# Nmap Changelog ($Id$); -*-text-*-
|
||||
|
||||
4.22SOC6
|
||||
|
||||
o Included David's major massping migration project. The same
|
||||
underlying engine is now uses for ping scanning as for port
|
||||
scanning. We hope this will lead to better performance and
|
||||
accuracy, as well as helping to de-bloat Nmap. Please test it out
|
||||
and report your results to nmap-dev! For more details, see
|
||||
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2007/q3/0277.html
|
||||
|
||||
o Fixed UMIT bug which occurred when installing to a non-standard
|
||||
directory (e.g. a home directory). This caused Python to not be able
|
||||
to find the necessary files. [Kris]
|
||||
|
||||
o Added an NSE script (HTTPpasswd.nse) for finding directory traversal
|
||||
problems and /etc/password files on web servers. [Kris]
|
||||
|
||||
o Removed win_dependencies cruft from UMIT directory. [Kris]
|
||||
|
||||
o Upgraded libpcap from version 0.9.4 to 0.9.7 [Kris]
|
||||
|
||||
o Removed the effectively empty XML elements for traceroute hops which
|
||||
timed out. [Eddie]
|
||||
|
||||
o Fixed (I hope) a problem with running Nmap on Mac OS X machines with
|
||||
VMWare Fusion running. The error message started with:
|
||||
"getinterfaces: Failed to open ethernet interface (vmnet8). A
|
||||
possible cause on BSD operating systems is running out of BPF
|
||||
devices ...." For more details, see
|
||||
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2007/q3/0254.html.
|
||||
|
||||
o Check that --script arguments are reasonable when Nmap starts rather
|
||||
than potentially waiting for a bunch of port scanning to finish
|
||||
first. [Stoiko]
|
||||
|
||||
o Fixed (we hope) a UMIT problem which resulted in the error message:
|
||||
"NameError: global name 'S_IRUSR' is not defined". [Adriano]
|
||||
|
||||
o Removed an error message which used to appear when you quit UMIT on
|
||||
Windows. The message used to say "Errors occurred - See the logfile
|
||||
[filename] for details." [Adriano]
|
||||
|
||||
o Fix permissions on files installed by Umit so that it should work
|
||||
even if you do 'make install' from an account with a 077 umask.
|
||||
|
||||
o Add a feature to Umit that lets you search your unsaved
|
||||
scans. [Eddie]
|
||||
|
||||
o Added back a previously removed feature which allows you to specify
|
||||
'rnd' as one of your decoys (-D option) to let Nmap choose a random
|
||||
IP. You also use a format such as rnd:5 to generate five random
|
||||
decoys. [Kris]
|
||||
|
||||
o Reference guide (man page) updates to the NSE section, and some
|
||||
general cleanup.
|
||||
|
||||
o When Nmap finishes, it now says "Nmap done" rather than "Nmap run
|
||||
completed". No need to waste pixels on excess verbiage.
|
||||
|
||||
4.22SOC5
|
||||
|
||||
o The Windows installer should actually install UMIT properly now.
