args can now handle 's' and 'ms' suffixes, just like Nmap's own
options. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Remove db2-discover, as its functionality was performed by service
version detection since the broadcast portion was separated into
broadcast-db2-discover. http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q3/415 [Daniel
Miller]
o Cache dnet names not found on Windows when enumerating interfaces in the
Windows Registry. Reduces startup times. [Elon Natovich]
o [NSE] Make smb-ls able to leverage results from smb-enum-shares or list of
shares specified on command line. [Pierre Lalet]
o [NSE] Fix X509 cert date parsing for dates after 2049. Reported by Teppo
Turtiainen. [Daniel Miller]
o Handle a bunch of socket errors that can result from odd ICMP Type 3
Destination Unreachable messages received during service scanning. The crash
reported was "Unexpected error in NSE_TYPE_READ callback. Error code: 92
(Protocol not available)" [Daniel Miller]
o Fixed a crash (NULL pointer dereference) in PortList::isTCPwrapped when using
-sV and -O on an unknown service not listed in nmap-services. [Pierre Lalet]
o Fixed a benign TOCTOU race between stat() and open() in mmapfile().
Reported by Camille Mougey. [Henri Doreau]
o Reduce CPU consumption when using nsock poll engine with no registered FD,
by actually calling Poll() for the time until timeout, instead of directly
returning zero and entering the loop again. [Henri Doreau]
o Change the URI for the fingerprint submitter to its new location at
https://nmap.org/cgi-bin/submit.cgi
o [NSE] Added a check for Cisco ASA version disclosure, CVE-2014-3398, to
http-enum in the 'security' category [Daniel Miller]
o Fixed a bug that caused Nmap to fail to find any network interface when a
Prism interface is in monitor mode. The fix was to define the
ARP_HRD_IEEE80211_PRISM header identifier in the libdnet-stripped code.
[Brad Johnson]
o Added a version probe for Tor. [David Fifield]
o [NSE] Add support to citrix-enum-apps-xml for reporting if Citrix
published applications in the list are enforcing/requiring the level
of ICA/session data encryption shown in the script result.
[Tom Sellers]
o [NSE] Updated our Wordpress plugin list to improve the
http-wordpress-enum NSE script. We can now detect 34,077 plugins,
up from 18,570. [Danila Poyarkov]
o [NSE] Add the signature algorithm that was used to sign the target port's
x509 certificate to the output of ssl-cert.nse [Tom Sellers]
o [NSE] Fixed a bug in the sslcert.lua library that was triggered against
certain services when version detection was used. [Tom Sellers]
o [NSE] vulns.Report:make_output() now generates XML structured output
reports automatically. [Paulino Calderon]
o [NSE] Add port.reason_ttl, host.reason, host.reason_ttl for use in scripts
[Jay Bosamiya]
o [NSE] If a version script is run by name, nmap.version_intensity() returns
the maximum value (9) for it [Jay Bosamiya]
o [NSE] shortport.version_port_or_service() takes an optional rarity parameter
now to run only when version intensity > rarity [Jay Bosamiya]
o [NSE] Added nmap.version_intensity() function so that NSE version scripts
can use the argument to --version-intensity (which can be overridden by the
script arg 'script-intensity') in order to decide whether to run or not
[Jay Bosamiya]
o Improve OS detection; If a port is detected to be 'tcpwrapped', then it will
not be used for OS detection. This helps in cases where a firewall might be
the port to be 'tcpwrapped' [Jay Bosamiya]
o [Zenmap] Reduce noise generated in Topology View due to anonymous
hops [Jay Bosamiya]
o Added option --exclude-ports to Nmap so that some ports can be excluded from
scanning (for example, due to policy) [Jay Bosamiya]
o [Zenmap] Catch the MemoryError caused in Zenmap due to large Nmap Output,
and display a more helpful error message [Jay Bosamiya]
o Catch badly named output files (such as those unintentionally caused by
"-oX -sV logfile.xml") [Jay Bosamiya]
o [Zenmap] Improved NmapParser to increase speed in opening scans. Large scans
now open in seconds instead of hours. [Jay Bosamiya]
o Modify the included libpcap configure script to disable certain unused
features: bluetooth, usb, usb-can, and dbus sniffing. Dbus support caused a
build problem on CentOS 6.5. [Daniel Miller]
o Updated the bundled libpcap from 1.2.1 to 1.5.3 [Jay Bosamiya]
o Correct the Target MAC Address in Nmap's ARP discovery to conform to what IP
stacks in currently popular operating systems use. [Jay Bosamiya]
o Fixed a bug which caused Nmap to be unable to have any runtime interaction
when called from sudo or from a shell script. [Jay Bosamiya]
o Improvements to whois-ip.nse: fix an unhandled error when a referred-to
response could not be understood; add a new pattern to recognise a
LACNIC "record not found" type of response and update the way ARIN is
queried. [jah]
Nmap 6.47 [2014-08-23]
o Integrated all of your IPv4 OS fingerprint submissions since June 2013
(2700+ of them). Added 366 fingerprints, bringing the new total to 4485.
Additions include Linux 3.10 - 3.14, iOS 7, OpenBSD 5.4 - 5.5, FreeBSD 9.2,
OS X 10.9, Android 4.3, and more. Many existing fingerprints were improved.
Highlights: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q3/325 [Daniel Miller]
o (Windows, RPMs) Upgraded the included OpenSSL to version 1.0.1i. [Daniel Miller]
o (Windows) Upgraded the included Python to version 2.7.8. [Daniel Miller]
o Removed the External Entity Declaration from the DOCTYPE in Nmap's XML. This
was added in 6.45, and resulted in trouble for Nmap XML parsers without
network access, as well as increased traffic to Nmap's servers. The doctype
is now:
<!DOCTYPE nmaprun>
o [Ndiff] Fixed the installation process on Windows, which was missing the
actual Ndiff Python module since we separated it from the driver script.
[Daniel Miller]
o [Ndiff] Fixed the ndiff.bat wrapper in the zipfile Windows distribution,
which was giving the error, "\Microsoft was unexpected at this time." See
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2524009 [Daniel Miller]
o [Zenmap] Fixed the Zenmap .dmg installer for OS X. Zenmap failed to launch,
producing this error:
Could not import the zenmapGUI.App module:
'dlopen(/Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/glib/_glib.so, 2):
Library not loaded: /Users/david/macports-10.5/lib/libffi.5.dylib\n
Referenced from:
/Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/glib/_glib.so\n
Reason: image not found'.
o [Ncat] Fixed SOCKS5 username/password authentication. The password length was
being written in the wrong place, so authentication could not succeed.
Reported with patch by Pierluigi Vittori.
o Avoid formatting NULL as "%s" when running nmap --iflist. GNU libc converts
this to the string "(null)", but it caused segfault on Solaris. [Daniel Miller]
o [Zenmap][Ndiff] Avoid crashing when users have the antiquated PyXML package
installed. Python tries to be nice and loads it when we import xml, but it
isn't compatible. Instead, we force Python to use the standard library xml
module. [Daniel Miller]
o Handle ICMP admin-prohibited messages when doing service version detection.
Crash reported by Nathan Stocks was: Unexpected error in NSE_TYPE_READ
callback. Error code: 101 (Network is unreachable) [David Fifield]
o [NSE] Fix a bug causing http.head to not honor redirects. [Patrik Karlsson]
o [Zenmap] Fix a bug in DiffViewer causing this crash:
TypeError: GtkTextBuffer.set_text() argument 1 must be string or read-only
buffer, not NmapParserSAX
Crash happened when trying to compare two scans within Zenmap. [Daniel Miller]
Nmap 6.46 [2014-04-18]
o [NSE] Made numerous improvements to ssl-heartbleed to provide
more reliable detection of the vulnerability.
o [Zenmap] Fixed a bug which caused this crash message:
IOError: [Errno socket error] [Errno 10060] A connection attempt failed
because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of
time, or established connection failed because connected host has
failed to
respond
The bug was caused by us adding a DOCTYPE definition to Nmap's XML
output which caused Python's XML parser to try and fetch the DTD
every time it parses an XML file. We now override that DTD-fetching
behavior. [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Fix some bugs which could cause snmp-ios-config and
snmp-sysdescr scripts to crash
(http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q2/120) [Patrik Karlsson]
o [NSE] Improved performance of citrix.lua library when handling large XML
responses containing application lists. [Tom Sellers]
Nmap 6.45 [2014-04-11]
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 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 Fixed some syntax problems in nmap-os-db that were caused by some automated
merging of fingerprints (http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2013/q4/68) [Daniel
Miller]
o New service probes and fingerprints for Quake1, TeamSpeak3, xmlsysd,
Freelancer game server, All-Seeing Eye, AndroMouse, and AirHD.
o Update included WinPcap to version 4.1.3 [Rob Nicholls]
o [NSE] Convert many more scripts to emit structured XML output
(https://nmap.org/book/nse-api.html#nse-structured-output) [Daniel Miller]
o [NSE] Added 24 NSE scripts from 12 authors, bringing the total up to 470.
They are all listed at https://nmap.org/nsedoc/, and the summaries are
below (authors are listed in brackets):
